DCS 2022 Predictions?

Was more thinking that it would be in the 2022 and beyond video.

Anyway I’m probably only joking…
But imagine a Tornado, for real, as next surprise module.

I mean, that would be insane. No?


Edit: I mean, the F-4 was kind of announced, it will happen but much later. There’s one surprise module still unannounced: I think that’s the Tornado.
It almost makes sense.

And I’m hoping for a year of working on performance, AI and assets. Roughly in that order.

Maybe the dynamic campaign will make the video?

This^^^…and don’t forget better, more realistic ATC for all airports. Maybe, like we have for the supercarrier with the animated deck crew we can eventually get animated ground crew at the airports. Civillian AI air traffic so we can make it harder for players to actually use IFF and know what they are shooting at. I know, I’m dreaming. :slight_smile:

Please please please let @komemiute be correct and we get a Tornado next

I’d be happy with a simple key command to turn on runway/carrier landing lights.

Not a prediction, but a wish.

I’m pining for the fjords. Please a Scandinavian theater! I have such fond memories of EF2000.

I know we’re getting Falklands at some point, but a new theater would be nice. But I’m torn with that because the existing theaters still need work and optimisation, and preferably a bit of extension towards the edges.

I’ll take any new fast jet, and I’ve been very impressed with their WWII modules recently… but we need some Cold War western jets! Having cold war servers where the west is mostly represented by the F-5E is a bit odd. So what plane?

Phantom, Mirage III, F-100, Hunter, Lightning, Jaguar, earlier Harrier, G.91, F-104G… there are so many to choose from (and I’m sure I omitted some people’s favorites there). As some of you have said, they (former Belsimtek) were working on the Phantom, so that seems like the logical pick to satisfy my personal wants for the sim.

Scuttlebutt is that it’s not about the place, but the plane on that exact spot (a herc if I’m not mistaken)

The other hint in the static is a gunsight that very much looks like the one on a phantom.

Edit: I just had another look, and it’s pointing at the closed runway. Still closest planes are a bunch of hercs and intriguingly a prowler… 34.948197589008, 69.26186394585575

There was a lot of love for the MudHen, and a lot of shots of the Intruder … maybe the prowler is a hint there? What did the Intruder gunsight look like?

I was excited by the quick shots of the Eiffel Tower and Big Ben. It would be nice to have London and Paris properly on the maps.

Word on the street is Ugra are adding both London and Paris to their Normandy map as they expand that one. Pretty nice, ne c’est pas?
