element1108 Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 I'm an aviation fan, historical has significance to me...the only sim I need on my comp these days is dcs so for the sheer love of flying combat aircraft I'm all over this. The modern setting has no significance to me, the airframe is bad ass. I've said it before and I stand by it, I'll purchase all dcs modules simply because they are IMHO the best combat experience out there. I understand it's not for everybody , but some of the opposed opinions seem to lack an understanding of what flying legends is all about and how it's being developed. I really cannot see an ounce of negativity in this announcement as any new developments in the genre are positive. Especially because it's not taking away from the main focus.
bartleby Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 Neat. WWII isn't my favorite era, but still ought to be interesting. I'm sure there'll be some strange/fun/amusing missions made for this. Hopefully at some point the Legends line will branch out into the early jet era, too. Maybe we should open a collection for TFC to buy a MiG-21? How much do they run these days, anyway? DCS Wiki! :book:
Yurgon Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 Count me in for pre-order! I know Il-2 only scratched the surface in terms of flight model, engine management and other factors. Can't wait for DCS P-51D.
Frostie Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 Looks great but i wonder the combatible thingie with a-10c / BS 2 etc .... that makes things a bit ... odd. Dont' worry, to make DCS: P-51 compatiable you'll probably need to purchase DCS:BS3 and DCS:WH2. :wacko: "[51☭] FROSTIE" #55 51st PVO "BISONS" Fastest MiG pilot in the world - TCR'10 https://100kiap.org
Topcat357 Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 P51's best adversary Hi all, I still find it strange to put the Mustang in the A10's environment, but I cant wait to fly it! As I understand it, this is just the beginning of several 'Legends' planes to be modeled. So...my question is: What would be the best / most fun match up with the Mustang? In my mind, it would have to be a German plane, most likely the Me109 or FW190. Now, these dogfights in the DCS environment could be epic! TC
Schnarre Aggro Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 well folks ... it not difficult to understand everyone of you ..... but just think about it-> JUST ENJOY THAT THERE IS STH NEW and the real simbusiness wont die out just a silly comparison: You really like blonde girls ! - would u kick a redhaired girl out of ur bed ? i mean .... be honest ;-) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] There are two types of fighter pilots - those who have, and those who will execute a magnificent break turn towards a bug on the canopy . . . . http://www.youtube.com/user/schnarrsonvomdach http://www.twitch.tv/schnarre https://www.facebook.com/pages/Schnarre-Schnarrson/876084505743788?fref=ts

JozMk.II Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 You know, we'll likely be able to finally empty the tank behind the cockpit first, as actual P-51 pilots did. I did not like that the P-51 in IL-2 emptied this tank last without my consent. I don't know if the P-51D would have been my first choice for a WWII study sim(I'd have liked the Jug(P-47) or Lightning(P-38)), but, knowing ED, this will more than likely end up being another excellent DCS module. I'll likely purchase it to support ED, as well as toy around with what may end up being the most intricately-detailed simulation model of a WWII airplane yet. Here's to hoping that ED includes a European(or maybe Pacific) front in which we can fight realistic battles with this bird, complete with (at least) AI B-17s, Me-109s, and FW-190s.

Chazz_BMF Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Wow cant wait for this. Guess it will be interresting to see what the modders will do with it once it is released. P-51 + CBU-97 + AGM-65 + Sidewinder = ???

Daze Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Some people are saying that this P-51D would be easier for ED to design etc than the A-10C, KA-50, if that is true then perhaps ED have put out the P-51D in order to keep the community busy and to give them more time to work on the next fast jet. Also this brings a whole new community of people who are interested in Warbirds, meaning ED will make more money, which may even allow them to hire more people to get produce more planes at a faster rate than they currently are. Good move from ED IMO. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] First to Fight, First to Strike.
TwoLate Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Well done E.D. :thumbup: and (hope) will done :D I was expecting this plane P-51 Delta It hasn't got Delta wings but will be interesting online :joystick: Hogs vs Mustangs :pilotfly: ----------------------------------------------- I think this is a side step but moreover: "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." :P ----------------------------------------------- iAoZP6EuaDk Yep... it isn't German but fine :megalol: I hope we will get soon some Fokes, Messers, Spits, Las, Yaks and Zeros also :yes: ----------------------------------------------- I understand you Cali but you should understand these rows too: There are many simulations with P-51D and with F-16, F-15 and F-18. That's why i hope next DCS Serie (after P-51D and FC3) will an "almost-present-day" fast F-... or MiG/Su ^ ----------------------------------------------- I agree, but don't forget the same "hell of a more time needed" radar modeling/modes and other "classified" stuff if you'd like to get new Fighter/Multi-role DCS aircrafts too :book: ----------------------------------------------- No problemo: here comes: HogStang :smartass: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1273306&postcount=3985 man you are teasing me. I saw that. I am racking my brains for 4 days trying to get that polished look. :doh::doh::doh: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Daze Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 I'm looking forward to P-51D vs P-51D dogfights, best pilot wins. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] First to Fight, First to Strike.
RIPTIDE Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Should port it to FC3 so that the MiG-29 has something equal. New logo Wags, PM me for licensing. :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
MustangSally Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 As much as I love Mustangs, helped my Father for many years restoring his. Even had a couple of back seat rides, it doesn't really float my boat. I will get it for a bit of fun but not for any serious combat.

XarBat Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 It will be fun to bounce .50 cal bullets off of all those APCs and see how well there armor is modeled in dcs.
BaD CrC Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Well, what a VERY strange commercial move. I can only wish this will be a good one for ED as I don't want to see them in a difficult position for later developments. I only hope this P51 didn't move away too many resources or delayed A10 and BS2 patches, that's all. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden
Slamelov Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 I don't know why P51... What scenery?, what enemy planes? su25 vs Mustang?.
