Phantoms Phorever. PRE-ORDER & REVEAL Trailer

[Mizzy]

One step closer to the F4-B !!

[rkk01]

So then…

… individual simulation of thousands of individual components 

Sounds like an ambitious idea - but could potentially allow “rapid” (?!) swapping out / in of the different suites of kit for different models???

Would sir like Rolls Royce engines with that?

When an athlete sets the bar higher and breaks a World Record and you think it is insurmountable, another athlete sets it even higher and gets a new World Record..., but this is not that case..., because it is about the same athlete raising the bar over and over again.
Heatblurd breaks its own records, creating new standards at the highest possible level, making other modules obsolete and forcing them to improve... as an Argentinian I can say that they are the Messi of simulation, it is a pleasure to live in these times where iconic planes are resurrected in simulation with one of the highest levels of realism and details to be enjoyed, such as the F-14 and now the F-4 Phantom... thank you for your great work and dedication.

Hi all, once more thank you so much for the overwhelming response, support and your purchases. My apologies for not having answered more in the meantime, we concentrated today to answer all your emails, help you with changes with your orders and refunds for those who are on steam etc. We're happy we managed to get through them all.

We will of course continue tomorrow. I hope I can find some time to answer more of your questions here, too.

Thank you again!

I know this might be "company secrets"

But how many have pre ordered?

[JokerMan]

This release video, the music, the camera, the whole presentation ..... man alive, it was something worthy of a repeat watch... immediately!

Best wishes with the pre-orders and of course the release. 

I have to note that the unit pricing is competitive.

We've (the community) been conditioned to accept unit prices which can lean in on the 100+ bucks side. (I accept this is a broad statement in the main).

Seeing this module/unit pre-order pricing still leaning more on the 50 buck side and given the strongly expected quality that will be delivered, this price point is very competitive  and it was enough for me to pre-order rather than wait the months needed for a discounted price to be offered.   It helps that Heatblur is a developer that enjoys my confidence (a private buying psychology comment).

Kudos to the Heatblur team.

S!

Just checking, I know the ED and Steam POs come later but will the Steam PO come before the release?

I know Steam is the Red Headed Step Child of DCS and gets everything last but its where I buy my modules then transfer to use on Standalone

Why would you do that?

This many. 

 

Accurate to within two bananas.

Wow, great features!! Hopefully many of them will make their way into other modules as well

Ha-ha-freaking-ha! MiG-21 was released how many years ago, and still it and the Mirage-2000 are the only two aircraft in the entire DCS with a functioning sun visor

Doesn't the Harrier have a sun visor, too?

I was thinking the same, but I don't know for sure.

I think it pulls down the visor on the pilot figure, but the actual view does not change. The F-15E visor works fine though, I used it last time I flew the Mudhen. The Nevada sun was mighty strong..

Estimated date to publish it on Steam?

Two-weeks? 

 

I'm also waiting for it on Steam. I guess they want to get as many sales from their own site as possible and then hand it out to ED and Steam.

[Steel Jaw]

What...can jt be pre-ordered? 

[zildac]

What...can jt be pre-ordered? 

Yes, heatblur dot com.. Pre order... It's in the vid.

When the Naval Variant comes some point in the Future
It'll either be a J or S Variant

[dsc106]

Also waiting to hear on when this will be available for steam pre-order.

And chiming in with a feature request. This manual overlay is awesome. I am requesting the ability to import a custom PDF(s) and to tab through the documents while in game. Including in VR. While the official manual looks much better than most modules I know I will still love chucks guide when it lands, and it would be very cool to be able to pull his PDF guide up in game while in VR to go through steps and reference things.

But hey I’m sure many people will be trying to land the E on a carrier day one

[RaisedByWolves]

It has a tail hooker.

But the E isn’t strong enough structurally to handle a carrier, nor are the landing gear assemblies sufficiently “beefy”.
