The time to Update? | Viper Pilot Model | Voice Commands | Screenshot Competition

[@lambdacalculus8316]

The pilot body improvement looks fantastic! It seems so live-like.

[@catfunt5583]

I know, I can’t wait to admire it for 5 minutes then turn off pilot body like I do in every single aircraft. So glad they spent their dev time on this rather than say, literally anything else

[@TheFoxYTB]

This was a very interest wakening video... I think falling asleep while watching this would violate some Geneva Conventions❤💙💛Greetings from Germany

[@RAIDR_71]

Integrated voice commands would be great, and a smart business move from ED, xpanding their presence in the marketplace

[@MrMagoo-eb4co]

Using Voice Attack is really an option for all DCS modules. Entered the Pymax Crystal Light giveaway, wish me luck!!! Same for Afghanistan theater!

[@brandonchappell1535]

Good luck, brother in (virtual) arms !!

[@caspianandersson9195]

Love the way the pilot model looks!!

[@nighthawk1867]

Those pilot helmets keep reminding me of Star Wars. The MBB helicopter looks good, so that's 3 tiny choppers; MBB Kiowa and Gazelle.

[@gomes389]

I think the most important thing of all at this time was for ED and Razbam to resolve their conflict to increase their customers' trust levels.

[@Newton492]

Wait so have they resolved it yet?

[@hipgames]

Not that we know! I guess next update we check out if there are any traces of Razbam work and fixes

[@gomes389]

@@Newton492 As far as we know, they have not yet resolved the conflict, but at least they could make an official statement informing customers of the current situation.

[@rscuatc1]

I really admire (and am very grateful for) the skill some folks have with making cinematics with DCS but I have none of those skills and prefer to just fly missions and target 'bad guys'. Now I get to look forward to even more impressive cinematics and spending some time in the F-4 pointing the nose at an imaginary (hehehe) enemy and wreaking havoc on em. Thanks for another great summary Andrei 🙂

[@manuelgreil4306]

Judging by the preview videos, the Phantom looks to be even more phantastic than I had anticipated. Much to look, err, phorward to. 😀

[@EnigmaticPenguin]

Hoping you'll consider migrating your future DCS giveaways to a site like you did the Pimax one as the "Comment on all of videos and join the Discord." feels a bit haphazard as to what entries get counted.

[@hipgames]

I actually will because its too much work for us here

[@DemoNotReal]

Been waiting so long for that viper pilot body!

[@Coolhand101e]

So many cool things coming to DCS! While I wait for the Phantom, I might have a look at that screenshot contest... 🤔

[@PoochAndBoo]

The F16 is my bird, so looking forward to seeing that pilot. Glad to see the Viper still gettin some love.

[@funkee05]

This is today, the Phantom and update are almost there! Cant wait for the evening! 😀

[@Stjernescud]

A lot of interesting stuff going on! I think I'll sit out the Phantom, very much looking forward to the Tornado.

[@unicornrob9603]

Every time I see new aircraft my wallet gets scared

[@flyingkah7223]

I wouldn't know about the competition if it weren't for your channel

[@j_clark]

Quite a bit of info covered in this one. Thanks!

[@TheOscar31_]

The new pilots 3d models are really good, you can see the wires of the helmet moving with the G's, and that seems to be a really good improvement for the future of DCS (I'm thinking about tankers' hoses reacting to turbulence or reacting to the planes movements more realistic)

[@ivaniuk123]

Voice attack should be integrated into DCS natively. When playing VR in the apache it's not only easier but also more immersive.

[@nicktownsend582]

The AI RIO extension for Vaicom Pro is an absolute must, particularly in VR. I really hope the devs are able to implement something similar with the new F-4E Jester!

[@d1fballplayer]

Its worth the $10.. can do a ton of stuff with any game.. dcs just needs to focus on the game itself😅 we dont need a new incomplete feature

[@fl398motorsports3]

Another great vid. I really think HB needs your channel on their release preview list!

[@bones10145]

I've used voice attack for voice commands with jester and it's pretty handy.

[@plasmatron_3000]

Great video as always!

[@startourzdcs]

The pilot animations are cool, I hope they can do something similar for the levitating infantry from 2006. Lol.

[@joelmulder]

Voice interactions would absolutely open up a whole new realm for DCS. Imagine how amazing it would be to have AI JTAC and ATC on every server, but properly integrated into the game, kinda like how we now have Beyond ATC for MSFS.

[@IzmirAviator]

i wish there was a full on visor and the helmet, body and mask all visable as if the camera is in the pilots eye!

[@refikcandevseli3329]

Tornado should be quite fun as well. I hope we can get mig-23 too. These are some iconic aircraft for cold war.

[@davidjames7382]

Great video. I dont even update my Echo 19 sound mods...every time I do, a "new" update comes out...getting closer to June ( waiting for release of Afghanistan map). Don't know if I'll purchase the Kola map...the Squadron I fly in won't be using it. Andrei, did pimax get the issue resolved regarding the giveaway contest? Thanks for the updated reports! Always consistent! Keep up the good work

[@TAC_PAN]

Man that Viper and F-18 body updates would be real good, taking off from the carrier would be great!

[@stevenrobison806]

Thanks for all you do.

[@Laerei]

Soon we all will be counting potatoes to Phantom release, hehehe. Meanwhile we'll be able to see what Phantom can do because it's already in the hands of content creators. What little there has been thus far is pretty and awesome. I am even more excited than before! Oh, and the new pilot models look great, but does this include pilot model for cockpit view in F-16? We'll have to see.

[@ozcougar2133]

Another great update for our favorite flight sim. Cheers 😎

[@ethanhiggins4887]

Microphone cable routed incorrectly, mask slack not tacked, missing HMCS tail... Otherwise it looks great! Loving the variations in gear such as the frost and koch connectors and the seawars. I'll be curious the route they choose to go with the NVG's. I still really wish they would add the NVCD's but its too "modern" I guess.

[@Iwasinverted28]

All good stuff, thanks!

[@DCS_World_Japan]

Players: "Can we get AI that doesn't shoot at us through hills?" ED: "No but we have eye movement modeled in player pilot bodies!"

[@mlnaveiras]

Great news! Excited to try the "new suit"

[@jaegermeister1516]

I just hope that with the Afghanistan Map coming, they will overhaul ground troops as to make for a more realistic CAS/insurgency gameplay. Just started to get more back into the Apache and Warthog. Also it’ll be interesting to see how the Chinook and its transport role will fit into this map. Id love to get my hands on the map

[@thomas_ger4098]

The pilot model is really awesome. Hope we gonna see more realistic movement of pilots as well as infantry

[@Benom8]

Looking forward to the update!

[@luchygonnet5505]

Great video, I think the pilot models is a great feature but I think ED could use this time to add features to other models that we have been promised, such as for the super carrier. Can't wait wait for the 24th and it a Friday, someone at heatblur is very smart,now I can fly the f-4 all weekend.

[@mattstephen7494]

Nice Star Citizen reference

[@nateweter4012]

We want Petrovich updates (real life kitten Petrovich). What food does he eat? What are his sleeping habits? Have you shown him a model of an Mi-24 Hind yet and noticed a strange fascination from him?

[@r4dio4ctiv3man9]

Fist confirmed kill of the DCS F-15E was the ED download server. Wonder if the F-4 will follow the mudhens example...

[@brucewelsh1969]

Thanks for the update.

[@Shattering_Comet]

Wonder if there's a lot of overlap between DCS and Star Citizen players. I know my HOTAS pulls double duty!

[@Nick-vq2in]

I’m so excited for the viper pilot model!🎉

[@bunburyodo]

I know it takes time to develop things, but i was quite surprised at how little progress there seemed to be on the Tornado since the last news. It feels like this is a really long time away from even early access, which as a Brit, is a huge shame.

[@hangtownflyer4678]

Hard to not want to buy the crystal light! Looks like nice equipment.

[@ZekeAR2]

That Tornado interests me a lot, but the list of modules is long, so they can take their time to finish it.

[@kkksksjnsnsn]

well next update seems interesting but bo-105 will be really cool with the voice recognition

[@paulowinter5733]

Everybody updating at same time 🧐 I will wait a few hours to do it 😉

[@LEAD-DISPENSER]

personally i fly only in vr an don't normally use pilot model as in the early days you used to clip in an out of the dudes head an after 10 years of not trying again i may just they look really good

[@Digger513]

Nice! Good update as always

[@erikvandebroek3827]

Finally F16 pilot, essential in VR. I use it for scaling.

[@ZZCheetahZZ]

Yeah!!! The Phantom is almost here 🎉

[@dragzzt]

Wow, pilot model moves up and down ;D

[@armybroskytrucking9046]

looking forward to new updates always... still looking forward for the Kiowa though

[@guimhoff]

Love the new pilot models! Do you think the plan at 2:29 is made thanks to a nes camera mode, allowing free cam and head to be shown in F1 like camera mode? Or simply that instrument pannel and pilot model will be shown in full quality in F4 cinematic camera mode?

[@zachiekhous1413]

Lots to wait for 🎉

[@nicolaspetelet9943]

Hello jolie vidéo comme d'habitude. Bientôt le f4 😊

[@Jakes_1-1]

Never cared much for pilot bodies until I saw how immersive it is in VR....WOW!

[@gavind1483]

Those goggles on the F16/18 pylotes make them look very flat headed... Finally some realism!

[@Marc42]

Launch party! 🎉🎉🎉

[@brandong2040]

You weren't deemed worthy? That's not cool! As always, thanks for the updates.

[@jr0815_aka_gulredrel]

Excited like Petrovich for the Phantom.

[@shrimpsoldier9780]

hope we get to see these improvements in the viggen

[@DR-jq9bg]

I like the integrated voice commands!

[@TheDecompose]

I just remembered that if I want all the jets once used by the Bundeswehr that come to DCS I gotta dig deep into my pockets. Already forgot about the Tornado and than there is the G.91 coming. Do I need to mention the Eurofighter/Typhoon? :D

[@pickyfox9061]

Yeah, new updates!!!! It's like Christmas presents in May!

[@nicogpn4814]

This Summer will be HOT for sure!!!

[@latajacamysza8365]

Tornado - the plane I am waiting for. ❤

[@AR_Parker]

ahhh yes the mini map........well the map in general lol

[@Paloch1708]

Got some concerns for Kola map, but ngl the map is very photogenic. Overall I do enjoy the view enough to be happy about the purchase.

[@anubis2k24]

loving it!!!

[@skpepi]

Would love to see integrated voice commands in the game :D

[@mateusfcl]

I wonder if the A-10CII will ever get a pilot body model... Kinda blows my mind that it still doesn't have one either...

[@ashitaka74]

Do we have any news about razbam updating the f-15E? 🤔

[@thomasoswaldaerospacesoftw426]

nice that we get animated eye movements, and another ton of features I will hardly ever see but does ED also work a little bit to make the game more playable again, like getting rid of the microstutter, many people experience ? after all the main purpose of a game is to play it and not to watch videos about it...

[@vperduct]

So you guys didn't receive the F4? Such a waste

[@quavera]

Yeah I mean this is a news channel. I think they're giving it to channels who will actually fit certain content for it pre-release like GSW with his dogfighting video of it, Redkite with his tutorials etc

[@vperduct]

@@quavera I understand but HIP does reviews, previews and share their opinion on maps and modules, even tutorials. The news is the cherry on the top

[@dimitriapostola3119]

If it's a question of eyeballs you'd think they would want this channel especially

[@aztec0112]

A BIG difference I see is, that with previous releases, the Select few got their previews several weeks to MONTHS in advance of the actual release (ie the Dirt Chicken) IIRC, this caused some grief in the community as all sorts of content was being created by the Select, and all of us Plebes were left waiting and waiting...and waiting. I cannot imagine the pages of NDA's the Select had to sign though, probably with their own blood. 😂

[@hipgames]

Oh I can only imagine as well...but it is well done until so far and the marathon continues.

[@DCSHornet51]

The F-4 is looking gooooood.

[@OnlyNapalm]

Voice commands 🤔 hopefully that will be done on platform level for all modules.

[@Roke215]

Cant wait for the phantom. Did the say when it realises on steam Time wise. I only know May 21st

[@hiimcsittusz2278]

Great video!

[@serinusgranainobolborhynch868]

New updates...nice!!!

[@Andywils02]

Not sure if the download servers are ready for next week.

[@Marcin79W]

Can you imagine if pilot's body would follow hand tracking in VR?...

[@MackieBooms]

When will the briefing room in the carrier be available?

[@ollyk22]

The pilot models look amazing, but I want to hear about the plane captains, and I'm not going to shutup until we hear something :-p

[@evstachip89]

Sedlo will have a mission for The Phantom upon release. Getting close now.

[@adaml6757]

Enjoying F-14 while waiting for F-4...she's such amazing plane.

[@Addexetti]

Viper pilot model gonna look so good

[@prox7179]

Voice command would be interesting, to say the least.

[@suecobandito8954]

It'll be like half-time of the Superbowl; city's water levels drop as thousands flush their toilets. Thus overloading the system. Petrovich doesn't have this issue...

[@mgplaying8435]

The pilot body story is a joke. I mean, good for the Hornet/Viper drivers, but it is a shame ED can´t release a pilot for the BS3. This module is ~13 years old and we still have no legs flying it...

[@Megotonna]

Good job 💯

[@R4p70r26]

Voice commands would be nice AF

[@dishdoggiegaming7254]

I Ordered My F-4 from Heatblur not from DCS as a way of thanking them for this Model. It was the same Price as on DCS but Heatblur got the Money for it with no cut to DCS (Right?) anyway Now I need to wait to get a notice from them with a Code to download it from DCS. I can't remember if it will be a Early Access this way or same time as everybody and I'll just have to wait till they send me my Purchase Code.

[@Rhynocx]

LETS GO!!!!

[@madbas1]

I need an updated roadmap with future releases 😅

[@brandonchappell1535]

Not complaining, but didnt the hornet just get a new pilot model? Upgrade still welcome!! The A10 model is well overdue, just restarted persian freedom, so would be great to have in VR

[@hipgames]

Yes, yes aaaaaand yes!
