And that is where the problem is.... the potential is there. EVERYONE could see it. The focus and the drive to capitalize on it is massively lacking.

SOON (tm) (F-18C, F-15E)

"Soon" doesn't count at all. Is it here yet? No? Then the answer to ricnune's question is still a "NO."

YES. But the have to made by humans smile

Which involves *A LOT* of effort and with very low (if any) replayability. Very small in scope as well.

Has anyone tried to make a fast-mission, take an F-15, and see how far you can go before you "leave" the theatre?

Again, DCS is an airframe simulator. DCS is better than BMS in terms of graphics (and VR) and in the sense that each aircraft is it's own aircraft (as opposed to a modded F-16), but that's about it. As a whole, if you are looking for a combat flight simulator, BMS does a lot of things better than DCS. If you are looking for FSX where you fly different aircraft and you can shoot missiles at different aircraft, then DCS has the airframe variety.

I don't think ricnunes was saying BMS exceeds any other sim, just that it exceeds DCS and therefore, DCS does not exceed other sims as Contempt was trying to point out.
