Let the pugnacious fanboys and fangirls rage.

Updated: I'm even more satisfied that I've given DCS a negative review after their recent update that they posted for their Zionist screenshot contest.

Updated again: I'm further satisfied with the negative review because of the recent trash performance I've experienced with DCS (using the MT Preview). I didn't think it was my PC all of a sudden? Maybe it'll change after the next update, maybe not. I really hope so.

If it improves after the next update, I'll still be satisfied with the negative review but it'd just make me wish there was a neutral option slightly more which I would consider, maybe. That's about it though.

They can all very easily abandon everyone and leave everyone in the dark later on. There's nothing stopping that from possibly happening, face it. But, please, by all means, even if you aren't that interested in it or something, by all means go ahead and help fund their boutique aircraft collection in England.

*I feel foolish enough for what I've already given you people, which to you would seem like a piss in the ocean.*

BOYCOTT DCS PRODUCTS until they pay RAZBAM (and subsequently any former employees) what they are owed. Eagle Dynamics is an unethical company. Take a stand more than I likely will, and please boycott all Eagle Dynamics products.

Some individuals will view this as being hypocritical, as I continue to play it and even possibly purchase more of their content later, that's fine. I fully accept that (that doesn't mean I entirely agree necessarily, as it's just another way to distract away from the topic). I'm too corrupted and attached to it to not boycott it myself, not like I can afford much anyway, and not like they probably care much about my business. But they care about all of yours, collectively!

This review will get swept beneath the rug because I posted a quick, non-helpful (recommended/positive) review many years ago, and due to how reviews work it won't appear anywhere near the top for anyone. That's fine, I still wanted to let my feelings be known. I don't like it when folks are swindled and those doing the swindling have such an arrogant air about them.

To be fair I guess, let's move onto some other things.

The free TF-51 (unarmed P-51D) is very nice, as good as the other WW2 planes (not aesthetically), just unarmed. I hadn't flown it much (or the other ones) but I think with the very little time I had, it seemed easy for a WW2 fighter. I'm not really into those yet though.

The free Su-25T isn't anything to write home about, and that variant is heavier, less agile and more obscure. They really ought to add in the full fidelity Su-25, along with the full fidelity Su-24, Su-22, etc.

They say the best free mod aircraft in the simulator is the A-4 mod. You can find more info about it here.[github.com]

And here[forum.dcs.world]is a free mod helicopter that looks interesting (OH-6).

At the time of writing, I hadn't done much in this really, I haven't "mastered" anything whatsoever (probably not even 40% or 50% at anything, including less complex stuff, trying to consider everything). I've sort of just been "sampling" a bunch of different aircraft except for a couple, none of which I've even done much in anyway. I don't think I'm very good at this.

Some aircraft that'd be interesting to see added in later, aside from the Su-25 & Su-24 I mentioned, could include Ka-26, Ka-226, Ka-27/28/29/etc, Mi-28, and Yak-130 just to name a few.

Also, since you're adding in the stupid C-130, why not add in one of those mid-sized Antonov turboprop planes or something along those lines. At least some of them won't be as much of a waste of range/performance given the (relatively) limited size of DCS terrains/maps. I'd prefer that over poor performance or even higher system demands however, not grumbling about the sizes of the terrains/maps (except the Nevada terrain which could use an update/expansion, as long as you don't remove "Tromb" tower that I like to fire rockets at).

Because of some stupid Russian laws that make no sense, and because some of their staff are in Russia still, there are limitations to what Russian aircraft they will be able to add into DCS. They should solve that problem by moving all of their people out of Russia who are located there.

Some interesting WW2 planes they could add: Il-2 Sturmovik, Macchi C.202, Fiat G.55, A6M Zero, P-40, etc. I don't know how popular all of these would be but WW2 stuff is less popular in this anyway. I'm guessing the Italian ones would be impossible.

The terrains should be cheaper. I don't think the aircraft are a ripoff, but the terrains are. Speaking of which, an early 1950s Korea map with some new assets (that they'd charge extra for?) would make sense. It's not a region of the Middle East though, so probably not.

It'd be useful if they added the ability to use the F13 to F-whatever buttons also, like someone on their forums suggested: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/341538-keyboard-f13-to-f24-keys/

Lastly, let me just say that the biased environment of the Eagle Dynamics/DCS forums (or their Facebook account etc.) is not really a reliable source of info concerning the specific issue of the legal dispute concerning *Eagle Dynamics*.

However, I suggest that everyone boycotts Eagle Dynamics for other reasons as well. I don't want to go down that rabbit hole any deeper here. Not that there's much to it really, but enough to make me particularly dislike them overall.

Here's an example of the type of self-pitying, elitist attitude that we're dealing with:

Hey, you want the forums? Straight from the horse's mouth. ^

"Note there are some NSFW words in the article"...... wow. Give us a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ break. You poor, poor, *abused* people.

Ridiculous!

Also, I wonder if some of these Steam accounts are actually just alt troll accounts of the developers or maybe it's NineLine's or Wagner's wife or something. Wow.
