Proof? Looks like the payment page has changed and it no longer accepts PayPal.

I cannot pay and now I only get 502 I guess I better switch my attention elsewhere for now and revisit later.

Yup, it was $24.00...

And the final product is about 3.5GB in size?! I keep getting 502 on checkout. Shame.

Pre-ordering...and it is soooooo slooooooow I am afraid it may be crashing...

So @BIGNEWY just confirms that pre-order starts today...

E-shop : on tab Hitting F5 for F-15E on regular basis...

I guess it would start accepting pre-orders around 3-4pm UKT. Let's hope it would be earlier.

Less than 24 to go...

I am rather new to the DCS World. From my little experience, when those famous/popular YouTubers start flying the Mud Hen, you will know the release is near.

I am not sure how to get it done in MSFS, I can adjust DCS World in VR to match, I think.

Video idea: compare the "down town Dubai" in DCS World and MSFS, at 600 knots in Hornet/Super Hornet. I just have had a short "trip" in the latter, the graphics is not that good but at 60+fps, MSFS has a better sense of speed, it seems..

To be fair, South Atlantic map was. A few videos, no ETA at all, when it popped up, it was very basic, but it had the things we love and could play right away, so that was no complaint, unlike the SE project.

I think ASW or warping may mess with the fps number. For see what resolution in SteamVR, apart from getting the setting panel, is using application like fpsVR. For Oculus runtime, my educated guess would be the same as the VD setting.

If your SteamVR video setting stays at 100%, here is how VD setting affect Pico4's resolution (repost)

Accusation is (too ) strong a word. I would say I was just speculating as I claim not to have no insider information. I would say I am not even disappointed. I waited over a year for the MB-339A, I can wait for 2 or more days just to pre-order.

To be fair, if RB really want funding for development, they can bring their projects to Kickstarter or such, it is kinda late in getting money at this point of development.

Com'on, RB mismanaged our expectations, true, but RB does not owe us anything, as we have not even paid yet. We are just too eagar to hand out our currencies.

Hope my post did not create any stir. I don't have any insider information, just from my little software development experience and being a customer of other products, a little observation what might have happened and what kind of impact it would have on the customers, when comparing to other similar announcements -- lately, South Atlantic Map, MB-339A and the Mirage F1. It is not about how I *feel*, again, it is about how things normally happen. For project in general, whether it is an architectural, software, medical, does not matter. The thing, when one is facing the consumer directly, expectation management is the key. And it is not too fair to say that if the pre-order gets delayed and the release will be too, for there is not real date of release. As I have mentioned above, I don't mind 2 more days or 2 more weeks, my £££ are ready, just come and grab them if RB dares.

Well, poor planning and/or poor project management are likely to blame, from my little experience. Generating anticipation by giving an ETA, fine, but failure to meet the date, of course, generates backslash.

1. Not sure, OTT does not work for me across 3 different NVIDIA cards. 2. Start DCS by adding these --force_enable_VR --force_OpenXR after DCS.exe. For full details: 3. OpenXR settings are done in-game, but pressing CTRL+F2

No difference since after this step, the ETA of step 2 is still an unknown.

I dunno, but pre-order it (to be precise), on Day-1 has some silly sense of fulfilment, it is like finishing a task or something. Of course it is just me.

Pre-order is just stage 1, buying is stage 2, downloading and installation is stage 3 and then it would be mapping of buttons, reading the manual, running tutorials, instant actions, making missions, liveries, etc.

Yup, about 24 hours to pre-order.
