Klaiber Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 The L-39 Albatros has just been made available for pre-purchase. http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/news/l-39_pre-purchase/ http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=145372 And when it's released in September (as an open Beta), DCS World 1.5.0 will also be released: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2438151&postcount=40 DCS World 1.5.0 will use the new rendering engine they've been developing. So, we're getting tantalizingly closer to DCS World 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britchot Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Bah, open beta is one step I am reluctant to take. I will be buying the L-39, though. It will be a good step towards two-seating again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaiber Posted July 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 I took the leap, and pre-purchased. Looking forward to learning it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vonrd Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 I'll be getting it too since I've actually flown it in RL. I used to do maintenance on two of them. Really well built and maintenance friendly and very much Warsaw Pact. Flys beautiful and acro is a joy. Took a while to get used to steering on the ground though... Here's one of them at Attitude Aviation in Livermore CA (I'm not a fan of the paint job): Here's the other one, now at the Hiller Museum in San Carlos CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaiber Posted July 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Also very cool news from Cobra at Leatherneck. The MiG-21bis will be updated for DCS World 1.5.0. This means the new cockpit and 3D model, and probably the DDR (East German) skins and BORT numbers! http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=145482 Very excited.

Britchot Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=145372 Bought! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaiber Posted September 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 I've pre-ordered as well. Looking forward to flying it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britchot Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 That's what I get for rushing, c instead of an s. It look gorgeous, hopefully this means 2.0 is close! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britchot Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 That's funny. I thought we had talked about the pre-purchase already but attributed it to my old age and something about deja-vu and the matrix. The post was bumped because of new skins, this one makes my purchase make sense: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaiber Posted September 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Yeah, I pre-purchased back in July when it went on sale. I think it's still supposed to come out in late September, with DCS 1.5. Very excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britchot Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Wags has teased us, yet again: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=146968 I'm totally making a mission with MQ-1's taking over all the cool airspace areas and putting the fighters in time out in a little MOA. HAHA! I successfully merged the topic. Yay me! Klaiber 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
