QuiGon Posted February 28 Posted February 28 Is there any ETA on when Evenes airbase and the nearby city of Narvik will get added to the map? I feel like they are very important for a lot of possible scenarios . Well, I definitely need them for some missions I would like to make. 1 Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

That's great to hear! 1 Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
ThePops Posted March 1 Posted March 1 I have to wonder why it takes so long. It's almost a year since it was released. I also wonder about the focus. DCS is a flight sim, a combat flight sim. What's important is airbases, airports, heliports and navaids. I mean, houses and stuff is nice to have, but it's not strictly necessary to make the map functional. The airport density is important. It has to be above a certain minimum, or the map simply will not be used, at least not online. Still, my favorite map though 2

A DCS map doesn't just need airbases, but also other military and civilian infrastucture, which can also be very relevant as military targets like power plants and such. 7 Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

But a map without (enough) airbases is useless regardless of looks. I just think it's kind of odd focusing on individual private houses and tiny roads when the basic aviation infrastructure that enable good online playing is severely lacking. It's like building an aircraft focusing on the stitching in the headrest instead of installing an engine and a prop, making the aircraft operational. It's getting better and better, but certainly not with lightspeed
