Where did you get your info thinking A2A refueling is easy in real life? Besides a night carrier landing A2A refueling is the hardest thing a fighter pilot will do during his flight in real life. You need to study how to videos and practice not complain on forums to have it dumbed down!

A grey vehicle is very hard to see with any just about any background. It's the reason both navy ships and most military aircraft are painted grey in almost all militaries of the world.

Even if this conspiracy were true and the Russia AF is using the K74M in secret throughout the entire airforce,(which is definitely not true!), how could ED ever gain access to the documentation to implement this in game today???

Huh?What did I just read? So this is all a conspiracy and Russia is using the K74M on all its fighters, but hiding it ?

Actually the onus is on you to provide a reliable source stating that the K74M is in use across multiple platforms throughout the russian airforce. There are no such sources because as you've been told many times, it is not in active service other than in very limited instances and only in the latest gen fighters. This is not Fantasy Combat Simulator.

Or do like the majority of players and switch to OB! This is not like other games, OB has the most up to date patches, with (almost always) the least amount of bugs and all the new weapons, modules and all the best MP servers. Forget the words release and open beta. 2.5 in itself is in OB. We then have an up to date version and older version. There really is no reason to stay on release.

VBK throttle/stick combo comes to 1200$ shipped to Canada!! no thanks!!

We've had this discussion before. All mods on a server must be downloaded by each player. Not many if any PvP servers allow mods.

Unfortunately a mod won't cut it on MP. I'm hoping the ED is working on something with Russia, but not holding my breath due to the limitations of simulating their aircraft as we all know by now.

Unfortunately it's these type of shenanigans that will have ED review its third party policies even more in the future. To be honest I think third party devs should be forced to work on one single project at a time (unless they can show the completely separate teams are working on different modules) before they can release any new modules. I guarantee the work involved in producing the Mig 19 was several times that required to fix the M2K radar, but of course with the limited resources, they decided to release new modules instead of fixing major bugs.

I don't think it has ever been ED's policy to acknowledge all bug reports on the forums.

This post easily wins the obviously not a bug, but Daniel will complain and post it as a bug, nonsense!!! The answer is found within your post and you even highlighted it!!! And you wonder why mods keep admonishing you!!

Schmidtfire is right and actually describes the best tactic for flying the M2K! He may be able to teach you a few things about the M2K:P The only way to remain stealthy in an M2k is to be radar off. TWS is NOT and never was stealthy radar. It emits therefore it broadcasts. Now this is NOT to say there isn't a problem with the radar. But I'm willing to wait and see what they come up with.

That's what he said. Military restrictions based on top secret information that cannot be released. All countries have laws/restrictions to protect military secrets.

And then at the 31 min mark the forum will be inundated with people demanding an explanation why the update did not go through yet. Patience Daniel, patience!

they did not say anywhere in what order the changes will come.

Daniel you better check your online threats !!! You can get in much more legal trouble then you already are (banned from servers/discord channels) with these threats! Razbam is doing a M2K overhaul (with some releases in January according to Zeus) and with ED finishing (hopefully) work on DCS radar, we should hopefully see some good changes this year!! You need to take a breath, stop and think before posting! :P

Won't be able to test for a few hours, excited to know what the new max distances will be! Of course you need to test from alt.

It could be worse, we could be some of those fool-hearty folk who think stable is the only version to have!

Mine just shot back up to 9 out of 27Gb! After initially downloading 9gb. Something's not right.

NM. don't forget to disable your mods first!! My sound mod wasn't disabled. its now around 9gb d/l

27 GB download for me HTTP D/L. how is this possible. switched to torrent, 27GB. everything up to date until this morning.

At this point I'm considering the map as a WIP. One of the most frustrating, bug ridden part of the sim. But to add, I don't consider it a priority at this time. I do have confidence the map will get worked on, but there are more pressing issues and ED seems to have a full plate so we'll just have to wait.

I doubt server admins will be forced to do anything. It is their hardware that is hosting, so it's up to their discretion to remove/ban anyone they want for any reason. There is no way ED (legally or ethically) can force a server to accept someone they don't want to give access to.

Actually most software will force an update whether you want to or not. I like that DCS gives me the option to cancel the update and run the update anytime of my choosing. It's not a bug, its a feature. ED gives you the choice to install or not. If you want to run it later run the updater.
