v1.03 Release Candidate thread

[Figeac]

Same here.

I really would like to see some sort of Amphibious landing mission for Assault ships, Albion, Wasp etc

This could hopefully reflect the load out of the unit, i.e. LCVP landing loaded platoons, LCU landing Tanks / APC's

Having the capability to use Helo's (Merlin HC 3 etc) to insert land forces would be great too.

At the moment the only way to do this is with a support mission and teleport event for each individual landing craft or helo.

This is obviously laborious and very time consuming.

An absolutely brilliant game, just needs a few additions / refinements. You are doing a great job of addressing issues / bugs.

Keep it up.

I was looking through GBUs in database and i realized that Mk84 has double the DPs than GBU-28. So it would be great to have separate DP for soft/surface targets and hard/buried targets. Example Mk84 is better on soft and GBU-28 would have superior penetration capability. Now its better to bomb hard targets with Mk84.

Also if i understand GBU-57 MOB was mentioned in Build 497 but i cant find it in Build 499 (couldnt download Build 500).

(I managed to download Build 500 and it has GBU-57)

That worked. Thanks

* Floating mines can now be detected by visual sensors (incl. eyeballs) on ships and aircraft who fly lower than 150m/450ft and slower than 200kts. Perfect-conditions detection range is 300 meters but actual detection range can be signficantly lower depending on lighting, weather etc.

* Includes updated & rebuilt versions of all official scenarios.

* Includes the v409 versions of the DB3000 & CWDB databases.

NOTE: There is a known issue with surface mine-sweepers maneuvering towards mines as they sweep past them, which causes exceptionally high losses. We are looking into this.

[Primarchx]

Tomcat-21! Oh, yeah!



ETA: Neither the TC-21 or the A-12A had an RWR able to detect a SPY-1 tracking them until they broke 120nm, the range of the system. Seems sort of weak for this model, but I suppose ESM is another platform's job.

[Zathras1]

Thanks, guys! [:)]

[lowchi]

Thanks! [8D]

[Kingfish72]

Just to let the developers know, Keep up the good work! I was part of the beta test invites but I opted to pay the full price. Not sorry I did one darn bit either. [8D]

[Dimitris]

Aaand we're done. v1.03 Final (Build 504) has been submitted to Matrix for preparation, testing & release.

A big thanks to everyone for their feedback and encouragement during this phase. We couldn't have done it without you!

Awesome! [&o]

When is it going to be released?

[Dimitris]

Within a few days if everything goes well.

[Maromak]

Have a good break!

[magi]

I think you guys did real good with this update.... The game is nicer playing for sure... Thank you for your work....

The only suggestion I would like to make.... And I would be surprised if someone else hasn't brought the subject up...... Is to be able to highlight an opposition unit.... And have an attack option in its menu... With prosecutable units then listed by proximity.... I believe the old Harpoon game had this feature and it was very useful when you were in a hurry......

[Casinn]

Enjoy the break!

This was resolved on Build 502.

[spookyer]

Good work guys.

Yes I second Magi's request, an intercept option when you right click on an enemy unit showing a list of your available units in intercept range would be great. As I recall I used this feature in the old harpoon and it was very useful, especially for prosecuting sub contacts.

[magi]

there are yet some problems..... my game is locking up at times....
