Weasel Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 The new dynamic weather looks awesome and very promising. Really looking forward to DCS 2.8 and beyond. Thank you ED for your effort and passion 7

VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Finally some news on the weather. However, there are no further news on other things I care about. 1 I Fly, Therefore I Am.

CommandT Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) Main question I have is - will it be possible to have different weather conditions in different parts of the map, or is it just the general theme that will change slightly depending on the wind etc over the entirety of the map? What we really need is the ability to have totally different weather conditions in different parts of the map, and have them change. And most importantly (which is driving lots of us insane I'm sure) to have different winds in different parts of the map. I should not be punished for having 30kts of wind i nthe middle of the desert just because I want to have 30kts in the middle of the sea for my carrier... Edited October 14, 2022 by CommandT 4
jurinko Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 I guess big patches of different weather rolling through the map. Curious about how many settings and sliders will be available. 2.8 this week or 2.8 news this week? 1

There’s no reason not to use it in the maps we have. I was trying to undercut those arguments before they were made. 1

PLUTON Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Thank you for all this news hope DCS 2.8 very soon because for me personally the immersion and the most important point in this simulation. 1

twistking Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 The La-7 is a nice surprise. Will it have a damage-model comparable to the other warbirds? I'm asking because the I-16 doesn't have one still - if i'm not mistaken. 1 My improved* wishlist after a decade with DCS *now with 17% more wishes compared to the original
Lt. Scribbles Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Since two modules (3rd party) have the mach cone. Can we expect it on ED modules too with this update?

Is a "true" weather simulation also still planned for later? I mean something like the legacy dynamic weather with high/low pressure area simulation (but improved of course, because the legacy model was a bit rubbish)? 3 My improved* wishlist after a decade with DCS *now with 17% more wishes compared to the original
