DCS Carrier Module

[DD_Fenrir]

Was kind of indifferent to the concept when I first heard of it. A new payware carrier DLC? Meh, rather have new planes.

 

Then I saw this:

 

 

 

Damn you ED. My wallet is smarting already...

[Jabo]

Wow, I mean, I won't be getting it but wow.

And Motley Crue on the soundtrack as well - Kickstart My Heart indeed.

Hell the Music sold it LOL

Looking forward to spawn in on the Carrier, and see how those geesers will react to seeing an I-16 there ...

(And if I can't spawn in on the darn thing, I'll land on it!)

I'm leaving the F/A18 alone for now as I've got plenty of DCS to get my head round but a couple of questions - if anyone knows the answer - will this be compatible with the Tomcat and if you don't own it will you still be able to land on it in a multiplayer mission?

[Crash]

Yes to the Tomcat, no to landing

Quote from NineLine

So far the F-14 has been working very well with the SC in testing, both MP and SP, that said, there might be extra issues that need solving with it into Early Access. But it is much farther along then a month ago, for sure. Mostly its things like parking issues because of its size, or other size issues not seen with the smaller Hornet.

Hi all

We are planning an open beta update for the 20th of May which will include the super carrier.

Thank you for your patience

I bought it awhile back, when they offered it cheap since I already owned the F-18, now I just have to wait till its in the official game and not the beta thingy.

Did some setting up, as per Matt Wagner's Mission Creation video:

It's as long and involved as it sounds, but the results also appear to be the same.  It IS currently still Beta only.

Some DCS carrier love....

First the Hornet,

Then the Tomcat,

And because 2 Tomcats are better than 1....

 

They don't remind you to unfold your wings with the Tomcat unlike the Hornet, so best not to forget.....
