FoxTwo Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 2.5.6 with improved lighting...nice! Likely but temper your expectations. Regression bugs happen all the time, and introducing lighting engine changes isn't a small thing. Big push for 2.5.6 is probably the supercarrier so anything that impacts that EA release will be moved out if it causes a delay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philkensebben Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Hope for the Vulkan implementation @ micsmotionsimulator For what it's worth having worked closely with software development for years I'd expect a big undertaking like Vulkan to be a 2.X release like a 2.6 or even a 3.0 to some extent as it's a large re-write.

Airhunter Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Did I understand it correctly that the next patch will be 2.5.6 and we will have to wait until "early February" for any fixes, or new features for the Hornet/F16? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willie Nelson Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Love the idea of searchlights but from the pictures it looks more like a white laser in clear skies which seems somewhat unrealistic.
