ED Team NineLine Posted January 26, 2018 ED Team Share Posted January 26, 2018 I also hope we'll get better hit sounds, not those single "clicks" we have now. I have requested we get better feedback from damage, I think it will be part of DM refinements...

taxman1 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 It's not a feature of 2.5, so its release is not tied to 2.5. DM is still in testing and refining. I may have missed some thing i.e.: DM FM, prior to the 2.5 upgrade. I flew this mission twice, after upgrading to 2.5, where you are escorting 6 B17's in the Mustang, attacking an airfield just as 2 109's are taking off I also put 3 190's in the mix just for fun. Prior to 2.5 I would come in and try strafing the 109's I would damage them to point where they where smoking however they would take off and act as though they had received no damage and also could acceierate like a bat out of hell, have great maneuverability and always managed to get on my tail. After the 2.5 upgrade in the same mission I did my strafing run damaging the first 109 who did manage to get off the ground smoking and damaged but flying as a damaged aircraft, unable to retract the landing gear and making an attempt to land. Needless to say I showed no mercy. The second 109 was trying to get on my tail but my wing man was on his shooting him up and the 109 broke off his attack on me. Then my wing man and I just took turns shooting him up until he crashed. After that encounter I started checking around and the 3 190's had been shot down. Looking over my 51 I noticed that I had received some damage to the tip of my left wing, a cannon hole and some machine guns holes, but the damage appeared to only be to sheet medal, prior to the update I believe there would have been flames and the wing coming off. Any how thank you ED for 2.5:thumbup: and I may even be buying the Spit. and Mustang campaigns now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JG3Siggi Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 New damage-model...does it refer only to mechanical damage to the plane or does it include pilot injury/death? If it includes both I hope the current AI pilot insta-kill is looked at because if not it pretty much makes off-line play a bust. http://21iap.net/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick10 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 It would be nice to see some proof of progress on damage models. I’d like to invest in things like the Charnwood campaign or to buy future aircraft but that makes little sense until the damage models are sorted out.

Solty Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Maybe when 2.5 comes out we can see some progress? Something. Pls. It is the main thing that keeps me away from DCS.

ED Team NineLine Posted February 17, 2018 ED Team Share Posted February 17, 2018 It would be really satisfying if we could get a communication regime for DCS:WWII going as it is with the ������ hornet right now. Just a little update every month on what has and is being worked on, what difficulties the team faces and what progression is made - just thinking about a regular short note on the status of the modules (yeah, i am looking at you P-47D). Especially with the hornet the interaction between the community and the devs is lovely and should be prototypical for future modules. If the people know why certain things take longer than expected or at least know what is taking longer every reasonable person understands these delays. In regards of the hornet there were very few critical post despite some delays wit e.g. the caution system. I would love to see a comparable communication strategy with DCS:WWII especially regarding the DM and the Jug. Just my 2 cents though Cheers Communication is based on available information, if there is no information, there is nothing to communicate. As soon as something is known, I will do my best to make sure it is passed on to everyone.

We're not just asking you, although anything you can do to help would be appreciated, we're asking ED to give more information. Whether that be via you or someone else. There certainly is available information, it's just not being given out to those (like you) who can communicate it to us. That information might be 'no progress at all since last update' or something more substantial. We'd just like to know what the situation is more often please. 1 PC specs: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One question Racoon if I may, will the Spitfire have the new component model on release or will that come at a later date and at the same time as the rest of the WWII fleet? Lots to look forward to on the DCS WWII front then.......awesome news.

A few MG rounds to the fuselage.. and the wing fell off. That was on my list I submitted recently, its getting worked on right now. As for the Damage model revamp for player controlled aircraft, its still coming, and they know its important, but resources need to be shifted at times, ED is still a relatively small team. I believe some resources were shifted towards the Yak. The Yak is coming to a close, so I will start asking about the WWII DM again very soon.

It's obvious that the WW2 pace has picked up again in recent weeks, which is most welcome. A couple of targetted "fixes" to some of the existing assets would go a long way: 1. B17 damage 2. Spitfire mirror issues 3.
