Product description:
Emergency Call 112 - The Fire Fighting Simulation is an exciting, fully detailed simulation of the eventful life of a big city fire department. It was developed in cooperation with and modelled on the fire brigade of Mülheim, Germany. Mülheim has one of the largest and most modern fire stations in Europe. Particular attention was paid to realism and accuracy in creating the various missions.

Never before has a simulation offered such great level of detail for the fire department vehicles, including and especially the LF24, the fire truck developed by Mercedes Benz. All of the equipment and functionality have been incorporated. The tanker truck, turntable ladder and change loader are also fully functional and available for the virtual fireman / woman. An AI-controlled command vehicle is
also included. And of course, equipment can be removed and kept available for later use.

Accidents involving cars and trucks, oil slicks, a roof fire, houses with external and internal fires requiring breathing equipment, these exciting scenarios are randomly generated and promise hours of excitement. The authentic spread of the fires and lifelike, movable fire hoses with realistic handling needed to fight the fire make for an authentic playing experience.

Turn on the emergency lights and sirens and experience one of the world’s most exciting professions – the fire brigade. No previous fire simulation has gone to such lengths to provide such depth and realism.

Post by: wilso845 on December 26, 2015, 10:20:48 PM: Found the FAQs on Facebook:

1. When will the game out?
The release date is expected to be the 04/28/2016!

2. Will the game be released on console?
Until now, emergency 112 - Firefighters planned simulation yet for any console.

3. Will there be a Mac version?
Emergency 112 - Fire Department Simulation will be available both as a PC and Mac version.

4. Are there already videos?
An insight you can get in an exclusive video of NordrheinTV that has arisen at Gamescom 2015th There is also an interactive demo, with some of the vehicles.

5. If needed Steam?
Steam is required. You need a Steam account and a well-functioning Internet connection.

6. It will also appear in English?
Yes, it is also published an English version.

7. How much will the game?
The Box is expected to 29,99 €, the download costs € 29.95.

8. Will there be a Beta lets you play?
At a later time we will choose some beta testers.

9. There is also a multiplayer mode in the game?
To release there will be no multiplayer. A simulation, which works a lot with physical calculations, can be a lot of effort (and information) over the network to synchronize. In the game "Trapped Dead" Crenetic has indeed hammer out, but also learned that we must not take lightly the.

10. Will there be an alarm alerting?
There will also be alarms that have been triggered by a fire alarm system. This can sometimes be a false alarm. The process is as follows. Alerting, application drive, seek central fire alarm system, detectors locate, site visit, if necessary, fight fire, reset system and back to the station.

11. Will there be missions or rescue services is a train-RTW during disengagement to be here?
When the fire brigade disengages always travels with a RTW for self-assurance. Otherwise, a RTW will sometimes even move out, but that the player has no control and can use even not actively playing. It serves only the atmosphere and will make the station alive.

12. As the alert expires, it is a realistic Gong with a used matching announcement of giving what Einsatzart or vehicle number (individual and / or fire brigade) is different?
These are modeled on the original alerting the guards in Mulheim. An Example announcement: pre-gong, Caution, dumpster fire, use of TLF 1, Albrechtsraße, Nachgong.

13. Are the special signaling systems, in particular the horn from vehicle to vehicle or perceived differently according to the original?
It can be made of all special signals and implemented in the simulation exteriors.

14. Can you do something else as a fire? His home and when an application comes to go?
The player can move freely with his chosen character. It is advisable to stay in but the closer the emergency vehicles.

15. It is also eventually be possible to use the siren and bullhorn in the webcast?
Yes, once we have completed the exteriors.

16. Can the front flashers, turn tail blue lights isolated?
That's not decided yet. That's a decision between realism and playability. This is technically feasible but.

17. What needs to be done as a group leader in the simulation?
Mainly communication between troop and operational control lead.

18. Bring her also the original beeps and engine and pump noise in the game?
Yes, as far as one can absorb.

As said before I have been let down with previous fire fighting sims.
Time will tell and once available I will be buying.

We and Crenetic decided to delay the date of release for two months onto the 23rd of june 2016. Especially the markedly high level of detail in terms of graphics assured this decision. To make sure that the complex gameplay is at the same level we need a bit more time. In this context we would like to thank you again for your feedback that has elucidated that we could take this time. We appreciate your high interest on news about Notruf 112 - the firefighting simulation, so we wanted to give you this information on our decision promptly and transparently. Particularly we are focussed on quality management due to the planned beta-tests, after which we still work with your feedback. The additional time now gives us the chance on improvising and enlarging this project and work with your feedback before the release. In terms of building and having an extraordinary simulation-feeling we trust in your insight. We are looking forward presenting you some video sequences - just as a small consolation.

Title: Re: Notruf 112 | Emergency Call 112- The fire brigade simulation
Post by: wilso845 on May 04, 2016, 09:09:27 PM: Released from Aerosoft-

Together with Crenetic, we decided to postpone the release of Emergency Call 112 – The Fire Fighting Simulation by about 2 months to mid August. We know that this is yet another delay within a short time. We take transparency serious, though, and therefore wanted to keep you up to date on this matter immediately.
There are mainly two reasons for the delay. First, it is still our goal to develop a complex and richly detailed fire brigade simulation without compromising any aspect. Therefore, we think it is also in your best interest to wait a bit longer rather than getting a game that’s not really done or neglects some parts of its content just to keep the deadline.
Adding to that, the beta test for “Emergency Call 112” will begin shortly – we will announce that in a separate note. A huge thanks for all the numerous applications again at this point! We value your opinion and ideas very highly. This is why the additional weeks are also supposed to give the developers enough time to evaluate your feedback and implement it in order to create an even better game for everyone to enjoy.
We hope for your understanding for the further delay. Of course, we will continue to update your with more preview material – we have lots of ideas in that regard already. Last but not least, the new release date will be during Gamescom in Cologne – which means that if you plan a visit, you can join us to play and try out “Emergency Call 112” right there.

In Emergency Call 112 - The Fire Fighting Simulation we take a closer look at the game and show first gameplay scenes with the fire station, vehicles, the AI and so on. A mulitplayer is not included in the game but modding will be possible.
►Pre-order EMERGENCY CALL 112: http://amzn.to/1KTi9E1
Emergency Call 112 - The Fire Fighting Simulation is an exciting, fully detailed simulation of the eventful life of a big city fire department. It was developed in cooperation with and modelled on the fire brigade of Mülheim, Germany. Mülheim has one of the largest and most modern fire stations in Europe. Particular attention was paid to realism and accuracy in creating the various missions.

Never before has a simulation offered such great level of detail for the fire department vehicles, including and especially the LF24, the fire truck developed by Mercedes Benz. All of the equipment and functionality have been incorporated. The tanker truck, turntable ladder and change loader are also fully functional and available for the virtual fireman / woman. An AI-controlled command vehicle is
also included. And of course, equipment can be removed and kept available for later use.

Accidents involving cars and trucks, oil slicks, a roof fire, houses with external and internal fires requiring breathing equipment, these exciting scenarios are randomly generated and promise hours of excitement. The authentic spread of the fires and lifelike, movable fire hoses with realistic handling needed to fight the fire make for an authentic playing experience.

Turn on the emergency lights and sirens and experience one of the world’s most exciting professions – the fire brigade. No previous fire simulation has gone to such lengths to provide such depth and realism.

Post by: wilso845 on June 15, 2016, 09:50:19 PM: (https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/13442315_1830038953893312_1876161227023496691_n.png?oh=adcad8d29b04303bf13fad6d37000864&oe=580F5B3D)

About Modding

Will there be an editor to completely reconstruct vehicles etc?
You'll need a 3D Software that can export in the current FBX format, e.g. Maya 2015.
Is a software available that one can use for modding?You need the current version of Unity (free).

How are you guys going to make this game moddable?
Like can we change the world to a dutch world? Or only edit the vehicles to a dutch vehicle for example?

After a bit of getting used to Unity and our tools that should be possible. You'll need the current version of Unity and 3D software that can save in the current FBX format, e.g. Maya 2015.

Can we make new vehicles/maps?

Yes, therefore you need to get to know Unity and our tools.
About Sound and Radio

Do you use 3D sound?

The horn et. al. often sound dull and artificially monotonous.
Except for some sound effects like atmospheric sounds, all sounds are implemented in 3D, so you can have acoustic orientation in a 3D space.

Will there be different warning signals that can be seperately turned on and off? E.g. switching between pneumatic siren and electronic horn during an emergency operation? Will you be able to switch between urban, rural and pneumatic horns?

Yes

Will you be able to send status reports to the GF, EL and LST[CKr1] ? Will there be usable radio?

Yes, the personnel can communicate via 2 and 4 metre radio.

Will there be influential radio communication between your vehicle and the officer-in-charge/coordination centre?

We're not 100% sure about that. We're currently evaluating whether it makes sense to send off a radio message yourself or to automate this.

Can you send radio messages/status, request more personnel, change your operation level etc.?

Not in the release version, but these are interesting things for an update.

Can I hear current radio messages about the state of the operation or talks of my colleagues in the background?

Radio messages yes, but no colleagues talking. We found their sayings to be repetitive quickly and become annoying.

Are one or two horns included?

We will include three horns.

Can the horn and and blue light be seperately turned on?
Is it possible to use the blue light en sirens separate from each other?

Yes. The AI drives with blue light turned on and uses the horn only at crossings.

Will there be a radio network?
We want to include 2 and 4 metre radio.

About the Release

Is August the real final Date now or is that unsure again? Will there be yet another release delay?

Things can always go wrong. We are coming along well at the Moment though. Sometimes you have to adapt the schedule, e.g. when we notice some parts of the game are finished, but not really funny. Or we encounter bufs We cannot fix within the remaining time. This is especially important in the case of Emergency Call 112, as we develop an open world where everything has to work 100% - otherwise the game will collapse like a house of cards.

About the Beta Test

When will the beta start and when will chosen participants be notified?What about the beta? Are invitations sent already?

(I haven’t received an invitation nor a rejection) We cannot estimate this exactly yet. The game has to be in a state of development where the testers' feedback is actually helpful both technically and for the content. It won’t take too long, though.

About Multiplayer

Will a multiplayer com as an add-on or update? If so, will you be able to choose if you want to board one vehicle together or everyone leads another group?When multiplayer arrives, do you play with friends and AI in a Squad or alone?

We didn’t really think about this yet as multiplayer will not be part of the release. It is not that easy realizable though. As our simulation relies heavily on physics, We have to make sure the physics are the same on every System. They vary a bit, though, depending on the graphics card. Therefore we have to continuously check them to keep them in sync, which is technically rather difficult. We cannot estimate this exactly yet. The game has to be in a state of development where the testers' feedback is actually helpful both technically and for the content. It won’t take too long, though.

About Add-ons and Bonusses

Will there be a Season Pass or a Gold Edition?

Certainly no Season Pass. A Gold Edition might make more sense, Time will tell.

Is it possible to freely customize your Station or will you only be able to use the Mülheimer station.

With mods from the community possibly.

Will or could there be DLCs für more cities, stations, vehicles etc. that, for fairness' sake, be added to the game later?

We put a lot of time into the Station 1 of Fire Brigade Mülheim. If we could arrange a similar cooperation like that, then this is possible.

About Vehicles, Materials, Driving Physics and AI

Will the model of the cabin of the water tender be adapted to the real one? In the latest screenshots it had the same cabin as the LF24, which in reality has lots of differences.

No, creating the cabins was a really time-intensive job, therefore we made them the same.

Driving behaviour like GTA or rather like OMSI?

Neither ;-) The feeling and behaviour of driving was optimised for our game world and is a compromise between complexity (physics simulation) and accessibility. In contrast to OMSI, you'll have to drive around AI Traffic with 80km/h and special rights sometimes. Having a 100% realistic vehicle wouldn't be fun in this case.

How is the driving physics? Can the vehicle turn over in too fast curves etc.?

Our Realization of the driving physics allows inexperienced drivers to get through the traffic acceptably. It's forgiving of smaller excuses so you'll have to put in some effort to turn the vehicle over.

Does it have steering wheel support?

We included an Interface that supports and recognizes usual steering wheels. You'll have to configure and calibrate them before first usage.

How functional is the turntable ladder? Can you install a stretcher, water gun etc.?

At release, you can observe and extinguish fires from the basket. Height rescue will come later.

I understand you've done a full model of one particular fire engine for this, may I ask what is the fidelity like?

The fire was realized in a way that makes it spread realistically. Especially with apartment fires, Smoking gases and how streams are important. Those cone at the expense of the optics, though, which does not look like a particle simulation.

Will there be a hydraulic shears and hydraulic spreader?

Yes.

Can you use shears and spreaders?

Both have to be used in case of a traffic accident with a trapped person.

If the vehicles drive to the operation and the other persons are being simulated do I as the machinist drive with the fully seated vehicle? Does the rest of the crew run to the vehicle individually

You always play one person the crew and the AI controls the other persons. If I do not play the role of the machinist at an operation the AI machinist is driving me there.

Does the wastage of PA’s during an operation get simulated?

We didn’t intend to do that to not put the player under time pressure. If we would do that there should also be consequences for the player.

Is the environment, streets and the AI traffic challenging? Meaning are there narrow streets and are there cars from time to time that don’t make space for the fire brigade?

The road network has everything inclouded. From 30 kmh zones to multi track turning. We simulate up to 80 vehicles around the players and there will definitely happen miscellaneous things ;)

Do the vehicles have an integrated cruise control?

No.

About Stations, Tasks and Operations

After an emergency scene is complete, do you have to clear up all of the equipment you have used and drive back to the station? or is it a sudden "success / failure" screen?

The operation is only finished if all persons returned and are back on the station. Therefore all materials have to be picked up and put into the vehicle. Then the vehicle drives back to the station without special rights (alarm). When all returned the “evaluation” of the operation takes place.

Are there any benign emergencies? like broken elevators, locked doors or fallen trees? Emergencies that would not require a blue light?

Yes there are operations that don’t require a blue light / special rights.

Do you get grouped by the control station and have to coordinate operations? Can you work up from a7?

No, although the control station is part of the game you can’t take over the complex tasks of the managing controller.

Can you work up from beginner to commander?

Yes we have planned a career mode that you have to advance in to unlock new roles. The accessible ones are based on your accessed rank.

Can you play also the managing controller and the other roles like Group Leader and operational leader?

You can’t play the managing controller but all other roles that are involved in the actual operation.

Are there other things to do at the station besides waiting for a mission?

You can test a lot of tasks at the drill ground that also get explained while doing them.

Will there be work to do at the stations ( swap hoses check PA etc?)

Those tasks are very interesting but not planned yet. In Mülheim they work with a black and white area. We want to do that directly after the release. In the area used materirals are being swapped with new ones and put into the vehicle.

Will there be stratification (maybe in campaign mode where you can’t swap between roles?)

A stratification in A, B and C watch won’t take place.

How long does a shift take in real time? In other simulations you had no time to check things out because a 24 hour shift took like 20 minutes.

There will be very little point where the player gets under time pressure. You have to be at the operation location within 8 minutes to not get a bad evaluation. The day / night changes are only cosmetically in principle a shift goes as long as you want and you can also turn down operations so you will have enough time to do whatever you want.

Condition no, completeness yes otherwise you don’t get any new missions because the vehicle isn’t complete.

How is the mission system build? Does the AI do stuff as well or do you have to do everything yourself?

During the missions you have to accomplish the tasks of you current role, the rest is being dealt with by the AI.

Will there also be missions at the airport or on water?

An airport is a simulation on its own und would blow the limits development capacity but are both very interesting topics for updates.

Will there be missions with hazardous containmants?

Not at the release.

Do I walk around in work clothes all the time or can I swap dresses?

At the release it’s working clothes only, maybe we will add it later though.

Realistic play mode or free play?

Free play and career mode.

Will there be false alarm missions? Like in reality there will be a lot of false alarm missions.Will there be any follow up missions on the way back to the station?

No you always return to the station first to get the evaluation and offer the AI a specific point to reset, so it’s more of a technical problem.

Is it possible to use scba gear and is it possible to run out of air?

It won’t be possible to access a burning flat without an oxygen mask but there is no time limit for the usage.

Various

Will there be a demo?

Not sure yet.

Just wondering how realistic this will be, a full simulation or a reduced complexity game?

It will be a mix of the both the focus is on the details though.

Will there be support for steering wheels?

We have a hub that recognizes all current steering wheels. But they have to be configurated at the first start.

Will you be updating the web demo to show the AI Ambulance?

No.

Do you think you will start doing some developer-dairies similar to that of Fernbus? Showing some basic game mechanics like sound, physics, or the game world?

If we find the time to we will.

Do you think you have learnt a lot about the failures and successes of your previous games?

We learn with every single development although they can’t be compared to each other all the time.

Also with a big selling point of the game being the strong sense of detail in both the visual style and in-depth game play features, are you guiding Crenetic to be up there with the likes of SCS (Euro Truck Sim) as a well known and trusted simulation games developer with Emergency Call112?

I don’t think you can compare the two. Euro Truck is a series that is build up on each other with a way bigger developer team. Crenetic has a vision and tries to accomplish it as best as possible with the given possibilities. How good that worked out in the end only the players can decide.

Post by: wilso845 on June 29, 2016, 06:39:25 PM: Dear Community,
again we ask for your assistance. To detect a problem with the fire representation we need feedback from as many different graphic cards and systems as possible. To help us understanding the problem please download the fluid simulation here http://notruf.crenetic.de/downloads/fire.zip (http://notruf.crenetic.de/downloads/fire.zip) and write us in the underneath listed format an e-mail to feedback@crenetic.de (700 MB). Feel free to try all different options and then click on restart. Don't wonder - Sometimes it takes several seconds until the fire starts. Thank you!

Example format:
Used Hardware:
- PC/Laptop
- Graphic card
- Ram
- Operating system (32/64 Bit)

Problem:
Critical erroer / performance / no fire /fire doesn’t spread / fire shines through wall
Short description:
Describe the problem briefly
Reproducible yes/no:
Sometimes, always, under certain conditions etc.
If possible add a screenshot:
Please JPG format!

Post by: wilso845 on September 07, 2016, 09:16:57 PM: From the makers

"Dear Community,

you know our long texts. Usually it means something bad… We do have good and bad news for you. This September you get a free demo version of Emergency Call 112. In that one you can already play some of the functions.
Sadly we can’t deliver the final version this month with quiet conscience.

Due to the recent experiences of our latest product we want to delay the release of Emergency Call 112 a little more to make sure that your wishes and expectations are met.

But the release of Emergency Call 112 will definitely be this year!

A game is never 100% finished when it is released. Still we want that on the release day (10.11.2016) you receive a version that matches your expectations.

Of course we continue to keep you up to date with all news and information."

This was after saying @ Gamescom that this was 100 percent being released at the date stated >:( >:( >:(

Beta testing for life brah? ... Hope it is in a good state at release.

It kind of leaves a bitter taste in my mouth about how they said they wouldn't release until ready etc.... and now they are saying it's not 100 percent ready😩😩😩

Title: Re: Notruf 112 | Emergency Call 112- The fire brigade simulation
Post by: wilso845 on November 09, 2016, 07:54:16 PM: ABOUT THIS GAME

Emergency Call 112 – The Fire Fighting Simulation is an exciting, fully detailed simulation of the eventful life of a big city fire department. It was developed in cooperation with and modelled on the fire brigade of Mülheim, Germany. Mülheim has one of the largest and most modern fire stations in Europe. Particular attention was paid to realism and accuracy in creating the various missions.

Never before has a simulation offered such great level of detail for the fire department vehicles, including and especially the LF24, the fire truck. All of the equipment and functionality have been incorporated. The water tender, turntable ladder and swap body vehicle are also fully functional and available for the virtual fireman. An command vehicle is also included. And of course, equipment can be removed and kept available for later use.

Accidents involving cars and trucks, oil slicks, external and internal fires requiring breathing equipment, these exciting scenarios are randomly generated and promise hours of excitement. The authentic spread of the fires and lifelike, movable fire hoses with realistic handling needed to fight the fire make for an authentic playing experience.

Turn on the emergency lights and sirens and experience one of the world’s most exciting professions – the fire brigade. No previous fire simulation has gone to such lengths to provide such depth and realism.

Features:

Fire brigade modeled on Mülheim’s real state-of-the-art fire department, set in a fictitious town
Highly-detailed vehicles, such as the LF24 fire truck, a tender truck, turnable ladder vehicle and command vehicle
Removable equipment
Realistic, flexible, moveable hoses
Interior and exterior fires
Technical assistance for accidents
Realistic fire spread using a fluid, dynamic simulation

Many different scenarios including:

Traffic accidents
Oil slicks
Burning rooms
Small fires in industrial areas
Blocked roads
Fire alarm

Night operations
Navigation systems in the fire trucks
Functional light pole on the LF24
Sophisticated AI to control the interaction between the fire fighters
Realistic traffic at the site of the fire or accident
An open game world where all of the buildings can be a scene of the action

Guys stay away, do not spend your cash on this. It broken at every point glitches and crashes. As soon as it was released 170 different bug reports were made. They made a patch and released it at 9am uk time, this in turn made it worse. I will continue to run with it and keep you all updated but do not waste your money.

Angry Regards

"We would like to offer you the chance to decide whether you would like to have instant access to the latest updates for emergency 112 or rather wait until the version has been extensively tested. Therefore we will provide you with a beta branch on Steam. We will upload new patches will still be in the test phase. For those who do not want to wait, or for those who want to participate in the tests, here´s your chance to access to the latest version.
Please note that we can neither guarantee the functionality of the beta branch nor can we offer support. However, we are always happy about your feedback and suggestions. After testing, we will provide the tested patch on the normal Emergency Call 112 branch.
To select the beta branch please do the following: Open your Steam Library -> Right click on Emergency Call 112 -> Properties -> Betas -> and "Beta - beta group" "

Post by: Don_prince on November 15, 2016, 11:40:47 PM: Beta test acces for players is not good. Alpha test access is even worse....

Testing is best left to the proffesionals. I have been an alpha tester for some time and at some point and for some company we ended up taking over QA work. Mind you that this A listed company did not pay us but their legal team could sue the crap out of us.

Still I learnt over there while working with a noob tester team and proffessional guys that testing is not for everyone and the new guys usualy left after the 2nd test session.

Indeed, I was a NDA bound alpha & beta tester for Kesmai on AirWarrior. Once it moved to beta I would guess that 1/2 the guys involved in it were just there for early access & contributed little if anything. I have no doubt this title had similar issues.

Post by: wilso845 on December 03, 2016, 11:12:09 AM: It's like it's being taken back ward from complete to development

As you may have noticed, the past few days have been rather quiet when it comes to Emergency Call 112. That doesn’t mean we work less on the product, though. Quite the opposite, we’re currently working on updating the engine to version 3.4. That’s supposed to improve support of AMD CPUs. Furthermore, we’re optimizing the performance around the fire station.
This is a pretty hefty and complex task, which means we have to test several aspects before we can upload the patch to the beta branch. We’re constantly tinkering with these things and other fixes and are confident we can make the update available to you in the near future.
NOTE: In case you can only see a colourful cube instead of fire, please drop us an e-mail with your DX diagnosis (dxdiag) at notruf@crenetic.de.

Posted: 26 Jan 2017

Hello to all firefighters, vehicle cutters and wielders of the broom!

As you know, we still work to improve "Emergency call 112" and plan to add new content. There are a lot of tasks on our list as:
•   Bug fixing and performance optimizing
•   Adding pedestrians
•   New missions (for example: height rescue, bigger fires as far as technically possible)
•   Additional missions containing the turntable ladder
•   Redesign of room fires with a focus on extinguishing tactics
•   Variations of existing missions
•   Link status messages with the game logic
•   Enhance AI settings, from DIY to simply watch and let the AI manage the game
•   New player role "Head of operations"
•   Operating the pump, including water level display and turning it on or off
•   Rank marks
•   Equip SCBA as separate task
•   Changing to firefighting uniform before a mission
•   Adjusting multiplayer to singleplayer mode

This is no definite list of future update content and no chronological order of things to do. Maybe some of it is technically impossible.
Our top priority is fixing existing bugs. We will regularly upload beta releases containing fixes and new features. Of course we will update the live version as well, but in larger intervals.

We'll keep you informed!

Best regards,
Markus

We’re all looking forward to the first Emergency Call 112 DLC „KEF – The minor operations vehicle“. You don’t have to wait much longer, though – on June 1st 2017 it will be ready for operation, and the minor vehicle will take centre stage!

About This Content
The add-on “KEF – The minor operations vehicle” is the first extension for Emergency Call 112 – The Fire Fighting Simulation. It adds the namesake minor operation vehicle (German: Kleineinsatzfahrzeug, KEF) to the player’s fleet that’s being driven by a single person.

Minor operations vehicles are being used for tasks that require only a few people, which mostly means technical assistance where different tools and material are needed. Players can look forward to callouts like: emergency door openings, cleaning oil spills, and barriers, as well as the kind of operations the fire fighters are tasked with following heavy storms.

The KEF included in this add-on is a highly detailed model of a VW T4 HD. As you’ve come to expect it from the vehicles in Emergency Call 112, the KEF includes many freely removable tools and equipment as well as a navigation unit. Using the KEF, the player can be called out to scenarios like water pumping, tree pruning and shuttering of doors or windows. If necessary, he also has to care for erecting barriers for self-protection.
Features
•   Highly detailed vehicle, minor operations vehicle (Kleineinsatzfahrzeug, KEF)
•   Freely removable tools and equipment from the vehicle
•   Technical assistance after heavy storms
•   Technical assistance after fire fighting and police operations

Different deployment scenarios like:
•   Pump deployment after heavy rainfall
•   Pump deployment after water pipe breakage
•   Barriers during operations
•   Tree pruning
•   Removing of torn-off branches
•   Emergency door openings
•   Shuttering of doors and windows
•   Night time operations
•   Navigation unit in the vehicle

"The DKEF preparing Patch is available now on the beta branch!

One again the new features:
• Improved performance within the fire station
• Reworked fire extinguishing, so some fires take more time to be put out
• Reworked fire simulation in interiors and supermarkets, leading to better extinguishability (if that wasn’t a word yet, we’ve just invented it)
• Interactive vehicle displays with status information

Multiplayer:
• Implemented a chat feature
• First operations are playable
• More than 6 players at a time are possible

This is the way of the developers today unfortunately. I agree that it is frustrating that devs produce DLC's, season passes etc when the game is unfinished. I posted it as people are interested in this sim. :book

True. But for all of the complaining about DLC and microtransactions, gamers won't stop buying them. EA alone pulled in $1.297 billion in fiscal year 2017 from DLC and microtransactions (https://www.techpowerup.com/233184/you-love-microtransactions-ea-earns-usd-1-297-billion-in-fy-2017).

Notruf 112 | Emergency Call 112 - Rubicon

•   New: New mission for the TL vehicle
•   New: Added more small conflagrations

•   New: Missions on motorways lead to traffic jam near the scene

Hello,

we implemented a new, experimental feature in 'Emergency call 112 – The Fire-fighting Simulation'. There is a new option that gives you the possibility to chose, which units are sent on an assignment. We will apply the experiences we gain with this feature in the second part of 'Emergency call 112 – The Fire-fighting Simulation'.

We would like you to use this new option and have fun with it. If something does not work as expected, we would appreciate if you send the game_log.txt you find in folder \Documents\Notruf 112 to notruf@crenetic.de .
Thank you very much,
Your Crenetic Team

The feature:
First you have to unlock the possibility to play as Head of operations (achievement). Afterwards you get the option to select which units are sent to an assignment, when you start a mission in the control room. You can deselect vehicles using the check boxes.

If all designated units are sent on a mission nothing changes.

If you deselected units and/ or added others, you have to actively change into the role of Head of operations to assign tasks or alert further units. E.g. a fire attack has to be ordered using the Commander Menu of the Head of operations. Afterwards you can switch to the attack squad and complete their tasks.
