Im with you I think this should be the place to come for proper updates, you wouldn't want to any where near the ED Discord anyway its full of 12 year old's in the main channel anyway, a couple of the specific topic channels are ok though in small doses.
-
You know ED maybe it would help if you put some context on the patch delay, I see stuff like this pop up and you sit there and go so its the biggest patch ever possible, what does that mean, what does it include other than what we know, I feel you are a bit too secretive with information and most of us here find stuff out from little snippets like the below screen shot. And I know you will say you cant release patch notes as things may change but I'm pretty sure you have some indication of what was coming with 2-3 hrs of pulling it, why wait for a news letter tomorrow just to tell everyone its delayed, we already know that information. You pretty much need to watch your Discord channel now 24/7 to get snippets on what's coming. Id rather have the delay to fix bugs, but some clarity would go a long way to fixing your some what tarnished reputation in the wider community with this years dramas that have unfolded for you. null

How do you know the terrain engine is being changed that the build we got 5 weeks ago with Kola wouldn't support Afghanistan...your comment doesn't make sense to me Is this just a guess or do you 100% know that because if you do you have insider knowledge.
-
Here's an idea, delay the patch all you like but. Why not just release the Afghanistan module, now. It should be standalone as all modules are, you have paid customers waiting for it, these customers would get it a week late still but they would at least get it and be happy. The F-4E, Kola, Kiowa all released sort of on there own but you add in small fixes, so it can be done. The Afghanistan module could come out now, just release that, break it away from this big patch/noose around your neck. Sent from my CPH2333 using Tapatalk

Them not releasing means its broken enough to cause an uproar and some very disgruntled EA customers, there is no point in that as ED rep is quite low at the moment in the wider community. 2 weeks could fix a lot but id rather wait longer to get more EA features.
-
I would hardly call Snappy post a rant, everyone knows EDs early access program, we don't need reminding about its meaning and a lot of us hear are happy to get EA and have supported it for many years and id say some of that may even pay your wage unless you work for free, its just the content is getting less and less.
-
Well after seeing the EA list im holding off and will wait to see how the guys on our server find it using it with CTLD (if that works with it), lots of things missing in EA I would have considered should be there at 1st release.

Flaming Cliffs 2024 | Supercarrier Updates | Launcher
Hotdognz replied to Graphics's topic in Official Newsletters
All this sounds great, I'm interested to know if the Airboss station is VR compatible, Combined Arms is a mess in VR and has never been fixed up by ED, I'm at least hoping this doesn't extend to the SC when the update drops. Looking forward to Afghanistan and have pre ordered but still waiting on more Chinook info to make the decision to buy, also no news if Orbx plan to drop the promised June update winter textures update for Kola. -

Well we had 10 of them flying around TTi server all having a blast, not one person cared about the lower poly model, it was just great fun to fly and learn the systems, we were having great fun, we did AA kills against out Phantom pilots buzzing us and gun and rocket kills, had a blast trying to kill each other with the M4. At the end of I asked if they would all buy it again after playing with, everyone said yes, its bloody awesome even with its small warts, well done Polychop for getting to the finish line. And to make it even better for me, it didnt cost me anything as I refunded the F15SE.- 592 replies

Well there is a magic button for a select few, even so much as people being given it 2 days ago for YT content. So there getting a minor core update and having the module activated for them. Sent from my CPH2333 using Tapatalk

Totally agree with what you said. Modules released without major patches (Like Kola had) Patches released without major modules This would really help ED improve what I would call a burnt reputation this year and maybe help claw back to the heyday of ED around the release of 2.9 and also keep module dates separate from big patches and the issues that can eventuate on release day
-
Ay I know that it was the patch that was the issue and I'm happy to wait for bugs to be fixed found in any patch. What im saying is why don't ED just release F-4E the module to all the accounts that purchased it as its certainly been released to certain accounts that YTubers hold so my guess it could be rolled out to everyone who purchased it with a minor update patch for everyone, I think this would be even more important especially if we get another delay.
-
So if all the YTubers can get the F-4E (Sidekick just got it yesterday im guessing) why cant they just release the F-4E module to the rest of the paying customers and leave the unstable patch out of its release and work on that until its stable, seems like its still able to be rolled out as a stand alone module to those who payed.

Are you surprised, 5 hrs from launch and they are still testing, should have been locked down a week ago ready to go, things never change.

Barren or not the ground texture colours should at least be based on what the real life colours should be, not the bright green that is used in this area. Sent from my CPH2333 using Tapatalk
