ED said "early February", so I don't expect the OB update to hit - along with 2.5.6 - until Feb 14.

Great Video from Wags.

 

 

What a great song (The Cranberries "Zombie") for such a nice video.

But the original song is better - R.I.P Dolores !

Just a little FYI, Matt (Wags) did not make the video. :)

And thanks!

 

Oh and also - the "big reveal" is not shown in the video at all. Sorry to spoil the hunt for clues.. :D

There's a lot of aircraft not in the video, and since there's probably more "eagerly awaited aircraft" than there are DCS users, it's not much of a clue.

 

In all honesty, it may turn out to be a total surprise that no one saw coming, much like the Marianas map was...but it'll be interesting to see what kind of speculation gets drummed up over the course of this year

That's part of the "core" updates that ED is working on. Was clearly stated in their Jan 20 newsletter.

"Later this year, we are looking forward to announcing an eagerly awaited aircraft for DCS World."

 

There's only one thing this can be and we all know it.

 

 

I think Deka has that one slated.

And puts the "close" in "close air support"

 

And it does even beat the Viggen at low alt flying!

 

Looking forward to the GR tutorial on how to behead an army at a single pass with lots of "WAGNEEER!" in it when they accidently chop some trees as well rdlaugh.png

beautiful video, but what this really needs isnt a cover tune- we really need to have Laobi narrate the video in his typical family-friendly manner!

 

For those unfamiliar, here he is:

you're having a lot of fun, aren't you?;)

 

I am. It's a very very slow period at work. Ya gotta admit, a Laobi narrated DCS preview video would be entertaining!
