DCS World

1:

Is there anyone here besides me who regularly plays any of the series? I'm still working on mastering at least one aircraft before I try and take it online (or I need to find a clan who's willing to let me fly on a training sortie with them). I can reliably fly the A-10C, but using any of the weapons is a very slow process still. The P-51D is fun and simple to manage versus the A-10's systems, but getting it off the ground takes a bit of practice, and landing without ILS and with the tail wheel requires some finesse. I still have yet to fly the SU-25, and I didn't get very far on the KA-50.

 

2:

Has anyone else upgraded to DCS World from the standalone A-10C or Blackshark 1/2? I just did a few days ago, and it's nice to have everything centralized. I also ended up splurging for the P-51D and Combined Arms while I was at it. I still need to install Blackshark 1 and buy the upgrade to BS2 before I can play with that.

 

Saying that, DCS:W is a bit of an unfinished product (and has products on it that are also unfinished) and thus is prone to a few bugs. I had a graphical/sound glitch where my graphics drivers would restart every five minutes until I turned off MSSAA. Plus, (though it has a work-around) the voice files for the tutorials are missing to you have to pay attention to the text while still paying attention to the plane.

Now that there's more than just Blackshark 1/2 out, is the title of this sub-forum going to be changed to cover all of the DCS series instead of just the one game?

Well, I downloaded DCS:W, but I didn t installed it yet.

 

I have a major concern with this series. I do love flight Sims BUT I do not like the aircraft they decided to model.

 

I do not like the A10

I do not like the SU25

I do not like the KA50

 

I was flying Flaming Cliffs2 and I am on F15 usually. I do not like the russian birds.

 

Unfortunately they have no plan to implement any Air Superiority aircraft, they didnt patch FC2 to get compatible with DCS:W, therefore I have to stay out of this.

 

Too bad..
