Airhunter

Exactly, talking the neutal position here. I wasnt aware of it clipping through the HSD in the full forward position.

Can we expect the aural "lock" and "chaf flare" (currently doesnt work from a cold start) to be implemented fairly soon since all these voiceovers are already there if you run the test? Seems like a rather simple thing to implement fully which also adds greatly to immersion and SA.

After the F-8J my most anticipated module!

I think that is there in order to prevent people from having 8 R-60M's. :music_whistling:

As a general question to the devs - when can we expect the Multiplayer player ID's to finally be fixed as this sort of renders MP useless for the most part at the moment. Isn't this a top priority?

Yes, because it is accurate.

Yeah and sadly those fist things you mentioned are super easy fixes. Heck, if I had the source files I could do those in a week...

With the aerodynamic improvements to the 120, will other missiles get those as well, like the R-27 family, AIM-9 family etc.?

Considering they missed every promised release window so far by a large margin I would have to agree. Just funny that Razbam seems to be working and updating just fine in the last couple months in terms of new content.

Flood mode my dude.

That argument is completely invalid. I expect bugs but not straight up game breaking issues that render most of the game unplayable. ED push all enw modules in the OB branch, new aircraft fetures are pushed on OB, 99% if MP servers run OB. This should be beta and not alpha. But whatever, offtopic.

Yes, please take your time and make sure this is 100% stable and the Multiplayer ID and FPS issues are fixed.

So, I dont own FC3 (just the 27, 33 and 29) and I can now select and fly the J-11. Is this intended?

Operationally Tomcats never flew without them except at airshows. Would still be nice to have but I deem this very low priority, considering how many essential and more important things we still dont have.

Obviously. And they should be a bit more accurate too. Again, flying the GE's with a wrong scale and TIT instead of EGT is kind of wrong...

Honestly for the price you pay, nope. Go get the F-14 or JF-17 instead.

It's a bug in 2.5.6 - The Hornet and most other airframes also are as smoky as a Mig-29,

It's going to be wonderful and way more effective than most people think. In the right hands that is.

Well, we shall see. Of course it depends a lot on the state of core DCS, but even pre 2.5.6 there wasn't really anything in that regard, so who knows.

+1 Kinda strange but I guess that's just the way it is with most DCS devs.

Honestly, I now do hope the alleged sim they are working on together with Meta Simualtions comes to fruition, having the cat and all the boat ops there would be so much better in the long run..

I've already made a thread about this recently https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=264685 Most of the stuff is summed up there. I do agree with everyone here, though. It is very frustrating since DCS seems to turn into a bug-fest with every major update. I still remember 2.5.4, which was perfectly stable and just worked for the most part...

No change to about anyhting. Same micro-stutters and low ovrall FPS with horrible bloomy lighting.

Something does indeed seem fishy as there weren't even any changes to the radar modes whatsoever or the flight model, which shouldnt be affected by core DCS. I mean, core DCS development shouldn't affect aircraft development, should it?

Why can't we just revert to 2.5.5 and go from there and let 2.5.6 cook some more in the background? I feel like all the modules and DCS MP itself will be held back for months because of the whole 2.5.6 disaster. Considering all 3rd parties pay 50% of their income to ED it's a pretty harsh slap in the face, as well as for the community. The current performance and lighting (it looks way worse and more fake than before) is just not acceptable for such a long period of time in my opinion.
