When firing in TAWS 9 out of 10 the Aim54 goes for chaff since the patch, from my experience so far.

Since the F14 is the only aircraft ever to carry this missile, this statement has no point.

I reported this in 2017 and did not get a answer yet.

The AI does not conserve energy at all, so the A8 and p47 will always lose badly to fighters with better turn and climb performance.

Has there been some improvement with pathfinding on the Normandy map? Last time I tried tanks got stuck as soon as they had to drive through a village. I am not sure if this is a map or asset thing.

Throughout the entire war, the Submarine Bases in Hamburg, Bremen and so on were a big target for British and American bomber raids. It could include some bases in the Netherlands too, as well as a low detail British bases similar to the ones we got on Normandy.

Nice!

You would be fine with a map that fits the historical combat area for these aircraft too. There are hundreds of sim pilots that won't get into DCS, leaving WW2 multiplayer in DCS dead as it is, and that is just sad.

Of course, I can. Everybody can. But for WW2 this is not necessary. We know from numerous reports how and where these airframes got deployed. The other sim currently has the majority of the WW2 community hocked despite being an inferior sim. Apart from the dm, which is being reworked in DCS anyway, the dealbreaker for these guys is the map and a channel scenario does not address this. And they won't buy the "sandbox" argument either. A sandbox could also be made with the Rhineland where outside of the I16 all current WW2 aircraft would have a place.

True, but the Dora and especially the K4 didn't saw combat there. Gesendet von meinem ANE-LX1 mit Tapatalk

I am curious, why ED chose to pick up this area for the map since does not fit the plane set we currently have again. This was a complaint people had with Normandy already. A Belgium / Northwest Germany map would have made much more sense. I'm guessing it's about the sea area, so all assets can be used on it.

I've hit repair and now it's fine. Thanks for the support!

Considering that I don't have them assigned I have no clue why this happens, nor why only in that mission. :huh:

Yes. Look at the track. Engine starts overheating almost instantly. But strangely only in this quickstart mission. Gesendet von meinem ANE-LX1 mit Tapatalk

everything auto

So this is odd to me. When trying to reproduce in the qickstart free-flight mission over Normandy I found no problems. But when doing the quickstart dogfight over Normandy my engine overheats even without MW50 in a very short period of time, as you can see in the track. So I think there is something wrong in this mission file and not the module itself. I tested this in the current open beta version 2.5.5.41256. overheat.trk

Was around 600 kph on the deck. Normandy map. Gesendet von meinem ANE-LX1 mit Tapatalk

When switching on MW50 water temps raise up quickly up to 130 and the engine dies after about 2 - 3 minutes. Will provide track later on.

True, my bad. The Early Access Tag seems to be ONLY on the bundle and no other product at all even if they still are EA. May want to change that to prevent confusion.

@Nineline If the map is feature complete and any additional work goes beyond that, then why is it still listed as an early access product in the store without a full release date being set? It seems to me there is an inconsistency in the definition of release candidates here, as all other modules get announcements when they go full release after a period of early access, in which features are being added and bugs are fixed, what is totally fine. But for some reason the Normandy map feature complete before it's considered to be full release and left there for over 2 years? Sorry, this all feels like excuses for, by the standards we may have got used to by DCS, a poorly supported piece of software and even worse customer communication by the 3rd party devs.

So am I assuming right, that the effectiveness of 50cals in areal combat roots in a higher likelihood of hitting critical parts?

So it's not just me. However, it seems to be fine for all other, or what?

I am experiencing some serious warping on the server. Interestingly ONLY on BS. Is anybody else having issues? It's sadly unplayable for me at the moment. It has not always been like that.

AI does not fly the Dora to its strength. It always bleeds its speed in turns and never tries to energy fight or god forbid Boom and Zoom.
