Anatoli-Kagari9 Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Hmmm, anyone knows if it might get released before the end of the year ? Flight Simulation is the Virtual Materialization of a Dream...
Cripple Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 If I was a betting man I'd say "no". I was under the impression that DCS-2 and the second modern map were in the pipeline before it... neither of which has surfaced yet. The poor Spit, which made an appearance in the 1.5 beta, is still lacking cockpit textures and a properly rotating prop. IIRC that was a cock-up and it's "not even ready as an AI adversary" yet. Waiting (semi-) patiently here myself...

Delayed............. I think he is asking about the ED mk.IX Spitfire, not VEAOs mk.XIV. I don't think we will see either of them before Christmas however.

Ala13_ManOWar Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 I don't think any soon after seeing IA 1.5 state (although we don't know the internal development state). But if we think about other modules 109 was released not way longer after we first saw some screens like the 1.5 Spit is. Let's be positive :). S!

Swam-e Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Just want to put my actual consumer opinion here. I am really excited to get into DCS WW2 enviroment but before i open my wallet for any WW2 fighter, i first would like to see a WW2 map done. Would be nice to have a WW2 Trainer too. Cheers.
dburne Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Speaking of which, I have looked around and do not see any information on it, anyone know the app timeline for the Normandy map? I was one of the original Kickstarter contributers and have all the content coming to me. Just wondering what kind of timeframe they are looking at on the project.

dburne Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 10/4 thanks for the info Sith. Will continue to keep an eye on the progress, really looking forward to it as WWII combat is really my first love in flight sims.

Screamadelica Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 I think we may have to take this to a higher authority....... Dear Santa, It has been a long year and we have all been very good flight simmers. We have been kind to our families and pets. We haven't spent the grocery money on a new joystick, although we have thought about it. We have tried hard to land without damaging our aircraft too much. We haven't posted about the 109's trim or the stability issues of the Spitfire. Please could we have a Spitfire MK IX for Christmas. Thank you, Cheers, Scream. P.S. I promise to leave a nice cold beer under the Christmas tree for you and some treats for the reindeer. There you go. Sorted! :thumbup:
NeilWillis Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Good to see Scream is being good for Santa this year. The good news is, if he gets his Spitfire, we should all get ours too. Whether there'll be room in Santa's sack for the Spitfire, along with the Gazelle, P40 and Mirage is cause for concern though. Fingers crossed!

Screamadelica Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Australian mods riding scooters only eat Kanga-burgers. Kangaroo is delicious! It tastes something like a cross between lamb and beef. Kanga-burgers would be awesome. :chef: Maybe we could use them to bribe YoYo and get that Spitfire for Christmas. Whether there'll be room in Santa's sack for the Spitfire, along with the Gazelle, P40 and Mirage is cause for concern though. Fingers crossed! Santa's magic elves could fly them to us from the North Pole with payloads of presents for all the children along the way.
fastfreddie Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Still lots to be done on the Spitfire, I doubt it will hit before Christmas, would be nice, but I wouldnt hold my breath for sure... I would hope ED could roll out more than one WWII fighter a year .... its going to be 2018 before we see the Me-262 at this rate.
ED Team NineLine Posted October 29, 2015 ED Team Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) I would hope ED could roll out more than one WWII fighter a year .... its going to be 2018 before we see the Me-262 at this rate. I guess it depends on what you want in a flight sim.... it takes roughly 5-6 years to build something like the A-10C or F/A-18C, I think a year for the Spitfire is pretty reasonable... There are other games that churn out planes faster... I would prefer to wait for a professional grade FM myself...

Soulres Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Can only hope, ED has one thing alot of devs dont have, and thats time. and as we all know, they use every bit of time they get.

I understand it takes alot of time but we got the FW190 in August and the K4 in December. It's almost been a year since we've seen a WWII aircraft role out while releases of endless amounts of trainers (3rd party mostly) continue. Hell I'm flying helicopters now and not particularly great either lol.
Blooddawn1942 Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 wasn't the P-47 meant to be released before the Spitfire? Well. Doesn't matter which one we will see first. As long as they're coming! :-) Can't wait to get my hands on another DCS Warbird. It's been a year since the release of the Kurfürst. I need new stuff. Looking forward to the Mirage of course. But to me the old stuff is more appealing. Outgunned, outnumbered, though never outclassed!!!
