Beirut Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 A free gorgeous high-tech map in a brand new theater that is going to see updates and improvements. This is why DCS gets all my flightsim cash. 1 Some of the planes, but all of the maps!
Steel Jaw Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 In time it may get to where it needs to be, but for now, for me at half the VR fps, nah uh.

MrG721 Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) Is the Marianas map released for Steam version? I mean it should be, there is no reason to not be released. I had 1.1 GB of update (open beta) I'm asking because I struggle to find map in game. Can't find it in the module list or mission editor. Strange...

It's a not a part of the core game but a new module.

I had to type it in the search bar to get it: "DCS Marianas". It shows up as a free download. It wasn't in any list otherwise. 1 Some of the planes, but all of the maps!
sublime Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) The maps beautiful. Tons of b52s lined up at the airbase.. I flew a disappointing mission from Saipan in a Jeff where I never somehow encountered any enemy ac overflying all the islands(!) On a full growling server! Lol Still a great map It's the first true ocean map in DCS. Its quite vast. Idk how it stacks to other maps but it looks gigantic Edited June 30, 2021 by sublime
Ebphoto Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 The map is really nice, small, but very nice. I absolutely Love the water and textures they used for the coral reefs and rocks. It’s very convincing and looks very real. The further out to sea you go the deeper blue it gets, unless there’s a reef or something below. Going to be some blue water fights in this terrain! Can’t wait to see what people make with this.

Raisuli Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 Awesome! My dad was stationed at Tinian first when he got to the Pacific theater. Slept through a typhoon there. Nose turret gunner in B-24s. Ball turret was his alternate position. Still have his gunners manual from the 1940s.
Diesel_Thunder Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 (edited) I was stationed there for three years (04-07). My family and I enjoyed our time out there, was one of our favorite duty stations. I've been looking forward to this map ever since it was announced. Downloaded it earlier today and spent a few hours just flying around in a Huey just taking it all in and remembering the good times spent there. Frame rate was good for me, even on my old GTX 980. Great job on this map ED!!! Even found the houses we lived in while there, here's one on Naval Station Guam: Edited July 1, 2021 by Diesel_Thunder 8 PC: MSI X670E, Ryzen 9 7900X, 64GB DDR5 RAM, RTX 3090 Ti, TM Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pro Flight pedals, Opentrack Link to my Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/DieselThunderAviation Commander, 62nd Virtual Fighter Squadron Join the 62nd VFS today!
