Don't wait for news. I myself have already lost hope. I believe Kiowa should be released around December. If all goes well. Now I really wanted a newsletter to let us know how the project is going. It doesn't need to have dates. Just to calm the community down.

There will be no further updates from PC.  Additionally, any opinions that expresses disappointment will ensure this thread also gets locked.  

 

It's best to just forget the Kiowa and be surprised when it shows up within the next 40 years.

Against better odds I'll try to lift your mood: one of the devs literally said today that they currently fixing performance values in cruise at all available alts and temperatures, including some nuances that the SMEs came up with.

That’s horrible. I would hate to have something that you work on so hard just to be criticized.

yup, only takes a handful of jerks to ruin it for everyone else. Gotta love toxic community members.

The progress on this module is the same as every one I have been excited about: always too slow!

 

Let me elaborate,

 

The quality of any module on DCS blows away any other simulator out there. I have tried many of them.  I don’t think ANY module I have been excited about (by any developer) has made the initial, or even updated, timetables for release. Every one of them has exceeded my expectations. I don’t have all of them, but many. Every one has been worth the wait. My biggest concern is project cancellation (P-40). 
 

The Kiowa is one of the modules I am most excited about, I am a wannabe Scout pilot that only managed to fly UH-60s. But I can get a taste when this comes out. Keep up the good work and release something to be proud of when it is ready.

 

I don’t know what specific negativity there was that precipitated the comment about no further updates, but it is a shame. If the work in progress isn’t living up to expectations you have the right to not buy the module. But I know you will anyway...

 

As for me, I anxiously and patiently await Beta!

(Or full release, either way I will be Day One)

Yes, I agree. Off topic but what was your primary mission while flying UH-60’s @Trunkmunki?

I feel I should elaborate a bit though; I was fully qualified and on (literally) the day we were to head overseas on my first deployment they figured out I had a lot of civilian fixed wing time and switched me to a C-12, where I spent the remainder of my time in the Army and two deployments. 
 

I loved the helicopters but “needs of the Army” forced the change and then I got spoiled by being in a very small, largely autonomous unit that often was more like a corporate flight department than a vast military machine. Initially I planned to go back to the 60s but after a couple years I didn’t want to deal with “big Army problems.”

Not at all. It was reduced because they didn't meet their initial deadlines so they dialed back the "hypetrain" that they started to early.

I've been around too long to be surprised when a developer with a track record of a less than great overhyped module like the Gazelle fails to deliver on another project. The Gazelle was one of the poorest modules in DCS only eclipsed by the now defunct VEAO Hawk.  I really hope I'm wrong, but a developer who throws their toys out of the cot because of "negativity" (in other words any criticism) and refuses to give updates is hardly acting in a mature way.  If you develop software, criticism is par for the course, it's what drives you to do better and improve...
