soverein Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 I think DCS should expand the portfolio for this WWII game. While the P51 is a good plane, WWII had many other fantastic aircraft! > Supermarine Spitfire > Messerschmitt ME109 > Focke-Wulf Fw 190 The Battle of Britain was one of the greatest aerial combat theatres in history! Not P51 missions where you escort bombers!

WarthogSmurf Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Euh shall we first wait until the P-51D is actually released and then expand it =) ?

MadTommy Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 From the wording of the news release, it sounded to me like other 'classics' would follow. I suppose it depends upon the success of the P51 release. i5-3570K @ 4.5 Ghz, Asus P8Z77-V, 8 GB DDR3, 1.5GB GTX 480 (EVGA, superclocked), SSD, 2 x 1680x1050, x-fi extreme music.

leafer Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Would someone tell me why, at the beginning of the fight, did the mustangs turn right and not left, and why didn't the 109s climb when they have speed advantage? ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
ESA_MistrL Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 I guess neither ED nor any other Co within the entire software bussines is able to develope at the same time the desires and the dreams of every single buyer/fan/supporter. P51 is not even on the stores and we already are asking for something else. And besides, taking into a consideration that is ED´s first attempt into old era birds, it shouldn´t be quite clever what you Soverein are demanding Cruz de San Andres First learn to fly. Then learn to fight. [sIGPIC]www.cruzdesanandres.com[/sIGPIC]
ED Team JimMack Posted March 2, 2012 ED Team Posted March 2, 2012 Would someone tell me why, at the beginning of the fight, did the mustangs turn right and not left, and why didn't the 109s climb when they have speed advantage?

SimFreak Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Release one, than another. There needs to be a start....
Lib Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 (edited) I think DCS should expand the portfolio for this WWII game. While the P51 is a good plane, WWII had many other fantastic aircraft! I would pay a lot for a F4U Corsair with Carrier take off and landing !!! :pilotfly: Edited March 2, 2012 by Lib

Vekkinho Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Yeah, it's kinda strange decison of adding P-51D into a Caucasus map (where it never flew IRL). So IMHO better than adding new WWII aircraft is adding WWII theaters of P-51D activity. And I really hoped Jim Mack was a Spitfire MkVb or VIII fan... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

power5 Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Obviously the re-enactment did not have the same environment of the actual dogfight but how could the 109 not have a shot on the P51 when it was climbing on his 6?

You explained it already yourself. :P The illustrations in that series aren't really representative of all the dimensions of those fights. Planes are routinely depicted as much closer to each other than they really were etcetera etcetera.

Chill31 Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 WWII is a classic era for aviation that needs a modern flight sim like this to tackle it again. I'd love to see eagle dyn have two teams with one modelling WWII and one working modern aircraft. Who knows if there is that kind of money in the flight sim market though...regardless, I'm happy that they produced it and will buy it regardless of price based solely on the outstanding products they have already turned out.
leafer Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 I can see that happening if DCS: Stang sold really, really well. Like million units well. ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
