Dont know if anyone has told you Anvilfolk me ol m8 but ww2 fighters didnt have
a Westernhouse radar, Texas instruments, navigation and weapon systems to play around with

I think you had a map, a note pad and a photo of your sweetheart back then

As for the part in bold letters? Not so much i think.


The only place where you'll find aircraft systems modeling and their inter-connected nature simulated to an extent similar to or even higher than that of CoD, is certain FSX add-on aircraft by specific publishers (A2A for older aircraft, PMDG for modern airliners and a few other companies).


DCS A-10 is about a jet and it's more complicated by nature, so it might be a similar in that regard (can't judge it because i haven't tried it). Other than that, it's either CoD or FSX plus 3rd party payware add-ons that cost a minimum of $30-$40 per aircraft if you want to experience how the stuff that makes an aircraft fly really works.

In other words, there's no other combat sim with propeller driven aircraft that tracks anywhere between 200-400 parameters and damageable components for the player's aircraft, only a modern jet sim and specific add-ons for a civilian sim.

Hi..

That is exactly what i mean Blackdog.

I have been playing a lot of FSX "PMDG 747-400", but it has never punished my for making any wrong choices" other that forgetting landing gear and other obvious things"

Anyone can take control of any aircraft in fsx, take off and fly for hours. Landing could be a problem, but he would properly manage that as well, without ILS of course

I have never tried IL2 1946, RoF or DCS A-10.

The complexity and engine management is what i love the most about CoD, so that "is for me" a very important factor.

Just to clearify, Im not looking for a alternativ. I´m just trying to set things in perspective

I am sorry if any of you feel that i have wasted your time by not beeing clear enough, when i created this post.

I suggest you try the original 1946 with Ultrapack3 installed wich gives you loads and loads more content and updates..the cost is very cheap for it too

RoF if you like the ww1 era and again its a free download which allows you to play online or offline with 2 aircraft i believe...if you want more aircraft and mods you can pay for them as downloadable content (DLC)
