Nuclear Option is a fun game that is already good and it's very early in early access. I think the team has their head in the right place and I am keeping a close eye on this game. Check it out here: store.steampowered.com/app/2168680/Nuclear_Option/

Really been loving this game recently. It feels like such a satisfying middle ground between arcade and sim, and being able to do a large scale war in PVE/Solo is such a selling point. Haven’t played a ton of multiplayer yet.

The irony of a game that dosent have photorealistic graphics, or a plethora of points earning and spending on skills mechanics. I can just pick it up, and get into the meat of the game, and its the most fun ive had in years.

Very good stuff. My background is similar (Artist of many years, vehicle physics simulation of almost as many) but his project is even more ambitious than mine. If he could overcome the hurdles of learning to program and wrapped his head around all these system interactions, I can do it for the fraction of abundance of systems and complexity of art that I'm aiming for. Our philosophies are extremely similar and I can tell his is not borne from defeatism or inexperience but a relatively high level of insight into model tuning and systems implementation.

I've been playing Ace Combat since the 90's, War Thunder for 9 years and recently got into DCS. Nuclear Option has a great balance between realism and simplicity. I'm looking forward to see what B25Mitch comes up with in the near future. From playing War Thunder for so long, one thing I would suggest is to implement Mouse Aim and 3rd person camera, that's the main advantage that War Thunder has over every other air combat game, and one of the main things driving it's accessibility. If your goal is to make the game accessible, especially on PC, Mouse Aim flight is a great feature to have.

Unfortunately this absolute addiction on clickability and realism also plagues the community. People will shit on FC3 modules because they're too "simple" to fly and dont require trillions of switches to fly. Both have place in DCS and not every plane can be modeled to perfection without breaking some laws but adding an fc3 style version would bring so much to the gameplay

Notching a missile is on this point a game mechanic that everyone demands to work, despite Nuclear Option being a game in modern/future setting it is actually unrealisitc that notching works in that setting. Historically it actually worked only during 80-90s radar tech, it doesn't work today IRL. Granted it is a good mechanic for a game as a skill to work on, just that I feel like player base today demands it from all games with a childis argument of "it works in DCS so it has to be real".

Thanks for the interview. I would have liked to have some information on the arrival of Track Ir, as this is a missing feature. My friends don't play the game because of it. They prefer to wait until it's implemented. I can't wait for the dedicated server to be implemented, because I share your vision and would like to have a server that runs 24 hours a day.

From the settings menu it looks like Unity game, there is several games that already have head-tracking on this engine. Could it be possible to just trick it to work by porting some files from other game ? In these regards ubiquitousness of this engine pretty much guarantees what can be done in one game should be reproducible in the other. House of dying sun, frontier pilot sim, Flight of nova. From top of my mind that are unity and have the head tracking.

@Xenomorphine 7 ай бұрын

I do like it, but they really need to make the targeting more intuitive. There isn't any option to simply cycle through detected targets. You have to physically move the pilot's head to look dead on at something and select it. In the heat of combat, this is not exactly intuitive. It feels like this was due to it being developed with mouse and keyboard in mind, instead of HOTAS-centric. Combine a 'cycle through targets' command with a declutter/filtering command, so that you ONLY cycle through anti-air, tanks, planes, threats actively locking you up, etcetera, would make this a lot less micromanage-intensive and fun to fly. Lack of declutter is often annoying for accidentally targeting buildings when you don't have the appropriate weapons for them. This is really going to be a necessity if we're getting anti-radiation munitions. If they get around that, it's far more accessible than 'DCS' (like, overwhelmingly so; I'm still trying to figure out which commands even need mapping for that). Could easily add in water/submersible and ground units to use, too. Proper combined arms thing. ECM should be less cartoonish, too. It's depicted like a clock with a finite count-down. Why a time limitation? 'VTOL VR' would be almost perfect, but doesn't allow for HOTAS support (which would make it a DCS-killer product).

@adamgeigerjr6995 3 ай бұрын

its meant to be casual and dev even says so himself. he loves the idea of controller "pick up & play" accessibility ... personally love I don't need HOTAS to have a DCS lite experience

@Xenomorphine 3 ай бұрын

@@adamgeigerjr6995 I'm definitely not wanting it to be like DCS. DCS isnt' the least bit intuitive or accessible for most people. But I am asking it to be less intuitive and more functional. That isn't at odds with being intuitive or accessible. Like, why the countdown clock for electronic warfare? it doesn't make logical sense of there to be one. Likewise, target filtering would make our lives easier, not more complicated.

@@Enigma89 Is this still the case? Honestly I feel like seeing how you like this game you'd love vtol. Most systems are simple to learn but have a lot of depth under the hood. Biggest example is that radar returns are actually fully modelled, stuff like being able to lose a sam lock by facing it with the front as it has the smallest cross section. Theres also an EW system with low(gps), medium(most detection radars) and high(missile lock) band jamming, drfm and SAS return spoofing.

Played the demo but was a little to much on the arcade side for me. Wish it was a few more notches to sim with a more realistic FCR and targeting pod system. The insta lock on everything made it to gamey. Hope we get a little bit more depth when it comes to finding and targeting the enemy.
