Realistic 2016 releases (NO Wishlist)

[PONTIAC]

in a nutshell: yes ;)

 

What do you want to say with "in a nutshell"? I don't understand this phrase please explain it.

[AG-51_Razor]

It's an English slang term for "without further explanation". So, the implication is that there is a long story behind his feeling that the F/A-18C will be delivered in 2016 but chooses not to share his source. This may be something as simple as he doesn't want to spend the time or effort to type out all his references.

F/A-18C, decent carrier ops, Strait of Hormuz map and immersive campaign, that's all I ask. :)

Good word choice.

Ahaaa thanks bro ;)

Are you sure that 2016 is realistic for F/A-18C Hornet?

 

Nobody except ED could be sure of anything... all we can do is speculate. The 18 has been a WIP for a long time now... but it may also be dependent on other things to come out first, like carrier ops.

 

I think it is realistic until we hear from ED that it isn't.

[Steggles]

I believe the main hold up for the F/A 18 is the A-G radar, and judging by the advancements they have made in 2015, in 2016 it could very well happen.

Not really, I think it's not realistic until we hear from ED that it is. ;)

F-14 and f-18 are enogh for me

2 months and half to 2017: best scenario (very optimistic) is to have 3 new modules before year's end.

 

• In GREEN modules already published.
  
• In RED modules that should be (almost surely) shifted to 2017.
  
• In BOLD modules candidate to be released by 2016.

This comment does not pertain to the Tomcat. It is planned for H2 2016.

 

Don´t know, if everybody realized that, but for me, it´s the best answer Í´ve heard for the last months... :)

Unfortunately, that comment is about 10 months old now. I'd be surprised if we even see the Viggen this year...

Wasn't it earlier in the year when they said they were close to being finished?? I want to say about 4-6 months ago. Please correct me if I am wrong.

[Tirak]

Two changes to the list need to be made. The AH-1W Cobra was stated several times a while back to be ahead of the Hind.

 

As of this post: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2920898&postcount=281, the C101CC seems to be moving along further than we all believed.

Damn, you're right...thought this is a new thread..didn't look on the dates...damn. you ruin my day :)

Realistically?

 

My expectation is that the only thing we get in 2016 is DCS 2.5. This isn't me being optimistic, it's me being realistic. If I'm wrong, and we get more than that, then I'm happy to be wrong. I'm just hopeful that ED will get to a point where they focus on releasing fewer things that are actually finished rather than releasing a hundred things that are half baked.

 

I don't believe there's even a remote chance that the Hornet, Tomcat, naval ops, etc. are out by December 31st. But again, I'm happy to be wrong. :-)

 

I'm VERY excited, though, about the new Caucasas map and the unification that 2.5 will offer. That I think will be released within the next several months.

[probad]

p sure 2.5 is pushed to next year

 

i personally only expect the spitfire out by the end of the year.

[rrohde]

sure 2.5 is pushed to next year

 

Where do you get this from?

 

I have high hopes for 2.5 later this year! Also, besides the DCS Spitfire, I still expect the Su-33 and Mig-29 PFMs this year. :thumbup:

[Silver_Dragon]

Su-33 PFM (and surely PFM Mig-29) has delayed to 2017
