upupandaway Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Well hurry up and get accessed. Wags just went all awesome in the Backers forum. Awesome, really? I mean, Wags probably is, but the whole thing is rather sad. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Deedle, deedle!
Flying Penguin Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Awesome, really? I mean, Wags probably is, but the whole thing is rather sad. Awesome, in that it's probably the best thing to happen to this project in a while, at lease if you define best as "best chance of delivering what was promised".

Vlerkies Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 A lot of us have access, but I really see no point in locking people out of that forum now, in fact they should just merge the thing, simplify the whole DCS WW2 project into a single open forum. There were lots of promises made, with good intentions no doubt, but sadly a lot fell by the way side. Time for a fresh start I think. A single forum for the DCS WW2 stuff open for all is maybe not a bad idea.

I think the backers section will be maintained, of course if all the backers got together and decided this was a perk they no longer needed, I am sure you could approach ED with that. It is hard to maintain a private section when those private thoughts are spread across the internet in a matter of minutes anyways :) Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug**

cichlidfan Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 I would certainly agree to dumping the 'private' backer's section.

Whiplash Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 I would be all for it as long as it doesn't stop ED from posting Alpha images or updates. My gut says it won't. I would think that ED would treat the closed backer forum the same as an open forum because its like Sith said it all gets out eventually.

leafer Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Awesome, really? I mean, Wags probably is, but the whole thing is rather sad. Seriously, ED have always been awesome; now Wags is awesome as well. Kidding aside, I can't think of any other developer to carry that torch. ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
agrasyuk Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 OK, so since details of the turmoil are not visible to general public I guess its time to follow through as to why I don't have access to backers forum. Who do I need to contact about that? Anton. My pit build thread . Simple and cheap UFC project

Buzzles Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) Well, it's on other forums now, so someone should put a post in here. Although Wags has said there's going to be forum restructuring soon. Here's a link to SimHq, quoting a slightly older version of the official post, with the updated annoucements in later posts Edited June 8, 2014 by Buzzles fixed a link Fancy trying Star Citizen?

HungaroJET-MW Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 You have to authorize your account through the DCS website, see the first link in the update: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/personal/backer/ Unfortunately I do not have permission to access to the backers forum. I used a different e-mail as a Paypal founder therefore I was not able to use my "old" username with the new e-mail, so I registrated my "new" username on https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/ (DCS page) in March. My normal forum access is working (via DCS page) and DCS: WWII Backer Rewards Personal Section too but I cant go into the backers forum :( What did I do wrong ? So far, only five aircrafts I chose of the six on the DCS: WWII Backer Rewards Personal Section, so i did not finished yet completeley the form. Selected Flyables: 5 / 6 I left the 6th aircraft line blank (please select) so far. This is the problem ?
Siggels Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) I don't have access to the closed backers forum, but I do have access to the DCS backer rewards section and have an account there. Every thing is sweet. But what do I need to do to get into the hallowed ground of the backers forum? Edited June 8, 2014 by Siggels
LosT_SouL_VL Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) At CombatAce there's a thread /"]http://combatace.com/topic/82986-dcs-is-getting-ridiculous/ that states that RRG is out of business...Tough luck for the backers but it was foretold that this could happen with the CloD debacle in hindsight and with the very same Luthier... Also the bottom ED line is and has always been that everything is subject to change, so if you back a project/module you never know what can happen or become of it like fe this module, the Mig-21 module or the Nevada terrain...

thinkr Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) Thank you for the info Lost. I pray ED hires more people so they can get more of the tedious tasks done at a smoother pace. That way they can focus on the game engine. Perhaps one day I will also be able to move the position of the controls indicator for my favorite FC3 aircraft so we can enjoy them more while we wait.

leafer Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 Also the bottom ED line is and has always been that everything is subject to change, so if you back a project/module you never know what can happen or become of it like fe this module, the Mig-21 module or the Nevada terrain... What has become of "this module" id that ED continues to develop and honors KS commitments. Sure, everything is subject to change, but the change in this particular case is for the better. Leatherneck did the same for Mig-21 and release is imminent. No one paid for Nevada, yet. Wags said it'll be free to those who purchased A10C beta and I'm positive they'll honor that as well. Thank you for the info Lost. I pray ED hires more people so they can get more of the tedious tasks done at a smoother pace. That way they can focus on the game engine.

So the bottom line is don't pledge money to an unfinished module or pipe dream? EDIT: I was wondering the reasons behind VEAO taking on WW2 projects, now we know
sobek Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 EDIT: I was wondering the reasons behind VEAO taking on WW2 projects, now we know You are getting way ahead of yourself. The RRG team minus luthier is now employed by ED. VEAO has nothing to do with this. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
