Cathnan Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 It's been quite some time since I've heard any updates on this map. And since this is the map I'm looking forward to most, I'd like to know if there are any new updates. Especially in terms of release date. The last I news I heard anout it were 2020 with a release in early access aimed for very late 2021, and I'm wondering if this is still the plan today. 2
tosmonaute Posted June 22, 2021 Posted June 22, 2021 Yes please give us some news of the wip. Pleeeaaaassseeeeee! 1
Shrike88 Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 lol Tick Toc, Sad nothing from the dev as an update lately
rkk01 Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 Far too quiet… The Tactical Pascale vid raised expectations…!!! oh, and where’s the Sea Harrier?
Marcus Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 Im a mission builder and Im constantly getting request for the Falkland Islands Conflict... Since the release of the as we call it "The Marry Me Islands" I have started to develop this area into the Falklands as a stop gap... Would really like to know if this South Atlantic Map will be going ahead...

Would really like to know if this South Atlantic Map will be going ahead... what do you mean by "if this South Atlantic Map will be going ahead"? Building terrain is not a spectator sport or one that you get weekly updates on, its simply arduos, time consuming, very boring and extremely slow. They take years. Updates are not interesting. But you will know when its done because they'll sell it. Not very much before. Plus the terrain isnt the only thing being made for that DLC so there are interconnecting tasks. ___________________________________________________________________________ SIMPLE SCENERY SAVING * SIMPLE GROUP SAVING * SIMPLE STATIC SAVING *

If a dev is going to whet the appetite in that way it’s only natural that folks will be keyed up for more info / product release Quote Plus the terrain isnt the only thing being made for that DLC so there are interconnecting tasks. I suspect this is the difficult bit The naval assets (that we’ve seen) look a long way behind. The visual models look good, but the AI behaviour and weapons / damage modelling must be something else… Just on weapons they will need Sea Dart, Sea Cat, Sea Wolf, 4.5”, 6” and smaller calibre guns… Rapier??? 1
Baco Posted August 11, 2021 Posted August 11, 2021 There is not going top be a coherent theater just a map based on todays geography and a few assets. Period. DOnt expect much more and certenly do not take razbams word for granted LOL I was really hype on this poryect but not any more...
72Stu Posted August 11, 2021 Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) I can't see this map as much more than the Marianas, without the nice coral reefs and golf course! Just lots and lots of deep, blue ocean and some rocks to land on. Edited August 11, 2021 by 72Stu

I had little interest in the map until I heard it was extending a chunk into South America. Then I became very interested. I'm really looking forward to how well the mountain textures are done. Will they be that god awful generic stretched textures you see in some sims or will they be well crafted and delicious? Hopefully the latter. As to the point made before about the "coherent theater" of the map, for my part I couldn't care less. As long as the map is good, I'll figure out what to do with it. Some of the planes, but all of the maps!
rkk01 Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 (edited) @72Stu I’m assuming everyone here has seen the Tactical Pascale video…? https://youtu.be/oEuG9HjqcxU Edited August 12, 2021 by rkk01 1 1
Baco Posted August 13, 2021 Posted August 13, 2021 yeah Pascales video is very good but uot dated. They gave him an early buikd ti test.
Raz_Specter Posted August 15, 2021 Posted August 15, 2021 work is progress nicely on the terrain, but as you can imagine the project has grown exponentially over the period due to community feedback. The map upon release will cover 1.5 million square km. so that will be good enough IMPO. Ill try and put something together this week, no promises thanks Specter On 8/10/2021 at 4:02 PM, rkk01 said: Oh, I don’t know… the Tactical Pascale video was pretty interesting - spectacular I’d say!

GEIST Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) Looks really great! One thing that is really noticeable and hopefully easy to change is what looks like a kids drawing of grass. That's not how grass looks like irl - if you can replace that with something more realistic (and also that looks decent as a LOD it could go a long way). This is the MSFS grass. Just one alpha map that needs to be replaced and everything would look so much better. Thanks. Edited October 6, 2021 by GEIST 1

72Stu Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 Hmm, textures look poor and the opening shot looked bad. And sprawling towns just don't exist in the Falklands?! Small settlements maybe, but some of those pan shots looked like Glasgow council estates. Plus all the US stuff...should be RAF etc. Just sayin'...it WAS a teaser video.
