Gierasimov Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Interesting Please don’t. Incirlik specifically has hardened shelters missing in the Gulf, India, and Hotel loops and hangers placed where they shouldn’t be. I sent an email to Urga-Media offering help and provide real world info for taxiway labels but haven’t gotten a response. Yeah, don't rush! To me it looks pre-DCS 1.5. Does it not look like older EDGE version to you? Or perhaps these renders are not done with EDGE at all?

Gierasimov Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Not from ED but from map developers Has it been confirmed which regions will be included in the Syria Map? I keep seeing mentions of airfields in Israel and Lebanon. Have we gotten any official word on this from ED? From their website -- "The project will present a map of 610 * 440 km in size, which includes almost all the states on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea. It will present such major cities as the Israeli Haifa and Shefaran, the Lebanese Beirut and Tripoli, the Turkish Adana and Gaziantep, the Jordanian Irbit and Jerash, but of course the cities of the Syrian Arab Republic - Damascus, Homs, Hama, Lattakia, Idlib, Aleppo, Raqka and etc. In the project, you can see the real monuments of ancient architecture - the colonnades and the amphitheatre of Palmyra, the citadel of Allepo, the fortress of Krak de Chevalier, the mosque of Muhammad Al - Amin and others. The map will be implemented more than 20 airfields, including the international airports of Damascus and Beirut, the US airbase Incirlik. And of course, the base of the Russian VKS Hmeymim and the Navy base Tartus will be presented."

AG-51_Razor Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 How much of the Mediterranean sea will be shown on the map? Enough for a carrier to paddle around in? :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvern Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Any word on Cyprus yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gierasimov Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 (edited) Should really have it... Any word on Cyprus yet? I doubt it will be included though. I base my opinion on two factors. 1. No mention on the project website. 2. Take a map and measure 610 x 440 km in the region, you will see that including Cyprus cuts off a huge chunk of Syria from the map. Something like this: Then, the project does not mention a lot in terms of Israel neither and with a map like the one above, there would be much more to mention. Just my opinion.

Baco Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I hope they do an EA like the Gulf, or its not going to be ready on 2019. The scope is huge! lots of main cities, and if they are planing all the monuments and landmarks is going to take a lot of time to model. its a very rich area, feature wise. If doen right, witch I believe they will, (experience with Il-2), its going to be the best map on DCS so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a shame to not include it, at least the island land mass in low detail. RAF Akrotiri is one of the main NATO bases in the area after all. It would be an immense gameplay value to have an off-shore NATO base. Edited February 20, 2019 by Silvern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baco Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 (edited) Looks like Akrotiri is too far west to be in the map. maybe Turkish Geciktale base, but my estimate is that its too far west also... I wonder if Batman is too far north to be included, its´definately not West (pun intended) :D Edited February 20, 2019 by Baco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MBot Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Regardless of the detailed size of the map, I sincerely hope that the outline of the complete eastern Mediterranean coast is included in the same style as the whole Black Sea outline is included in the Caucasus map. Eastern Med and Black Sea are about the same size too, so I think this is feasible. I think this will be essential for 6th Fleet naval operations.

Gierasimov Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Well, it will be I think, just like the area for the Persian Gulf map is, I don't expect it to be just framed 610 km x 440 km. Newsletter 11/01/2019 said: "With 2018 we saw the release of the DCS: Persian Gulf Map. For 2019 we and our partners are working on two new World War II maps, a Syria map, a Falkland Islands map, and a new free map that we’ll discuss later in the year." To me, it means only that partners will be working on a Syria map in 2019, not that it will be available in 2019.

Naval ops would not make sense otherwise, if carrier will be parked 40km from the coast. Fingers crossed they add low level details to Cyprus. It will stick out like a sore thumb otherwise...
