[evo] dan 79 Posted February 9, 2012 Might be good for training on gunships ready for A3. Might consider buying it when it comes out/I get some money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.kju 3244 Posted February 9, 2012 Improved Weapons Systems - Enhanced targeting of guided missiles. This sounds interesting. Hope we see improvement over the simple tab lock system. Manual guidance by the gunner is the way to go! The Hind is certainly an excellent addition - personally I like to see TKOH open up to non Civilian gameplay. But remember the game is so flexible to support both / many different ways to play it alongside just fine. Our team's pilot likes to do EVAC or HOT insert missions most. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

samb 15 Posted February 9, 2012 Gonna buy it so we get more DLC. BiS- how about Huey, and SAR: Medevac'ish campain?:D SamB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jibemorel 10 Posted February 9, 2012 Please BIS stick in the Takistan or preferably Chernarus map for those who don't have Arma, it's smaller + more place to hi(n)de then better for adversarial scenarios. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nodunit 397 Posted February 9, 2012 Depends on how detailed the cockpit is and what you can do with it, if for example Mi-24 weapon and visual systems are controlled by clicking switches in the cockpit and Mi-35 is done via MPD button, and the visual systems would be displayed in said screens then I'd have no issue forking over 20 someodd for that and a new weapon system plus the ability to turn what was for the most part a civilian game into a more military game. Furthermore they released tools for us to add out own into TKOH before announcing this DLC so I'm more encouraged rather than feeling as though they would be denying modidng in order to squeeze the DLC savings. That said however technicly we have not yet seen these and as such I'll be waiting for purchase until we get some examples of how things look or behave with this.

sabre4809 0 Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) SUPERHIND!, wow nice job BIS it looks good, finally a hind with a decent cannon. Those are INGWE missiles on there aswell . Awesome even if the name is wrong, its just Superhind MkII, III, IV or V. Or Mi-24 Superhind, since most of them come from Mi-24s. Algeria and Azerbaijan are the only operators I know of. This sounds interesting. Hope we see improvement over the simple tab lock system.Manual guidance by the gunner is the way to go! Well don't all Russian Hinds use SACLOS weapons which are commanded properly by gunner in Arma already(non-tab). For the Superhind, the INGWE is a SACLOS beam riding missile so should be no huge diff there. BUT they could give it the Mokopa, which is LOAL, LOBL with either Semi active laser, or Radar, or Imaging Infrared(So a like Hellfire and Javelin). It is also capable of using Hellfires aswell anyway. So maybe its in there. Edited February 9, 2012 by SAbre4809 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[evo] dan 79 Posted February 9, 2012 Quick question will the DLC's work like the arma dlc's. I.e. where everyone starts with low detail textures but if they buy the dlc they get the full rez ones? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nodunit 397 Posted February 10, 2012 Doubt it, afterall the DLC for A2 could be considered 'just more units' with a few patch fixes whereas this would be transforming adding a whole new system and game type to TKOH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4 IN 1 0 Posted February 10, 2012 Here is the problem though: while civil airframe is good without all the fancy avionics, without a proper avionic simulation, I don't think this good enough for a combat airframe:raisebrow: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msy 22 Posted February 10, 2012 I want to ask a question: Will twin-engine helicopter show its advantage over single engine one? For example, can the game express the effect that the twin-engine helicopter can still fly for a while when one of its engines is damaged? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derbysieger 11 Posted February 10, 2012 I'm excited. Definately getting this! @msy: You can fly the med and heavy heli with only one engine running so I assume yes (you can't really lift anything though). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
