Orbx is pleased to announce that its DCS: Kola map is now available in early access. The map covers northern Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the Russian Murmansk Oblast and parts of the Karelia region. It also includes large areas of the Barents Sea and Norwegian Sea to the north and west, ideal for aircraft carrier operations.

The DCS: Kola early access release is offered with a special 20% discount ($55.99 USD), for a limited time whilst the Orbx team work to expand the content, detail, number of air bases, cities, towns, villages and infrastructure. The map price may also increase accordingly, so make sure you secure your discounted version now.

The early-access release of DCS: Kola focuses on a large area that spans the Finland/Russia border and encompasses, central Finland and the western parts of the Murmansk and Karelia regions of Russia (see map). Within that subregion are several higher detailed areas, centered on airports in Finland (Rovaniemi, Kemi Tornio plus two road airbases), and Russia (Olenegorsk, Severomorsk 1, Severomorsk 3, Monchegorsk, and Murmansk International), and their urban and rural surroundings and infrastructure. Outside of this focus area, two airports in Norway (Bodo and Laksekv) and three in Sweden (Kalixfors, Kiruna, and Jokkmokk) are functional but not fully detailed yet.



Key Features of the Early-Access Release

• Complete base terrain for the entire map area, with detailed topography, summer ground textures summer, shorelines, and lakes and rivers.
  
• An initial focus area spans the Finland/Russia border and encompasses central Finland and the western parts of the Murmansk and Karelia regions of Russia (see map).
  
• Four high-detail areas, focusing on two airports in Finland (EFRO, EFKE) and five in Russia (XLMV, ULAK, RU-1110, RU-4464, ULMM), and their urban and rural surroundings and infrastructure.
  
• Two road runways in Finland, near Rovaniemi and Sodankylä, respectively.
  
• Two additional airports in Norway (ENBO and ENNA) and two in Sweden (ESNQ, ESUK, and ESNG) are functional but not fully detailed at early-access release.
  
• Significant civilian POIs include bridges, vertical obstructions, monuments, hydro dams, power stations, port facilities, landmark buildings, open-pit mines, towns and small villages, and industrial sites.
  
• Improved night lighting for cities and towns.
  
• Main road and railroad network, with bridges and tunnels, which are connected across the map that allows long-distance AI routing.
  
• Natural landmarks and geographic features, such as Norwegian fjords, detailed coastlines, snowfields, forests and wetlands, tens of thousands of lakes, and large river systems.
  
• Map features represent the current era but includes allowances for the late-Cold War era – e.g., operational road runways and fully functioning Russian air bases – to enhance mission options.
  
• The Orbx team is collaborating with experienced DCS campaign creators Baltic Dragon and Reflected Simulations to create engaging campaigns.

Additional Features after Early-Access Release

• Complete set of winter textures that load dynamically based on mission date to accurately represent the cold and harsh climate of the Kola area.
  
• Additional detailed military airfields, including Andøya, Bardufoss, Kirkenes, Evenes, Vidsel, Kilpyavr, Alakkurti, and others.
  
• Additional military installations like naval and army bases, barracks, ports, storage areas, training areas/ranges, radar and communication sites, and air defense sites.
  
• Additional Cold War Era Swedish and Finnish road runways.
  
• Additional civilian airports, including Tromsø, Hammerfest, Ivalo, Luleå, and others.
  
• Additional detailed cities and towns, POIs, and industrial sites.
  
• Improvements to landscape features and detail, as well as additional areas with high-resolution aerial orthoimagery.

Hello fellow Kings and Queens! As promised last week, here comes a little sneak peek of what’s to come with the next update. Most importantly it will feature a brand new map: Wildbach.


Everything seems to be a bit larger than usual in the fruitful forests of Wildbach. The merchants often told tales of the gigantic, winding trees, hosting a plethora of the most colourful critters. But why might it be that no people ever chose to make this lush place surrounded by glistening rivers their home? Maybe everything is a bit larger in those woods, not only the delightful things…


We don’t have a set release date for the update yet, since there is still quite a bit of work to do and we want to make sure to provide you with a polished and well balanced experience. All we can promise right now is: We’re doing our best to get it out to you as fast as possible.

We’ll keep you posted about our progress and share some details about what to expect from the new update soon. As always, thank you all for being such an amazing community, thank you for your feedback and your support — it’s an invaluable contribution to Thronefall’s development.

All the best,
Jonas & Paul

As you might have noticed, there’s a new addition in the Hellbreach arsenal. And it packs a punch: Say hi to the crossbow. Just like we did in the How The Guns in Hellbreach Vegas Are Tuned - which some of the most avid readers among you might remember - we’re gonna be diving into the nitty gritty on what makes the crossbow tick!

Just like last time, this is going to be a more technical blog. We’re going to dive into the details of the various values that I’ve decided to tune the guns in Hellbreach to:

• Type
  
• Fire rate
  
• Damage
  
• Reload Speed
  
• Recoil
  
• Ammo Capacity

[h4]This one comes with a bang[/h4]
The crossbow is a unique weapon because each bolt is loaded with an explosive tip. You shoot, you wait, and… BOOM! It detonates. Unlike its medieval ancestor, our crossbow, is a highly, modern and much deadlier alternative. But we’re not making it too easy: The challenge lies in the slow reload speed.

[h4]So how would I use it?[/h4]
The Crossbow is an interesting early game weapon that can truly help you out in a pinch. It’s great for dealing with larger groups of enemies, very similar to the grenade launcher. Where the grenade launcher will explode immediately, the slight delay on the explosive bolt will allow you to tactically manoeuvre before it detonates. This is also it’s strength. Shoot, reposition while reloading, detonate, shoot again. Before you know it the dismembered demons will be crawling around you, ripe for the picking.



Excited for some explosive gameplay?

I hope you found this interesting! Let us know if you’d be interested in getting more of these detailed weapon stats!

And finally, now we’ve gained some new followers since last time; Some burning questions that have been on my mind:
What’s your favourite gun?
What gun did you get the furthest with?
