Hodosy Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I got this answer: Hi Akos, Sorry- but we don't know exactly just yet. We're guaranteeing winter, which stretches to March of next year, but it will hopefully be much sooner than then. Thanks for the support!

FlyBoyd Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 To quote myself from the DCS F-14 discord: Well, the community lost its collective shit just at the the thought of waiting three months. Cause curse Heatblur if it isn't released on the fan date of December 21. It's funny to me how we now live in a world of instant gratification where we expect things to happen immediately. I've been flying simulators for the last 25 years or so and have seen them come a long way. I don't mind waiting, I barely have enough time to fly the Hornet in DCS and the Viper in BMS as it is. Not to mention the longer we wait the more likely additional items like a better VR headset is made and release as well as the 2080Tis coming down in price. Sometimes waiting is better. The flight sim community has definitely become one of damned if you do and damned if you don't kind of thing. I am pretty sure we will see this with any new module coming out like the A-6 eventually. I'm just as excited to fly the F-14 as anyone, just glad someone has finally made it! All that said though it would pretty epic for heatblur to release the Tomcat on December 21st. That might be a tall order for them depending on where they are in the production, but you couldn't ask for a better release date for this module.

People also flipped when the "last week in October-update" didn't show up until early November. I think, any developer should just not say any sort of definitive date even if they have one in mind (internally). I don't think the F-14 will come in December. January, maybe, but not December. If it does, sweet, but I have my doubts. January 4 would be a good date to ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gman109 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I have a large credit on Steam. Can I buy (another) copy pre order for the F14 on Steam, but use it on the nonSteam version of DCS? IE does the Steam version come with a code or whatever so it can be installed and activated on a non Steam DCSW install?

pii Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I believe you can use Steam version with DCS but not DCS versions on Steam. This may have changed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animaal Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I don't think you can do that any more. As far as I know, modules since the M2000 no longer use Starforce DRM, and so Steam keys for those modules can't be activated on Stand-alone DCS. I'm open to correction though.
