DCS: P-51D Mustang Coming in 2012

Even if two words have the same definition, they may have a different connotation, be used in different ways, situations.

 

Both shortly and soon are relative ...

[kam]

From the definition shortly and soon are technically the same...

 

Not in Valve Time :D

Christ almighty, you guys are only throwing oil on the fire... Leave it be! It will be done, when IT IS DONE...

Hello Guys,

 

Where can I pre-order the P-51 and the LockOn FC3???

 

Thanks...

[EtherealN]

Pre-orders are not available yet.

 

If it is done like it was with DCS A-10C, the pre-orders will be available when the product is complete enough for an open beta test. (Since pre-orders are slated to grant access to beta versions.)

 

As far as I know, the exact time when pre-orders will become available is not decided upon yet. I'm sure it will be announced when possible.

 

Also, note that the pre-order part of the newsletter speaks specifically about DCS P-51D, not FC3. I do not know for sure whether FC3 will get pre-order options.

Where to sign up for the newsletter?

I got my email this morning. Man, it was so cool to even see that BBD in the poster. Itching like a ****nut for the beta, FC3, next wing aircraft, and of course, whatever you throw my way guys! Keep up the good work. And happy Easter!

D'oh!!!

 

But just out of curiosity, will i5 @ 2.93 GHz, and Ati 5650 mobility be still good for the multi-core stuff? My heart is pouncing like a monkey on steroids.

Don't know if this will find applicability in your case, but I received my mail at the address utilized to log onto the Master server as opposed to the e-mail in my forum profile.

DCS/ED only has on email address for me. I have never logged into multiplayer.

[Phantom88]

For me I really don't care if I receive a ED/DCS E-mail or not,I check the forums 200X more than my E-mail anyway! lol;)

if your using gmail, check your spam box, as the news letter is getting flagged as spam..

[Ed1]

Hey, just got the newsletter on gmail no problem. I am freaking thrilled that you guys are doing this. Keep pumping out the kick-ass material, and I'll keep buying it. All those prop haters at the start of this thread don't have one damn bit of sense. Whining like children. Jets are for kids, everyone knows that. I am simply happy anytime a quality flight sim is released, especially if it happens to be one of my favorite aircraft of all time. Looking forward to flying it. Need a faster computer now though. Son of a...

Put a jet engine in it and it'll go faster instead of that slow propeller :pilotfly:

 

And it's good to know kids are flying jets

[ErichVon]

Doesn't really float my boat this - what are you going to do with it? Take off, fly around a bit (to do what?), land and then never use it again. Still, if you love the P51D then I guess you're in for a treat with its DCS detail. I'll be giving this a miss until maybe we have some appropriate scenarios and equivalent units.

 

Dogfight with other P-51s, if they ever allow it on the servers.

I am ignorant as to what is available online as to MMORPG combat flight sims. My experience online is Aces High since 2007 and DCS since last year. Lock On Flaming Cliffs 2 I have, but I have never gotten very deep into it. I did try WWII Online, maybe 2 or 3 years ago, but their aircraft were substandard compared to Aces High, despite the fact that the book, "In Pursuit" written by Johan Kylander in 2006 was based on his experience with this sim. It was a freebie read at http://tinyurl.com/ehstj Maybe it still is. So, where do you get a P-51 to dogfight in other than Aces High, that is at least as good as Aces High (http://hitechcreations.com) ? What program source do you use? Does your Air Combat League allow other program sources to be compatible with each other? I know FSX has a P-51, but I do not think it is combat capable, but I do not know this as fact, just hearsay. I know a few Aces High guys come to DCS to fly combat sorties with the 2 current aircraft. Give us a better P-51D to fight with, I bet more guys will come over, too. But Aces High does have advantages over DCS in a few areas. I like both sims. (I have lost my ability within posting messages to the forums to have separate paragraphs for separate ideas. What has changed?)

 

Found a better, free, online source to the book in .pdf

Sorry I haven't tried Aces High but I am just suggesting that when DCS-P51D arrives the Competition site(Ladder structure) is ready for it..as for FSX..well with the tacpack coming soon that also could happen if it is compatable with the P-51D the even better..all you have to do is just check it out..( www.aircombatleague.com ):thumbup:
