[empeck]

Do you know the amount of fixes and additions the dev did in the last 30 days?

 

Actually no. None of us non-testers does. :music_whistling:

Good point :thumbup:

[Ryback]

It's not vaporware. Do you know the amount of fixes and additions the dev did in the last 30 days? I about choked on the list.

 

It's really funny you start to the sentence "Do you know...".. How can he? Of course he doesn't know,if he would he wouldn't think it's a vaporware, would he?

[159th_Viper]

Actually no. None of us non-testers does. :music_whistling:

 

:smilewink:

 

Lots!

 

Now you all do :thumbup:

[leafer]

Such as...?

[159th_Viper]

Such as...?

 

You and I both know that you will, apart from official announcements, not get the answer to that question. Naughty of you to even ask it in the first instance :)

 

No, you are all just gonna have to trust us when we say that work is ongoing.....yes, LOTS of it - as simple as that.

LOTS. That sounds like a lot of work, it must be quite tasking all that stuff going on. How about stuff can you describe the 'stuff'?

[Rusty_M]

Stuff: Often accompanied by nonsense. See: "stuff and nonsense". Nonsense and stuff should not be confused, as they are separate concepts. Can any of the testers elaborate on any nonsense taking place?

[MemphisBelle]

.....yes, LOTS of it - as simple as that.

 

sounds good to me...what is it? :D:D:D kidding mate :harhar:

[USAFMTL]

Fellas if we could tell you all, we would. We really would. I would love to tell you because its really is exciting for lack of a better word. And yes the "Do you know" was a poor choice of words. Yes it taking longer but I think the end result will meet or exceed your expectations. Now these are my words. I can not presume that everyone will be happy. We all know that will not happen. The testers and I AKA "The Rook" just want you to trust us.

[Krebs20]

The list is hidden inside a period somewhere on this forum! It's mark super secret.

 

Just kidding. Work is being done atm. When it's done.

[G-Lock91]

Will the posted price tag be the same?

[cichlidfan]

Work is being done atm.

 

Actually it is Sunday evening in Moscow so there probably is not any work being done right now. ;)

My word is my bond. That's what kind of NCO I am. Yes I'm retired but I will always be an NCO and I take that oath very seriously. So trust in that. If I'm wrong, I'll admit it, if I'm right, I take no credit.

Gee, I think Ive known USAFMTL probably 10 years online at Combatace. He knows me there as pcpilot. He's a good man to have on the job. How ya doin Dave? My buddies at the ranch gave me a new nickname hence the new moniker...:D

[USAFMTL]

Hey man how yeah been? Nice to see more CA people interested in DCS.

[Exorcet]

Actually it is Sunday evening in Moscow so there probably is not any work being done right now. ;)

You'd think that, but I just got done working overtime for the 6th day in a row. So hopefully everyone else is as miserable as I am and/or getting FC3 done faster.

This obviously means every plane is DCS standard, FC3 includes a world map and the moon, 4D cockpits, and a time machine so that ED could release it every October that has ever passed.

 

Or maybe I'm delusional from 12 hr work days.
