@This is beta, it is unstable and I simply do not understand why do you make missions for it.

 

 

I'm not sure anyone has complained about that. But surely if issues come up in the openbeta, they should be reported - isn't that the point? The concern, of course, is that they are not resolved and just go on to stable anyway.

 

 

(E.g. label transparency :(, which was broken over a year ago and has still not been fixed.)

Trying to update but it says that my version is the latest one i.e. no update yet, even though the notes are out. Is this something on my end only?

If I try to repair the install it says the version isn't available.

00003.413 ERROR: Version 2.5.6.44266 is not available.

 

Getting really tired of this

Of course bugs in open beta should be reported. I'm just saying we should wait stable release before complaining about bug reports not resolved.

Do not expect fairness.

@ataribaby This is beta, it is unstable and I simply do not understand why do you make missions for it. I would never invest my time to fix stuff broken in beta. They maybe fix the bugs and you just end up with wasted time exploring workarounds.

 

No it is not like real beta. DCS stable is just older Beta pushed into stable with same bugs. Nevertelss whole online community uses Beta as stable. That's probably not ED problem as we caused this as community.

The update is not officially even out....

 

You don't have the patience to wait for the update to be officially out, yet you are ready to complain.... you are the reason most of the community is just ignored or not taken seriously....

 

Don't even at me.... you should be mad at yourself

Well..

If I hadn´t gone into this forum, but simply had started the sim, then I would have ben greeted with a box telling that an updatre is available, and offcourse I would have updated, only to fing the very same.

But You are right - it´s probably getting fixed very soon, when it is official.

The Patchnotes are out, and as soon as I start DCS it auto updates via their own updater....

So... it's my fault, that it's broken?

Seems legit ;)

I do not know what are you doing. I've tried to enforce update without luck, it's not live yet.

I guess this demonstrates the value of the OB now. Not sure how t was not detected during closed testing. ED will get it resolved.

I feel you have done a good work in finding bugs.

 

Start a new thread with your 10 biggest issues in priority, after your opinion. Then let's see the comment's from others. After some time, you can make a vote, to see if the rest of us agree with you.

 

Purpose: To find the biggest and most annoying bugs.

It differs between comunities and use so the happy medium is hard to find, nevertheless there are crossovers. Also polls tend to be slanted towards those that engage with the community and look at DCS every day passionately, so most likely would miss some groups. Having said that in simplistic terms;

 

 

  • Light users of DCS are intested in the obvious superficial details, visuals, lighting, immersion, completeness, configuration.
  • Multiplayer PvP players in balancing (eg missiles, performance data, equality), performance
  • Server admins in server performance, script availability, tools and bugs
  • Enthusiasts in accuracy, detail of aircraft modules
  • Scripters, content providers and modders in Core bugs, ME bugs, changes.

So, whilst you could, for example, post that the "floating Statics issue" was the most important to all groups, because statics are a decorative, visual used in both quick start, lessons and DLC, affect content creators and scripting alike, I have a different opinion based on a top down impact approach, in that the core of the game content is supplied by a small minority of people writing public missions or holding public servers and that these people actually keep the fan base loyal because they provide things to do after everyone has seemingly learned how to fly offline and consumed the missions and module content.

 

Some might say this is a very subjective and limited view because every type of DCS user "catagory" (simplistic view) is valuable and the iceberg effect of the vast silent majority of the single player market is the thing mostly sustaining DCS ecomonically. However I disagree with that view!

 

The DCS model is about getting the community to propel its own testing, marketing and content by providing a sandbox and mission editor, open source code in places, allowing 3rd parties to develop and allowing moddable content and a searchable user file repository for skins, units and missions. The people that matter are those people and the squadrons and events organisers and to a certain extent Social Media contributors and YT/twitch. Everyone of these people rely on making NEW content to keep DCS interesting. And by keeping people playing day after day in Multiplayer on interesting servers doing events, people stay and buy more modules to play with.

 

And if you are still with me, the top of that community pyramid are the enablers who make content to use, whether it's a Squadron leader, Server admin, YouTube channel, skinner, modder, addon creator or scripter. You ignore these people and wreck their days at your peril! Because if they get fedup with DCS the entire pyramid comes crashing down, people lose interest, servers get worse, communities get fragmented and the self propelling style of DCS comes to a halt in between module releases. And trust me, get out of the habit of playing DCS daily and it is not like riding a bike!

 

 

So, put simply, I'd like to see airbase id's solved as a priority; else I'll be taking a break, the MOOSE channel can go to hell and peoples scripting questions can get unanswered, AI CAP can blow up on the floor, Migs can carry on spawning in at McCarran! The server admins can sit there scratching their heads, reducing their available time, ruling out playing on NTTR or using it, because it's so broken, the servers can be taken offline to roll back again, the YT'rs can have nothing to play on, the Blue Flags and the others servers with scripts can roll back again and split the community between 2.5.6 and 2.5.5 and stable (whatever version that is) and finally the players can complain about X server, and the entire thing comes tumbling down and no one watches or cares when the Super Carrier is released because they are playing something else for a break! :) Top down... core first and foremost.

I don't go check a forum whenever my games want to update themselves. If it "isn't out yet" then maybe the game should know that itself.

 

This is why apologists aren't taken seriously
