westr Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Im going to post this as I saw earlier somebody had started a thread stating DCS sucked I shall not go into that as I know that thread has now been closed/moved but I would like to say. I tried a new mod for IL2 COD the other day which has improved the game and I have had fun with it but I still cant get it to work properly it stutters the controls are jerky and after playing it for some time I came back to flying my beloved DCS P-51 and it just made me realize once again that DCS are superb at what they do. If you take the time to set things up properly i.e your controllers etc and you learn how to fly her the mustang rewards you in buckets, the sim runs really smooth, you can be really precise with your gun-sight/controls and I just feel if this is what DCS can do with just one WW2 era fighter as we get more WW2 add ons it will be wonderful. So this is just to say DCS is great and keep building WW2 stuff and well as other stuff, and lots and lots of us think your great...... :thumbup: 1 RYZEN 7 3700X Running at 4.35 GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080Ti 32gb DDR4 RAM @3200 MHz Oculus CV1 NvME 970 EVO TM Warthog Stick & Throttle plus 11" extension.

WildBillKelsoe Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 DCS is the best combat sim in the whole wide world :) AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
Shaker Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) I saw the hate post as well..... I immediately felt the urge to post something as well. Glad westr beat me to it. I was hesitant to get P51 until ED added the FW190 to fight against. Since purchasing and flying it around I have to say that it makes the original IL-2 feel like an arcade game. Also IL-2 COD never felt out of Alpha stage. I have a high end computer and it never played that well. ED has impressed me, their product support and their attention to detail are second to none. I own all of the modules except for Combat Arms and the Huey. However I am sure I will purchase them one of these days. The community here is also top notch. Always willing to help and trolls are knocked down as soon as the pop up. WackATroll!! :cheer3nc: Here's to ED and this fine community! :beer: Edited June 9, 2013 by Shaker
westr Posted June 9, 2013 Author Posted June 9, 2013 Yes hello mustang a fellow dcs fan from Essex. It's a small world when you think we have members all over the world good to see that the good work of dcs is getting round. I believe a lot of data for the flight model of the p51 was gathered as the fighter collection have them at dux ford and when you think of the other fighters they have there we will be in for a treat.

PatrickR Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 +1 A great sim, which I'm sure is going to get even better over time! :thumbup:

You're not wrong ;) But I wouldnt hold your breath on anything else from the fighter collection making its way into dcs anytime soon
