DCS World reviews and comments

At first I thought DCS was easy for viiieeel too expensive ... After about 30 Hours in the Game now, I have to say: Madness! Only for this is the Purchase of a VR system and a reasonable ROMULAS has already paid off! A lot of the Fun here is understanding and mastering the Aircraft in the first place. Dogfights and Opponents are puffing from the Sky ... That doesn't come until later. New Entrants should know that there is a good and understandable reason for the low price Differences for the Aircraft: Cheap: Not clickable. -Means: All Buttons and Switches are operated with Shortcuts on the Keyboard. Costly: Every Switch in the Cockpit is operable (by Mouse, VR Controller ...) Plus, every Plane is a bit of a Game for itself to look at ... Because you don't even saddle up from an F/A-18C Hornet to the A-10C ... They are completely different Planes. So you will be able to be busy with one or two Airmen even in the long term.

If you like complex (military) Flight Simulations, you will get your Money's worth here. However, Mann must be willing to invest VIEL Time to learn the Basics and the respective Module. For the quick Round Action in between, it is probably not suitable, although it includes a "Game mode," which simplifies the flight physics aviation and Is intended for Beginners or Gamers. Personally, however, I am not really interested in this, which is why I cannot give an Assessment on this. The free Basic Version includes two Aircraft (including a Ground Attack aircraft) and a Map (Caucasus) and acts as a demo version, so to speak. You can already deal with this one Module for a long time. A Mission Editor to Create your own Missions is in place, and free and paid campaign/Missions can be added. The other (paid) Aircraft/Map modules are regularly relatively expensive, but also offer a lot of Content. So everyone Has to decide for themselves whether they buy them at full Price, or (like me) prefer to wait for a Sale. In my opinion, the mandatory Condition is definitely suitable Hardware. A Mid-size Joystick (or rather cione) and, if possible, Headtracking/VR should be available to really Have fun. Graphics, of course, are not comparable to AAA action titles, but I find them very coherent and generally successful (especially the Lighting). Multiplayer mode is also available. However, since I am still in "Training," I have not yet dared to test it. Finally, I can only recommend to any simulation fan to take a look at the free basic version. From me there's definitely a Thumbs up!
