Dr_Arrow Posted October 17, 2019 Posted October 17, 2019 I would gladly pay full price even for the updated graphics/cockpit model and bug fixes without any new systems if it just didn't take them two years to develop :(

v81 Posted October 17, 2019 Posted October 17, 2019 Just curious, how will the new Blackshark and new systems be deployed? For the facelift and fixes will it... a) Just become part of the existing BS2 module b) Be a new module free to existing BS2 owners c) Be a part of the BS3 module with the new toys 'disabled'? For the new stuff will it be... a) An addon to the BS2 module (Like the GNS430 adds to the other aircraft)? b) Be it's own new independent module Not a loaded question, just asking.

Impact Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 upper front cockpit I see something new... I cant wait to see the new pay cockpit!! https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/news/2019-07-12_KA50/ Isn't it supposed to be a free update? ------=:: I FLY BLEIFREI ::=------
Murey2 Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) So I want to ask ED, so after the long waiting for this Ka-50 to be up bar with 2.5, you said in mid 2020 to be released! Are you going to give us something full, worth waiting for?! or another crappy half full/full of bugs update?! Thanks. Edited November 2, 2019 by Murey2
Weta43 Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 So I want to ask ED, so after the long waiting for this Ka-50 to be up bar with 2.5, you said in mid 2020 to be released! are you going to give us something full the is worth waiting for?! or another crappy half full/full of bugs update?! Thanks. Interesting way to ask the question. (The first half of which is already answered over and over and over in so many threads, and the second half of which is really only a rhetorical question so you can complain about E.D., which again has been done over and over and over in so many threads that surely it's getting tiresome to type ?) I guess the answer will be what it is every time the question is asked: That you're still getting what they've said you'll get all along, which is a free update that brings the model & textures up to current standards, and the option to buy an 'upgraded*' version of the aircraft if you think the extra features warrant the spend. I'd say though, that you sound so wound up and ready to complain even before the module is released, maybe you'd do your health a favour if you stop checking this thread till the module is released and you can read what people write about it ? & Want to see me beat a dead horse ? Watch: * & by 'upgraded', I mean imaginary ;-) Cheers.
bies Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 All this 3d parts in the cockpit are going to make a big difference in VR.
RvETito Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 3D model and textures will be without nay doubt photo-realistic but I'd like to hear more about the planned paid systems update - Igla A2A missiles, missile warning system and IR jammer. https://stormbirds.blog/2019/05/31/dcs-ka-50-mi-24p-wwii-asset-pack-updates/ "See, to me that's a stupid instrument.

metzger Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 "The new Ka50 3D cockpit model is already at the texturing stage. Remember, this will be a free enhancement for existing Black Shark owners. In mid 2020 we plan to release a brand new external model along with certain new weapons and avionics systems with even greater cockpit enhancements. The product will also come with new missions, mission functionalities and gameplay. This module will be named Black Shark 3 and will be available at a substantial discount for existing Black Shark 2 owners and at full price for new users. Enjoy the screenshots below." Ok from that update from NL, I understand we will get the BS3 in mid 2020 and he explicitly says it. So the BS2 cockpit update might come earlier and surprise us for christmas :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
ebabil Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 yeah i hope they are seperate updates and texture update will come earlier than mid 2020 external model looks ok untill we get new features.

metzger Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 I am not quite sure how resource split in ED works, but as I have done some 3d max projects in the past, mostly cars and interiors, this internal cockpit model shouldn't more than a week of full time work. Add the animations, MAX 2 weeks. So I guess, they give it 1 hour a week or so, which I am fine with and not complaining as they have many other projects that they have to work on. I just fly ka50 daily and can't wait for the better look :) Thanks ED for resurrecting the only AH currently available and especially for BS3 update! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
p1t1o Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 Oh goody, time to buy BlackShark for the 3rd time! But srsly...awesome, most underrated module.

ac5 Posted November 5, 2019 Posted November 5, 2019 Can't wait too, but I find ED should not give such an upgrade for free.

It means a huge amount of work, and with the money they could recruit more staff to speed up the upgrades of DCS world..... they will be giving the graphical update for free and to make some money off of their hard work they will also be upgrading the black shark with new systems N weapons etc. so black shark 3 wont be free. eh thet rimes
