Can we expect this very needed and welcom update anytime soon or will it be weeks away?

 

Thx

[HiJack]

2 weeks :P

 

Normaly they don't give dates and the phrase is "It's done when it's done"

please do not focus only on stability, remember buggy A-10C too...

 

 

 

 

if not :(

 

[Darkwolf]

I don't know why everyone complain....

 

.... When i play alone on a MP server that i host myself, i never get any connection interrupted. :music_whistling:

What use it that when you can't play without crashing?

[Pman]

Exactly right, the game is extremely unstable at the moment and without it being fixed there is little incentive to do anything else

Yep. Hope ED get their stuff (was thinking of another word lol) together and put their money where their mouth is.

 

For this very reason Shrek squadron are operating on v1.2.4 for squadron flying.

Like your Sig Pman... I'm gagging for an A4K and perhaps an A6 : )

 

Back on track though, 1.2.6 seems to have upset things a little. Just release F-18C with a full fidelity carrier with Edge and that will keep most people happy :P

We, at Escuadron 69's users server hosted some online game only with A-10C module and it was same stable than earlier versions, it's true when you try to host differents modules stability decrease, note especially CA.

 

But this new version bring A-10C a lot of bugs, wich added to do not clean olders ones in previous updates (you can look yourself, A-10C hasn't changelog since 1.2.4 update), makes it unplayable on 1.2.6.

51st have to restart our DCS public server around every 3 hours where we do run minimal missions.

 

Thank Frostie to have the patience to restart it.

Hmmm... I'm really wondering if the comment when 1.2.6 was released meant that it had not yet reached beta stability and was still alpha?

 

Coming from 1.2.4 it seems that not many improvements have surfaced yet.

 

Note: The open beta version was not ready in time for release.

[sobek]

It simply means that the GUI to change between beta and release channel was not ready.

Well , I really think ED are havin a laugh with us , staying quite about this C++ issue and by letting Mi-8 into an unstable world and not concentrating on this stability issue which plague's the sim for the rest of us .

 

I think its utter bad manners to be honest .....

Did you perhaps miss the message from Wags that this thread was created to discuss?

Yes I did ..... thanks . Glad to hear it .

[winchesterdelta1]

Yup.. having stability issue's as well since the new patch. After 20/30 minutes of play it just crashes on me.

Right now i'm waiting for a fix for that and a fix/improvement for the AIM-120.

Won't play until both these things are becoming better. I'm highly frustrated with the game right now. Never had this before with DCS, most things i could cope with but these two things make it impossible for me to have some fun.

Missing the 51st server already :(

[SNAFU]

Well it`s funny, but for me, DCS has never been so stable as it is now for a long time...

 

Occasionally I get a C++ Runtime error after 3hours, but before 1.2.6 it was even worse and DCSs average time to crash - ATC - was about 30minutes... :music_whistling:

 

FC1 and BS1 was last ED product I remember, which ran "flawless"... guess I go used to it... :music_whistling:

Problems always come and go with some patches, never had a game which ran smoothly trough it's entire life of patching, it's just the way it is. New Modules and features sometimes produce new errors. ED is doing a great job and I really believe that people are working hard behind the scenes to get this fixed fast, just be a little more patient I guess, it'll be fine.

TRue , i remember those times when we were waiting for patch aproximately 1 year to fix the bugs.

Autoupdater is a huge step forward.

Calm down. Have some dip.

 

Just let ED do their job and don't speculate on update schedules. It isn't productive discussion.

So after 18 months to two years (which is how long before we see the 18C), how many people will be left to buy it, if MP doesn't get better first.

[HiJack]

If it will help, I’ll be here :P

[key_stroked]

1.2.6 is completely unplayable.

I've reverted to 1.2.5 until they fix the latest patch. Thank god for DCS_Updater.exe.

[Hamblue]

Today is 4 weeks since the 1.2.6 release and not even a micro patch.

Kind of surprised.:dunno:
