Ed Correia Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 It’s a big continent. A few more reports from the testers are still to come before we start compiling a release candidate. We are just as impatient as you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate a long testing phase which guarantees a flawless product then. So please be a bit more patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosqr Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Totally understood BUT I think announcements should be made closer to the real launch date, this avoids two things 01.- The agony of waiting 02.- The loosing of interest / emotion. When launched it will be bought but with less excitement effect as if it had been announced 5 days ago. As when an amazing surprise is launched, the effect is overwhelming. Hope you understand what I mean And as this could take even longer, is better to focus on new releases and recent announcements for the peace of mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave302 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 OK, I have a new theory: This is taking so long because Orbx developers have decided to add landclass for Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, and Iraq. Wishful thinking? Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Hello, discounting the acknowledged delays in this project, it is "taking so long" because it is a vast continent and there is a great deal of work to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave302 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Hmm. There has been no outright denial of my theory, so that's a plus in my book. Anyhow, thanks to the devs for their work on this. Looking forward to it. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldelorme_mtl Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 In a way, it makes sense that the Arabian peninsula comes with Africa. It was part of it until quite recently, geologically. They separated only around 30 millions years ago. That's where you see Orbx developers have a long view on things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dekla24 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I for my part am very excited for this, it will enhance my simulator a lot for new scenarios and flights in a region I've neglected! Had a very busy work week but kept checking the preview threads for new screenshot every day, hope some come soon :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsmpaul Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Wow!!! I only just logged in for the first time in months to see what was happening in the forums, and saw this thread. Africa is no. 1 on my flight simming interest list, and this will be an instant buy the moment I'm aware of its release. Take however long is needed to work on it, all the hard work will be very appreciated. Screenshots look fantastic! Keep up the good work! I spend most of my time simming in African areas, and am very much looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry, but the excuse "it's a large continent" just doesn't fly IMO. The other large openLC areas weren't in beta for nearly this long. I suspect that there are a lot of issues to correct and, hopefully, a few countries to add. Patience, and more patience, is what is called for here.
