DCS World 2.0 and New Maps Discussion Thread

See. I told you. Someone always gets stabbed. :D

 

Yeah, lots of prison fights here. Shiv everywhere. :D

[upupandaway]

No offense, but "planning" a 2014 (beta) release doesn´t sound very reassuring to me - more like what we already heard last year. :D

No offense, but they weren't putting out EDGE in-game screenshots last year either....

This in 01-11-2014...

but the big gating item is currently setting up the DCS code structure to handle EDGE-based terrain data (textures, objects, DTED, etc.).

 

Sounds like it was a huge unknown considering where we are currently, BUT with the amount of pics surfacing and being in internal BETA now it seems we are now close. Until its completed we wont see NTTR visuals or any indication of release (I'm not bitching). Is this considered to be part of the base code rework also??

Please don´t take it too seriously, I just couldn´t resist to make such a comment. It´s not suposed to be any serious trolling. In fact I liked the last update very much. ;)

I am sure its all tied in, but to what extent I dont know... I cant really comment on it all as its beyond my understanding... I cant see the matrix like c0ff can :)

The News letter said it would be part of 1.3.0....

 

Now, Estimating the average time between releases.... being about 3-5 months...

 

We'd likely not see 1.2.9 Open Beta until end of July or August, with RC about a month later,

 

And 1.3.0 Open Beta Would follow around November, and RC Late in the year or very early 2015..

1.3.0. is the current map in EDGE not Nevada, of course "subject to change"

Ooops, yeah, I meant EDGE, not NTTR.

That´s assuming development progresses in a linear fashion ;)

True, they may take the Hollywood approach and reboot the series and start at 1.0.0. next patch.

I wonder if Nevada is going to be atop a spherical globe rather than Black Sea's flat plane.

[howie87]

Has everyone forgot the 1.2.10 patch?

 

Just saying... patch numbering doesn't have to only go to 9.

IIRC..the black sea map was the one pictured in recent edge screenshots that hinted a spherical earth. So... hold on to that thought.

 

I wonder if these are laid on a spherical earth... will eventually all maps be linked over the whole globe with empty spaces in between waiting to be filled.... aka more xplane, fsx style.

I did state that in bold on the bottom of my post... :music_whistling:

Just kick us while were down why don't you.:cry:

We'll wait with that until after the announcement of AT-802. :P:)

Very good point, sir!

I can dig it...

And I was alluding to an older post where I assumed the same thing and you pointed out that development progress isn´t linear. :)

Anyway, initially I just wanted to make a little funny comment. ED is doing a fine job. I don´t care too much how long it will be.

What he says. There could easily be a 1.2.10..1.2.11... On the other hand, there might never be 1.2.9 and we can go straight to 1.3.0. It's a version number, not a counter. ;)

[leafer]

Or they might just say they'll skip 1.2.9 and 1.3.0 will just be a big empty. :rolleyes:

[Boris]

I suspect that when the new engine is released, it'll be version 2.0
