Darn, wife got me watching that. I was so turned on, You should have seen the disgusted look on her face.

Hah, that's not even the worst thing she caught me doing...

Still, not sure she will agree...
If anyone want to gift me something for the past Birthday... You know, no one ever posted me a happy birthday post...
That would be a perfect apology!

CA looks great. I like the idea of switching from command mode to first person on the fly.

Frankly it looks like Steel Beasts with the air component added.The graphics, models etc are a bit dated but the gameplay doesn't look bad at all.

Hmm. It might be interesting to roll in with S-5 rockets or an X-66 missile from the MiG-21 while someone on the ground is throwing smoke to mark the CAS target for me....this might get me into a multiplayer game after all.

DCS: Combined Arms gives the user control of ground forces during the battle. Use the strategic map to move ground forces, set artillery fire missions, and control the ground battle. Assume the role of a Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) and designate targets for close air support aircraft, or directly control an armor vehicles or air defense weapons and engage enemy forces.

Play DCS: Combined Arms as a real time strategy game, a first person armor warfare simulation, or direct the ground battle from the cockpit of a DCS aircraft like the A-10C Warthog, Ka-50 Black Shark, or P-51D Mustang.

DCS: Combined Arms supports both single player and multiplayer gameplay. When in multiplayer, different players can take on different roles such as artillery commanders, tank commanders, pilots, JTACS, etc. DCS: Combined Arms allows you full control of the battle. All roles can be changed dynamically during the battle.

Features of the DCS: Combined Arms:

• Move ground forces and direct their fire during a mission.
• Be the Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) and direct close air support.
• Jump into the seat of many armor and air defense units to engage enemy air and ground forces.
• Play in both single player and multiplayer games.
• Both small and large scale battle missions included.
• Part of DCS World

I will keep an eye on your threads for the preorder.

The screenies look to have a lot of BLOOM/HDR in the visuals. I hope that can be turned off in the game.
