Flagrum Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Sorry about the nagging but can we get that info pretty soon please? If it is really only for Mi8 15$ is way too steep for me. But if it gets integrated into other modules without making me rebuy it's a different thing. Bottomline, we really need to know if we are to buy this. I am not buying it on a hint / assumption only to get burned later. I own all DCS modules and adding another 'buy' for a bunch of modules would ruin me. :) The thing is, you are not forced to purchase it now and waiting until some more info shows up seems to be a viable option ...?

joey45 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Awesome, will wait for more aircraft for it tho. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

SkateZilla Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 (edited) Hm... great... I Can't wait to see modules like: UH1H Multicrew module F/A-18 Weapons Pack Caucasus 2.0 Assets Pack (Oh... Hello WWII Assets Pack) Don't see what the big deal is w/ it being a Paid-DLC. 1. The Device itself is a Paid Addon for the Mi-8 in real life, and not Part of the Aircraft's Core Function. 2. The Device is a Complex device, with it's own O/S and Functions. If you dont want GPS, dont buy it, Simple.

MikeMikeJuliet Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 By this statement in the module description: ". . .an optional add-on module for DCS World aircraft. Starting with DCS: Mi-8MTV2. . ." I would assume, with a high propability, that the module will eventually be integrated to other modules as well... Paying 15 bucks for 5 of these for different modules would be utterly absurd and an evil cashgrab. 15 bucks for a GPS for multiple aircraft down the line sounds like something I might even eventually buy into. I know it feels dumb at the outset, but we need to remember, this is not a required module to play any of the aircraft that will receive it - unlike the WWII asset pack, which you need to have in order to play any mission with said assets used. Plus, assuming this GPS will be a part of most of the older generation DCS aircraft... those were NOT getting a GPS or any other additional feature. Now, there might be a chance to get GPS navigation to the older aircraft, giving them a large boost for navigation, which in turn makes them more useful in different scenarios. I'm divided over these micro-modules, but I'm glad it doesn't seem that this is something that would at any point be required, unlike the WWII assets, or the possible future Carrier DLC. Options are not bad so long as they are not mandatory, and this is not. Regards, MikeMikeJuliet DCS Finland | SF squadron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritTorrent Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Hi guys, Anybody who's already bought this, would you mind posting the manual? I'd like to have a look at the capabilities before I purchase it. I don't think ED would have any problems with posting the manual here.

MikeMikeJuliet Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 On the other hand, the module itself is called "DCS: NS 430 Navigation System for DCS: Mi-8MTV2" I know, which is quite confusing. Still, I would argue that the description is made to complement and clarify the name... I could be wrong, I could be right... Until the officials say something, we can merely speculate. Here is hoping... DCS Finland | SF squadron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you buy this thinking it's 15$ for all airplanes, and it turns out it's 15$ for each, then devs can say it's your fault as you didn't read what you pay for. Confusing, but it is what it is.
