Razorback Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Being on the Mi-24 since its first day of release I must say that I am looking forward to this update with great interest. I fly in a virtual squadron, I'm connected on many servers on Discord and many FB sites related to air simulation, DCS, and the Hind in particular. From the many discussions I've seen in the last few weeks (since November 2021) it appears that many people have the impression that the improvement of the module is quite slow, while there are still many very important things to develop. One thinks for example of a functional anti-icing system and the improvement of Petrovitch... And these are only two examples. So fingers crossed for today's possible update... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes you think this update will have anti icing or something else?

Razorback Posted January 27, 2022 Author Share Posted January 27, 2022 (edited) Because important things have been missing for months now ! When I look on the last update I am really disappointed! It seems that the Hind in really put on a a side and they can say what they want, the last updates were really limited to a module that is still in EA. The "to do list" is hudge and we have currently only limited updates. For sure, the Hind and the Apache are clearly my last two early access purchases. You want to release a module in EA, fine for me but please afterwards give us what we are entitled to expect, i.e. serious and continuous updates. Anti-icing system that still doesn't work 7 months after the release, really? Can we imagine having a proper manual one day? Maybe after the new pilot and watch modelling is finalised. Yes this is irony! I really enjoy playing DCS and I know frustrated people will always exist. The covid situation is probably not an enabling factor but it does not explain everything either. Is it really too much to ask to know the current status of Alexander's team? Are they working on another project? Would it be possible to have a simple timeline with just what is planned for the next few months? Edited January 28, 2022 by Razorback 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admiki Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) I'll confess that I am also disappointed with this latest Hind update. Altough it was me that reported that weird collective behaviour, it wasn't a game breaking bug and I would prefer Petro's voice capabilities to to get looked at. ED says that two separate teams are working on Hind and Apache, but it looks like it's "all hands on deck" for Apache release Edited January 28, 2022 by admiki 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rongor Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Just notice how long the Blackshark guys are waiting for meaningful updates and be happy with the lightspeed care the Hind enjoys... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razorback Posted February 4, 2022 Author Share Posted February 4, 2022 Finally some very good news for the Hind. Thx ED for sharing some new screenshots and to give us the reason of the last low improvements regarding the Hind. I think this kind of news was expected by many of us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avimimus Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 The thing I wonder about: B-13 rocket pods and V20 rocket pods on the same loadout? Is that supposed to be possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I found striking was the B-13 was on the inner pylon whereas currently they can only be carried on the outer ones. If we could take 4x of them we would have more boom then 4x S-24 Black Shark Den Squadron Member: We are open to new recruits, click here to check us out or apply to join! https://blacksharkden.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could take 4x of them we would have more boom then 4x S-24 I was wondering if this is just because the test-branch is more lenient (they had B8 earlier!) or because they discovered new research. Currently we can mix some of the smaller rockets and still fire them - but the ballistic computer doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
