yeah? That break where the viper tears through the valley as the guitar riff opens up certainly got me a raging hardon for some flying. Still, I liked the one with the ‘zombie’ cover better:

Get your il2 on bitches! If you are on vr and don’t own flying Circus you are an almost irredeemable dumbass. Now’s your chance. Redeem yourself. Repent your ignorant ways! Join us, who twirl and swirl on wings of wood and canvas in halls of cloud and air.

I don’t recall seeing this here:
Coming August 6th and…$70, ouch. That’s gonna keep me away for now, but I’ll get it eventually for sure.
Note that this is not part of BoX series, it is an expansion for Cliffs of Dover: Blitz.
That means no VR, but different, arguably better modelling of flight, gunnery and damage.

Oh, man. My great uncle flew Wellingtons for the RCAF in North Africa; I’d love to play a campaign there. But without VR…
They have VR on their to do list but it isnt in yet…
Gah, so DCS just sent out an email talking:
- Dynamic Campaigns
- Eurofighter
As I love EF2000 so very much, I might finally have to buy into this mess of a thing.
Also mentuoning the P-47, one of my favorite WWII planes, isn’t helping.

Very general non-update update regarding the DCS dynamic campaign in an email today:
The DCS World Dynamic Campaign Engine combines a Real-Time Strategy (RTS) engine with military forces and economics layers (production, logistics, use and transfer of resources) that pitch two opposing sides aided by advanced strategic and tactical AI.
We have now completed the core RTS logic and have connected it to DCS World. We are currently finalising the basics of the in-game economic models. We will be working on the combat tasking logic and certain win-win situations in the near future. The last stage will be the Client - Server architecture needed to support large campaigns with on-going online sessions.
We are certain that you will have many detailed questions and look forward to revealing more information on this module as and when we are in position to demonstrate some of the features live.
Makes me curious whether you’ll be able to play it like a CMO or Modern Air Power scenario or something. I’d be into that for sure, not even flying just ordering the planes around
As messes go, it’s a good one to get into.
(Assumes foetal position and awaits @scharmers arrival…)
Any new feature from DCS.
- how much will it cost
- and how long will be be in “open beta”
- and how long will support be focused on it until something shinier (read: new shiny to bring whales in) comes along
We’ll see.
And ED still needs to fix bot AI so that computer planes fly like aircraft and not UFOs
You never disappoint, sir.

Are they able to ignore the flight model of the aircraft they’re flying?
Just a reminder, if you enjoy Big Jugs, they’re in Il-2:BoX.
I like big Jugs and I cannot lie…
They use a simplified version, which may or may not reflect what a human is capable of doing, depending on the aircraft.

Damn, that sucks. I didn’t know that.
That’s right, lean on the tired old “sex sells” trope. I expected more from you sir! I expected compelling stories crafted around things of substance, like razor sharp flight models, skynet smart dynamic campaigns etc all tuned to lure Brian in. But no, all it took was “big jugs”.
And now we all know Brian likes big jugs…
I read this one a while back, great read:
