It sounds promising for him if he has been able to cut ties from the 1C debacle.

I think also that he would maybe have a clause in the contract that for a year or two after leaving 1C he couldn't create a competing product so by entering the Korean theatre he would be side-stepping any problems there.

I imagine something like this:



with updated graphics and also F-51's involved would be brilliant!

We also have to consider that at-least Luthier wouldn't be stepping into someone else's mess and being in control from the start (and having learned lessons from the failure of CloD), he should be able to bring something interesting to the table.

I think also that it would be wise to maybe start small with maybe a couple of jets and a couple of props from each side, a detailed map(s) with user friendly campaign/mission builder and co-op online play.

Don't throw huge amounts of features in at the start, just get the fundamentals in place, working perfectly and then build on it's new legacy.

If it does happen, it looks like it will be a great new venture into flight simming

I think it wouldn´t be a problem if just 1, 2, or 3 planes were flyable. If they are simulated correctly and are a challenge to master, this is enought to start with.

What I wish for a new flight sim (and I think Luthier shares this vision) is that the environment is simulated at a more or less similiar level than the planes.

This is also what I like most about CloD and don´t like on DCS-Screenshots: CloD makes me feel like flying the plane "in the planes" world, rather than flying a highly detailed A-10 in a wasteland...
The immersion-Factor is much higher when the environment and the plane match.

Well... Let´s see what will happen, Luthier has my sympathy and support...

I agree!...it was even 100% better before the cutting up began. All the bouncing/shaking feeling like an aircraft is gone .. due to community complaints directed at the wrong things to fix ...hit my sig link or requires a double click here, explores the world of dots...dots best seen in full screen mode

I think your new Christmas Present needs tweaking (see your previous post)

Default Advice to Luthier

Just throw in a P-51 with the über .50 and it will be a hit among the red necks!
