IonicRipper Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 I was this close to buying the Mi-8 when it was released as a beta but decided to wait for the final version this time for several reasons. Just wondering if someone had an approximate ETA for the final version release. Not looking for a specific date or anything, just an approximate idea. i5 4590 @ 3.77GHz | GTX 1060 6GB | 16GB 1600MHz DDR3 | 1TB HDD+500GB HDD | Win10 Home X64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Yurgon Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 I'm not sure about BST's policy on the issue, but if they follow the way ED does it, the final version will be released "when it's done ". SCNR :D But seriously, I have no clue concerning BST's timetable.
IonicRipper Posted September 15, 2013 Author Posted September 15, 2013 Surely they must have some sort of idea... Hopefully i5 4590 @ 3.77GHz | GTX 1060 6GB | 16GB 1600MHz DDR3 | 1TB HDD+500GB HDD | Win10 Home X64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
fjacobsen Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 Surely they must have some sort of idea... Hopefully They most probably have, but I´m sure they won´t tell. People tend to focus on such dates and if they don´t hold through, then people will complain. | i7-10700K 3.8-5.1Ghz | 64GB RAM | RTX 4070 12GB | 1x1TB M.2. NVMe SSD | 1x2TB M.2.

Suchacz Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 They most probably have, but I´m sure they won´t tell. Exactly, why should you put your own team under the pressure from the public...?

TimeKilla Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 Never going to happen has not happened with the Huey they have said there will likely be three betas on the go if that helps any. :joystick: YouTube :pilotfly: TimeKilla on Flight Sims over at YouTube.
Phantom88 Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 Well,If The DCS A-10C can be any indication,It could be over a year. Patrick
Yurgon Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 Exactly, that's why I was just looking for an approximate idea, not a specific date. Well, ED has given such approximate dates in the past, and it usually came back and bit them when they didn't make it in time. So let's assume a BST rep says something like "before christmas" or "by the end of the quarter" or "next summer" and then the day passes where this statement simply cannot be true any longer, people will start to question the schedule, someone will start to accuse them of fraudulent behavior, others will demand a definitive date or they want their money back, and so on and so on. Happened before, will happen again. If I was even remotely affiliated with BST, I'd strongly advise them... I'd actually urge them not to give any date at all. Not even an approximate one. Not even a hint. Not even with "subject to change" or "preliminary" or "author's opinion" or "not set in stone" attached to it in capital letters followed by two rows of exclamation marks. It's just not worth all the trouble. In a nutshell: When it's done. :D

For some people those hints seems to be written with invisible ink and are not read, so even approximate dates will become hard written deadlines for them. | i7-10700K 3.8-5.1Ghz | 64GB RAM | RTX 4070 12GB | 1x1TB M.2.

eurofor Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 Don't know if the final version has to wait for features like multiplayer co-op which is likely on ED's end but then maybe the other features will be patched in before that if there's any specific feature you're waiting for. - АРК-9 ADF - Ядро-1М HF radio - РИ-65 Voice Warning System - ЭСБР electrical bomb release system - Signal rockets - ОПБ-1р bombing sight of the pilot-navigator - Onboard machine guns - Sling load - Game mode [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
