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. Is the changelog posted up or will there be major deviations overnight meaning its top secret for a further day? 1 74_Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scatlet-565 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 For future reference: especially for 3rd party modules, promised release dates should be the highest priority. Updates should be pushed separately from module releases. The F-4E should have launched today on its own as it had no bearing on the core update, then in the coming days/weeks said update is pushed when it's ready. And the fact Heatblur was not informed ahead of the delay being made is abhorrent behavior. They have gone above and beyond with their transparency over the course of developing this module, all for this: being targeted and accused for a last-second delay that was not their fault and they had no time to prepare their own statement about. What will be done to compensate these devs for the abuse they've been getting over the last hours? Do better ED, do a lot better. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotdognz Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 So if all the YTubers can get the F-4E (Sidekick just got it yesterday im guessing) why cant they just release the F-4E module to the rest of the paying customers and leave the unstable patch out of its release and work on that until its stable, seems like its still able to be rolled out as a stand alone module to those who payed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted May 22 Author ED Team Share Posted May 22 The issues were found by QA in final checks and was not module related, they have been working hard to fix them and we will hopefully have the patch today the 22nd, if anything changes I will edit the patch status post in my signature below. thanks 4 2 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Hotdognz Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Ay I know that it was the patch that was the issue and I'm happy to wait for bugs to be fixed found in any patch. What im saying is why don't ED just release F-4E the module to all the accounts that purchased it as its certainly been released to certain accounts that YTubers hold so my guess it could be rolled out to everyone who purchased it with a minor update patch for everyone, I think this would be even more important especially if we get another delay.

Modules released without major patches (Like Kola had) Patches released without major modules This would really help ED improve what I would call a burnt reputation this year and maybe help claw back to the heyday of ED around the release of 2.9 and also keep module dates separate from big patches and the issues that can eventuate on release day 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More with a blocking bug with will affect to the core or / and sofware / hardware / other module can break the simulator (the actual situation). 39 minutes ago, Hotdognz said: Ay I know that it was the patch that was the issue and I'm happy to wait for bugs to be fixed found in any patch.

The module releases no only required the integration with the core, require some security archives hardcoded.... and that has no over control of a 3rd party. That is not a magic botton "on and off" to the purchasers, that has enabled by the ED DCS World autentification servers with points to specific path versions. 1 hour ago, Hotdognz said: So if all the YTubers can get the F-4E (Sidekick just got it yesterday im guessing) why cant they just release the F-4E module to the rest of the paying customers and leave the unstable patch out of its release and work on that until its stable, seems like its still able to be rolled out as a stand alone module to those who payed. The Youtube versions has no only a "install the F-4E module and fly them, to angry the costumers" .... That has DCS World specific versions, no related with the actual DCS World release version, with have integrated the F-4E (The same version with see on the Wags videos), some develop patch ahead, to develop only. Someone remember with Bignegy, Wags or other members of ED team talking about 4-5 DCS version instaled for Testing / Develop proposes?

Preview builds are from an earlier version. Now you will say why didnt you use the earlier version, it does not work like that, we have made changes and fixes in the future builds. Currently QA are doing final checks and if all goes to plan today 22nd, around 15:00 ZULU we will have a patch. 7 Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

Eldur Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 (edited) Meanwhile, why don't you go over to Meteor's bandcamp and drop him some nice $6.90 at least for the amazing soundtrack he made for the module and enjoy that until the update is ready unless you got the vinyl already?
