E tam 10. Bawiąc się w adwokata diabła, zacytuję zgrubne kalendarium, które SkateZilla zapodał na niebieskim:
"Late 2007 - ED Was Given Permission to Convert DTT to Entertainment DCS: A-10C
Late 2011- DCS A-10C Entertainment was Released
Jan 2013 - Updated F/A-18C External Model Introduced
Early May 2013 - F/A-18C was said to Still be Planned, but not in Development Yet, and was noted that it would take longer than any previous Module.
Late May 2013 - Work On Cockpit Model was On Going
June 2013 - Plans were stated that after FC3 was Finished, the next DCS: Fighter would be the F/A-18C
December 2014 - DCS: F/A-18C is Confirmed to be in Full Development
Between Now and Then, things have Changed, Specifically the Original Plan was to have an older Lot Aircraft, However Recently the ED Changed this to Lot 20,
as a Result the Cockpit had to undergo a lot of 3D Art Changes, and the External Model was also re-done.
Dec 2014 -> Now is 30 to 31 Months.
A-10C Took a few years to Develop the DTT Version, and then another 4 to Convert it to the DCS:A-10C Version. So We'll say 72 Months to be fair.
There was Also Breaks in Development why Underlying Technologies were developed to Support the Hornet. (A2G Radar, Super Sonic PFMs, etc etc)
There was no Attempts to hide the length of development the Hornet Would take, it was stated up front before development was in full gear it would take significantly longer.
So Again, With all due respect, please dont assume and speculate on how long something has been in development or how long it should take."
Więc na razie jeszcze pod względem czasu rzeźbienia nie przegonił np. Viggena, tyle, że o Viggenie nikt nie wiedział lub się nim nie interesował, a projekt 18 wręcz przeciwnie - jest obarczony "chcicą" graczy od samego początku.
