BMS F18 A and C upgrade - community involvement
-
The only issue that i see with seven G is they have no plans to open the doors with a working multiplayer option (sevenG confirmed so far) thats going to be a big negative for the VFS that watn to run it.
It does look VERY pretty though
No multiplayer is a no-no for me, I wouldn’t buy it.

Agreed which is why it strikes me as strange, i mean those guys have to know what waits for them if they dont open a multiplayer functional sim. Another thing that strike me strange is the way the wingmen operate in some of the you tubes they have put up, they sure look like their human pilots but hey computers can do pretty impressive things these days.
Maybe thier just holding the MP stuff in thier back pocket for now, but im with you no MP isnt getting any cash outta this guy

Just to add to that… Even if they did a multiplayer a lot of pilots will still want what only Falcon4 can offer… a dynamic campaign. There are plenty of members here who after a few months of flying other sims have come back to F4(BMS)… I believe until another sim comes out with a multiplayer / dynamic campaign then F4 will continue to rule the roost.

Isn’t Seven-G going to be free, or did I miss something somewhere?

Hi I am going to ask a question to all you hornet people here. This is a VERY genuine and honest question as I would really like to know the way you guys think Aren’t you bothered by the fact that you are flying an f-16 gift wrapped as a Hornet? I have been with this sim for 5 years and BMS installs for 2.5 or so (through 87th) and have tried M2000s, F-18s or F-15s but the moment I step in the pit I am NEVER ever satisfied with the fact that it is after all not a Hornet (neither FM nor the avionics) and that psychological fact ruins it for me. How do you guys cope up with it? (I am assume most of you are realism nuts like me) otherwise this does not apply.
I am a die-hard Eagle fan but every time I try to get it off the runway… something is missing and that is it is not even close to an F-15 (avionics / FM) so I stick with viper. Forget getting it up in the air. Just one look at the Viper hud in place of F-15 ruins it for me.
Maybe you guys use some mind trick with flying Hornets that I can use to enjoy the Eagle? Please do share if there is one or more
Just curiously interested
P.S. I am not saying that BMS should develop those other planes more. I understand what is. Rather the other way around. I would easily exchange ALL of flyable planes in BMS for an F-16A avionics any day

… that’s why I do (personally) fly F-16 ONLY, since BMS is (still for the moment) an F-16 sim ;).
If would fly an A-10, I would buy DCS A-10.
For sure, guys searching for max realism do not have the choice …. it is F-16.
But maybe, one day, F-18 could be better implemented… unfortunately, even if avionics could fit one day with the real thing, FLCS will remain F-16. (unless we found more info, and MavJP redo all its great work) … IMO, need at least several years more…

Take care about what you are saying mate! Remember your statements about BMS on F.L.A.R.E. blog …
There were abot 0 info about BMS4. About 7G there were regular updates. After about half decade develpoment F/A-18C is not functional. What about dozens of other AC and vehicles what is required? What about AI, theater (map), campaign system, weapon modeling, etc. I do not expect to get someting playable.

Isn’t SevenG an F/A-18C simulator? I saw JHMCS and I presume an AIM-9X in that video. Or was it more like the AIM-132 ASRAAM?
-
Funny, I was under the impression this model would have it’s own flight model separate from the F-16. Is that not the case?
Cheers…

Gent’s,
I need to know if the new BUG will be fully ramp startable from the pit???
If not,then I’ll have to make some adjustment’s to Guam HvH\PvP MP Scenario.
(Gotta’ keep it somewhat fair)TIA,

It has it’s own flight model but the FLCS is the f-16s
Ah, ok so basically, avionics and the way you operate the aircraft will be F-16 ones but the FM will be new for the aircraft. Cool. That’s a very good improvement already
Cheers…

All similar project never be finished. Why? Because creating for 0 a flight sim as a hobby is not possible. There is not enogh time to do it. Just check Fighter Ops…
Fighter Ops only took money from the naive who wanted the title “cool kid”. Seven G has already released a Beta and is working on its final release for some time this year/early next year (per their faq) contrary to your absolute statement. It seems Seven G is getting pretty close to proving you dead wrong.
Still, putting the two on the same plateau is grossly unfair.
To me, the only thing good about Fighter Ops is the result of research/work done by former developers that may or may not be helping with this sim.

Yes-current F/A-18Cs have that capability-that sim is looking good! and I’m a Tomcat guy lol.

To be honest…no, not really. I mean i am a cat guy, and a decade and a half ago it became quite clear to me that no turkey sim will ever come out. At least not one with the level of detail like the old fleet defender. And add to that the fact that i like comparing different ACs…so i am a proponent of a joint platform, that would unite at least a dozen planes. Now, i may never have my cat the way i want it, but at least i’ll have some of it

New TRACK IR integration:
HUD “target radar diamond” is really well made!!!
Nice! Is that a different sim or BMS?

@Tronald:

It says Seven-G on the video.

just a thought guys…
(to the BMS team)
Do you guys plan to impliment the “shaking” within the cockpit when the aircraft is under high g’s. Nice effect that.
I am going to say something stupid now - but I would have thought it wouldn’t be too hard to include?
just watched that video above and saw it in action there and its in freefalcon too.
would be REALLY nice.
(no doubt one of a million requests!!!)
