XtraChrisP Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 ...because it looks like the F-14 is not going to work very well on the Super Carrier for the foreseeable future. Not being snarky, genuinely curious because I don't know: what are you basing this on?
sLYFa Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 I'm suspect HB uses the same methods for carrier launch and recovery features as the default Stennis, which means that a Forrestal released now would be just as broken as the Stennis. EDIT: Or are you talking about the upcoming SC module? i5-8600k @4.9Ghz, 2080ti , 32GB@2666Mhz, 512GB SSD

EDIT: Or are you talking about the upcoming SC module? yep, SC will not be functional for F-14 until release state. I would guess release state is a year away.
sLYFa Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Well to be fair Wags said they will try their best to provide limited functionality for the F-14 as soon as possible during EA. i5-8600k @4.9Ghz, 2080ti , 32GB@2666Mhz, 512GB SSD
Blinde Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Great. :doh: I'm out of this EA thing when it comes to DCS World.
nicka117 Posted March 19, 2020 Author Posted March 19, 2020 Well to be fair Wags said they will try their best to provide limited functionality for the F-14 as soon as possible during EA. Fair enough, but I've learned to manage my expectations with the: "coming soon" "making great progress" "we'll do our best" ..etc. Most F-14 drivers that prepaid for the module will be disappointed. Thus, maybe the Forrestal will be fun to use until release state. But, maybe the Forrestal is still a number of months away....who knows.
WOPR Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 I'm looking forward to the Forrestal and the Super Carrier, but we can still use the Stennis for the Tomcat. It's disappointing, not game breaking.
Mr. Big.Biggs Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Iron Mike is on another thread says the F14 and Super Carrier will work together just fine FYI. Of course there are folks telling him he’s wrong.... I9 (5Ghz turbo)2080ti 64Gb 3200 ram. 3 drives. A sata 2tb storage and 2 M.2 drives. 1 is 1tb, 1 is 500gb.

Mr. Big.Biggs Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 IronMike hasn't said anything for a month now. HB has been pretty quiet about everything lately. Perhaps an older thread.

Ickx Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 yep, SC will not be functional for F-14 until release state. I would guess release state is a year away. So pretty much never then. Well, can only blame myself for being fooled by the pre order con.
Phantom88 Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 As a Happy Customer of both HB and ED I'd Love to know more on this issue. Patrick
statrekmike Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 So pretty much never then. Well, can only blame myself for being fooled by the pre order con. Oh please. If it was a "pre-order con", they wouldn't have so clearly laid out their intentions and what issues they are dealing with right now and in the near future.

Wizard_03 Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Based on recents events, I'm not really keeping my hopes up. The whole game is such a mess. Yeah same, there seems to be a disconnect between the "news" we get, and what we actually get. Both from third parts and ED as well. DCS F/A-18C :sorcerer:
DBFlyguy Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Yeah, I was considering the Supercarrier module but since they (ED) can't figure out how to properly integrate the Tomcat, its a hard pass. I'll wait for the Forrestal. "Straighten up and fly right"
Wizard_03 Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 (edited) Sad to say, I've supported these guys from the beginning. They started out strong with the F-14 release last year, and I thought we were on track to finally brake the Multi-year endless EA cycle. But since then haven't seen them make good on any of the missing features. Let alone, simple things that have been wrong since day 1: Aim-9 Rails still aren't textured, wrong engine instruments, no OBC, and half a dozen other minor things besides showboat features stated on the store page, and their most recent newsletter. I understand bug fixing takes priority but TBH I've lost confidence in this team. The statements made by them regrading super carrier module compatibility feel like outright falsehoods, and not a single thing listed on their quarterly newsletter has been added to the game, not one thing...

Blinde Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 +1 You said it. The module itself is superb but these missing things that are ignored are hard to ignore.

You may be underestimating just how much of a problem Bug chasing is. How many new bugs have come up between the F-14 EA release and now? Heck how many in the last MONTH? There's only so many work hours in a day. If the DCS core was a locked down product, I could see a complaint, but the core is constantly being changed and pumping out new surprises that Heatblur doesn't even find out about until the patch drops.
