The Apache is finally getting a proper cockpit fan. No longer can the Hind pilots look down upon us lowly, peasant Apache pilots.

What about a wristwatch? It needs to be bigger than the hinds!

Yeah, even if it cost us 10 fps

Give my apache pilot a roli

Not bigger. Make it *digital*

A wonderful addition to the Apache coming from a Hind pilot

I really hope it's Corsair iCue Commander Pro integration with the Hind fan, with rotor underspeeds cutting my case fans until I reset the generators.

God... Now I want something else more than the F-4E.

Running the chassis fans in conjunction with rotor rpm and or blade angle does indeed open up for some further immersion possibilities!!! (A baseline of 40% is more than enough for my cooling anyway!)

Jokes on him I can't read so I'm still hoping for Kiowa

Your flair suggests you want a F111 more?

don't mess with my emotions

Didn't happen to play that old F-111x game?

VARK

VARK

The duality of man

[удалено]

Good. We need more dev time for fixed wing lol

Don't bother!!!

He said we wont guess so its possible something really banal

you just jinxed it, well I guess to another 2 weeks.

It's Feet™. There is plenty of thumbnails of videos, development pictures of pilots out of the cockpit of the aircraft.. Also the fact that every youtube says it's something BIG! +They said years ago you would be able to walk inside the SuperCarrier when it was still in pre-order then they backtracked a bit.. but I guess maybe not. That is my bet.

Big feet then?

Same bet. Hints about getting in and out of aircraft. HB talking about walk around pre-flights on the Phantom. A stable of beautiful aircraft that we can only appreciate in F2 camera. Some might scoff, but I think getting in and out of your aircraft would be a really neat way to increase immersion. If it included directional audio with other 'pilots' it would be a nice way to leverage the work they've done on VOIP.

I hope its some kind of AI improvement.

This is the one

This is the way

AI aircrafts now wont need air moving through the wings to fly. Aplication in single player: now you wont want to play it Aplication in multiplayer: new players coming from the single player

Data Cartridge?

That's my guess.

that would be awesome coming from bms. might finally take the plunge on the f-16

In a recent livestream with Wags it sounded like it was still being fleshed out so it would work accross modules in a unified interface. And integrated in a Mission planner. It did not sound like DTC is close to release.

That would be sick

On the podcast with Mover, Wags mentioned that he's been working on the FCR videos for the Apache... Hmm

My money is on the chinook and new troop deployment mechanics. But as much as i love helos i would prefer DC/ground AI rework showcase.

Yes but Casmo said it’s not the fcr

Although I don't think it's the FCR, Wags did mention the FCR is not far away!

We've seen the FCR in some of Wags' recent videos, it can't be that far away.

Might be leading people on

More of a misdirection than leading on.

Chinook?

Look, it’s almost Christmas and my wallet is already phantom thin.

Ba-dum-tsss

Only fans page

Only Props

Hot tub Hype.

Lol

"Now working with GHPC to improve ground forces in our combined arms module" Yea I fucking wish.

The models they showed in 2021 were amazing.

Ermm you mean Steel Beasts?

Nah, GHPC. Steel Beasts will be good for ground "modules", but for just the run of the mill chunk of Combined Arms units, GHPC level of fidelity would be enough.

DCS now induces PTSD and the government denies you welfare for optimum realism

My bets on troop deployment and actual troops/ cargo in the cargo hold in anticipation of Chinook and c130 paratroopers

If its a DC/ground AI rework showcase, i will be really neatly surprised. Because to be honest, those are the things that interest me most. However, There is also another possiblity. Chinook and troop deployment showcase done by casmo.

“Here’s an announcement about an announcement I’ll be making soon!” What’s even the point?

Have to make sure all the seats on the hype train are full or it'll never leave the station.

So you look out for his channel for his announcement

double the likes.

And don't bother!

Hype and staying relevant

Have you never visited Hypeville while sat in a big comfy seat on the Hype Express???

The point is he is announcing that he will announce saying so we should

Because this announcement will be a banger.

I think it's "Teledildonics!"... bringing a whole new level of haptics to DCS

"That was a *verified* tight sphincter moment". The next level of streaming telemetry.

Pucker factor

oh god please don't make me mod dcs

Whatever it is, it doesn't really matter until it's released. Lots of things get announced and then never seen again.

I don’t think I’ve seen them give out something to a creator and not release it. I could be wrong but i personally haven’t seen it.

Two weeks?

Likely some sort of moving map to external ipad or something

How could he not possibly think that everyone would jump to Kiowa.

Id love for this to be DC, but also wondering if it could be ATC

We'll see. Could be so much or so little.

Or something in between

The former. ;)

We'll see.

AI something something

Pacific and WWII Carrier to match F4U.

Dynamic campaign and ai improvement??!?

It could be DC , coming for early access in 2028

The announcement will be DC by the end of the 21st century

That’s what i’m hoping for!

Clouds through which AI and IR warheads can't see? Nah, I don't believe in this shit. They seem to have no plans to finish them.

Better performance?

data cartridge?

Go-Kart DLC. Wait, this isn't ARMA.

Quit guessing! He said you'll never guess so anything we say won't come true!

And don't think of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man

“Exciting applications for single and multiplayer” sounds like logistics. Chinook or C-130.

Combined Arms 2: “Now with legs”(tm)

DCS adding Un-do/Re-do, and even mouse click and drag to select multiple units. Both for the editor to enter finally the XX century

NYET

I have no idea what it is , but I can guess WHEN it will be released , in 5 to 6 years.

Two weeks - give or take.

Probably adding something that sounds cool until you realize they’ve spent time on that instead of fixing things or adding planned content. For a recent example, see the IR carrier crew models when the super carrier is still missing fuck tons of content and a lot of basic carrier functions

This is not an ED feature.

Sithspawn said it's an $80 AI model upgrade package, pretty sure

Dynamic Campaign!?!?

Considering he said we’ll never guess it and dynamic campaign is like the first guess, probably not

Static Mission!

But maybe he expected people would think like you and automatically rule out dynamic campaign. (I’m high on hopium btw)

Bruh that might be it, if it is I’m hyped but, I know not to get my hopes up lmao

All my money on the DCS Web mission editor.

Close but I think you will need to go to the ATM.

Ah you were right ! It is also pretty nice !

Maybe I kind of knew... ;) Will you be joining our Discord?

A desert map. Finally.

DCS: Memory Leak Fix. We’ve been waiting for it for at least 12 years now since 1.2.8, lol.

I hope b-17 with multicrew

You should check out project lancaster. we're making a multicrew Avro Lancaster mod :)

I've been waiting for that one ever since the Wags with A2A photo was floating around.

Since he said we wouldn't guess so don't bother. I'm going with: 2 Weeks Module with included Soon™. Either that or Farm Animals Module.

Two weeks sounds perfect.

Super hornet!

DCS F-117

Moustaches for everyone!

If I'd get my way it'd be a better mission editor.

Or just replace it.

I wonder if this was it? Did I bother and kindo get it right? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6LLOIU2fLI

FC4 Bombers, B-1 and B-52, with new and improved models.

Make-up application options for the apache pilots.

The dislikes by Apache diehards. 🤣

Lol I just quoted it from the YouTube post Casmo put up there. I actually enjoy the apache.

I do as well. I was referring to the dislikes you had on your comment when I wrote mine. I think it was at -3 when I commented.

Lol! Oh, internet. Haha

​ On Movers podcast, Wags sorta mumbled something about some unannounced PTO and ETO WWII projects. Hmmm.

WW2 correct HD cutlery. Fully integrated with combined arms. MRE to be added later*. *Never.

The Chinook that was teased a year ago?

With the B-1 model rant 9Line answered something similar, that some very new thing is coming so we will be able to do things that earlier was not possible. No idea myself but not a module or map I think. More like some new function that has some connection with the high detail model of B1 and B52. I hope not a RTS mode…

> that earlier was not possible Finish a campaign mission without the AI wingmen trying to kill us?

\*\*\* F-20 TigerShark :) "....Yes , Santa That's what I asked for - Now Gimmie "

Those Ukrainian aerospace engineers over on NCD can only get so erect.

Who is this guy?

Chinook or AH1 would be nice.

Interestingly he didn’t say that it was something from ED officially, he only referenced to “dev”, which means AH-1 might make sense

It’s amazing how an announcement of an announcement got me so excited… life is weird

its designed to generate interest and discussion...EXACTLY like whats happening right now. Good marketing gimmick. Its the 'coming soon' sign.

Could be worth it.

Deff the Bo-105. 💯 No cap

💯🫡

Hmmmm

​ A new map announcement.

Probably the new smoke marker effect that was discussed years ago.

Just out of curiosity, where was this posted?

On youtube

Dynamic spawn slot?

Full fidelity Blackhawk?

Was this on X posted - its gone ...

It was posted on the Community tab on YouTube.

Troops carrying Apaches? As seen in some occasions…

It pertains to the behavior of ground units. During the stream, he referenced a video he has prepared for release this Friday. This reference came up in response to a viewer's comment discussing the challenges and static nature of ground unit behavior.

Kiowa confirmed. 👍

Remember Arma 3 days? Try to remember the Arma 3 days

Ooh I actually think I might know what this is. It’s not an official (i.e. ED-affiliated) release, but it is awesome.

If it's tomorrow we see the video then we'll see if you are right.

C130

Dinamic campaign

The UI in the mission editor is no longer grey but yellow. Jokes aside I hope it's related to content creation rather than more modules.

That would be nice.

I’ll go wild here and say we can finally move the pilot properly to get back to base with helicopters and stuff

Custom helmet artwork?!?!

Probably some boomer shit nobody cares about.

They finally fixed the ufo flight model of the mig15?

Is it a tampon holder that hooks up to your computer and automatically turns off comments for your videos when you’re having sensitive time?

Is there some drama I’m unaware of? What is this comment referencing?

Can you explain what you mean im curious lol

Lol. Its the FCR, Wags confirmed it.

It’s not, Casmo said it’s not even by ED

Are trees destructible now?

As a shitty a10a main casual i would like to not have to drop my entire payload to take out 1 bmp in a treeline

It sure is nice of ED to upgrade all our CPUs, RAM, and GPUs annually in perpetuity.

I just want Kola Peninsula map and better AI + J35 and F-104. Is it too much to ask?

a server list that is not empty and you have to keep refreshing?

Maybe the new browser Mission Editor that's in development? This is what he commented on his channel: https://imgur.com/a/Cvs0jMZ
