Default CoD alternative?

Hi.

I was just wondering.

Is there any other flight sim where so many things are simulated and modeled?

Rise Of Flight, ROF but it's about WW1.

Yes it's called IL2 1946 if you're into WWII avaition. If you want a very solid sim with many many things modeled look into DCS A10.

Yes, I play Rise of Flight a lot, but end up feeling it's more a game than a sim now that CoD is out. I occasionally bring out RoF for some "quick action" (although WW1 fighters are all but quick) It's a great game for training to use track IR (lots of insanely close combat - you'll smell when your enemy soils himself).

Otherwise DCS Blackshark / A10 are pretty realistic.

Another vote for DCS A-10.

1946 is great, and I still fly it mostly because my computer can't handle CoD and I really love the Pacific theatre. However, both CoD and the DCS series are some steps ahead of it.

One of the things about DCS A-10 is that there's always something to do. There are so, so many systems and options, and you're configuring stuff before combat, spooling up systems, looking for targets, setting up weapons profiles and waypoints/marks etc. That's one thing I really miss in 1946 these days, having something to do while on-route to target.

YES 1946 IL Sturmovik with Ultra Pack 2.0 or 3.0 is a very good alternative to COD. Or Battle of Britain II. Where my favorit is IL Sturmovik. Thats the best Sim ever. Best Modders, best clients etc..........

IL2 '46+UP3 and DBW.
Not an alternative, but really superior.

DCS Blackshark & DCS A10c are light years ahead of anything else right now. Make Clod look like an arcade game.

Rise of Flight is also excellent.
