It would be great if there was a fixed beta period. We're usually given a time frame for a product to go into early access/alpha/beta. Then we're usually given multiple extensions until it happens. However, once it does there is no standard. I don't care if it's 2 months, 6, or even a year, but there should be some sort of expectation that a product will only be available for use before final release for a fixed period of time. If it's out for 2+ years before final, the question becomes why was it released so early? If the "final" release consists of minor bug fixes that would otherwise necessitate a mere third digit increment (ie 1.5.4 was beta and 1.5.5 is release), then final release could've been earlier, like maybe 1.5.0? If you're going to use industry standard terms, then use industry standard definitions and practices for what that means. Otherwise, just come up with your own. The Jedi Master

The Jedi Master The MI-8 just hit release this month. It was in "early access" for about 3&1/2 years. That's a tad long IMO.

And does it (the release version of Mi-8) have door gunners?

You guys are doing a hell of a job of convincing me not to reinstall DCS now that I just got my gaming rig back from Dell's repair depot.
