C-130J Pre-purchase from the Newsletter


Recommended Posts

Posted

@Someone I originally said I was not purchasing this bird, even though I wanted it, due to ED's lack of updated ground units and features, but after listening to your Enigma interview and being a Software Engineer myself, I can hear the devotion you have in your product. Also, the details you provided on the process was insightful. So I just added the Herc to my collection on pre-order. Keep up the great work.

I also really enjoyed the interview, and it was this interview that made me buy the C-130J. I'm more excited to fly the C-130J than the MiG-29A.

This bird looks nice and promising! But hardly I have to say "no" to any purchase from a3rd party developer after the second loss of developer (first VEAO, now Razbam).

IMHO, it is very nice that ASC developer/owner has made comments this thread even though this is just a pre-order.

Ok, so idiot question. If I purchase from ASC directly will I be able to bind the key I get immediately to my account, or not until the module is released?

There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers. From the ASC website:

"Upon purchase, you'll receive your license code via email within minutes. You'll use this code to instantly activate your C-130J when it's released."

You can prove anything with facts! Fair point, well made. Cheers 😄

You can actually bind it immediately after purchase- so it activates the license on your ED account. The discord FAQ has instructions, i already bound mine to my account 🙂

of course it can't be accessed until release, but the wording there is a little confusing since it gives the impression that you have to wait until release to redeem the code, which is not the case..

There's a lot of pics and word about cargo drops and such. But not really seeing much involving dropping things like Lav's or especially infantry.
Is this not including paratrooper drops on release?

As in a "Digital combat simulator", I'd buy the "C-130 Gunship/Spooky"
This edition has Truck sim vibes and feels weird!
I bought MS flightsim through the years, but since I got into DCS I don't fly it much.
I understand the value of logistics in an armed conflict, but this is a big, (boring)  "WUT?"

Still, question: does this mod have the gunship option?  Thanks.

Not now, maybe in the future if the sale will be good, as expansion perhaps.

Ok, thank you! That’s what I was wondering. I don’t like having keys sat in my mailbox unbound, but I couldn’t find an obvious way to do it. I’ll get on discord and have a read…
