June 16, 20215 yr comment_69958 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. Report
June 16, 20215 yr Author comment_69960 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 :). Report

June 16, 20215 yr comment_69972 For some reason the last part went much quicker... it's done! Took about 1.5 hrs. Report
June 16, 20215 yr comment_69973 What skins were released with the Hind? I saw a Georgian one in the trailer, which made me happy. Any East German skin? (hopes). Report
June 16, 20215 yr comment_69974 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! Report
June 17, 20215 yr comment_69981 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! Report
June 17, 20215 yr comment_69984 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. Report
June 17, 20215 yr comment_69985 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! Report
June 18, 20215 yr comment_69995 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. Report
June 18, 20215 yr Author comment_70004 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? Report
