I truly, truly hope that they will release the Tomcat on the 21st of December like many have speculated, but the fact of the matter is that doesn't seem very likely right now. That's a mere week away and they still have not released the manual to the public and we have seen no community Youtubers making videos about the airplane yet.
This DCS "culture" if you will, of missing deadlines is quite frankly exhausting. I am sick and tired of getting hyped for an airplane that is still MONTHS or YEARS away due to misleading marketing and incorrect statements. Is it too much to ask that devs do not make definitive statements on release dates that they simply cannot make? Or if they do make such statements to ask that if that changes they let us know as soon as possible?
