You're spamming in the topic I was reading and posting in.

The world doesn't revolve around you.

Sig line.

Perhaps.  I think sooner. 

Competition is good.  A little sweat on a companies brow as they look over their shoulder at a competitor gaining on them gets the best performance out of everyone.

I think they are watching Combat Pilot with some concern and that will motivate them to not leave the Pacific niche wide open.

I'm expecting the Corsair\Essex is this year.

I tell you what.  I'll make you a wager. 

If the DCS Corsair releases this year, you purchase it as a gift for me.
If it doesn't come out until 2044,  I'll purchase it as a gift for you.

;)

Nope! ;)

Anyway, I get a quesy feeling regarding Magnitude 3.  Something ain't right... The Eagle STILL feels like a Mod.  in 2019 they were "hard at work" on the F8.  Then last year for an update they posted pix of the "pilot model" and I think a torn up one at a museum that "will be great for damage modeling".  Now it's totally on the back burner, while they decideded to overhaul the Mig-21 while working on the F4?  They seem to be good at... or forced to, find stuff to talk about without actually doing anything noteworthy.  I ain't being all bad omen here, but I am.  If not for the Hawk debacle... I wouldn't think much of it.  But because of the Hawk debacle, I know that ED can be ridiculously difficult to work with as a 3rd Party dev.

So, if the F4 pops up, friggin Hooray! I want that one more than anything else on the horizon.  But, If not, I won't be entirely surprised.

That is probably the best point of view.  I mean we have both seen how DCS projects can get delayed.  Cough*Kiowa*Cough.

That is the difference between rational flightsim fans and zealot, irrational fanbois.

DCS is a boring pile of junk. You know it too. I’d like to know who is giving you what to fo this childish  crap. You have dome serious OCD issues. OR you’re getting sonething out of it by one of two parties. The game is a bucket of bugs and sll 5 of you are lying your butts off to dkim players. Pathedic children

Their programming has turned into subpar swiss cheese. They have 100 times more bugs that aircraft.

I downloaded it. Haven't had time to play.

I'm doing spring yard prep and replacing 5 faucets at the moment. 

I also have a AH vs IL2 1946 review I'm trying to finish.  I'm withholding DCS pleasure until I get caught up on stuff.

I did get my VBK WWII throttle and it is burning a hole on my desk. ;)
