Yeah already have BoB II - must dust that off, but I found it a very frustrating experience. It is amazing what the community have done to it but I come away feeling very frustrated each time. Maybe the trackir will help.

Not really daunted by the avionics of A-10; I have DCS-BS and quite enjoyed figuring out the somewhat wacky avionics and hmi, I assume it is a fair bit easier to grasp in the A-10 with it's western design. Think I'd quite enjoy just flying circuits in it and leave the blowing up stuff to the eventual arrival of CoD.

Just p***Ed off really, flown IL2 since 2001 (sp mainly) and never looked back, followed the ups and downs of this project since it was announced and even booked a day off work on the 25th. Just wish they would tell us wtf is going on one way or another so we can replan.

Gah. I'm starting to sound like Tree

Yes! you are... LOL

It won't be long now, divert yourself abit. You'll be doing the COD in no time.

I don't think you are anymore anxious than most members on this forums.

It's like an 8 year old waiting for the Santa Claus, huh?

Your passions enjoy good company here for sure.

The updates from Oleg are good, but it appears that most of us are dulled from seeing the stuff we don't have. LOL

How bout just waiting till release day and see what happens! A-10 is cool as $hit! Detailed Too. But for all the steam whinners, I think A-10 will be on steam soon. Black Shark did the same thing.

I think you will find Track ir will give you much better sense of being there.
Dust it off [BoB11 ] and give it a go.
Ask on the shockwave /a2a forums if you need any help.
Don't forget to tick the box in the menu allowing the use of Track ir.The 6 dof is very good.

Yeah thanks will do; unfortunately (unlike the x-52!) I accidentally mailed the TrackIR to my home address instead of work...may have some explaining to do to mrs siko when she asks 'wtf is this'!

Just downloaded a load of A-10 manuals into IBooks and will have a read tonight to make my mind up, think I will go ahead anyway.

No problem, enjoy other sims, we should be "drowning in information" soon enough. You don't have to make a decision now, the guys that preordered won't get the game any sooner. There will be plenty of time to figure out if COD is what you want in a sim.

Just no interest for fictional campaigns, even if the sim is top.

I'm kinda the same, if it's not WWII then it's not really for me.

Having said that if the next DCS project is one of the more, er.. glamourous Jets, then I could be tempted. If they ever do a Phantom however I'll be right there!
