love those videos were the guy comments (with a loooot of pation) the planes.

they are very instructive ( the prop one on the spit is my recommendation to anyone who wants to understand different types of props!) and they put water in my mouth...

shame its to expensive and nothing much to do other than giving it a quick spin

they are modeled right for A2A. . . but yeah the DM and bullet / weapons physics opens up a whole extra dimension

And its just exciting to shoot, rocket, and bomb stuff well they have the tacpac thing, but they'd have to have a new modeling scheme for ww2 stuff . . .






DCS isn't going to be much competition for CLOD


http://forums.eagle.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=164

in their FAQs they state:

the mustang can fly with or against the a-10 and blackshark,


Q: Will units from the world war 2 era exist, like ME-109's and Ju-87's?
A: That has yet to be determined. While we understand the desire for WW2 counterpart aircraft, DCS is not intended to be a full WW2 era simulation.

Q: Will a world war 2 era map be included?
A: No, DCS is an open simulation environment, it is not a simulation of a specific time period.

Actually, it is for me.

In the past weeks since the release of the P-51 I've spend many hours fighting with (or against) other Mustangs over the Black Sea coast. Hours spent with CloD: zero.

The new DCS World architecture allows 3rd party addons to be implemented much easier, I'm really hoping for other developers to join in. I'd be more than happy to buy any aircraft on a level with the DCS or A2A stuff.

Yes, it's going to be awesome shooting down droves of P-51's in my MiG-21bis when it's released.

Now if they released a MiG-15 and F-86 to go along with that P-51, THAT would be interesting.........

Hehe... yeah, those shots of the Mig looked great, can't wait to see that beauty finished!

But then we'd nead a Corsair II, a Crusaider and a Phantom II for competition. I wonder if they have runway cable arresting gear for those short strips?

A fighter sim without contemporary opponents is like, well, fishing or shooting without beer!

DCS don't plan on creating a dedicated WWII sim, but they're not stopping third parties from doing it ... watch the skies my friend

quoted for truth. BTW There is a rumor to suggest that once DCS world goes gold/live there'd be A LOT more planes coming out for that as well. No mention of the types though. Although, with Irissoft now coming in as a third party content station.... I'm definetly wondering if DCS is running away with the trophy that CLOD was supposed to get.
