I was thinking about this the other day. DCSW has aircraft from WWII, Korea and up to modern day.

Exactly what historic scenario can you create with all these toys in the sandbox that has accurate terrain, ground units, naval and air?

I came up with zero. You can't do WWII, Korea, Falklands, Desert Storm, Iraqi Freedom...zip. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

I found this post interesting. It was made by someone defending ED about the sim being boring:

Quote:


Missions are user created, use your wealth of info on how to make the perfect mission and go make one, then host it or give it to someone.

A lot of the best mission makers have been put off by patches breaking stuff.


So you may be right about users not knowing how to make good missions...but apparently some of the guys that do know how to make realistic missions aren't doing it anymore.
