Thanks, but just one more thing. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to tell if you are North, East, South or West of the target just by looking at the TAD? Is there anything on the TAD that shows me I'm going North for example? Thanks again.

I am getting a little confused where JTAC wants me before an attack with the A10C. How do I know where the IP is and then how do I set myself up to be on the right attack heading from the IP? I know many thing about the Sim now but this is something I'm struggling with. Thanks!

A mini Matt would be good, that way we can see his face as he pulls of some hair-raising maneuvers on the NTTR map LoL.

Will he be talking during these feeds and giving use information on progress ect? Or is he just flying around and showing use the map?

Given that Sithspawn imagined it may take awhile for explosions, I really don't want to be waiting any longer then I have to. We have already waited along time for this and anymore delays would be a right sickener. After hearing they hoped to have it released in the first half of this year and now reaching this date without news of another delay, the last thing I'd want to hear right now is that they are working on explosions and it's going to be along time before it's released. I already thought it was just about finished apart from the blocking bugs and lighting they informed use about, so I was a little surprised when I've heard the explosions weren't in yet. That's no biggy for me though, aslong as I can destroy tanks the explosions can come later. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the stream and then hopefully we will hear more about it's release and that after this.

Have the explosions been left out for map testing purposes? Will they be placed into DCS 2 relatively quickly once the map has been tested? I'm just trying to gauge whether or not DCS 2 is close or months away.

How is Matt going to decide where to go and what to fly? He has just about had a recommendation for every aircraft in DCS and a place to go in the NTTR map. I would like to see Las Vegas at night, both up close and at high altitude.

Where is a link to Charlie Owls other pdf's? I have the A10C, but want the other ones. Thanks!

Wouldn't it be better to setup a poll for which aircraft? I mean, isn't everyone just going to choose the module they best like to fly?

I imagine graphics like that would bring my computer to a stand still. The whole immersion of flight would be ruined by the engine chugging along at snails pace.

I am about to start a closed Alpha for different game and it's going to be 3 months before it moves into beta. I know they were releasing NTTR map as an Alpha, but are they releasing DCS 2 as alpha or beta? I have tested a few games in closed Alpha's and they usually remain closed for 2 -3 months. Will this be the case with DCS 2, if it's going to be released as Alpha to Ed Testers first?

How come Edge can't just run alongside what we have now in beta? We already have a beta exe launcher and people don't complain because they know this is just for testing. I don't think people will be that bothered by bugs because it's usually a constant battle to eliminate them all.

100 troops? What was the lagg like with that amount of ai troops? This is why I'm really longing for DCS 2, because that amount of troops would lagg so bad for me.

I can't help but wonder if DCS 2 is close to release or still some way of when questions like this still haven't been answered. I would have thought if it was close that this is something that is known already. I'm not bothered by the trees myself because I fly jets, but I can understand people's eagerness to know if they fly choppers. One thing I'd like to know, but not sure if it can be answered, is will you be able to limit the scenery and things if your FPS struggle?

Well in the first post I noticed they mention a higher object count, but I'm wondering if they just mean for stationary objects such as buildings ect. Does anyone know if this also includes models that use ai such as tanks & infantry?

I hope it's released soon because this is exactly what I want to do, I want to play the campaign without the massive hits to my fps. I get smooth fps just flying around on my own, but the campaign kills all that. I also want to jump into the Oculus Rift and experience better fps with DCS 2. Why are lots of people talking about SSD? What does this bring to DCS 2 that something like a Raptor HHD doesn't? Should I also install DCS 2 to a different drive then my OS?

Is there any pics of the low detail surrounding the NTTR map?

I really hope this doesn't happen and they allow everyone to test NTTR. The A10C beta purchasers are already getting NTTR for free, so I don't see a reason for anymore perks when everyones waited so long for this. I hope they just release it to everyone because what difference will it make to anyone? I'm sure the A10C beta purchasers will be happy they just got it for free.

Are these blocking bugs turning out to be a concern? What I mean by this is are they the same ones they talked about in the last two news letters?

There are some videos on youtube how to do this, but it would invalidate your warranty. I have the same stick, but it's not something I have tried.

Yeah, I'm hoping to hear soon if it will be released this month given the last estimate. I know these estimates are not written in stone, but a few seem to have come and gone now and we are left waiting a long time before we are given another estimated release date. Given we haven't heard anything about Edge since April though, I'm very doubtful about seeing it this month. I don't know if it's just me but when a release is near I'm thinking we should be seeing lots of screen Screen shots, videos and lots of info.

Happy Birthday- Good Sir.

Yeah, I was hoping we would have news on DCS 2, but it looks like here won't be any news if the sale is this months news. I have them all apart from the Mig 15. Why's that?

Will there be a lot less lagg in multiplayer games with Edge been able to handle more objects? Currently, the more players that join a server the laggy they become. I presume this object count includes the players aircrafts or maybe not?
