[dburne]

Still waiting here as well, have saved my joystick profiles to be safe in preparation.

[karambiatos]

FC3 the only preorder ive ever been glad to make

[Cali]

Hopefully the 27 pilots will be happy for a little bit after they get the new pit! That is some good news, so looking forward to flying it when I get back. Might have to buy it while I'm here at the $40 dollar price and not the $50 final price.

^ Eh, the Russian crybabies will come out soon enough :megalol:

[Groove]

Hey guys,

 

the installer should be avaiable next days if nothing goes wrong.

[Cali]

I wouldn't say crybabies, everyone wants the jet they fly to get upgraded. So, with the upgrade to the 27, I wonder if the 29 and 33 will follow?

[RagnarDa]

Does anyone know if it is now possible to reroute player-controlled FC3 aircrafts? It would be particularly interesting if one would be able to update the navigation route one those aircrafts since this is now not possible once the mission has started.

[Cali]

I just got the e-mail, hehe

[Geskes]

no shots of the flanker pit anywhere?

Lock On: Flaming Cliffs 3 (FC3) Update

 

Per the list above of FC3 changes, work on this module continues. However, the module will likely be in a protracted beta development stage as we create new content for it that our customers have been asking for.

 

The most noteworthy being a new 6 DOF cockpit for the Su-27 Flanker. We also plan to release a new radar mode for the MiG-29S that allows dual tracking and engagements of targets with the R-77 air-to-air missile.

 

From what i read in the replies, it seems that everybody here is expecting the new Su27 pit to be released now together with the 1.2.3 update. I hope so to but...

If you read the quote again, why is the Su27 6DOF pit not included in the first part talking about updates to the DCS modules which has a large FC3 section?

Secondly, the word about the Su27 pit comes after the phrase "Per the list above of FC3 changes, work on this module continues. However, the module will likely be in a protracted beta development stage as we create new content"

For me this means it's in the works and not to be released in this upcoming 1.2.3 patch.

 

But then again... i'm already happy with what they will bring now.

[Kuky]

Su-27 pit won't come in 1.2.3, only external model (and it is beautiful ;))

 

You read good, it's WIP and will be included in one of the later updates

[Cali]

Lange, it might not be released during that time, but they know it's coming. Looks like I'm gonna have to relearn how to fly FC all over again with all these new fixes.

[Darkwolf]

CA's ability of managing airplanes is just awesome.

 

Thank you ED for listening to your customer, you really rocks !

[wilky510]

Great new pit for the flanker but still no R77 on it... those F15 noobs who jsut point klick and kill with ammrams will still think ther are the king of the skies...

 

we want the R77 on the flankers.....

 

thanks

Finally get something as huge as a 6dof 3d cockpit and people are still complaining about such dumb stuff as this! :music_whistling:

[G-Lock91]

I wouldn't say crybabies, everyone wants the jet they fly to get upgraded. So, with the upgrade to the 27, I wonder if the 29 and 33 will follow?

 

If you've followed the missile dynamics thread, you'd change your mind :music_whistling:

I think the childish name calling is getting old.

calling people crybabies makes you names calling baby, so get over it

[Cali]

I did follow it and also responded in it, guess you missed my post.

[ALDEGA]

Why is there no Russian DCS World release ?

Because Russian Christmas is on January 7th :D

[Pilotasso]

IS there any chance that improved landing/take off modeling for FC3 are still being worked on?

Kinda, you must jump out of the aircraft with RAlt-J, set the new waypoints with Combined Arms and then RAlt-J back in. It was never intended as a feature but it does work.
