Very interested in this, but unsure about the payment company they use Protx, I'm a little bit apprehensive proving my card details to someon I know nothing about?

Anyone got any information on these?

I've used them before to purchase Lock On a year or two ago. Nothing dodgy on my credit card since then so I guess they are ok You'll have to google for more...

Trackir moving you head about in the cockpit is really good

very true the pre start up alone is 2 A4 sheets worth of switches to click on..............thats if you run the sim realistic.

 

[Nieldo]

No way, totally unexpected. I thought I wouldnt be playing until next year.

Edit: Downloading both files now about 700kb/s

Any chance of a screenshot after everyone turns on the rotors? I would like to see how the game engine handles all those 'coptors being parked so close

Just read this interview on SimHQ

Q: Isn't the team on a fast track development cycle? What is your turnaround time from title-to-title?

A: Right now most of the team has transitioned to DCS: A-10C Warthog and development is already moving along at a very good clip. Because many of the DCS building blocks were already created for Black Shark, the development time for Warthog will be significantly less. From the time Black Shark goes into retail, we hope to have A-10C out nine months after that. Note that that is not a promise, just our current goal!

So we can expect DCS: A-10C in September 2009 .

so with this game, is it just like a flight sim, like fsx with missions? or a story? can you go online?

This is a full simulation, down to nearly every switch or button in the cockpit. It can be as realistic as you want or as arcade as you want, the options meny provides full scale between the two. It has I think 4 campaigns and a bunch of stand alone missions. There is a multiplayer coop mode.

If you know FS, think PMDG levels of detail.

 

[Hank_Marvin]

ooo sounds very good then, and coop rocks.

cheers fella
