T.Power Posted June 22 Posted June 22 Props to the devs, really glad I bought this in early access, the update cadence has been great and the latest colour correction plus new more detailed summer textures really help with the immersion when flying low in rotors. Thank you. 8 "For many the glass is half empty whilst for others it is half full, but for some, the milk is sour." - Unknown French Philosopher
Beirut Posted June 23 Posted June 23 Yep, this is a great map. And as it's hotter than hell here today, I'm gonna put on the fan and fly over the winter textures later. 3 Some of the planes, but all of the maps!
MBot Posted June 28 Posted June 28 Ehh... Polyarny submarine base: Olenya Guba submarine base: Gadzhiyevo submarine base: This is the key area of the theater. For a map that is supposed to leave early access on July 22, this still looks ridiculously bad. 11

This map desperately needs a quality pass to add finer details and POIs, refine the GIS data, and make everything look less like a reheated Caucasus. It appears that the team simply lacks the manpower to do this in time for leaving the EA. Hopefully, they'll get to it once the base work is done, like they did with the Falklands. 7 Dima | My DCS uploads

I choose to see the glass as half full as I'm not getting the crap bombed out of me or shot at every time I go out for groceries.

SloppyDog Posted July 12 Posted July 12 It's been a very disappointing experience for me (one more to add to the DCS World disappointments). I regret buying this map, along with the Sinai. Low resolution textures, terrible loading times. Looks ok at a distance, looks really bad at low altitude. I bought it based on the Orbx name. I believe this Orbx is not the same as the one that developed for P3D. 3
