1.Yeah, a huge 128-player online campaign for DCS!
2.Online service can give much more than that of a pirate copy.
3.Those people who only want to get a pirate copy of a game are nothing but rookies of certain games---they won't buy any game unless one day they fall in love with that game. And you ED guys know,many players love your LockOn game and they support you by buying it. And your anti-copy protection just adds some nuts to them.And those people who just have too much time so that wandering something to do may play that game but quickly get tired of it then throw it into shit.
In fact, a "real lover" will do his best to love his "honey"---buying the game instead of getting a pirate copy. I'm serious.
4.Official online campaign system for future DCS. People can join the battle at anytime anywhere,flying Ka-50,A-10A,AH-64A,F16C,Mirage-2000,Flanker,or any aircraft they preffer(by buying the specific aircraft module of the DCS),doing what they should do(like a real pilot in the real battlefield). It could be a dynamic online campaign,start from a July and end in November or on next year's some day without a server reset or anything that old games do.
Yeah,I mean it,a continuous real-time-depend online campaign
