Hog_No32 Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Depending how ED are implementing their release schedules and planning, a release once a month doesn't have to slow down development. It can even speed up the progress if done right. A welcome change if you ask me compared to what it used to be. Agree. Especially since we‘re having a whole lot more features in our Hornet now compared to the early days of early access. Definitely not near feature-complete yet but it can already perform many different missions very well. Personally, for me the only big feature that is missing and limiting me in my mission design is the ATFLIR. I am more a mud-mover than a dogfighter, hence my preference :smilewink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED Team Wags Posted April 10, 2019 ED Team Share Posted April 10, 2019 Or are working on stuff that is quite complex and needs a lot of time than some new weapons do (e.g. TGP or A-G radar). Correct, and even so, we are generally releasing a new feature every two weeks. To say the Hornet development is slowing down is rather baffling.

Harlikwin Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Yeah, Jesus guys, the F18 is the gold standard for EA development at this point. No other plane even really compares aside from perhaps the F14, but it was largely feature complete on release. I mean take a look at what some of the other EA planes (cough not mentioning names) have got in the last 3 months, a few bug fixes and minor improvements.

dorianR666 Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 No, it's not really that reasonable, the Hornet is a priority right now, only devs that are free of tasks on the Hornet are working on the Viper. Hornet activity is still just as heavy as ever, not sure why the worry now. thanks for answer, im happy to hear that. i didnt mean it to sound rude or anything, im fully content with the speed of hornet development.

Deano87 Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 It was a legitimate question...:sly: Not Really. It's been explained why the Hornet has gone to monthly updates and it's been explained that people who are no longer working on the F-18 are the ones currently working on the F-16. The F-18 will happen as fast as it happens. And the F-18 has actually had a bunch of work done on it recently so its not like nothing has happened to it like say... the Yak-52 lol. Just Chill and enjoy it as it happens.

KeyserSozeKillz Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 HARMS HARMS seemed to be bugged now, They loft way up, lose energy and don't hit their targets most of the time. They also glitch and wobble in flight. Working on track files now to report the bug. Didn't see anything in the release notes indicating changes to the HARMS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baco Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I sometimes Rant! but i can see how difficult it is to manage development! Dam if you do, Dam if you dont! LOL. Anyway if it´s of any value, mi opinion is that ED is really improving. Better Quality control, better methods, better communication... I really see the Monthly updates policy as a huge step forward. And whoever thinks this is slower, is a bit confused. Monthly updates can include several items so the same as two or four weekly updates. Only this way is better tested and they don´t have to come back to fix anything mayor that would delay being able to adress new features...

You do things slowly and carefully once, or you do rushed out things twice or three times ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparrow11 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I also have observed strange behaviour from HARMS. Even at short range they will loft high and they don't seem as reliable as before.

FalconPlot16 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 So next big update will be Atflir ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathAngel1 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 I wish you be right, but I think its not be ATFLIR. First ED need to finish all HARM modes (pre-brief mode is remaining). And after that I think we can hope for LITENING pod, it will come before ATFLIR. ..:NAVY PILOTS ARE THE THE BEST PILOTS:.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorianR666 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 So next big update will be Atflir ? highly unlikely wags said that development of litening pod will start after harm is finished (which has not yet happened) and after litening is done, atflir will come. which means that litening is months away and atflir even more so.

Deano87 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 The litening from A10C ? Essentially, yes. We are getting that as a stop-gap until the new thermal imaging rendering engine is completed which will come out with the ATFlIR.

Silver_Dragon Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Wags has not put FLIR updates on the Hornet update and no news about them. Dont expected them meanwhile ED team dont get a update about technology develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarbonFox Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Pretty sure the things that are taking immediate priority from what has been said is finishing the HARM and getting TWS implemented. This will be followed by the LITENING pod. ATFLIR still looks alittle ways off. I'm hoping that AutoIFF is also in the near future.
