The LockOn engine, like IL-2, was way ahead of its time and is just now starting to show it age..

You can allways pick 'one' aspect of a sim to make it look good or bad realitive to another.. To do an honest comp one would have to tally up all the features vs features.. But since we are talking about the ground modeling, I think the current DCS stuff falls somewere inbetween IL-2 and CoD.

go have a look. there's some new pix up of B-17s and FW-190 Ai being developed.

The more the sim and modding community support it the quicker the WWII/korean senarios will develop.

this a mod for CloD? how can you make a statement like that and not post a link??

all im waiting for is my trusty ol P40

link please!!

Yep gettin this as soon as I get home ( 2 days!) from what I've seen it looks fantastic, great modeling, sounds, cockpit, well worth the small cash investment, With the new US strike fighter that'll be next and the excellent MIG-21Bis nearing completion DCS is going to become an amazing sim platform.

It's very disappointing to see so many people ready to dismiss it out of hand instantly, I can understand that full fidelity sims is not everyone's cup of tea, but with such great reasoning as "No 109=uninterested " wonder the sim industry is on the down turn.

The entire project is struggling right now. This is why they want the uninformed to give them money for an unfinished product. We all know what happens when you do that. The next trick is to remove the word beta and continue to sell in a desperate attempt to save it.

To clarify: you want to imply Eagle Dynamics is in financial trouble? Have you got any insight to that? Would be a shame, 'though.
