Still some time to wait I guess.

This is the only WWII module I'm keeping an eye on, of course if the B-17 and B-25 make it to DCS I'll keep an eye on them too.

[Rudel_chw]

i'm waiting on the la-7 too

Maybe they will have some news with this year’s Christmas update.

I have over 40 DCS aircrafts, so I play everyday

Do you plan to make some F-4E tutorials like you did for the F15?  Thanks TC

Hi, I intended to do some, but somehow I lost my motivation half-way through  … here is a sample of what I wanted to achieve:

That's a better explanation then Heatblur, but are you or will you redo the Tng Mission in game which are lacking some training mission and the ones that are there are not explained very well, they assume you have some knowledge of the F-4E.

Not likely, as I’m on other projects at tte moment.

Hopefully the DCS Model Viewer will be able to open its 3D shape, so that users can create liveries and training missions for it   ... unlike the F-5E Remastered.

[Hammer1-1]

well, at least the news came this year....

I believe that the cryotography standard is here to stay. Regardless, I intend to buy the module, just as I bought the MiG-29A.

for me its a deal breaker, the F-5E was cheap at only us$ 10 but I still regret the purchase and have barely flown it. I have also passed on the Mig-29 and will refuse to spend money on aircraft that can’t have user skins nor can their cockpits be loaded on the ModelViewer

Okay! I respect your decision. I don't really install skins, but I know that many people like to install and create their own skins.

No Corsair for me until this Dev updates the MiG-21 to a proper state!

[westr]

I’m not buying it because they are not adding a 1st person pilot in the cockpit. That’s the deal breaker for me as I notice it so much in VR. Looking forward to the pacific but I’ll wait for the hellcat. And yes I agree with you about the Mig21

I would like some word of promise from Magnitude3 team to continue working/fixing on Mig-21Bis after F4U release. I will buy F4U if that happens, else not.

They've said they planned a major overhal/upgrade to the 21 after the Corsair.

It's a shame. And if the F6F comes out before or at the same time and if it has has a pilot body. I might prioritise the F6F.

They've had a year+ of flight model refinement. And in that time they've done different types of tyres. They could have started work on a pilot body.

They basically restarted the whole project 4 or 5 years ago because they felt the current model wasn't good enough for the fidelity of newer modules. But they don't think a pilot body adds to the overall look and fidelity?

Mates, it's not there yet but still it's great news!! I know it's been a while but remember some third parties had to quit in the past with "easier" modules to model, and one of them with a WWII prop fighter in the works. To model properly a high performance piston engined propeller plane is no easy task, at all, and specially if you have no previous experience about it and if they finally make it to the end (which I hope is close enough now) it'll  be an amazing accomplishment for an small team to achieve. On top of that, a model from a so well known aircraft we all await for and know about, so the slightest slip in the model will be noticed right away. If they finally make it there'll be nothing left but praising them for their achievement after all the bumps in the road they've dodged.

 

And yes, I await either for their promised MiG-21 v2.0 after the Corsair (and the Crusader, of course), but let's them show us all first their job with this one before judging what they can or can't give us.

 

I await eagerly this module to experience the WWII carrier ops and this amazing bird we all have craved for so long. Don't be mean now they're so close to an end to that journey that I'm sure they've suffered to get to this point now. I can only support them and hope for the better (and for the revamped MiG-21, any versions!!  ).
