Eisenfaustus 52 Posted May 31 3 hours ago, II/JG17_HerrMurf said: I always hope for a DD on Friday's but also realize there is the workload to consider as well as holidays and other things that get in the way. On the other hand, no one should expect content releases on the backside of the week. We've been down that road before and it's not likely to happen again.........for obvious reasons if you were around in the EA days. Look for releases on Monday's, Tuesday's and maybe Wednesday's. Thursday's are unlikely and you will probably never see a Friday release ever. I wasn't here back than - why no content before weekend? What happened?

If you release an update on a Tuesdays, the team can immediately address any bugs which may arise. If the update comes Friday afternoon, and the devs take a (well deserved) relaxing weekend away from game development, they are subjected to a weekends worth of exasperation and complaints Monday morning. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
II/JG17_HerrMurf 2355 Posted May 31 2 hours ago, Eisenfaustus said: I wasn't here back than - why no content before weekend? What happened? As above, there was a Friday release in EA which had some undiscovered bugs which made the game largely unplayable. Users got frustrated through an entire weekend and the Dev's were unaware. They came back on the following Monday to a large part of the user base unexpectedly at rage level 11. Now updates are done at the front end of the week so they can be monitored and bugs squashed quickly. The team learned and adapted. They now have one of the fastest hotfix responses I've ever seen. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AeroAce 827 Posted June 5 I don't think they are going to do an update just before the FS Expo as it would be a disaster if there was a bug. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect that they'll have some kind of beta build of the sim at the Expo to demo the 262, with the release coming early next week. if its a big update they'll want to have all next week to arrange hotfixes and deal with issues if needed. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[_FLAPS_]Diggun 551 Posted June 5 So four weeks after it was going to be two or three? I guess the flight sim expo was totally unforseen and surprising so that's fine. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that perhaps the update got bigger than they expected, so they took some time to finish up a few things and include it with a slight delay rather than have stuff waiting for next update. Perhaps including the 262 in sim required more changes than they expected. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I won't be back from Spain before 14th June anyways, so take your time folks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Finkeren 5751 Posted June 6 10 minutes ago, 77.CountZero said: 262 with the update tomorow A huge update on a friday, right as they are to present the new build at FS Expo? I highly doubt it. An update of this magnitude is bound to bring issues that will require hotfixes, and they don't want that to interfere with their Expo promotion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s the 75th anniversary of the d-day landing I was marking the occasion (deliberately, not accicentally lol) as there doesn't seem to be a thread dedicated to the commemoration of what was a momentous event in world history; rivalling the great strategic strokes of the Wehrmacht in the West and East and also the heroic endeavours of the Red Army. If today, you search "D-Day" on the forums you will find no thread with that name, and "DD Today" half way down the page. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CUJO_1970 910 Posted June 6 They will probably do a DD about the Expo with some shots/possible video of 262 this week. Official release in two weeks be sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NN_RugbyGoth 172 Posted June 6 Video of 262 aerobatics, like they did a while ago with other planes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CUJO_1970 910 Posted June 6 Nope, probably no aerobatics video - I read here on the forum that 262 is only able to fly in a straight line. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taxman 46 Posted June 6 Two weeks, that does bring back memories. I'm just wondering, wasn't the 51 "estimated" release date some time in June? Of course that could be later in June. BTW the "Testers" have not been posting much of late, hum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

II/JG17_HerrMurf 2355 Posted June 6 Probably not expecting much if any DD this week. After FS Expo I expect Jason and Han to have a sizeable post regarding the 262 release and a ton of under the hood improvements talk. Just a guess..... 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Voidhunger 447 Posted June 7 (edited) I would like to see HD video of schwalbe in action before the patch. Video from the expo will be nice to show atmosphere at the show and people around, but its not good to capture planes flying, tanks fighting. Maybe someone from the expo crew can take hd video from the pc before the show begin....or after. Shamrock maybe? Edited June 7 by Voidhunger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
