astrospud Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 seems they are busy with FSX Pilatus and Tac-Pack i hope they wont forget DCSW Just to clarify, I don't believe IRIS has any involvement with Tacpack, SDK or otherwise. That's developed by VRS - Vertical Reality Simulations; another FSX dev. Rectum non bustus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenan Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 The only thing that bothers me is that they (IRIS) didn't care to inform the community here of their (lack of) progress or at least notify of delayed development. This way it seems they just left without bothering to let the folks know..pretty amateurish if you ask me..

Kenan Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 ^^And what does that have to do with them not bothering to inform the community here of their DCS projects? Why the frack would I care for their FSX plans? This is ED/DCS forum and they could have at least said "Ok. guys we've changed our priorities, for now we won't be able to make any progress, but will let you know if and when anything changes in that regards.".

cichlidfan Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 My conspiracy theory is that they looked at the cost/effort to develop for DCS against the potential return (size of the customer base) and compared that to the cost to continue to develop for FSX/Prepar3d and possibly TacPack with it's level of return. In the end the potential return on investment for DCS was not sufficient to make it worthwhile.

Agg Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Most FSX developers produce a lot of rubbish, but Iris is one of the few that I quite like, so I do hope that they will be back. Although I do feel that they bit over a bit too much when they decided to make something as complex as a Mudhen as their first DCS aircraft.

This is ED/DCS forum and they could have at least said "Ok. guys we've changed our priorities, for now we won't be able to make any progress, but will let you know if and when anything changes in that regards.". How hard is it, really? If the history of these and many other games/sim forums are to go by, that sort of announcement will bring out the trolls. Why risk the vitriol of the vocal minority by reporting that there is nothing to report? They had to prioritise and focus their efforts elsewhere (FSX) as it's the core of their business. Why the frack would I care for their FSX plans? The same can be said for your DCS requirements. Since nobody has financially committed to their DCS products, why should we demand that IRIS kowtow to our whim? Try to genuinely put yourself in their shoes. If you ran a small crew of developers, and you took on something as challenging as a DCS title, you would feel the need to prioritise your assets on finalising, and then supporting, products that were already in the works, then when the revenue/liquid assets dictate it possible, move onto the more complex project. How many posts have we seen that bagged ED on the lack of info on a particular project? Is it any wonder that Wags has "EVERTHING IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE" as his forum sig?

asparagin Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 We in forum administration are constantly worried about longitudinal distance of scrolling; each root-level section takes up space in the browser. This also means that our friends in russia have to scroll further. For this reason, we try to keep this scrolling distance as clean as other interests allow. :lol: [russian accent mode: on; in background the main title from "The hunt for red october" slowly fades in]: Mother Russia thanks you!!

Spanky Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Hi Everyone! Where shall I start.. :) First and foremost, let me put some of your concerns to rest. 1. It's business as usual at IRIS. No we haven't lost our contact, no we haven't had a falling out with ED and no we haven't cancelled anything. 2. The decision to hide the IRIS forums is the ED forum moderators decision. We respect their decision and the reasons behind it. 3. Yes I DID mention on the IRIS forums here late last year that I personally had to focus on finishing the PC-21 prior to doing any more work on our DCS line. The PC-21 was finished last week and I'm pretty sure I earned a weekend off after all that.. :) 4. Our commitment to DCS and the industry is as strong now as it always has been. Any suggestions including so called 'inside knowledge' is absolute rubbish. If you don't hear it directly from me..take it with a grain of salt! There are many out there who like to spin tall tales for their own benefit. Anyway, I respect your passion for our team and the aircraft we produce. It's a shame to read some of the negative comments here, but that's the nature of the business.. everyone is entitled to his or her opinion. :) So thank you all...and we'll advise you all when we have more to show. ~David.
