DCS A-10 is a study sim for a single aircraft - the A-10C so if your not into modern ground attack procedures or A-10's (I am by the way) you really can't count it as an alternative.
Also to get the most out of it you really need to invest in some serious HOTAS gear.
Until I got my Thrustmaster Warthog setup and Cougar MDF's I was having to use the Active pause to actually target anything.
It is really neat to stick the cougars on a second monitor an have the multifunction displays showing through them. It really makes the game immersive.
I haven't played multilayer in A10 yet but they were promising to make Black Shark compatible in multilayer with it. Have they done that yet? If your into Air to air combat your limited by the choice of plane.
ROF is a good flight sim if your into WWI planes, and the basic game is free so you couldn't complain about the price tag. Also if you look out for the specials you can build up a nice little stable of your favorite WWI planes on the cheap.
Don't expect a parachute though! They don't call us the '20 Minuters' for nothing! WOOF!
Cheers!
