311Gryphon Posted May 9, 2019 Posted May 9, 2019 Ideally we'd like to present a consistent customer voice to the supplier on this issue, hence why suggestions to expand the scenario tend to get the reaction you're seeing. In the long run, however, there is no real objection to more WW2 content . . . It's about focus, and finishing what was started first. I won't disagree with you and that makes complete sense. I'd also agree with the rest of what you've said. The only thing I would reiterate, and this only in case I've poorly communicated it thus far, is that the barrier to entry for other scenarios using this same map and many of the resources is low. For instance, a Battle of Britain scenario is not THAT far away. I'm good with waiting for it till AFTER the post-invasion stuff is hashed out, I'm not advocating taking focus away from that. I'm simply wanting to ensure that the desire for focus doesn't present an idea that there isn't a desire for other scenarios. I'll duck out now. Your explanation makes complete sense. http://www.youtube.com/user/311Gryphon i7-8700, 32 GB DDR4 3000, GTX 1080 TI 11GB, 240 GB SSD, 2TB HDD, Dual (sometimes Triple) monitor, TM Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pro Combat Pedals, TrackIR [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

DD_Fenrir Posted May 31, 2019 Posted May 31, 2019 Elefant. Great. Another armoured SP gun almost impervious to air action.
71st_AH Rob Posted May 31, 2019 Posted May 31, 2019 And exceedingly rare. 91 produced, 41 lost at Kursk. Of the remaining 50, two were turned into recovery vehs and all the remaining ones that were operational went to sPzJgrAbt 653 which sent one company to Italy and the remainder to the eastern front. As far as I know, none served in Normandy. Perhaps this is a hint about the upcoming WWII map.

ED Team NineLine Posted June 1, 2019 Author ED Team Posted June 1, 2019 I don't think the Asset Pack, nor DCS World WWII was ever meant to be limited to one area. They are working on 2 WWII maps, and Wags did say the new Free one will be one that can swap between modern and WWII at some point, although the Elefant wouldn't fit there either ;) Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug**

71st_AH Rob Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 :unsure:I don't think the Asset Pack, nor DCS World WWII was ever meant to be limited to one area. They are working on 2 WWII maps, and Wags did say the new Free one will be one that can swap between modern and WWII at some point, although the Elefant wouldn't fit there either ;) :unsure: so what you're saying is that they put high priority on an asset that we are not getting an appropriate map for in lieu of assets that were in the original list that we paid for and could use now? We could of course use the Caucasus map but further North would be more appropriate. The reality is that we don't logically need the Elefant until we have a T-34 or an Italian map. So back to the speculation, does the Elefant then fit into one of the other two planned WWII maps we are going to get presumably in the next few years?

So IF one were to assume an area where both an aircraft carrier might operate and German Elephants on the eastern front during WWII, that reduces the possibilities greatly. Baltic Sea area? Sweeden, Finland, Poland, Baltic States. Stockholm to St. Petersburg is 430mi/690km. Could allow for hot-war(WWII) & cold-war. When you hit the wrong button on take-off System Specs.

Zeagle Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 Hey I would like to thank ED for all the work they have done so far on the WWII era stuff. Keep up the good work guys.

As far as I know, none served in Normandy. Perhaps this is a hint about the upcoming WWII map. They served on 3 fronts besides Kursk (and all the way back to Berlin), Battle of the Bulge, Operation Nordwind and Battle of Anzio. The latter being very carrier operation oriented if you include Corsica and Sardinia (Sicily might be outside the map size?), plus Corsica and Sardinia saw a lot of air action during WWII, them being the base for multiple P-47 squadrons. - Jack of many DCS modules, master of none. - Personal wishlist: F-15A, F-4S Phantom II, JAS 39A Gripen, SAAB 35 Draken, F-104 Starfighter, Panavia Tornado IDS. | Windows 11 | i5-12400 | 64Gb DDR4 | RTX 3080 | 2x M.2 | 27" 1440p | Rift CV1 | Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS | MFG Crosswind pedals |

Yes, he said it would be good for current WWII and carrier operations but not appropriate for the Elefant. So it would appear that the free map will not be the ones you mentioned and it will be some time before we have a map that it served on.

MobiSev Posted June 19, 2019 Posted June 19, 2019 Are the vehicles/aircraft in the free additions section on page 1 a complete list of units to be added in the next WW2 update, or are there additional units not listed that will be included as well? The allies seem kind of empty comparing their tanks, tank destroyers, etc. with the germans. Modules owned: FC3, M-2000C, Mig-21bis, F-5E, AJS-37 Viggen, F/A-18C, KA-50, Mi-8, F-14A&B, JF-17

DefaultFace Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 Wheres the list of what was supposed to be coming later on gone? Its not on the store page anymore....... Or here. Theres a Stuka in the new I-16 trailer (as well as the Ju88). Is that gonna be part of the assets pack or is this something a 3rd party is making? 9./JG27 "If you can't hit anything, it's because you suck. If you get shot down, it's because you suck.

The list is the first post by nineline on the first page, it hasn't been updated in a long time though. However the post before yours from Silver_Dragon has a lot of the stuff that isn't in the OP. What trailer is that, I just watched the I-16 trailer and there's not stukas or Ju88s in it at all, just I-16s and Bf-109s.

Back when it first came out there was a list of planned units including a G-6 and A-8 AI as well as a few other things. Its not on the store page or here anymore........

I maintain the old list on the "unofficial" roadmap (check my signature bellow) and I put the news show by Coyote and others ED members on the russian and other forum section about WW2 assets pack, meanwhile, I only can wait for news about the new assets pack incoming. Has the same situation the incoming and planned assets coming to "cold war" and "modern" times. Of course, the Assets pack WW2 product page, require a update.
