Eagle Dynamics hat soeben den ersten Hotfix für DCS 2.7 veröffentlicht. Damit gehören nun die Abstürze beim zweiten Laden einer Mission der Vergangenheit an. Weitere Fixes für die neuen Kampagnen, die MiG-21, die JF-17, sowie für die „Hornet“ und „Viper“ sind ebenfalls enthalten.

Das Update startet automatisch beim nächsten DCS start. Beachtet bitte weiterhin, dass DCS 2.7 – und somit auch der Hotfix – nur für die Open Beta und Windows 10 verfügbar ist.
