Had to chuckle myself at that one. Wagner said the same thing waaaaaaay back when ED fired RRG. Aaaaaaaasnd we're, well not me, still waiting for the hornet and the completion if WW2.
If you just assume that Wagner lies every time his mouth is open you'll be closer to the truth of things.
Clod OEM screenshots & videos of Eu release..So I fly the original game because I am a off-liner and the game's AI was broken after the last good patch, game version 1.0.13954 GigaByteBoard...64bit...FX 4300 3.8, G. Skill sniper 1866 32GB, EVGA GTX 660 ti 3gb, Raptor 64mb cache, Planar 120Hz 2ms, CH controls, Tir5
Reading between the lines "We currently use a dart board and several pints of beer to calc timelines when things will be ready (because we generally haven't a f**king clue) The project manager then picks up the 'dart of devination' closes his eyes and throws it at the board several feet away the number it lands on is how many weeks we then think the project will take"
that would certainly explain the extreme amount (YEARS) of deviation in their estimations.
One thing I will say though is that they do know how to make a trailer! And the Su-33 is such a beautiful aircraft, I think it's much, much sexier than the F-15.
I'm trying to understand the sequence of events at 1:46 though. It looks like an Su-33 is defensive against an F-15, the Su-33 is on a right turn, releases flares, then reverses his turn. At 1:50, it looks like the missile has ignored the flares and is headed straight for the Flanker but suddenly, it just turns away like there's some sort of force field.... I guess missiles are still borked, huh?
I love the carrier wire animations at the end... although is it just me or is the carrier deck too shiny?
Who said anything about a fire sale? Or 24/7? I don't recall moving the goalposts....
There was a decent sale on 1st Sept, a good 60% off using bonus points on 11th August, and a good, proper fire sale on 14th July that lasted more than 2 weeks.
the modules I am looking forward to are the Mirage IIIC and the Tucano , as soon as they go on sale with a good discount I plan to buy them - until then I am fine with what I already have
and I have the P-47C free from the WWII kickstarter.
Mirage IIIC - Mirage 2000C? What about the Tucano? Am I missing something here?
Interesting that the Mirage isn't included in the sales yet.... it was released on Dec 2015 as Open Beta (anyone know the full release date?) but modules that have been released after it such as the L-39, MiG-15bis, F-86F, Gazelle, F-5, etc. have already gone on 50% sale. Maybe an agreement with RAZBAM? Looks like everything after the M-2000C has been on sale of up to 50% off or on some bundle deals except the M-2000C and the Viggen.... the Mirage was out since Dec 2015 but the Viggen was only January 2017.
What? It's going to be the C model? are you serious?
DCS Kickstarter Wags July 2014 "In this July 2014 update, the primary news is in regards to the restructured backer rewards. After a careful review of the older system under RRG, we found it financially unattainable." Wags October 2017 "the investment vs. generated revenue has been excellent for the World War II aircraft. In fact, the P-51D Mustang has twice the cost effectiveness of the A-10C Warthog."
With the downgrade of the next P-51 and then the German jet, 262, to go along with the other late war German aircraft why wouldn't it be a P-47C. Makes total sense in the DCS universe. It makes sense that nothing makes sense.

they are going to downgrade the P-51 ? to an early D or to a C ?
the P-47C is not a bad model to choose, it is only different. although It would be easier to choose the same 47D model as they have now flying with FL.
