MegOhm_SD Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 P47 - vs ground and period appropriate axis AI flying adversaries... Best pick another plane or you will be sitting at the Bar in the O-Club watching the rest of us flying planes that have been released.

BuzzU Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 It would be nice if Normandy and the P-47 showed up together. I know it won't happen, but I can dream. The P-51 and P-47 and i'm as happy as a pig in slop. Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogonaut Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 that would be an awesome move by ED, nobody waiting and giving developers a hard time when will it be ready stuff and then BOOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlyforDCS Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Although I would love to see the 'Bolt in the game ASAP, it's not going to happen guys. Not like that. ED has already announced that they are focusing on the F18 after Normandy ships, and from their history they are not in the habbit of releasing two modules at the same time. My best guess for release progression is: Normandy -> F18 -> P47: Thunderbolt (Not counting third party releases here, only Eagle Dynamics).

Balzarog Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I'll be flying the P-51D because I can't yet take off in the Fw190D-9 with any consistency, and I don't own the Spitfire Mk IX or the Bf109k-4. Also, a friend sent me some screen shots of ha tussle he had in his Dora with a Spit. Lots of little holes in his wings from the .303s, but far fewer big 20mm holes. I'm not sure the .303 rifle rounds would reliably penetrate the armored cockpit of the Dora. I'm pretty sure the .50s from the Ma Duces in the Mustang would.

Chief1942 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I have the FW-190, the Me-109, the P-51, and since I pre-ordered the Normandy map and asset pack, it only seemed right I acquire the Spitfire. Now I have all the aircraft modules that I deem appropriate to the theater and I will probably be pushing up daisies before I get proficient at all of those planes, if ever. So, bring on Normandy and let the skies rock and roll.

Vectury Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I will be flying the FW-190, P51D and the Mig-21. The latter because I just love it!

You don't have to kill the pilot to kill the Dora. Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DD_Fenrir Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 You don't have to kill the pilot to kill the Dora. Indeed. My fave is blowing both the horizontal stabs and their associated elevators clean off; the ensuing gyrations are MOST entertaining... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my understanding they have a WW2 team working on the Jug already, so it could be out this year. The F-18 and Jug are being developed by different teams I think. At least thats my impression from a recent q&a vid I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaD CrC Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 This map is made for choppers. The trees feature are begging for a top mounted sight. And it is taking place in France.

The F-18 and Jug are being developed by different teams I think. At least thats my impression from a recent q&a vid I saw. Im not talking about different teams. Im talking about the release schedule. The Jug was put on hold, and was only recently restarted. Even if it is somehow completed ahead of schedule, it will still need to wait for Hornet's release. Thats just the way ED does things.

BuzzU Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Then they need to change how they do things. If the Jug is done...release it. Especially, since it should have been done already. Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brigg Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 as much as i want the jug to be released, i do think they should release the hornet first as it would only be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cthulhu68 Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 I think the P40 is the only other WWII plane we might see this year and that's waiting on new damage model last I heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzU Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 as much as i want the jug to be released, i do think they should release the hornet first as it would only be fair. That's fine. How about 1 day apart for the releases? ;) I promise to buy them both. Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzU Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 I think the P40 is the only other WWII plane we might see this year and that's waiting on new damage model last I heard. Does anybody really want to buy it and use it online? It will be suicide. Good for missions in SP and maybe online if they're made right.

John Hargreaves Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 It has to be the Spitfire first for me, then the Huey, or even the Bell 47, so I can float around and enjoy the view. I'll fly along the coastline first I think, then follow the road south from Cherbourg down the peninsula, looking for cool stuff. Bank holiday weekend, good weather forecast, garden needs work+Normandy release = big fight with wife coming, wish me luck. i7-7700K/Gigabyte RTX2080/Win10 64bit/32Gb RAM/Asus Xonar DX+Sennheiser HD380pro headphones/LG 34" UM65 @2560x1080/TM Warthog+VKB MkIV Rudder pedals/Rift CV1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndytotheD Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 The Spitfire followed closely by the P-51D. It might convince me to purchase the German modules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
