Thankyou

[Zeagle]

Just began my first sortie in 2.7.    All I can say is a great big thankyou to ED. The weather is amazing. And thanks for the waypoint number in the MiG-29 HUD. Keep up the good work

[Hunter Joker]

Thx, amazing patch!

[OG84]

yep thanks a lot.
I get much less reprojection going on with 2.7.
First thing i noticed is this performance increase. Hope the cloud jittering is on prio though.
Also being on the ground in the first f16 red flag campaign mission is now finally smooth.
But I'm on the very high end hardware wise, so will only speak for myself: Good job guys and girls!

Yes, I'd like to add my thanks to the awesome ED team! Y'all have done an incredible job with this latest update. Count me as an extremely satisfied customer!

[r24]

The patch is very good, thank you!

[Hogges]

I just spent an hour aimlessly flying around and found myself continuously laughing out loud at how good this looks. Not just the clouds but also the, to my eyes, vast difference in lighting creates a simply fantastic experience! 

What a time to be in this hobby. Thank you very much to the whole team for making this a reality!

Thank you ED, nice patch so far. 

[AR_Mikeloto]

Thanks so Much for this great Job , Developers , Testers, Producers, etc. Really another step forward on the best aircraft / military simulation software

[Outlaw24]

Well ED you caught a 3 wire on this patch, good job!

[Topper81]

Thank you ED! Respect, Great job! DCS is the best and most realistic military flight sim in the world!

[LooseSeal]

Yeah I'd also say job very well done to the ED team. I started up an 'Overcast 4' over the Persian Gulf, and to be honest I wasn't expecting a huge reaction, but wow... it became immediately apparent just how much this is going to change tactical gameplay, especially once the AI has line of sight limitations. Not to mention how beautiful it is!

 

Flying over a properly cloudy land is a totally different experience. I sort of understand what it must be like to be a pilot in the RAF now, haha. Cloud, cloud and more cloud.

 

Even more than that, it's going to add a lot more variety for 3rd party campaign designers in terms of how the weather plays a part in their missions.

 

Someone commented on here recently how the weather updates were "just a cosmetic thing". They couldn't have been more wrong.

[nawarren]

Outstanding effort from all involved. It's like flying a new sim, flying in VR everything looks so much better, cockpits sharper, clouds & lighting amazing. Great job. Best patch ever!!

[silverdevil]

good job ED. my performance on a test mission i had setup prior to patch in syria. seems to be more smooth. no jitters or freezes.

[zerO_crash]

Absolutely amazing, it is simply stunning. Aside from the few minor issues, which are to be expected, this is yet another milestone for DCS. This is a whole new approach to "Photorealistic"  

[Svsmokey]

Yeah , ED merits major kudos for this patch . It is like a whole new flightsim !

I am absolutely gobsmacked !

[diveplane]

thankyou very much eagle dynamics and all the team and wags etc.  

 

clouds are a absolute  game changer and stunning , they look like mtns in the sky ,beautiful just flying around now.

 

all we need now is wet concrete runways puddles and , animated jet blast on trees bushes.

 

stunning work thankyou again.

Great work all, and free to boot!!

[C3PO]

A superb update which far exceeded the already huge expectations. Patch of the decade - this one and the last! Amazing visuals and excellent performance. Just hoping my favourite MP servers upgrade soon to feature the new clouds!

[Rogue.]

Awesome update, visually stunning in VR.

 

I was that impressed I dropped another $100 in the sale for Spitfire, Anton, Normandy, WW2 assets (my first warbird purchases) and A10C campaigns.

Thankyou ED for the new clouds and the new lighting, its a new sim! As always my gratitude will be in the form of buying some new module and/or new campaigns.

Enjoy - I took the Spit for a spin last night (literally at one point) and the new prop effects were amazing. Loved the glistening as the sunlight hit the props and moved as I turned the plane.

Great job ED

Love the new update, and no noticeable performance drop flying over Beirut low and fast and then pulling back hard and cloud chasing. Had to reduce my view distance from extreme to ultra but everything else was maxed and still getting 65 fps over Beirut and 100+ when cloud chasing.

 

Have a older system:

AMD Ryzen 7 3700X.

2070 Super.

Ram 16 gig 3200MHz.

Acer 27"  2560 x 1440p monitor with 144 refresh rate

 

But all i can say is WOW ED amazing job, i love the new update. Thank you.

You really took DCS to the next level with this one. Stellar work! Now, don't forget to CELEBRATE this achievement in the team! You should be really proud.

 

[Ayabe]

Not sure how we could ask for much more than this - incredible experience improvements with little to no performance hit(potentially even better on some systems). Way to go ED.

Only had chance for a couple of quick flights last night. Low level is incredible now, flying round the corner of a valley and straight into a bank of cloud, sh!t!
