Phenomenal product but so very different than what we're used to:
1. It's ground pounding, not dogfighting. You want to avoid enemy aircraft at all cost!
2. The challenge is not in flying (easy in the A-10) but in locating targets and learning to operate avionics and equipment.
That probably sounds obvious to most, but I had quite a shock moving from IL-2 FB to DCS: Black Shark.
Given that, I don't think anyone can say DCS: A-10 is any kind of competition to CloD (apples and oranges), but for a complete simulation of a modern aircraft, you can't do better than ED's warthog!
