ED Team Wags Posted March 19, 2020 ED Team Share Posted March 19, 2020 (edited) Dear valued clients, We earlier stated that DCS: Supercarrier would be available to play in early access by Q1 2020. However, we will need to postpone the early access release to 15 April 2020 in order to complete the “Stay at Home” Sale. We do not launch large products during an ongoing sale event. This also gives us more time to complete some needed tasks before the early access release. To be as transparent as possible, we are sharing the DCS: Supercarrier task list to complete before its release: Issue Type Summary Priority Status Due Date (if applicable) End date (if applicable) Task Implement network deck crew behavior between players Stopper In Progress Bug Optimize performance Stopper Backlog 13/Mar/20 Bug Correct aircraft and deck static object collision behavior Stopper To Do 09/Apr/20 13/Mar/20 Bug Correct track replays when aircraft taxi on the deck Stopper In Progress 09/Apr/20 Improvement Non-Carrier Aircraft or non-owner Interaction Stopper In Progress Bug Long Range Line Up Light tuning Stopper In Progress 20/Mar/20 13/Mar/20 Task Tune PLAT camera video Stopper In Review 29/Mar/19 Bug Synchronize deck crew in MP Stopper In Progress 20/Mar/20 13/Mar/20 Task Synchronization deck crew at player connect Stopper In Progress 20/Mar/20 Bug Tune carrier and aircraft interaction physics Stopper In Review 09/Apr/20 Task Correct hold back bar installation on E-2C Hawkeye High priority Backlog Task Tune the high-detail LSO Station High priority To Do Improvement Improve the LSO human model quality High priority In Review Bug Reset human player to catapult if player fails alignment to catapult shuttle High priority To Do 27/Mar/20 13/Mar/20 Bug Hold back bar position adjustment after aircraft launch High priority To Do 20/Mar/20 Task Animation and connectors for CVN-72/73/74/75 High priority In Progress 24/Mar/20 Bug Correct hangar door texture of the Kuznetsov High priority In Progress 20/Mar/20 16/Mar/20 Bug Static objects placed near the island can snap to highest point on mesh if mistakenly placed on part of the island structure.

However, we will try our best to add some Supercarrier functionality to Early Access version too.

lunaticfringe Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Expected lack of Tomcat integration at EA release after the animations were already shown to work on the deck reaffirms my choice to save my money for the meantime. I appreciate the update. See you when it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team Wags Posted March 19, 2020 Author ED Team Share Posted March 19, 2020 Expected lack of Tomcat integration at EA release after the animations were already shown to work on the deck reaffirms my choice to save my money for the meantime. I appreciate the update. See you when it works. To be clear, we are not saying that the Tomcat will not be compatible at Super Carrier EA launch, we will do our very best with HB to have at least limited functionality.

VDV Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Yes, yes, it always "first delay", it always "things can change"...always the same words. Its just another proof for me to not support any EA again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VDV Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 This is the first time ED have missed an EA release date for... well years, if ever. Really? What about constantly delays of products and features (including today`s OB)? And 9 months for simply TGP features. But its all good, things can change. Next time my money will change too and I will not give it to ED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, if EA isn't for you I understand (we'd all like stuff faster). But access to initial EA release has always been on time from what I remember, over the years.

Eaglewings Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Under the circumstances we presently are experiencing globally, a 15 days delay should be understandable.

And of course you wouldn't complain about one of them right?? SMH... To be fair, that's not what they said at all. It was initially advertised to release Q1, obviously without those bugs. So they're just disappointed that it wasn't releasing when initially planned. Come on guys a bit of patience, neither those who mindlessly attack OR defend ED when things go to plan are right.
