just looking at the prices on steam v direct. Currently the latest modules , AH64 is £41 on steam, £56 direct, Mosquito £35 on steam, £48 direct and so forth for older modules, P47 on steam £29, direct £35, all the modules are about 20% cheaper on steam, so it seems ED are taking us for mugs for using the traditional route and buying directly off them. If I were starting today, I'd go the steam route.

To be honest, as DCS WW2 will primarily be used as an air-to-air combat simulator, I couldn't really give a donkeys if they simulated flying over that Atlantic ocean. A beautiful rendition of the ground is nice, but is window dressing. What I want are a good selection of well modeled aircraft and decent AI in the opposing aircaft. .

When the prospect of the kickstarter was raised, i thought long and hard. Those that didn't thought they were buying a game, done deal. Those that did realised it was a gamble, if it paid off we were quids in, if not, we lost money. So you risked you could afford to lose.So, I won't receive the aircraft I hoped for, but hey-hum, life is a disappointment, and I'll get some beautifully modeled aircraft that I woudl have spent plenty of money on anyways. I'll still buy them, as I want t support this genre, I can remember the early days of computer games on my Amiga A500 where everybody produced aircraft simualtors, now we have to cherirsh those that are left. What really broke my heart , was the funds weren't reached for the mossie, the De-Haviland DH98 Mosquito, the Wooden Wonder. Forget the ME262, the DO190, the P47, this was the quite possibly the greatest all round military aircraft ever built, it caused Goering to say to the German aircarft developers " It makes me furious when I see the Mosquito. I turn green and yellow with envy . The British ...they have geniuses, we have nincompoops, After the war is over I'm going to buy a British radio set - then at least I'll own something that has always worked". I would have paid time and again for the mossie, but hey hum , if it keeps ED in the game, I live in hope

I've got win 7 pro 64 bit. But because trackIr won't yet work, run A10 in 32 bit mode. Rather annoying.
