SlipBall

Thanks Mystic!...love the beat :music_whistling:

Yea I hear ya, I don"t blame you at all, I think the 20- or even the 40-if the 262 makes it, would be your best choice since you have the P-51...here is his words on it yesterday http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=114482

Mystic only brought attention to the kickstarter page and a great job! fixed now...llya is the one making the video hope its soon

Great!...more people reached

Yes I edit it in...if you click on the date mark it will open that page

Thanks, I did promise you that I would ask...seems the quote that I scrubbed from my post the other day, was in-deed accurate. :music_whistling:

“SlipBall llya, will people who pledge at the 40.- level, be able to fly the Dora in WWll and also in World when the game is released?...thanks for the reply" Sep. 23, 2013 on DCS WWII: Europe 1944. This has been bothering some folks, so here is the answer to the question: Creator Ilya Shevchenko 24 minutes ago Hey folks, We're finally getting through to the general gaming public, as it seems. Now that the kickstarter hit the initial goal, I guess more people are taking notice. I know I promised an airplane video last week, and the clock is really ticking, but I'm too much of a perfectionist. I feel like I've been in labor for days, and I've finally gone with a C-section. We actually did an almost complete reshoot today. We recorded a very long very detailed conversation between our two main aircraft experts, and I'll probably just release it as is with minimal edits. Just need to subtitle everything. Then, prepare yourselves, I'm going to release another video that has been gathering dust for a long time, a video intended for gamers that do not generally fly flight sims in order to try to convert them to the genre. Now onto some answers. Mysticpuma: I'd love to get your help with a more oomphy trailer. Your work is awesome. However, I'm not sure how we can really create a good trailer with what we have. The unofficial trailer I've seen cannot be made official for a very unpleasant reason. I'm unable to use any portion of my old work for my new project. If you noticed, I'm not even allowed to mention the name of the series I've worked on. That really clips our wings, because at this time we can basically either use existing P-51 / Dora footage from DCS, or have some talking heads. SlipBall: Yes, you'd be able to fly your plane in both platforms Zoltann: There is a banner for the KS on the main DCS page, down to the left. I agree that it's not very visible. I'll work to have a press release up there or something. And there's no reference to our old work because we're not allowed to even mention the name. Tough, but totally outside my control. Jeroen: OK, I'll create that pledge. Good idea, thanks!

Good post David and I agree...it can still be added down the road, if that's what's wanted

I think that most of us have seen that already, thanks though http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=113849

It was offered to us but the response although quit good, was/is just not enough. We could still make it happen there is time left, but we would all need to kick in, and find about 2000 more pilots to pledge.

I'm sure they will be able to get it right, like I said, in the 2011 release of CLod they were perfect. If there is an issue in World, I'm betting they will get it right in WWll

A good post and good points made...I'll try asking llya aswell for an answer

News from luthier Creator Ilya Shevchenko 6 minutes ago All right, so here's the general breakdown of the response to the new Me.262 stretch goals: For: 18 Against: 2 (if I counted right) So I think I'm going to update it today, and that'll be it for the kickstarter changes. Getting down to the wire. A lot of people wrote about making a 50K stretch goal for the map SDK, but that actually doesn't need quite that much money. When I talked about releasing it earlier, I meant doing it simply within the constraints of the base 100K goal. First and foremost we still need to have an internal discussion about it. There are legal issues. I don't own the EDGE engine, and the map editor currently is pretty much open code. Obviously that's not something we want to release to the public, because technologies. If ED, the people who do own EDGE, are OK with releasing it out - and that's a BIG IF - then we'll need to work a bit to make it nice and obfuscated, I'll personally write something that passes for a manual, and in a month or so it could be available to backers. I guess we'll set up a backer discussion and share roles and find some people willing to make 3D models of buildings and landmarks and so on and so forth. Once again, IF this is possible at all. All this within the 100K base, and I really don't see how asking for any more money is needed. Alain: Regarding the $20+ levels. Right, if you already own both the DCS Dora and the DCS P-51, the base 100K tier gives you nothing. I really hope we'll get the 150K with the 262. I really think that people were discouraged by the seemingly unreachable 375K for the B-17, and if we give some much closer goals, we'll pick up the pace. Vijar: Yes I guess we do need something big and powerful to interest the general gaming community and get some media coverage. Time's running out. All bets on my upcoming aircraft video. Milan: On one hand you may be right, and the kickstarter is rather early. On the other hand, I think we did extremely well already, all things considering. Everyone involved in the project is energized. People who invested the majority of the cash to get it started are feeling a lot better. We have a much better idea of what we're doing and what the people want. We still made the money we need to spend as much time as we need on the project, and there's still a pretty good hope of tacking on an exciting new flyable. So, is it as good as can be? Of course not. But it's still really, really good.

Yes I see the problem now, my source was the bookmark that directed to the original kick start page, which is still fully functional...so your update page has edited out my quote source. I can understand the disappointment by some in this case, but it (your update page) still says 85- and the Dora available early 2014 for World

Why are people having trouble understanding this?:lol:

You will get them but not till 09/14...and then you can use them in each World/WW2 its important to read the descriptions

Yes that's correct, if someone wants the Dora early, then they would go for the 85 level

The idea is that if you pledge, dependent on how much you pledge, determines what you will have to fly in. Clearly the obvious best choice would be to pledge 40. vs. buying aircraft after the release. Or if you already own the P-51 then the 20. level will get you the Dora

Concerning the person who pledged 2000.00.- would be cool if the pledge is Oleg's, and his face on the pilot :smilewink:

That's great news Roy!...My reference was the original game and to defend their reputation on dots. It went down like this, some people complained about visibility and so the team broke it...Really llla has a fault, and it is that he listens and acts on peoples complaints. Where sometimes when he knows its already right, he should just tell them to screw off. [VV]75115723[/VV]

So I have not had this problem in the orig. released CLod, that tells me that there is something else at play here. Looking in the wrong area, perhaps a hardware problem, or maybe just bad eyes :smartass:

Yes they have been up...looking pretty good too

Not a easy decision for you, even a stretch goal of 1/2 may be difficult to achieve, with the amount of time left.

I'm not sure that any of those really cool things that we have in Cliffs of Dover will be possible...time/budget constraints

Thanks, and nice good work that you guys do
