Supercarrier Development Report

One of the most anticipated features is the Airboss (PRIFLY deck) functionality, which will add a new layer of realism and functionality to carrier operations.

The Airboss will offer a superb view of the entire flight deck and provide important information such as weather, carrier speed and heading, and more. It will also give direct control of the carrier’s heading and speed for players to manoeuvre the ship, turn the carrier into the wind for launch and set up recovery operations. An ATC display provides an indication of air traffic around the carrier with integrated radios and Voice Chat interoperability. Arrayed around the PRIFLY deck are a number of video displays such as the landing PLAT camera with further functionality planned such as carrier light management and elevator controls.

We are also making good progress with the finalization of the Briefing Room. This will provide a centralized hub for mission planning and coordination. It will feature a fully 3D briefing room that can be customized per squadron. Each pilot will have a multi-function tablet capable of equipping their aircraft and planning their mission route. The goal of the Briefing Room is to allow both single player and multiplayer pilots to have an immersive and realistic mission preparation phase that places them into the action, even before entering the cockpit. Stay tuned for further updates as we continue to refine these long awaited additions to the Supercarrier module.
