2014 será o ano do DCS ?

[=FN=Fluidman]

Olá Amigos,

Parece que o projeto do DCS World, que seria de ser uma base para multiplas simulações começa a ganhar fôlego para o próximo ano. Muitas aeronaves que estavam em desenvolvimento começam a mostrar o trabalho.

Cockpit do Mig-21Bis  (http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=116484) :







Cockpit DCS : Hawk  (http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=89722) :





Sons em desenvolvimento do  AV8B (http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=116481) :



T2 Buckye :



F15E Strike Eagle :






Todos acima são feitos por terceiros e ainda temos o DCS WWII que adicionará pelo menos um mapa bem interssante.

Existem ainda os que estão sendo feitos pela própria ED ou ela está melhorando. Abaixo segue um roadmap (não oficial) que está postado no fórum da ED e nós dá uma idéia do que está vindo.

....

Minha impressão é que com o Edge para atualizar os gráficos e permitir novos mapas, me parece que fica faltando somente uma boa campanha dinâmica ou um (AI Director) para se tornar um excelente simulador. 

Acredito também que será muito legal conectar em servidores onde hajam pilotos voando com todas estas aeronaves. Estou bastante animado, este hiato para melhorar a base (DCS World Edge) me parece ser um grande passo na direção correta.

Cara,

Muito bacana, também fiquei animado!

Espero que rode sem problema na minha máquina, espero!!
