no apache, not going to lie disappointed as it was mentioned that the C scan and link ect would be in the next (this ) update

Perhaps there are some mechanics for the Kola map, no idea. But the list of fixes is really underwhelming.

That looks like ED were obliged to release Kola on a certain date, and pushed it out with a simple hotfix, whilst saving the real update for 2 weeks

This is not a 'true' DCS update, it's a map release. The new updates cycle has 6 weeks between updates. Last update was on the 10th of April, so the next 'true' update should be in about 3 weeks.

How long do we have to wait till the F16 is playable again? Couldn't read anything about fixing all the bugs making it impossible to play the F16 WW Campaign (AG-Weapons, TGP, INS Offset, Markpoints, AGM boresighting, HARM Object disappears, and much, much more).

It looks like we have to wait till the F4 release? Would be a bummer, but otherwise I can't explain myself why we have to wait so long for some fixes for the F16. Most AG weapons have a bug, and some are not usable right now (AGM 65 D).

If this is the new "better" update procedure (only one release candidate for all), please give us the old one back (Stable and Beta). My feeling is the Stable, right now, is much worse than the Beta ever was (F16).

What does ED do? Just what they said, an update every 4 to 6 weeks so don't grumble and let them do their job because at the moment they are doing it well.
Have a good flight gentlemen🤗

Sorry, but that isn't an argument at all if the module, which worked well since months, suddenly isn't nearly playable after 1 patch and 2 "Hotfixes".

4 - 6 Weeks to wait because ED "destroyed" the whole Module? That's a bad joke, isn't it?

The F16 isn't even usable anymore. The TGP is completely broken. And the best part is, we were told to use it to fix the new INS drift (as I know only the F16 got this behavior right now) with all GPS weapons. But wait, the best part is, the TGP has a kind of INS drift too. Good work? I wouldn't say so.

Go to the F16 Bug-Forum and read about all the game breaking bugs. Never ever before, we had so many game breaking bugs, but we have to wait 4-6 weeks for a "Fix"?

That must be a kind of humor I am unable to understand.

I think it's been clear that is was Kola map release patch. And not part of the main patching schedule.

Yeah with a six week update frequency, next update was not sheduled before end of may, so there isn't anything to complain about.

I (naivly) hoped for a surprice release of the F-4 Phantom and maybe fixes and additions that might have been ready to be added, but it´s unfair to be disappointed.

My best guess would be they're heavily involved with Heatblur in getting the core adjusted to perform with all the eye candy that will come with the F-4.

It seems like some of the campaign updates from the changelog didn't make it into the patch (interactive checklists). Will there be a hotfix next week to include those? Thanks.

Strange I will ask the team to check, however not something that would be a hotfix.

Current version number: 2.9.4.53990

Next planned update: Delayed until 22nd May 2024 

Dear all,

during final checks some blocking issues were found and we will require some time to resolve them. We want the F-4E launch to be the best experience it can be so delaying for one day is the best option, thank you for your understanding and patience.
