As someone who has played with the MDS I can tell you that there are indeed some interesting "bugs" to deal with. It's cool, but it's not perfect. I hope they can figure it out, remember Oleg always maintained that it wasn't possible to do it but maybe it's more likely he knew already the headache that it was going to be to make it work. Getting everybody to "synch" up is just the tip of the iceberg.

For me the complete opposite applies, dump everything else just to give me the Hs129, as real men don't hide in the dark they actually fly in the weeds in broad daylight where every man and his dog can have a pot shot at you, both from above and below ;)

S!

The MDS there is no an extravagance!

When IL2 was released internet connection not allowed speed enough to put togheter players online and IA in dogfight servers without ruin playability...

Keep today (ten yars after) this siystem is an anachronism, if we can change things through new patchs there is no reason not to do it!

Keep the good work DT! Keep the MDS! ;)

Cheers!

my very PERSONAL opinion about the MDS is the following:
IF it make the biggest proplems and is causing the delay of 4.10 i would skip it !

the biggest and most known dogfightservers in the HL will stay with 4.09 anyway to be compatible with their MODs (and at least UP includes Zutis MDS already).
They will stay with the MODs because they "need" all the flyable planes and stuff that the "default" IL2 has not !

sure, in a time, the MODs will be compatible to 4.10 (with its new FM, navigation ads and so on). And than again these MODs will MOST propably contain Zutis MDS again............

so, why harm with it in an official, default gameversion ?!


as i play online 99,9% COOPs ;) , triggers would be much more interesting :)

I agrea with Frankyboy.
No mather how great the MDS would be, we have to wait for it anyway, if they would release the rest that does work bugfree, then we would at least have all that already. Team Daidalos can still continue working on the MDS and include it in a future patch. After all, they do this for free, without being payed so, who are we to complain if the MDS is not included.

~S~

bummer. I'm sure im going to love all the other work done on 4.10, but I was really looking forward to the multi-crew as a way to ease my non hardcore flight sim friends into playing il-2 with me. $10 on steam makes it easy for me to give the game away.

Keep up the good work, but try to ram that feature in however you can!

Motion seconded :).

You sir sound like BlitzPig material.

MDS 1.2 for v4.10

What are the new features of this added/removed please.

As many others who have MDS missions, it would be good to know what needs to be changed using the FMB to keep them usable.

For example:

In the past sometimes mission need tweaking after patches change aircraft performance, but with no mention in the updates read me that anything was changed. but the mission is different because there were changes made we were not told of.

It would be good if we are notified what differences there are in advance, or at the release point so there's no errors in the missions.

Since beta testing is incomplete, it seems unlikely that DT could answer this with certainty right now. My advice would be to wait for the readme.
