Techy111 Posted July 28, 2016 Author Posted July 28, 2016 OK another silly question, why don't they warn us on the DCS sales page ???? Doesn't say "hey don't buy me yet coz you can't use me" :( Tony

Doesn't say "hey don't buy me yet coz you can't use me" :( Tony the store page says Requires DCS World version 1.5 or 2.0.3!. DCS 2.0.3 is planned to be released tomorrow. Current version is 2.0.2.
Techy111 Posted July 28, 2016 Author Posted July 28, 2016 Thanks mate, How am I supposed to know that though ? Does NOT say on the store to wait for patch, A small warning would of been nice. Ticket raised. Tony

Tony On the ED-Store page stand Early Access - sorry, but when you not know what is it, you should not by an early version of any software!

Techy111 Posted July 28, 2016 Author Posted July 28, 2016 Totally unfair comment, I always buy "early access" But and a BIG but, where is the warning not to buy until patch comes out, because in this case there is no "access" is there? Tony

Techy111 Posted July 28, 2016 Author Posted July 28, 2016 Yup ASSUME works in this case, but as I said it is misleading, A simple "please wait for patch" would of been good. Simple...lol thats me........! Tony
El Hadji Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 Not to sound like a douche, but I really don't understand what is misleading about it? The store page quite clearly says: "Requires DCS World version 1.5 or 2.0.3!" high-lighted in red at the very top of the page. So there is no need to assume anything really. It doesn't work unless you have either DCS 1.5 or 2.0.3. It is like saying "this software requires a Dx11 capable GPU" or "this software needs a 64bit OS". I don't see how ED could be any more clear about the requirements to be honest.

Tony It has to be made available with an update for DCS World to support a new module. As DCS World has 2 versions until the Caucasus map is converted and brought up to date, then the module's release is simply dependent on having the most recently updated version, which this time happened to be 1.5.4, which is entirely free to download and install. Had it been released only on 2.0.3, and not 1.5.4, I could understand your annoyance - if you didn't own the NTTR map, which you'd need to own for 2.0.3 to function. It therefore isn't logical that you can complain about having to wait - you didn't, you could simply have downloaded and installed 1.5.4 and had immediate access to the pre-release F-5E-3. If you didn't understand that, then really, I'd suggest pre-release purchases are not what you should be buying. The purpose of them is to expose the modules to testing in a public domain, before the full release happens. Basically, you enter into the testing environment knowing there are snags and shortcomings, and by purchasing pre-release software, you get it warts and all.
