Will the multi crew capability via multiplayer be depend on ED or is LN developing it on their own. I mean ED is only hoping to have that done this year according to their interview.
That's the same message I got. AND the Mig 21 in the game doesn't work. Get a weird cockpit like I am sitting in the nose, can't move and the game locks up.
This is what I was referring to.
"Multi-crew aircraft for multiplayer is certainly something we plan, and aircraft like the L-39 are certainly scheduled to take advantage of this. While this feature will not be ready in time for the release of the L-39, we are pushing to have it available in 2015."
Note "Pushing to have it avail in 2015", now based on history and that language, I highly doubt we will see it this year.
Unless of course things have changed. The L39 along with 2 seats was supposed to be coming soon, and in EDs last post it indicates that is no longer the case.
So I guess the post by VEAO was off the mark, that you guys were going to let the cat out of the bag by the end of Jan and of course that you guys were going to do a big reveal when your website was back up.
"As always we will continue to keep you up to date with P-40F, Bearcat and our other projects and we have been reliably informed that by the end of the month the cat will be out of the bag from Leatherneck as well"
You want to know why some systems that are 'out of date' can't be produced while others can.

Well I kinda thought was obvious from my post.
I mean the F-14 would 'almost' require a RIO in back, though in theory you could have an AI RIO, but that is all kinds of trouble.
The biggest issue is that the F-14 would 'almost' require 2 seat ability which is not in DCS yet and from the last update post by WAGS it isn't coming anytime soon. It was supposed to come with the L-39 but that feature appears to be pushed back. Mind you, if it is the F-14, it is quite a way out yet anyway. I know LN said "we won't have to wait till 2016 for the next module" but I think they are being rather optimistic with that estimate, especially if it's dependent on a feature from ED.
1) Flaps don't work with assigned KEY or Hotas. Don't go down or up , handle in cockpit works.
2) Gear doesn't work PERIOD, Key, Hotas or Handle in cockpit.
Never mind, found it on another part of the forums, Need to assign Custom Keys
Short Answer: They have no idea when it is coming out.
Long Answer: The files are in EDs hands and they will decide when it is released. It appears they ran into problems (pretty normal actually) plus the devs appeared to give ED the files last minute and it was too late to release it on the 15th and 16th as promised.
I am sure we will get the obligatory post from AvioDev pretty soon "Sorry guys but ED found a few problems, we are delayed again, we will let you know when it will be released".
