G-Lock91 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Things change. All ED had to do was not announce anything at all, then announce the release the same day it was ready to release. This is exactly why ED do not want to announce anything, and just push out the release when it is ready, because people start complaining that something is not released. In the end, they will release it when it is ready. What do you want, for them to release something that is not ready? I understand Beta releases, but really, the idea is to release something that is ready to go normally. Why do you think that there is current silence about an estimated release? Because, if any estimate is given, and it does not happen, bang, complaints galore on the forum :) I bet we will not hear anything again about FC3 until the day it is released. Keep in mind, this not Electronic Arts with shareholders demanding a release date so revenue can be generated to satisfy stock holders. Then, if a date is looking like to slip, you throw cash at the problem. This is a small company trying to make money and doing something they love. Wipe off your nose.. lookin a little brown :) Kidding aside, I think peeps are just amped about flying something fast.

104th_Crunch Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 So FC3 will reuire LOCK On be installed... Installed where? Where will Lock On reside? You install Lockon first anywhere, then install FC3 anywhere separately. On first start of FC3 it will check that Lockon is installed and run. After the first run of FC3 you can delete Lockon. This is how it works with FC2, so the assumtion is FC3 will be the same. Wipe off your nose.. lookin a little brown :) Kidding aside, I think peeps are just amped about flying something fast. The hog is fun and all but the need for speed is everywhere up in here Lol. At least my knees are still clean :) I am excited as well. Of course I will be more excited when DCS:Su-27 and DCS:F-18 are announced :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hog is fun and all but the need for speed is everywhere up in here I am definitely amped about this module. I can understand this is a small company, but I think most of us here are reasonable and just appreciate some official communication. A small bone of information without a release date. I don't know.

ED announced FC3 to get released in September, so everbody estimated the due date, by end of September at the latest. Then on 26th of Sept, they said, they wont make it. I have no problem with this at all, a product release can take longer, but ya have to keep the community updated whats going on ! not leaving them alone for another month. the customer support here on already released ED products is brilliant, the info on upcoming developments is not. noboday wants to be updated about every single line they programme , but we wanna be at least kept updated why we are almost a month later then the original due date and still not the smallest sign of a release. read the posts, people are startin' to get upset, with good reason.

159th_Viper Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 ....people are startin' to get upset, with good reason. There is absolutely no good reason whatsoever. People know it is in development. People know there are test builds that are being tested and worked on in order to get to a workable release-candidate. People know that, as previous experience shows, that FC3 development is fluid and thus incapable of being given an exact date for completion. In addition, people have been treated to numerous AAR Beta previews courtesy of BeachAV8R. Goodness knows what more is there to do? Novice or Veteran looking for an alternative MP career?

Raven68 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 People know that, as previous experience shows, that FC3 development is fluid and thus incapable of being given an exact date for completion. Most on here are reasonable and don't expect an "exact date", there is however a press release that was issued at the beginning of September to expect the release in September. Then September 26th, understandably, the announcement of the release delayed. Almost a month later there is this vacuum of... On the side of the customer I love the interaction from ED staff and reps. I know they cant be here on these board every moment of the moment, but almost a month of...... Well some of the customers will get a little jumpy and start to question. And based on the expectation for a delivery that was suppose to happen in September it's only natural for some to have this reaction. :music_whistling: Intel i5-9600K @ 3.7GHz Gigabyte Z370XP SLI Mobo G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2070 8GB 256-Bit GDDR6(Assume the latest driver version) Thermaltake Water 3.0 Certified Liquid Cooling System Windows 10 Professional Oculus Rift-S /TrackIR 5 in case VR dies Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog w/ Thrustmaster T-Flight Rudder Pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pigmachine Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 It were the news of the FC3 and the 1.2.1 patch that woke me up from my lo-tech coma, of rattling around in WWI planes in RoF (Great sim BTW!). And I have to admit that I'm still relearning stuff, that were automatic reflex before, so I should stick to that, instead of whining about when FC3 is released. But my I still feel that info would be nice! Are they secretly adding 6DoF to all the pits? Are they building a frozen turkey cannon, to fill my german MIG-29 engines with.. Just an official word on what is going on would make so many feel a lot more relieved, even if it's 'no soup for you' until X-mas! :pilotfly: EDIT->HAHAH!
