It looks like this is the case thus far.

Maybe with some maps, object and more a/c development it could be a very nice WW2 sim.

I'm just wary of the per a/c price (40USD) is a bit steep.
At 20 USD I'd say it'll be more popular

Several of the guys on our forum are very into the DCS thing, and are constantly promoting it and ripping on the failure of CloD, and the antiquity of IL2/46.

For years now they keep saying that more content is coming and that the P51 beta will soon be a full fledged WW2 sim.

Right.

And I'm the Queen Mother.

DCS advances at a glacial pace, as civilian simulators are not their primary focus. They will need a minimum of 2 more years to have a WW2 sim that could even come close to the content choices that IL2 had on release ten plus yeas ago...

Anyway, went ahead and bought a P51. I'll fly this until the FW190 come out, then I'll switch quickly

Mannnn!! the P51 is soooo loose in DCS.. punch the throttle (engine response is 'immediate') and it climbs an imaginary left hand bank (roll right)... literally does a barrel roll on the ground - THE WAY IT IS SUPPOSED TO DO according to the vets.


TD if you can get this right for all a/c...

so true DCS-51D is something to master, I always use 50% throttle on runway (but I'm a sissy too )
Fw-190 will be interesting but if God loves us we'll have a P-40 after that one (I'm sure I've seen one in FC stable, actually I think they have two).
