Bremspropeller Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 Does the OZ map include Timor/ parts of Indonesia? That would kind of increase it's playing-value by a lot. 8 So ein Feuerball, JUNGE!
Semor76 Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 I think ED is making progress here. Normaly they release planes without context, now they release a map without any kind of context. 11
YoYo Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 (edited) With this map I'll be on hold on position ;), but what about more anticipated and needed map - DCS: Vietnam ??? It could be first day purchase for many. We are asking about it from years F-5, F-4, MiG-21, A-7, A-6, MiG-17 etc ..... you have or will have stuff for this map, so why no any news about it still ?

I can understand why some other's might not, but I love it. Australia is a surprise. I admit to having a laugh when I read that. When's it due, Q3 2026? 9 Some of the planes, but all of the maps!
jojyrocks Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 Top end of Australian map!? I do not know if it would even the pay value than Nevada NTTR. I have the Nevada map...its a famous place, well known for Red Flag campaigns at the very least. But just the Top end of Australia map... I was hoping for some ME/Iraq or Vietnam map. 5
VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 Don't get me wrong, NTTR is the best performing map out there. Super smooth frame rate. A must have if you wish to be a Top Gun. The thing is, I really do not see the point of having this map, or may be it is just me... 3 I Fly, Therefore I Am.

Repth Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 (edited) If the goal is a world map and they have a team ready to do Australia, then why wait? You may not be excited but, I bet the Australian fan base is extactic to have a map they can relate too. Edited August 26, 2022 by Repth 6
Exorcet Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 There is nothing wrong with an Australian map, especially considering the tension between there and China. Maps likely aren't picked at random either, if we're getting Australia over Vietnam I'd bet part of the reason is that it's easier to make an Australian map. 5 Awaiting: DCS F-15C Win 10 i5-9600KF 4.6 GHz 64 GB RAM RTX2080Ti 11GB -- Win 7 64 i5-6600K 3.6 GHz 32 GB RAM GTX970 4GB -- A-10C, F-5E, Su-27, F-15C, F-14B, F-16C missions in User Files

Kayos Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 Don't see a point in this map. DCS is coming out with too many maps now. They should just stop until they have the world done. And where is a Vietnam map? 7 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Peter5on Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 Maps and modules are all over the place in this simulator, i know its dcs WORLD but still. At least that Enigma multiplayer server might be the first iteration of dynamic campaign. That's the only thing that i need and vulcan. About the maps we have plenty of them already, as mention many times by others we need Vietnam and Korea for current period and for Mig-15 vs Sabre. I don't have any idea what i would do in Australia map, for training i have Nevada. 3 1
Badger1-1 Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 I think, they managed to shorten the process of making a map therefor allowing 3rdparties to buy in and making maps much faster then before 1

Besides the on going tensions between Australia and China: https://www.9news.com.au/national/aukus-submarine-deal-uk-australia-us-china/ca83691b-c5c5-4969-bc60-3f597e1aeea7 There has been historical tension between Australia and Indonesia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia–Indonesia_relations It's not like nothing is happening over in that part of the world. Even without these things, it's a landmass of a nation that has used various DCS modules (Sabre, Hornet, Mustang). It's not some random location in the middle of nowhere. 6 minutes ago, Kayos said: DCS is coming out with too many maps now. They should just stop until they have the world done. This doesn't make any sense. Maps sell and some people want more variety. How close is the world to being done anyway? No one knows. 6 minutes ago, Kayos said: And where is a Vietnam map? As I said before, that may not even be possible to do well currently. 6 Awaiting: DCS F-15C Win 10 i5-9600KF 4.6 GHz 64 GB RAM RTX2080Ti 11GB -- Win 7 64 i5-6600K 3.6 GHz 32 GB RAM GTX970 4GB -- A-10C, F-5E, Su-27, F-15C, F-14B, F-16C missions in User Files
X-31_VECTOR Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 I get the sense that if a third-party developer can meet the technical and quality requirements, they can create a map of just about anywhere in the world as far as ED is concerned. That's not a bad thing of course, assuming it does not tax ED resources, as in the end the DCS community will vote with its wallets. If someone wants to make a West Virginia/Kentucky map to recreate the war of the Hatfields and the McCoys, I guess we'll have the option to buy one. I wonder to what extent the success of the South Atlantic map is driving third party developers to take more leaps of faith on passion projects. I was very dubious of that one when it was announced, but it wound up being a day one purchase for me. 3
