New campaigns are always welcome. Thanks for doing this.

This could be just me but I couldn't care less about what's fair or unfair. I just want the most realistic simulation of the aircraft/model/era possible in my favourite sim.

Thanks Baltic. Definitely looking forward to playing the full campaign.

Tacview also helps. Being able to review what went wrong and why (and how missiles behave) helped me get very good with the F-15. I also found that later on while flying I could better visualize the battle space because of reviewing previous flights with tacview, it helped improve my situational awareness.

Fine, you're right. I should have said "I find it hard to believe that ED would delay the release of 2.0" Is my intent behind the post clearer now?

Outlawal you obviously have some sort of comprehension problem or something. My comments aren't directed at what ED said, they are directed at the people saying "Don't say anything negative because if you do then it will push the release of 2.0 even further". I'm just saying that I don't believe this to be the case.

lol why are you guys coming at me like I'm saying their delaying EDGE intentionally. I'm saying it's not likely to be delayed because of a couple forum posts. ED has been around long enough to know to not take the forum too seriously.

Just quickly read through the thread and these caught my eye

I find it hard to believe that ED is delaying the release of 2.0 because a couple of people on a forum posted some negative comments. ED has been around long enough to know that you can't please everyone all of the time and that the internet gives anonymous assholes a medium to troll without any real world consequence.

The way I understand it is that EDGE became 2.0 because the update is going to be a major overhaul of DCS instead of just a rendering engine upgrade.

Can't always be sunshine and lollipops. Whether it's good or bad it's still nice to be kept in the loop about what's happening. There was also a bunch of changes that weren't mentioned for whatever reason (e.g. choppers kicking up dust when hovering at ground level).

Yup

Thanks for the clarification GGTharos.

Damn! The terrain looks amazing, and the lighting looks fantastic! I can't wait to cruise around in 2.0

That's the MWS on the A-10. It will track any missile fired in the area even if its not directed at you.

Does that mean that all FC3 radars essentially operate the same way? Or do different radars have advantages and disadvantages that correlate with their real life counterparts?

I was always under the impression that different radars were accurately modeled for different aircraft.

Darkwolf, you probably did but just in case; did you make sure to disable any mods you have before updating?

Sith, I guess my point was just that there's always so much changing around here that sometimes you can't blame people for expecting 2.0 or the new map as the next update, especially with all of the teasing and hinting of a release before years end. Same way we expected the big update with the Mig-21, for example. But alas, it is a new day and a new update with new bug fixes and that is definitely better than nothing.

While I agree with you and for the record Im not trying to be negative, but we also "knew" that the Mig-21 was going to be released in 2.0, and at one point we "knew" that 1.1.9 was going to be the last DCS update before the 2.0 switch. Again, Im not trying to fan the flames with negativity, Im just calling it as Ive been seeing it. I know that delays happen and bugs crawl out from nowhere slowing progress to a dead stop sometimes. These are just the reasons why I take any news with a grain of salt.

I think a better way to word what he was trying to say is that if 2.0 was right around the corner then there would have been a 2.0 changelog instead of a 1.1.12, which seems somewhat logical.

I'm pretty sure that at 30k feet the F-15 is not handling like it should. There seems to be something wrong with high altitude flight.

I've also never been a fan of mixing all aircraft on both sides. I get it from a gameplay perspective but I don't fly a sim for gameplay I fly it for realism and realistic scenarios. I'll be checking out the 77th tonight, sounds exactly like what I'm looking for.

Awesome video, thanks for posting!!

Thanks for the update. Always nice to be kept in the loop about what's happening. Whether it's good news or bad, it's nice to know.
