Should 1c finally be concerned about competition? Eagle Dynamics "Flying Legends".

yep. support DCS. vote with your wallet.

AS it stands at this very moment, no I wouldnt jump ship. But if it comes with playable opponents and a promise of more A/C down the line then yes I would be tempted seriously.

CloD, is great and will be greater in the near future (COME ON PATCH!!!!!!!!) so for now 1C has a solid customer in me, but being American and brought up in a Free market.... To the winner go the spoils. if DCS shows me a reason I should pick them up, Ill do it.

Why no room for both games on your hard drives? I've got Balck Shark, IL2, X Plane 9 and RoF on my PC.

The topic sounds more like a threat than an actual look at something interesting and fun for our hobby.

If you're honestly that dismayed at what's going on at 1C and the condition of the game, then why stick around and make hollow threats? Makes no sense to me.

[Hooves]

Was that at me? i am not dismayed with 1C like CloD. But if something better comes out why would I not switch? Are you not familiar with free market capitalism? lol

Its not an issue of space on the hard drive, more like space in my schedule.

[Robert]

No. Just in general. I was pondering aloud and not directing at anyone in particular, hooves.

With DCS's glacial pace of adding new content, I'd say Maddox games should start to be worried, oh in about 2035.

Good post, it's a very real possibility. It's true, you really wouldn't have to try that hard to be honest. Take Birds of Prey, give it a makeover with simulation flight and damage models and everyone will be jumping ship. The community has been treated to a rort and only those who are blindly in love with their captors will cling on.

if it will be as detailed and realistically modeled as A10, then i will certainly buy it.
and if they are clever, and model at least one oponent for it, 1c will have a hard time to keep me personally as a customer.
dont get me wrong...i really like clod, but its lacking in so many ways, and even its strengths like CEM are only half baked.
and especially in this aspect, i expect the mustang to be much more accurate than what we have in clod now.and thats what i want, i want it to get as realistical as possible.
i would prefer 2 realistic modeled planes , over 20 half realistical ones...

You must be stupid, honestly if it were that simple then do you not think they would have just done that in the first place - or did Oleg and Co just decide it would be fun to crash the business on takeoff?

They should definitely be concerned about competition. As every company should be.

I have stopped flying CloD as it has nothing to offer for me right now, instead I fly DCS-A10C and Rise Of Flight. I would not have started to fly these sims, if CloD had been in a better state than it was (and is) after the last patch.

As long as the game play problems are not solved, I'll not fly it again. If DCS-P51D comes out before AI, FM, DM and radio are fixed in CloD, I fear I'll not return to the MG series for quite some time.
