D4n Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 No but we are missing a post from them that says "On 7.10. we will release the F-14" Of course they wouldn't write that, that'd be too lame as the surprise would be gone... ;) The best companies release their products on a "special event" without announcing ahead that they will release the product on the event... (just keeping rumors "will company xyz relase product xyz on that day or not??" to keep discussion going till that day, just see Nvidia...)

unknown Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 They can't release the F-14 without ED pushing it with an update, i doubt ED will push this on a sunday evening. :music_whistling: Nineline stated the next one is planed for wednesday.

will00988 Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Im 99% sure I saw one of the Heatblur team confirm definitively that tomorrow will not be release, but I can't remember where. I think it may be somewhere in the backlog of this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver_Dragon Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) True, then next week with ED patch I guess it will release ("early alpha"). Remember the 3rd parties has not control over the pre-orders and releases. That has work of ED. If we review the same situation with the old Heatblur AJS-37, they make the famous Twitch Viggen presentation on 2016 November, 11. ED publish the Newsletter with "pre-order" on 2016 December, 23, and was "release" near 20 days after, on 2017 January. By that, we can suppose the Tomcat can be a "release" near on late November, early December 2018. Other point, the Tomcat First Flight was on 1970 December,21.

westr Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 been meaning to ask if its possible for a talented modder, someone far more talented than me to make a static object mod of these two, to place in the ME.

D4n Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 the Tomcat First Flight was on 1970 December,21. Interesting, but from the many and content-rich "development-updates" (forum threads) Heatblur posted so far I can only assume (and hope) work ("early alpha") is ~ 90-98% completed and could be ready by next week or next 2 weeks...

Jrock Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 My hope/wish/dream: They announce available for Pre-Order and Release Date. Probable reality: Tomcat will be teased/shown off with another "soon" promise and a broken heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunslinger22 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I'm not holding my hopes very high. I will enjoy the stream, but I'm not allowing myself to be let down yet again by my own expectations with what Heatblur will release. Very excited to hopefully see a complete cockpit and beautiful exteriors though! "I'm just a dude, playing a dude, disguised as another dude."

Raven68 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Yeah I have to agree, it's likely an announcement about the module being delivered to ED for internal testing and release will likely be around December once quality requirements are satisfied. And also true ED will have the final say on when we can have our hands on it.
