The present future of Falcon.
-
Good morning to you all, Gentlemen.
Well. Leet’s try to keep a long speech short here, if I can. Hope I will succeed.
It’s a little time I’m wondering why Falcon is still after a so long period of time it appeared of the flight sims’ scene - 20 years couldn’t be called nuts, I mean.
What I noticed what the choices made in the progress of time have been.
I have concluded there are two different, but related at the same time, ways currently going.
The first one is about enhancing the flight model of the plane and the simulation’s engine in theirselves, for the realism’s sake.
Dee-Jay and I-Hawk made also in the recent past, as they’re still making though nowadays, more than some or occasional statements about, if I’m not getting wrong the real sense of their speech of course.
But it’s the second matter that caught my attention. It’s about making theaters, i.e. it’s taking advantage of the chance of choosing ‘where’ the action is.
It is not a trivial topic this, to me, here’s why I’m pointing it at.
If done that by intention or not, all the theater devs. here made more than interesting choices about, choosing the most appealing zones in the planet from a strict geopolitical point of view, and where the balance of power was at risk of been jeopardized also in the past in real life. Let’s think to Korea, Balkans, Middle East, Far East, Europe…. and what do we have here?
Korea, Balkans, EMF, Iberia (or POH, if you like it more ), ITO, Kuwait (Iran’s most sensitive areas included), Northern Europe, Kurile… and someone other I’m not currently authorized to unveil by now. Or not, better, you’ll see it soon.
I’m still missing Panama and Nevada to call me satisified in full, but it’s only a matter of time - or so I’m wishing me to.
Panama, because its strategical meaning of being a passage from an ocean to another. Nevada, because what it still means for being the most famous training (? What? Wrong! It’s simulating this too, matey) area in the world, with its ‘Flag’ exercises of any kind - and something other interesting too from a strict strategical point of view, if only you please to give a closer look, I mean.
And we would have Alaska too, who knows…
But anyway it goes, even if things would be keeping so, I have got here one more aspect of the realism’s sake in simulating, the essential feature of Falcon: a close attention to what’s really relevant in a military and war action.
And that’s just what I’ll try to second with the little I can about. But at the same time it’s still what makes the difference with Falcon: we are here to simulate. From all the possibile aspects.
If not, we should have been making childs’ plays only. And you know well what I mean here, I guess… no controversy or criticism intended, let me be adamant on this.(I’m not am English native speaker/writer, so please all be kind and supportive with me this time too)
With best regards to all, and long live Falcon most of all.

Not sure what you mean in the end, but I’m with you.

Well, of course, dear Lorik.
As I’m an Italian guy, and so on… :lol:
With best regards.

Whatever the OP said I agree with… 100%.
