Stunning. What other planes has it got?
The free core of the game has an Su-25 plus missions / a campaign I believe. However the Su-25 is ported from Flaming Cliffs 2 which means the cockpit isn't clickable and everything has to be done through hotkeys plus the flight model isn't their advanced model. Then you can buy their packs which is the main meat of the game and they are all super high fidelity study-sim quality - They include:
- A-10C
- Ka-50
- P-51
Ground combat:
- Combined Arms ( Take control of everything on the ground basically, some in 'first person' )
Upcoming stuff:
- UH-1H Huey ( Just announced )
- Flaming Cliffs 3 ( Includes lower-fidelity F-15C, A-10A, Su-27, Su-33, MiG-29A, MiG-29S, - Su-25/T - It's already in Beta and slated for release soon )
- They registered an F/A-18 site
THEN they have made a ton of partnership deals with larger virtual plane makers, who makes planes for FSX etc. which means they are high fidelity, i.e fully clickable cockpits and realistic physics;
MiG-21Bis Fishbed
RAZBAM's F-15E
RAZBAM Harrier AV8B
VAEO is making a BAE Hawk T.1A trainer and the Eurofighter typhoon
RAZBAM is also making a T-2 Buckeye
and the list keeps going and going. DCS World is basically what the name implies, a big world they will keep building on and make a massive combat simulator.
But every single pack is going to cost a pretty penny, something like $30-40 a pop. The wonders of simulation.
However I still recommend Falcon 4.0 BMS if you really want to get into study sims
Yeah, Sethos, your Falcon 4.0 and DCS shots have been stunning. You got any more?
Appreciate it. I'll get some more from my upcoming training sessions.
