Cowboy10uk Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Thanks again for the update EB, and don't worry mate, nobody feels like you're messing with us. You have been upfront and truthful with us from the start, and that's all we can ask for. I think everyone of us have been simmers long enough to realise that sometimes things slip, that's just life. All we ask is you keep us informed mate. Look on the bright side though, at least you guys know, your efforts won't be for nothing, I've a feeling you may sell a module or two if this forum is anything to go by. :) Cowboy10uk [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Fighter pilots make movies, Attack pilots make history, Helicopter pilots make heros. :pilotfly: Corsair 570x Crystal Case, Intel 8700K O/clocked to 4.8ghz, 32GB Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4 3200 MHZ Ram, 2 x 1TB M2 drives, 2 x 4TB Hard Drives, Nvidia EVGA GTX 1080ti FTW, Maximus x Hero MB, H150i Cooler, 6 x Corsair LL120 RGB Fans And a bloody awful Pilot :doh:
Raven68 Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 The fact EB and PilotMI8 is sharing this info is more than appreciated, I know I love the amount of updates good or bad we are getting from this team. I can't see any posts from people getting wound up, or stating we have been lied to, or that the world is going to end just because the Huey is very very slightly delayed from what we hoped would happen. NOONE is angry, NOONE is saying we shouldn't get info. In fact I think you will find we are more than happy with the info given. Yes there was a slight issue at first when the legal side was happening, but damn EB and PilotMI8 have more than made up for that with the fantastic amount of info and videos that they have given us in the last week. Although I am late and missed most of the "party" I share this same thought. This project hit a road block that questioned whether we would see it at all a couple of months ago. Now we are very close to a release, therefore I can wait. I may bitch and whine from time to time, but I am DCS fan. I AM NOT GOING ANYWHERE! When it's released the funds will transfer to compensate and keep Belsimtek, DCS and our beloved genre going! :thumbup: Intel i5-9600K @ 3.7GHz; Gigabyte Z370XP SLI Mobo; G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 64GB (4 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4080 16GB 256-Bit GDDR6; Thermaltake Water 3.0 Certified Liquid Cooling System Windows 11 Professional HP Reverb G2 /TrackIR 5 in case VR dies; Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog w/ Thrustmaster T-Flight Rudder Pedals
manne Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 So, moving on, what's the first thing you guys will do when you get your hands on the module? Straight to free flight? Straight to a mission? First a tutorial? I think I will just do a cheat startup and try to hover/get away from the airfield and crash and burn completely probably before skids get off the ground..

That's about what I have in mind except I plan on hitting pause as soon as the skids are off of the ground so I can take a screen shot.

Tutorial, free flight, then missions, but i don't expect to be getting to the missions too soon (taking a few breaks to mow down insurgents with the door guns and flex miniguns of course).

I'll try to start the thing without reading the startup procedures chapters of the manual first. It's always fun to "guess" what all the shiny buttons do :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

I couldn't resist buttons that had "Pull" written on them, first thing I did.

Cowboy10uk Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Cold and dark startup, hover practice, followed by autorotation practice and then low level nav across the map, in formation with my 2 wingmen before a practise combat assault all the time with my tour of duty soundtrack on high, plugged into my headphones and if I'm still alive after that, practising pin point single skid landings up on the ridges in the Hills. Fun is not the word, it's gonna be bloody amazing. :pilotfly: :joystick: :D Cowboy10uk [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Fighter pilots make movies, Attack pilots make history, Helicopter pilots make heros. :pilotfly: Corsair 570x Crystal Case, Intel 8700K O/clocked to 4.8ghz, 32GB Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4 3200 MHZ Ram, 2 x 1TB M2 drives, 2 x 4TB Hard Drives, Nvidia EVGA GTX 1080ti FTW, Maximus x Hero MB, H150i Cooler, 6 x Corsair LL120 RGB Fans And a bloody awful Pilot :doh:

Rusty_M Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Whether I get it or not, I will probably download the torrent (assuming they treat it the same way as a ED module), so I can seed it for people. It also means that if I do purchase, I will be able to play instantly. The world is going mad. Me? I'm doing fine! http://www.twitch.tv/rusty_the_robot https://www.youtube.com/user/RustyRobotGaming
doright Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Step 1. Flip some likely looking switches that caught attention during my brief perusal of the manual. Step 2. I saw the Hovering video so I should have no problem doing that. Step 3. Die in a intricate dance of rotor, fuselage, ground, and flames. Step 4. Find the tutorials.

Derk Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Ah, so we're moving forward with anticipation again? Great! I'll start her cold and dark. Then when she has warmed up to me i'll gently sweep her off her feet and we slowly drift away into the blazing... wreckage?! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
