Where is the DCS: Mig-21bis Board?

[eyusuf]

Let's start a survey to see how many of us are prepared to pay for a beta version?

 

+1

Confirmed previously that there would not be any Open-Beta but yeah, would be nice :)

That was a Beczl Studios statement.

 

Now, when Wags starts talking about the future of this project is apparent, that the one who will be finishing and releasing this project is ED. With or without original Beczl's team. So IMHO MiG-21 Beta is not unreal.

[danilop]

Don't jump into conclusions prematurely.

 

Dev team is alive, and although we will probably see some changes, that doesn't necessarily mean that ED took over the MiG21 project completely. Or not.

 

We'll see.

 

The most important thing is that MiG 21 get released eventually, no matter who will stand behind it in the end. Everything else is for the yellow press ... :D

Why should Matt make a statement about MiG-21's status if it is still developed by a third party group...? :huh:

Wags talks about the project maybe because he's the Producer and P.R. to say of ED and maybe the best qualified in ED to share his knowledge.

 

I think you went too far too soon in conclusion...

There exists a contractual relationship between ED and Beczl studios so he will be well-aware of the current status quo. As he is further the PR-guy of ED, keeping us happy by alleviating Community fears is why he made the statement he did - it definitely DOES NOT mean that ED have now taken over development.

Everybody is worried about trying to figure out what happened, I'm just sitting here wanting to fly a Mig-21....

Oh, come on... this is just absurd :music_whistling:

 

Why should "PR-guy of ED" comment a inner problems of a different legal entity? Only for our amusement?

[danilop]

ED is mediator in ongoing negotiations? It seems logical that neutral (well, ED is not strictly neutral, but you get the picture) party gives a statement in this case

True that. What's the point of worrying about something one has no control over. I have enough stress at work. While I'd love to try my hand at the MiG-21, if it is not released, oh well... there is always something else coming down the pipe.

Lets make a bet :D

 

I say, that MiG-21 will be released by ED, on ED's eshop

Your apparent lack of understanding is what is absurd :thumbup:

 

ED have a vested financial interest in having the 3rd-party development succeed as a result of the contractual relationship between ED and Beczl studios, never mind the Goodwill vested in the endevour, which in itself is probably the most important factor to consider.

Eagle Dynamics is not taking over development of the DCS: MiG-21BiS.

 

As stated by Wags, once we are ready to make a statement, we will do so.

Looking forward to it.

[Alicatt]

I still wish the Mig 21 team all the best and hope that it is all settled amicably.

 

I have been a supporter of this mod since it was first announced by Beczl.

Glad to hear it. Take your time.

i will support everything. . . please give us this beauty. . . :-)

I (nobody) said, that ED is taking over. I said, that ED will release it. Which is a good thing for us, because it means it will have official ED support (autoupdates), which is not accesible for other 3rd parties' modules.

 

 

Please do not Speculate or Assume on what is being done Internally, it only causes mass confusion and angry forum members and a off topic train of Arguing.

 

Any posts speculating on Internal Affairs will be deleted.

 

When there is Official News, it will be posted by a member of the Team or ED Staff member.

Sorry you have to keep popping in here occasionally to slap us. Will be waiting here with fingers crossed for the statement.

Welll, Cobra, Beczl, (if you are reading this thread) I sincerely hope you can get this sorted, I'll be here to thrust some of my hard earned into your hands when you do....

What I think is not the same as most of the people out there, but still... hopefully it might be interesting to someone... well, to me, I think that the MiG-21 is a very ugly airplane, no advanced avionics such as an A-10C or F-15E in the version represented in the module ( operating complicated systems is what makes it fun for me ), you know, it's too old and... Russian cockpits feel really weird to me.

 

But... guess what? If this comes out I will purchase it and spend months learning it and flying it countless hours, simply because the quality of this module seems to be so good that anyone with a strong interest in aviation in general will be more than happy to take it out for a spin and learn all about it. There are many people out there who love the MiG-21 and also people like me who would give anything to have fun learning how to operate any military aircraft being represented with such accuracy and a beautifully modeled and immersive cockpit. I've never thought that, me, a guy who really couldn't care less about MiG-21s would feel worried with this situation, because I really want this module to come out and buy it :noexpression: I believe this module has a great sales expectation in this community, in the end it has to come out.

I had the same feeling first, ugly and old but then i started looking at the cold war era aircraft from Soviet and the interest went really big:D For me the old aircrafts is really cool compared to the new ones, the old system, weapons and such. 1 more thing i love about this aircraft is the speed :pilotfly: I get really horny when i see the Su 24 :censored: I wish somebody made that to DCS

I hope you guys will fix the problem and release this beauty model :)

[Aginor]

Same here. I'm not exactly a fan of the Mig-21, because of the reasons you guys stated, but seeing how accurate the model and behaviour is modeled I decided I have to buy that thing on release day. Simply outstanding, especially if it smoothes the way for further planes.
