Vogel Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Good news everyone! Mi-24P is due for EA release TODAY! Please view the following post: https://forums.eagle.ru/topic/272848-dcs-mi-24p-early-access-start-date-planned-16th-june-2021/page/4/?tab=comments#comment-4693573 I hadn't pre-ordered but the discount at time of this post is still live for anyone still on the fence. Don't know if I'll get a chance to fly her this week, but it's exciting she'll finally be available for us to fly.

Vogel Posted June 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 I'm hearing reports from folks that Cyprus was added to Syria also, which is doubely exciting as I can finally fly out from RAF Akrotiri where I used to live :).

At my download speeds its going to take me 24hrs to download it. 60gb will push it closer to 48hrs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vonrd Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 For some reason the last part went much quicker... it's done! Took about 1.5 hrs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaiber Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 What skins were released with the Hind? I saw a Georgian one in the trailer, which made me happy. Any East German skin? (hopes). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balge Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 I have to correct myself: its 32gb to download but 61gb to unpack. Its not going to take me 24hrs but I still have about three to four hours to go... Can't wait! Klaiber 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britchot Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Had zero time to even sit in the thing, yesterday, but I did update all 3 machines. Showed the gunner the release trailer and she's excited to give it a shot, even in VR! Klaiber 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yogi Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 I started the DL when I got home yesterday, checked it this morn & still 6gb left. It will be done by the time I get home again. Lipfert, Klaiber and Britchot 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lipfert Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 Kameraden, Downloaded and installed, all the components have arrived to rebuild my second system for hosting. Probably going to work on it Friday, need a break from things. S! Klaiber, Britchot and Yogi 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balge Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 Had some time to try the hind yesterday. It flies like i thought it would: like a tank. Really nice feeling. I don't really know how to work the CCIP feature of the sight yet and Petrovic and me are currently not getting along but I guess that will get better with practice.

Vogel Posted June 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 I've not had a chance to fly or look at learning any of the systems yet. I booted up DCS and put an AI over Akrotiri to check out the layout, which is spot on to be honest. Although I don't remember the NCO patch having pools in all their back yards lol! Even found our old house on the officers patch on the corner, the buildings don't look anything like they should but they did a good job with the overall layout of the base itself. I've heard a few people having issues with Petrovic yeeting them into the ground when they switch to the gunner/observer position. Anyone here had similar issues?
