StandingCow Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 So that means not this year :( Since that isn't ample warning. Stop it, it means exactly what he said, between December 21st to March 20th. 5900X - 32 GB 3600 RAM - 1080TI My Twitch Channel ~Moo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dino Might Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Dumpster fire commencing in 3....2.... So, in an attempt to avoid the previous derailment, let's try to understand that the release date discussions are here for people to have fun with the anticipation. If you want to come in with your complaints or to crap on someone's positivity, please go elsewhere, or I will have to start posting a bunch of Frozen memes, since my 2 year old now has me watching that every day. As for my contribution. A question. What theme, format, etc do you think the release trailer will be? Do you think it will drop day of, or some amount of time in advance?

Cann0nF0dd3r Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 So that means not this year :( Since that isn't ample warning. STOP IT! It means what it says, Winter, which runs from December 2018 to March 2019. At worst you're talking 3.5 months. Its not a big deal seriously.

Its not a big deal seriously. To be fair he is only speculating, no need to ring his neck. It literally says in the OP this is a place for speculation. So i’d Imagine that allows both optimism and pessimism regardless of if it’s what you like or not? Just trying to keep this civilised before the whole ‘toxic’ thing starts getting thrown around because someone isn’t positive in regards to the F-14’s release.

StandingCow Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 As far as guessing a day, I say late January. That gives the devs more time and eases the release pressure they would face over the holidays if it came out before Christmas. 5900X - 32 GB 3600 RAM - 1080TI My Twitch Channel ~Moo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to ring anybody's neck but the toxicity starts when people start to read too much into things and "interpret" what somebody meant, then get upset when their conclusion doesn't happen and blame the dev for it.

Dino Might Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) My condolences. Different. Not your typical cinematic style. We're remixing a very specific song for it, even, together with Meteor. Going to be fun :) Well, I like the ice cutting song and when Elsa headshots Anna, makes me laugh every time. But yeah, the plot seems like it was written via "Twitch plays Disney movie." I digress... So not typical cinematic. But I don't know what typical cinematic is... Remixed song, hmmm. Most of the Meteor stuff has been very 80s nostalgia, but if you are flipping the script, I'm going to guess: You're using some real life walk around video, and then quick transition back and forth with the module in the same position/aspect/walk around motion, showing off the true to form visuals, the ultimate extension of the "real or DCS" screenshot game. Song is electric guitar of a piece of classical music. Could tie in some documentary style interview voiceovers in there. Or, and bear with me here: You do static Tomcat with animated deck crew in front, dancing around to an electric guitar remix of "In the Navy." Do a few different sequences from different angles, kind of like the credits roll in the movie, "Down Periscope." The latter gets my vote, but I'm a bit on the silly side when it comes to this stuff.

nicka117 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 If we are just doing fun speculation, my bet would be an open beta release on a wednesday in mid to late Feb. Don’t think they’ll need to wait until March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reilly Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) Differently... A shot for shot recreation of the opening engagement from Top Gun with a remix of the Top Gun anthem + Danger Zone as to avoid copyright issues. This then transitions forward to Mavericks love tantrum and hasty motorcycle riding where the currently unannounced DCS: Kawasaki GPZ 900r module is revealed. This is then followed by a demonstration of the deck crew and pilot animation tech, displayed in all of its glory in a faithful but PG recreation of everyone's favourite "Take my Breath Away" segment.

Eight Ball Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 If anything, I think we can all agree on that we should be pitchforked to death at dawn if we don't deliver this winter or the F-14 just flat out sucks. Give us a chance to make do on both of those promises. Could we do this in the afternoon? I usually sleep at dawn and my doctor says I shouldn't be lynching on a empty stomach. Different.

WarHawk72 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Thank you Cobra for the update, i wish you and your family a great Christmas and please do take some time off over the holidays. Time fly's as you get older, this year is pretty much just a blur so 14+ weeks is nothing. Will be looking forward to seeing some YouTubers making videos over the next couple of months leading up to the release. Appreciate all of HB's hard work over the year, keep on target...your almost there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuiGon Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) Based on previous experiences with release frames in regards to DCS and especially to Heatblur, I would expect March 20th as the open beta release date :P No hard feelings, I'm totally fine with that, just mocking you guys @HB a bit ;) I will never forget when Cobra once announced that there will be a dev update before the end of the year and a couple of weeks (or was it months even?) after that announcement he released the dev update true to his words on the 31st of December at 11:30 P.M. (CET) :D Edited December 14, 2018 by QuiGon 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!

fl0w Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Harmless speculation is nothing to worry about, but when you start making assumptions and criticizing Heatblur because they didn't meet your expectations rather than what they promised as a deadline, that's where you start to cross the line. If Heatblur releases the module earlier than what is promised, then that is more than a bargain and we should be grateful for that. Otherwise, let's just sit tight and wait while we play some of their F-14 OST. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
