Pandacat Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Wow what a sensation! :thumbup: Feels like real flying. The only thing that keeps drawing me back to Il2 is there is plenty to shoot at. Whereas in DCS, I am just a lonely pony, occasionally picking on D9 dummies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsumikae Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 First, welcome! In not so long, there should be plenty of stuff and real people to shoot at in your machine ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anatoli-Kagari9 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Yes, I am really looking forward for additional ww2 aircraft, but also Korea... I can't learn how to fly the modern fighters - too old to learn :-/ Meanwhile, trying to master the p51d in aerobatics or 1vs1 against an AI Fw-190.

javelina1 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I love DCS too, top notch sim. Though I do fly the IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad. Especially the Kanonenvogel.

Buckeye Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Welcome, sir! I also just got the P-51D (previously I had been flying the F-15C), so I've only had a few days experience with it, but it is an absolute blast to fly so far. I echo doom's thoughts above -- I've heard great things about their Dogs of War server for WW2 aircraft, its where I plan to fly when I take the P51 online for some fun. Check it out.

9.JG27 DavidRed Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 yeah, we do plenty of good stuff on our server, and although there is no flyable oponent yet for the p51 we already enjoy the pony in combat environment.also p51vsp51 is fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anatoli-Kagari9 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 jcomm: I get the whole WWII thing. And I never thought I would have the time to learn modern AC. But I purchased the A-10C and use it pretty regularly. Honestly.....it's not as fun to me as the P-51 but I do still like it. And it is a little overwhelming to try and learn at first. I also like the Huey. I learned it pretty quickly. But I'm practically peeing my pants waiting for the F-86. Yep, and I actually bought it right after the Ka-50. I used it for a while like if it was an executive jet :-) Performed some ILS approaches, x-wind landings, tested the flight dynamics, the turbine engine modelling and thought to myself - at last a realistic simulator! :-) Flight Simulation is the Virtual Materialization of a Dream...

Mnemonic Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 IL-2 Battle Of Stalingrad, developed by 777 team is very good in terms of flight model as well... Same AFM developer as Su-25/ Su-25T, Rise of Flight... just saying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same AFM developer as Su-25/ Su-25T, Rise of Flight... just saying... I couldn't agree more. It's in IL2 BOS I spend the most part of my simmer time lately. Also made me buy Rise of Flight :-) This being said, I find DCS's p51d and both the UH-1H and Mi-8 models simply the best I ever found in any PC-based flight simulator!

Pandacat Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 I just had my first landing in pony last nite. I got it on the first try, albeit bumpy. I saw pre-purchase for D9 is up. Soon there will be a lot of stall mates for pony to play with. :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team NineLine Posted June 26, 2014 ED Team Share Posted June 26, 2014 IL-2 Battle Of Stalingrad, developed by 777 team is very good in terms of flight model as well... Same AFM developer as Su-25/ Su-25T, Rise of Flight... just saying... Technically not quite the same AFM,,, its evolved a lot since the person involved had left. Regardless, this isnt the place to compare the 2, we should talk DCS here, and IL2 there.

Der_Fred Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Nope... I think this, or a comparison thread, is as good as any. DCS has a flight model, improved on IL2 no doubt, but a lot can be learn't from the IL2 series wrt to prop aircraft. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuri77 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I like both games, my main interest in DCS lies with contemporary aircraft, at least until there are designated theatres for Vietnam/Korea/WW2 etc. I did buy P-51 and will continue to purchase everything that gets made for DCS but i rarely fly it.

Der_Fred Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 No problem... But if you think of it... having a constructive DCS-vs-IL2 thread would convert many others... But the way this seems to be handled, as with many other types of 'SIMS' is more destructive... and smacks of Pongo type sims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ( and a gazillion others) buy their products... listen to us and maybe you make a bit more money... I believe he meant that the developers of other sim/games take issue with their products being discussed here. There was an incident where I posted, on this forum, a critique of a different flight sim-game by another developer, and one of the developers of that other sim-game saw it and was upset by it. That sort of thing is why Eagle Dynamics' forum moderators discourage other flight sim-games being discussed here. It has nothing to do with Eagle Dynamics having a thin skin -- to the contrary, they seem quite open to having their own sim discussed, with its strengths & weaknesses.

SAM77 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) After BS1 came out IL2 lost all appeal. It was the only title I played for a very long time. I miss the pacific theatre the most but I just can't go back especially with the Dora just around the corner. Dreaming of a DCS:WWII with loads of aircraft at FC3 level mixed with proper DCS. Oh yeah btw we neeedd more Kaboom!!!! Bigger explosions.
