We planned to release today a new update of DCS 2.5.4, but we faced a number of critical bugs that require rebuilding and a new testing session.

Therefore, the release of DCS 2.5.4 Open Beta is postponed until tomorrow.

Dear pilots,

 

With the DCS: MiG-19P Farmer by RAZBAM Simulations to be released this Friday, 1 March 2019, we will be shifting our Open Beta release to Friday this week instead of the usual Wednesday. A benefit of this is that we’ll now have time to also release an eagerly awaited new Eagle Dynamics feature! Let the speculation run wild!

 

Sincerely,

The Eagle Dynamics Team
