And that is just your opinion because they have said ww2 is their best return on investment. And although I do occasionally play that other sim I prefer DCS by a large margin even for ww2. The increased depth in systems management dcs has over it makes for far better immersion and more enjoyment. The flight sim community is quite diverse and there's room in DCS for all of us from ww2 to civil to cold war to modern. It always disapoints me when someone disparages someone else's niche because it "wastes resources" that could be spent on their own pet project.

I think I saw somewhere there were about 50k DCS users on steam. A lot of those probably download ot to try the free planes and move on. But combined with standalone I imagine the mainstream modules sell considerably more than 15,000.

I know this is borderline on the rules, and I apologize. But another WW2 sim has an excellent dynamic career mode. DCS is far superior in many other was but I hope some inspiration is taken from that sim.

I hate to admit but I actually think the buffalo would be cool to have...

:megalol: can also be used for RATO!

I wasn't trying to be pedantic but you know how the DCS community is. If polychop doesn't meet whatever goal they have set to release news people will remember this post and throw a fit when there's no news.

Not that I've seen. Do the math though, they show a picture of a hellfire, they've teased the kiowa, they hope to share news. My guess is deals are being negotiated.

They said they hope to be able to share news, not that they will.

New battlestar is superior to old battlestar in everyway.

HAHA

Yea buddy we all want it to release perfectly complete and bug free day 1. But thats not how things work around here... Maybe don't participate in early access.

A fair guess would be the exact same as the F-18.

I think it's been said it's an "unlikely" because of still classified systems.

Monday September 23rd is the first day of autumn in the northern hemisphere. Anyone remember that cat's count down to spring?

Crap... Well according to wikipedia they went from the A and B model 16s to the F-15. Maybe ED will take pitty on me and give us a FL livery anyway so it will be useful in multiplayer.

That doesn't mean Florida never got the C block 50. I'll admit I haven't done my research on that.... But there's a good chance they had them at some point.

I'll start of with my home state. Hope to see it as an option.

I love it. Lets get that sucker into the user files.

I fly it from the left seat with a hat switch controling the camera.

Someone's mod?

Well that'll do! haha

How long it flies depends on the supply of parts. You can probably fabricate everything you need for the airframe but radial engines are getting expensive to support because not many people use them so there's no economies of scale when manufacturing parts. I have no idea if it's a different story for the An-2's engine in the rest of the world though.

Its definitely louder and looks very nice in VR, but she is pretty slow.

Maybe I had takeoff assist on by default? First take off this thing went straight down the runway for me. I was shocked by how easy ir was so it must be the assist. Maybe try that to start?

Maybe they are coming and this free map we keep hearing about is on the eastern front?
