Well guys, last minute issues may have foiled us for today. But don't sweat it, if not today, tomorrow. Team is working hard to get it done.

Don't want to disappoint now, mate, but for sure you will not be able to fly the DCS Supercarrier...

Great to see the Yak-9 finally making its belated appearance, they were there in the skies over Stalingrad 42/43

 

We've been over this before.  No, it wasn't - @BlackSix's research has shown that.

Thanks Jason and team for the hard work! It's always better to wait for something great than to have new shinny toys that don't even work. 

[GarandM1]

No big deal on the delay, I'm just pleasantly surprised we are on the eve of such a big content update with all the disruption to normal work right now.

[=OPFR=the_rooster]

I’ll be buying the 9t as a thanks good work guys!!

[FTC_Snowy]

I’ve pre-ordered the Hurricane already and put my money down for the Yak-9 this afternoon. Looking forward to both of them.

[w00dy]

I had already pre-ordered the Hurricane and the Yak-9T months ago,  and wasn't going to bother with the other Yak. But after hearing the news, I got it this afternoon.

 

Looking forward to the update ?

[Jason_Williams]

Ok so good news, looks like we can go live today with the update. But please take your time. If it is bedtime where you live, I suggest just waiting till morning so our update servers don't get super slammed. It will be here when you wake up and pour your coffee or have your morning cocktail. This is a larger than usual update so our AWS servers that we power with hamsters on a wheel will be impacted more and longer than usual. Steam, because they are ginormous corporate behemoth, not so much obviously.

 

Also, please take some time and play the update for a bit before reporting bugs. Let's confirm issues before you send us on a bug hunting chase. Tracks showing bugs are best with details on how to re-produce.

[ITAF_Rani]

Cool !!

[Raven109]

Dear Jason,

 

I'd like to report a bug. You announced the update just a few moments ago, and I still don't have it. (j/k - using many words to say that I can't wait)

No, no, no. The man said if it's your bedtime to wait until morning to download! That will give the rest of us a chance to get it while you're sleeping. Thank you for your cooperation.

[Patricks]

Excuse my ignorance, but how do we get the update? Will Steam auto-update? I found everything up to and including 4.005 here , nothing on 4.006?

Well if I am already in bed, it will be tomorrow cause once there  I ain't getting up again. And I do go to bed early.

But if it is out before that, watch out LOL.

If you have Steam version, yes Steam will push the udate.

Stand Alone version users, get it through the launcher when update is live.

I guess the Devs are the only ones who don't get to go to sleep before the update is posted... I bet it's well after cocktail time in Moscow by now. ☹️
