Anyone can have any of the files for any of the modules at any time. I could download the Viggen files without problem, I just wouldn't be able to activate and use it without a key.

If you think you have NTTR access you can download the Open Alpha branch client and try it.

Whoohoo!! Only 30 days until 2.5 release!

Will Wags look stupid when ED can't deliver on their estimates and can't deliver on their promise?
Will 2.5 be released as planned but have so many things wrong with it?
Will 2.5 be released as planned but with missing features?

Or will we all be in awe of ED's programming prowess as 2.5 blows all expectations out of the water?

Only 30 days and we'll have an answer!! biggrin

From the latest video, the new terrain does look great! Can't wait to fly around.

Haukka81,

Do you have the new terrain running on the rig described in your signature?

Looks like there will still be a Beta 2.5 also, so 2 different versions if you want the latest it seems.

From what I understood, there will be a "released" version which will be 2.5 and there will be a "beta" versions of 2.5.XXX, but that's it. 1.5.whatever will still be available but will no longer be worked on or supported. Hopefully, once this is in place, they can move forward at a better pace.

Looks awesome, but can DCS give me the unpredictable adrenaline rush similar to this(at about 44:00):

I doubt DCS will ever match the immersion of simulations of the past. They are an airframe sim first and foremost.

I've been watching some of the Grim Reapers DCS stuff on youtube, and their missions get pretty intense!

Honestly I wouldn’t give these guys any cash after past performances.

That weird business with dcs ww2 where we backed the project on Kickstarter. The whole thing fell over and bizarrely they took over but since seem to have abandoned it.

Then you ask reasonable questions about when you will get what you paid for and get banned on their site.

Buyer beware.

What are these idiots thinking? With only a few weeks left to go from, hopefully, a 2.5 release, they release a Viggen campaign? I suppose there's no work needed to convert it from whatever it is now to be compatible with 2.5? Or do they just really, really need the cash?

The Viggen campaign is based on Red Flag. That means it is based on the NTTR theatre. The NTTR theatre won't change much from 2.2 to 2.5, at least not that i'm aware of.

You underestimate the incompetence of ED.

As opposed to waiting a few weeks and releasing it under 2.5???
