Any chance we can get more details about what changes are coming. Are they strictly visual changes or underlying systems changing as well (e.g. suite upgrade, etc...)?

He just says "a weathered cockpit for the retail version later". Doesn't say anything about suite upgrades unfortunately.

I would recommend Open Beta as well, it's surprisingly stable and gets updates much more frequently. Worst case scenario you can always freely switch between Stable and Open Beta using procedures outlined here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=114030

Try the manual update procedure: 1. Open Windows command prompt 2. Change into DCS_updater.exe directory (/DCS World/bin/) 3. Run the command: DCS_updater.exe update @openbeta

Just an update for anyone else having trouble with the DCS_updater executable. Use the manual update procedure: 1. Open Windows command prompt 2. Change into DCS_updater.exe directory 3. Run the command: DCS_updater.exe update @openbeta

I'm with Bell but it's not that I'm downloading slowly, it's the the update won't start at all. When running the DCS_updater executable it loads into the game as if there is no update. I just figured that the update was being rolled out regionally and not worldwide all at the same time.

Lmfao ain't that the truth!

At least you're downloading something, I cant even update lol

Thanks BigNew for the quick responses and ED for an excellent update.

Might not be live yet. I'm not able to update. But the patch notes look very exciting!

Patch just released Changelog: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php...2&postcount=83

It was talked about in this thread. The volume was tweaked to be more realistic but there will be a volume setting for switches soon so you can modify to your liking. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=253423

One can only hope. I'm more excited about these maps than any other map ever.

I think it's a matter of manpower and efficiency. It's much more efficient for content creators to submit their projects to ED than it is for ED to go out hunting for content creators. It makes sense. If you have something you feel would add to DCS, submit a ticket with your proposal and then ED will have someone from the appropriate team reach out to you.

"Everything is subject to change". Like everything else, I guess we'll get it when it's ready. Hopefully sooner rather than later but no use getting it if it's not ready yet.

Make sure you're CDU is set to UTM The 37T is not part of the coordinates. On the CDU, directly above the coordinates entry, it will either say 38T or 37T. This is where you enter it. The coordinates in you're example would be: GG340792

You mean like when you press Rctrl + Enter?

Blue Forces - F15C In Game Name: Mac Thanks!!

I didn't notice any difference. But I'm admittedly terrible at spotting these things. What exactly was changed?

I think it's done this way because HOTAS controls are aircraft specific while the VR and UI controls are global to all aircraft.

Damn you guys are getting me excited. I wish I had time to fly tonight, gonna have to wait until tomorrow. It's these core improvements that I love the most. Thanks ED!

You guys mean sharper since the latest update?

I think the poll results are quite obvious, and the thread presented an interesting conversation with good points made on both sides. I'm interested in seeing how ED handles these challenges in the coming years. Hopefully the right decisions are made for the long run. Regardless on which side of the argument everyone is on I think it's safe to say we all want DCS to continue to get better and ED to succeed.

The problem with this is when a module is stuck in EA for 3-5 years and then taken out of EA before all the features are complete. All the while there are more EA modules being released further delaying the earlier released modules from being completed.
