Shaman Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 There was a rumour at our uni that if someone died you were close to, ie a house mate, then you got a free pass for the year and weren't expected to do any work, take exams etc. Just pick one of your friends, explain it all to them and ask them to "have an accident" with your PC...electricution will be fine. Then get onto your insurance company and get a brand new PC for BS. If your lucky your friend will be a bit upset with this and haunt you for the rest of your life. So you not only get to play BS, you don't have to do exams, you get a new PC, you don't really loose your friend and your friend get's a cool new ability to spy on girls without them knowing. It's a win win situation :D Regards Paul :doh: :megalol: 51PVO Founding member (DEC2007-) 100KIAP Founding member (DEC2018-) :: Shaman aka [100☭] Shamansky tail# 44 or 444 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 100KIAP Regiment Early Warning & Control officer

stealthtemplates Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Doesnt it usually take a couple of months for publishing etc. though after a game has gone GOLD? October just sounds too early :S
Eltra Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Man, those are such awesome and fantastic news from our russian friends at ED. Guys, our time has come! Yeah!!!
sobek Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Publishing usually works pretty fast, nowhere near a couple of months, what usually takes most time after gold status is disc fabrication in sufficient numbers, AFAIK Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
Shaman Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Will english release of DCS be available as web-download - same like it is with FC?

-Skipper- Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 how about a DEMO! Quote from FAQ: Q: Will there be a DCS: Black Shark demo? A: Right now our primary focus is on finishing DCS: Black Shark and making it available to you. Once this task is complete, we will evaluate the creation of a playable demo. No decision has been made at this time. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
deviletk Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 The many years of waiting is over... Congrats ED!!

DarkSoul Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 17. October? Hmm...This is my birthday date :D Thanks ED :D :D Same for me Kusch, my birthdayyyyyyy:pilotfly: Ross.. heh!! well prefer november 17t, its my birthday :D
telepathiclove Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Finally! It's about time! I am glad because although it was a long wait, I think it has probably been long enough that they will manage to get a solid game out and it won't be full of bugs. Hopefully. Seems like a good amount of time. I did wonder how much longer it was going to take, because after looking at all the media recently, it looked pretty finished. I hope the various localisation can be done pretty fast.
Doggy Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 ...I'm happy it's not on my bithday, 17th Feb (2009) :P Congrats ED!!!

stswrebel Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Well if they get the US release right, I'll be able to do my flying while I'm off work caring for my first child:D, who is due to be here around the end of this month. I'm realy happy to hear that it's finaly time to do some serious helo simming. :joystick: Which will be followed by some serious helo crashing. The above has been based loosely upon my own opinions. :pilotfly:

element1108 Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Demo shmemo, demo's are never as good as the real thing anyway. If you're going to crash into it, might as well go ALL the WAY. I've noticed a lot of highly anticipated games skip the playable demo before release. Depends on priorities I guess. I personally am not interested in a demo from what I've seen from the extensive producers notes and video's made by the team. Bring on the full version...no matter the cost! *** :) :) : )

Bucic Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Demo shmemo, demo's are never as good as the real thing anyway. Leave this "problem" to those who would like to play demo before buying the sim. I'm sure everyone can come up with their own demo/final coefficient ;) F-5E simpit cockpit dimensions and flight controls Kill the Bloom - shader glow mod Poor audio Doppler effect in DCS [bug] Trees - huge performance hit especially up close

graywo1fg Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 (edited) it would be a waste of time for the Devs to make a Demo now when the game will be out for everyone in a month. ** edit read the official announcment and i stand corrected.... i am sorry :( Edited October 8, 2008 by graywo1fg 1 Voice of Jester AI Death From Above =DFA= Squadron Discord - https://discord.gg/deathfromabove http://www.twitch.tv/graywo1f https://www.youtube.com/user/Lonewo1fg
Stratos Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Congratulations to ED and to all the community, the wait is finally over guys! Get ready for some real simming action!! I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
DTWD Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Has anyone got an idea on price? I am going to go down the digital download route if it's available (depending on copy protection method). There are quite a few games out this month and I need get budgeting, especially if BS runs like a dog and I need to upgrade the PC. Regards Paul Regards [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
-Skipper- Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 it would be a waste of time for the Devs to make a Demo now when the game will be out for everyone in a month. Well, as you can see from the statements here, it wouldn't, as there are many people out there, who would like to test if their system is capable of running the game BEFORE buying it. A prerelease-demo on the other hand, would have pushed back the release, I guess, considering that ED is a rather small team of developers and Demo and Game would have had to be finished parallel. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
element1108 Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 it's easy enough to ask within the beta test community how it ran on their setups. It should be expected on full detail for everything on highest rez it may need a high end system. Demos aren't historically accurate in determining what frame rates you could be getting. One will surely drop just need to wait a bit longer.
