Nope, not just you- I'm fairly certain that's exactly what Wags was saying. Remember, Ubisoft still owns the intellectual properties attached to LOMAC, which was why you still had to have that disc to buy FC2. It's been an ongoing discussion on the ED forums for a couple of months now. _________________________ " And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction: 'I served in the United States Navy.'"- John F.

Every response is "perhaps at a later time", "we can't say anything about that yet"... Unbelievably annoying. _________________________ I blame pilot error.

That is correct and it makes perfect sense. You need LockOn installed due to rights issue with Ubisoft. Obviously you would need DCS World installed as FC3 is a module that is installed to DCS World. Once the FC3 module is installed to DCS World, LockOn can then be uninstalled, as is the case at present when installing FC2 - same procedure. _________________________ Airframe #36 159th Guards Aviation Regiment "Airspeed, Altitude, or Brains; you always need at least two."

Once the FC3 module is installed to DCS World, LockOn can then be uninstalled, as is the case at present when installing FC2 - same procedure. But Ubisoft's legal rights couldn't possible extend beyond the name, unless they cut a really bad deal. Wouldn't it be easier to just wrap up the eventual planes, missions and whatnot under a new name and just treat it as a new module. Having to install a standalone, old product that isn't compatible with DCS world just to install a module into DCS world seems highly confusing.
