DCS 1.2.1 Update - 8 October 2012

 

With the auto update today, we believe the cursor issue is now resolved and we think that 1.2.1 is in a good state. We will now be focusing on DCSW 1.2.2, FC3 and the final version of CA.

 

Thanks

Small update:

My plan was to start work on the second trailer for DCS Mig-21, but there are some features that are not working with the build I have yet, so I have to wait until Beczl sends me the latest build with all the important features working. He said it could take another 1-2 weeks.

 

And though I could've spent that time working on Superior Fighters 2 (Flaming cliffs 3 promo) im in the middle of a moving process, switching apartment. So yeah, lots of stuff going on these days actually. But when things are back in place, I'll get started on the projects ASAP. I'll keep you posted. Cheers! :)

DCS: Combined Arms gives you control of ground forces during the battle. Use the Command Map to move ground forces, set artillery fire missions, and control the ground battle. Assume the role of a Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) in multiplayer and designate targets for player-controlled close air support aircraft, or directly control armor vehicles or air defense weapons and engage the enemy.

DCS: Combined Arms supports both single player and multiplayer game play. When in multiplayer, different players can take on different roles such as artillery commanders, tank commanders, pilots, JTACS, etc. DCS: Combined Arms allows you full control of the battle. All roles can be changed dynamically during the battle.

Lock On: Flaming Cliffs 3 (FC3) Update

 

Per the list above of FC3 changes, work on this module continues. However, the module will likely be in a protracted beta development stage as we create new content for it that our customers have been asking for.

The most noteworthy being a new 6 DOF cockpit for the Su-27 Flanker. We also plan to release a new radar mode for the MiG-29S that allows dual tracking and engagements of targets with the R-77 air-to-air missile.

The pre-purchase price will stay at $39.99 as an early buyer discount; however, the final release will be at $49.99 given the number of new features and extended development time.

 

Happy holidays,

The Fighter Collection and Eagle Dynamics

Sorry for the confusion of the News Letter going out prior to 1.2.3 being released. There was a bit of a communications break down between eastern and western offices.

 

Although we can now talk about the new Su-27 cockpit and new MiG-29S radar mode, there are some other "big" items coming for FC3 too, but they are still in early stages and a bit early to announce them yet. All in all, we are striving to put a lot of new content into FC3.

Regarding a dedicated server. Work on this has been underway but had to be placed on hold given the current instability in network play. Once we get network play stable again, work on the dedicated server will resume.

1.2.3 Update

 

During the course of version 1.2.3 testing, we found a significant technical problem with multiplayer. With the Russian Christmas holiday upon us, we unfortunately will not be able to release version 1.2.3 until the middle of January 2013. Given the feedback we have received on the current state of network play stability, we feel it important to resolve this before the release of 1.2.3.

 

Happy New Year

Really not a big deal, since I can only be thankful for the team there being involved in such a huge upgrade for free!!!!

 

And, I am so busy with what I already have that I know it will be impossible to taste all of the already announced features of the upcoming version in time for it's release date... There are loads of manual pages to learn, trainning sessions to fly, etc....

 

Take your time ED, make DCS World - THE SIMULATION PLATFORM of 2013!!!
