This leaves a bit to be desired. For one, why can't the Harrier be used to dogfight MiG-29s and Su-27s by default? I am slaying those fighters in the ME, but I am restricted to C-101s and L-39s in the QAG. Not even Su-25s are in there. So, then I went to try a bomber escort mission with Harriers providing escort (a real mission they could do) and the opposition is too weak. Can you add credible opponents, regardless of what you decided would be most appropriate on the first iteration of the QAG?

Leaving so much in a permanent beta state allows more units to be sold with fewer obstacles and burdens. Two teams working on different items allows the ED store to sell new maps quicker. Some people love it, some people see it differently. Can't really have a wrong opinion here. But yea, I didn't buy the Afghanistan map for several reasons and I am wondering what Iraq will look like when it's finally unwrapped.

Sheik Isa Air Base, Bahrain -- home of the 3rd MAW during ODS. Mandatory, needs to be included.

we have a winner this is reasonable, I might rethink purchasing until I see what comes of it. We all remember how Afghanistan was released.

For the sake of Desert Storm, at least backdate the F-16 and the F/A-18. If ED ever fixes things with Razbam then maybe we can get a Day Attack Harrier.

Hello, when I alt tab out to windows and back again, it takes anywhere between 3 and 30 seconds to get back into DCS. Sometimes it even crashes. This didn't used to happen before 2.9. I am not sure what I can change to make this work correctly.

Well, I think I found the culprit for my Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS stick: I sprayed contact cleaner, but it could also be a customer service issue

I checked the key bindings and they are pretty clear, but I noticed it happen with the Hornet tonight. Rebound all the keys and it still happened again. With the Hornet it even fired random ground attack weapons. It's strangely tied to my weapon release button even though they are not double binded. Bad joystick?

These switches tend to randomly fire AIM-9s and AIM-120s since the update toiday Dogfight Switch – MISSILE OVERRIDE/CENTER UNCAGE Switch Dogfight Switch – DOGFIGHT/CENTER

Man I'm so sorry to hear that. Any chance to recover? Maybe in the temp files?

Will do

How many Gs can you pull before these loads detach: 1: FAB-250/500 2: Nukes 3: Fuel tanks

There might be a little bit of Pakistan in there

Can this be moved to the Bugs section? My mistake

Does not, DCS_updater.exe just does an authorization check and takes me into the game UI.

I can't even find the directory to the new launcher. No new icon

My Warthog throttle doesn't respond (this module only so far, but works in Hornet) and cannot reset it. Red ! appears.

Same, and AJS37 is a trial so disregard

nullThis is an interesting error, not for the AJS but for the -23

I can think of 3 really interesting scenarios to have on this map. But GWOT, endless circuits and dropping a bomb ever 50 missions is not one of them. None of Iran is included (current hotspot between Ayatollah and Taliban over water, with Iran flying over Afghanistan with its air force IRL), none of Pakistan (could the Pakistanis go after the new Taliban, now using tons of western equipment?), and battling the Taliban from sea, which now seems impossible without designing missions to jump across maps. Nope, won't be getting this map as it misses on all the main points and would only encourage them.

Because even in Afghanistan, the Marine Corps flew from the sea before they flew from the land. Traversing 200 miles or so of Pakistan does not take very long in a modern jet, especially when you have to do check ins and refuelings on the way. But the biggest reason is that Harriers and Hornets are limited on their payloads when they take off from the higher elevations in Afghanistan. In fact, the winds at Bagram were so high that the Harriers violated their safety protocols just to land there (not allowed to land in heavy crosswinds).

That's fine but do you really have to shut down his opinion if your angle is that people can have their opinions? I actually think ED should give some more choices with this map and maybe you're going to shut that down too.

He has a good point, and I think this is exactly what he means by suppressing an opinion you don't agree with.
