firmek Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Do you guys expect to stay on DCS World Open Beta for the long run or Go to stable? Thank you for the poll. It's going to be really interesting to see the results. For me at least there is really no brainer - Open Beta since years now. Simply due to: - getting the modules on a release date - getting updates as soon as possible - no major - show stoppers issues through many years of running OB F/A-18, F-16, F-14, M-2000C, A-10C, AV-8B, AJS-37 Viggen, F-5E-3, F-86F, MiG-21bis, MiG-15bis, L-39 Albatros, C-101 Aviojet, P-51D, Spitfire LF Mk. IX, Bf 109 4-K, UH-1H, Mi-8, Ka-50, NTTR, Normandy, Persian Gulf... and not enough time to fully enjoy it all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuiGon Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I only have a single DCS installation on my PC, and I switch it back and forth between stable and beta (that's very easy to do with the updater). Most of the time I'm on the beta though. Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

DarkFire Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Open beta. There have been very few occasions on which a new patch has broken something catastrophically. Additionally all my favourite MP servers operate on the beta channel so there's very little reason for me to stick with the stable version.

VZ_342 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) I’ll be on 1.5 until I can afford a complete upgrade...when I do single player on 2.1 (open beta) or 2.5 (release version)I get 10-30 fps and frequent lockups. 1.5 has zero issues and graphics are acceptable.

Simicro Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 I voted for Stable Release because I like robust and stable things.

eaglecash867 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Anyone running both Stable and Open beta is 1TB enough for both? Will I have a decent amount of room to spare. This is a 1TB Dedicated DCS World SSD I run both and I have A-10C, P-51D, AV-8B, F/A-18C, and Flaming Cliffs 3 installed (with F/A-18C only being installed for the Beta of course). The total space used up on my SSD is just under 170GB, so 1TB will be plenty of space for an SSD dedicated to only DCS.

However I can see that the vast majority prefer the Open Beta, probably to be able to fly the Hornet in Early Access I believe. DCS is never stable... makes no sense to not run the beta. Well you can force any version of the game to any other version, but being on the beta and stable and beta are the same and a new beta patch comes out you can decide if you want it or not without forcing it. Same base, more options. I am not implying that the beta is always better but it is the same as if asked do you want the base car or the same car with more options for the same amount. You don't need to use the options, but you have them, simple as that 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypc Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Open Beta always has more crashes than stable, and don't forget that it's a Beta, it's next patch could make it unplayable.

Talisman_VR Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Seems to me that the very fact we are having this poll speaks volumes! It is all very crazy that to get satisfaction and quality we have a situation of always needing the beta version of a product. Mad, mad, mad. If this is the business model then I wonder how long things can keep going this way. I am sticking with the standard release model because that is were I would expect customers to get the best quality of experience overall. But since that is not the case in my experience, I have given up on DCS for the time being and treat it as if it is in a coma. I check in and update to the standard release version every now and then to see if there is any hope for the future and then leave it alone in the hope that one day it will wake up and I can start having a good relationship with it. I certainly don't purchase any new aircraft models, no matter how hyped up the PR is. Sorry to be so down, but it is how DCS makes me feel. It is so disappointing. In short, I use other flight sim products these days and just update DCS in line with the release version. I am on the fence as to whether to delete it off my PC, but keep it on for now in the hope it will recover and perform something glorious. Happy landings, Talisman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
