Re : Letter from ED

[Alicatt]

Thanks Wags, 27years wow never thought it was that long! While I did have Flanker it was not one I played with much, I really have to wait until the Flight Sim show at the Hilton in Birmingham in 2003 when I got handed the demo of LOMAC and met some of the dev team that built made it, also was my first experience with VR at the show. It really has come on a long way since then, while it is frustrating waiting and waiting I know it takes time, a little info now and then helps.

Looking forward to the Coming of Weeks :D

Thank you Matt for your letter. I am also a happy customer since Flanker 1.0. I loved the dogfights with the flanker as well as the A/G missions. Flanker 2.0 was a great step forwards and Lock On was a also a great highlight. I was very disappointed like many others when you postponed the hornet by the end of 2016 but I know it‘s the waiting time worth and we will get a hornet in a top quality. I am looking forward to DCS 2.5, the hornet, the carriers and many others products. I hope there will be an update about the carriers soon. Thank you ED for your effort, always going forward and always following your dream. I spent many, many hours with the Flanker and DCS world and I also will spend many hours in the future with DCS. Thank you guys for everything!

great news ....but gaming prices are through the roof sadly. I wish i could afford more modules but not going to happen at these prices :(

 

“EAT MO ChiKen”...save $

Oculus' API Doesnt Support SLi / XFire

 

Vulkan's mGPU doesn't rely on either of those technologies.

poor Wags only has 9 more posts left then he explodes :(

Something that slightly concerns me is the bit about having to rewrite all the missions and campaigns to work in 2.5

 

Does this mean that all the missions we have for 1.5 are going to be useless unless upgraded? That would be a real shame. In fact, it would be enough to make me put off updating for some time - though I suppose I could keep 1.5 either on the same pooter if it will be possible, or put it on my 2nd PC if not.

[WildBillKelsoe]

We plan to release DCS World 2.5 in the coming weeks!

 

That is great news! thanks for the letter, and really you guys give the hobby its name. here is to 27 more years of flight simming!

[MrDieing]

Thank you all ED, you don't make a game or a simulator, you make a hobby! Why is that? Because its expensive as hell! All jokes aside, worth every penny by the way and keep doing what you do, we love you!

[mytai01]

My hope is for great continued success for Eagle Dynamics!

[jvanhoog]

Thanks ED.

[Noe Neves]

I love DCS, and we ought to, yes, we zealots, thank ED for the hard work of making us fly such complex, detailed machines and historical theaters that only existed in our dreams of flying.

This news update 2.5 makes us very anxious and happy.

Thanks ED

[Vinny002]

I enjoy playing DCS world very much!!! Please keep up the hard work on making the DCS world better!! Thanks!!

 

Cheers,

Vincent

Well written and communicated. Appreciate ED keeping us informed. thank you!

[Raven68]

My reaction of course to the 2.5 ...

 

 

My days with ED began back in the Lock on era. Although my true passion is with the modern

combat aircraft I have enjoyed the WWII content almost as much. Knowing that my purchases

of the WWII go into sustaining and supporting the modern aircraft I will continue to purchase

modules and maps for that era as well.

 

Thanks for the insight Matt and a fist bump to the entire ED staff and 3rd party players for a great

product and continued success to you all! :thumbup:

ED and 3rd parties are working hard to ensure official content is ready to fly at release.

 

As for user missions...yeah, anything that involves targets in the ground is likely going to need some attention. Many areas that were previously empty fields are now heavily forested.

[Ramstein]

DCS, and all who make it all work.. Thank you for the updates and hard work, I think I can speak for all of the AKA in giving a Huge, Thank you!

[L0op8ack]

BIG news, indeed!

[Jonmarshall]

I bought every single modules to encourage DCS to grow. It always been a dream to fly as a hobby and now I can't stop thinking its going one step closer to being the best available. Thanks and keep it up. Bring on the module and patch those bugs ;) Thank you .

[beci43]

Thanks ED! :)

[Sneak69]

I been playing since I was in grade school. (I think I was in grade 4, I'm now 33). SU-27 flanker was on the library computer. I was blown away by it, even though I had no clue what I was doing. (I still don't lol!)

 

I thank you and your team for all the hard work and the many years of enjoyment you guys have provided me.

 

I am looking forward to many more decades with this great sim.

Very good news. Thanks ED :)

Thanks Wags,

Happy to say I've loved this sim since LOMAC and I'm never leaving.

Anyone >>> API means software code? Sorry, no habla.
