Whats the Best Hornet?

With time everything comes.
Not in this case.
Someone is going to have to prove to me that Falcon is not a dead end.
Secret Squirrel random updates don’t cut it anymore.
Isn’t it strange - I read Carlos’ post as a subliminal “there will be a be-all-and-end-all F-16 in DCS one day” - anyway…
Falcon, if by that you mean BMS Falcon, is by far and away NOT a dead end. BMS philosophy is not to openly market their material, and to release it when it’s ready. Given BMS and DCS operate in two different spectrums, it is entirely acceptable (IMHO) they work this way - they have nothing to sell and as such do not need to hype their product. DCS on the other hand rely entirely on hype to market theirs. All that said, DCS could actually learn something from their approach, especially the second part.
I’ve seen the future - it is going to blow everything DCS has to offer out of the park. Patience, and belief, is all that’s required.

You know what I don’t get about your posts and posting style? It feels like, for some reason, you WANT Falcon to die. Is it true?
You said once on another forum that “BMS will die because it’s an Elitistic group”, or something like that (I won’t bother looking for the exact post on Falcon online, but that was the spirit of it).
So, in the spirit of that post, I would like to ask you this:
Did we EVER do anything wrong to you that you hate us or our product so much? So much that you actually wish it to die? If yes then I would like to know what’s that? If no then why you keep throwing these arrows everywhere?It’s funny to read your comments about F-18 DCS, it’s like you are waving it in front of everyone here. And I ask you, what’s the point of that? What do you expect to get out of it? Do you want to justify your saying above? Like the “I told you it won’t hold” ? Just like you are saying on this very thread?
Is it the way we do things? Is it because we didn’t do a dedicated Hornet? Do you think you know better than us what is doable and what is less doable, and where to put our efforts? I honestly don’t get it. Maybe you can elaborate?
And, in case you want to take “points” of this post. I tell you this:
We See what DCS are doing
We don’t care
We will keep developing Falcon even if we will be the only ones to fly it - It’s our product and we like it the way it is
DCS can do dynamic campaign
DCS can do F-16C
We don’t care…DCS will never be like BMS

I can 100% understand his love for the Hornet because: Mower and F-18 fit so well together.

… :nosep:You said once on another forum that “BMS will die because it’s an Elitistic group”, or something like that (I won’t bother looking for the exact post on Falcon online, but that was the spirit of it).
Correct: http://falcon-online.org/forum/index.php?topic=2418.msg27958#msg27958
[@Mower:I have pointed this out repeatedly in the past on the BMS forums to no avail.
At its heart, BMS Crew is a closed elitist group who scorn outsiders.
And this is why it will die.](http://falcon-online.org/forum/index.php?topic=2418.msg27958#msg27958)
… I won’t bother to list all the people from the Public forum that have been integrated to the team because they have the spirit and the talent, more than than just having a mouth.
Personally, I do not care what he think. I just wonder what he is still doing here rather than enjoying and focusing on his F-18? “Frequency occupation” maybe? … I do not know!?

Couldn’t have found a more perfect video for this thread if I tried.

Mower crossed a line.
Mower was offensive.
Mower is silly.
Mower is not perfect.
Mower apologizes.
…and I will patiently await proof I am factually incorrect.

Well Mower and this goes for all.
One doesn’t actually know what the other is actually doing.
Mo doesn’t know what BMS is actually doing or how it works. On the other hand users ask and demand things from BMS whith an attitude of talking or requesting from a company.
None is wrong none is fault.
BMS as a company does sets a Target and goes that way.
There difference is a company has money and arranges to get the resources to fulfill those targets. BMS on the other hand has no money thus no such access on such resources. Also with fear of having lose of control over the code the dev team must be selected very strictly and with criteria that some time we might not be able to understand.
Beta team of BMS is big and as rumored or speculated some xxx people. Working under the radar wasting their free time for the greater cause.
Maybe it’s not that strict as a company would or as if BMS would like it to be but for xx years now it’s working fine.
DCS obviously had issues, serious issues unless they wouldn’t start with those open alpha and pre releases.Pushing things is what we always do, we the users. We are selfish egger beasts like kids wanting more and we are never satisfied.
This is super good.
Why it’s good?
Cause we see great value and potential in BMS. Some times we get stack on our needs and it goes to personal and this hurts feelings. You (BMS) do things in a manner we think everything is easy and go, oh come on u didn’t do this. Dcs (or others) did it we want it also.
So let’s all keep the ball down and control our passion to a level that doesn’t irritate the other end.Στάλθηκε από το MI 5 μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk

What is the best F-18 simulator? VRS SUPER BUG; DCS F-18, BMS F-18? VRS SUPER BUG IMHO.
What can be the most beautiful F-18 simulator? VRS SUPER BUG; DCS F-18? DCS F-18 IMHO.
What is the air combat simulator? There is only one alternative, BMS. The rest does not even consider competition.
No more, no less.

Better or worse…
As a prospective buyer, im just curious what do you do with hornet in dcs once you learn the systems and landing-take off? If ed arent planning to change the engine, the maps will stay small and the number of objects limited, not to mention any dynamic campaign or war simulation. So what do you do with a possibly amazing (in future) dcs hornet?
Not being sarcastic, genuine interest. -
Maps aren’t small, 3 exist now with more on the way.
Nevada map is huge, with many airfields. PG quite large as well.
Grafix are excellent, much better at suspending disbelief.
What do you do? Go see on you tube.
Surely there is an argument to be made by some, depending on situation, for moving from BmS to the dcs Bug.
Ask the 1st Vfw for instance.
keep in mind for me that I have always loved the Hornet but only liked the Viper.
So you must take my obnoxious opines in that context.

Maps aren’t small,
Are you kidding Mower!?
Let me remind you that Korea is 550 x 550NM … and most BMS users think it is already too small. Ok … now:
- Georgia: about 300 x 400Nm
- Nevada : a training environment of 200 x 200Nm , one big city, almost 100% of sand and you won’t have naval ops on Nevada.
- Straight Of Hormuz : approx 210 x 210Nm … 50% sand, 50% water … thee cities.
… no need to talk about Normandy : (140 x 190Nm) …
DCS F-18 is currently very nice for Dog-Fighters who likes the blue sky and for whom an AIM-9 and a cannon is enough.

I’m out.
I have nothing to gain by debating.

Wow 200x200 is REALLY small… I wonder why they did it that small, heightmap don’t cut it (I don’t think their terrain goes much higher res than say 60/90 meters), and it must be related to the scenery, as different theaters have different size… Is it the OSM data size? Although I don’t think it should be that large if held in proper binary format… Interesting.

Damn, I wonder why the dcs team hasn’t make any f-16 yet, Their planes collection is just as wide as the planes in BMS, I’d love a superhq pit a 4k pictures that dcs always bring

I think that it is clear that people that don’t share the same approach of a combat simulator can not understand each other.

Answer to that question is obvious
The smaller you do the quicker you go to market
The smaller you do the more money you can do given a limited earth size

I REALLY didn’t thought about that aspect
That’s being damn greedy…

… Yet it requires a minimum of 16Go RAM (recommended is 32Go).

WTF??? For what??? Even if they hold 30m resolution heightmap data (Which I doubt they do, according to the terrain resolution in their vids), still for a 200x200 NM that will be less than 1GB. Where goes another 10-15GB ? Art textures are mostly loaded to GPU VRAM and don’t duplicate in RAM unless you really have a small memory card (Which is probably not the case for most DCS flyers).
