Combat Air Patrol 2

[SirAndrewD]

I'm in.  You had me at Dynamic Campaign.  I'm going to throw my money at any half way decent sim that resurrects this seemingly long dead idea.

I'm cautiously optimistic.  Frankly this sounds too good to be true.  Expectation management is going to be key.

I do hope for success, though.  It would be nice to light a fire under some of these other developers that have gotten lazy being the only (modern) sim alternative out there.

Who on earth could you be talking about?

I am totally and utterly bemused by DCS. I have absolutely no idea where they are going, why things are going slow and even where they are at. Quite honestly - because things are so slow and because there's so little - all I'm seeing is a DLC cash cow. I certainly wouldn't feel that way if they worked on a few "dynamic" campaigns for their games - but seeing how the releases are going all I'm seeing is additional aircraft - and even then some of them are total and utter BS (from my perspective at least).

So I for one hope this is going to bring something new to the table. Please, please get this right. Make sure it's "a game" first and foremost - and that means enjoyable.

I feel the same way.  This is why I own no DCS games or modules. 

Modern simulation seems to have forgotten the "game" part of the equation.  There's certainly room for being in depth with realism and flight model, but for me, it that matters for nothing but a hill of beans without some context. 

That's why this could be an exciting title.  Great visuals, realism AND a campaign that isn't canned.  I mean, just take my money now.   I'm not even really enthused with the Harrier, but heck, right now I'd take just about anything.

This may sound odd, but that brought a large smile to my doughy white face.  With pink nipples underneath.

Not odd at all. Weird and creepy, but not odd.

It looks pretty good. O0 But I SUCK at flight sims! :-[ :(
