104th_Maverick this trailer reminds me of one of those sad fucking endings from a ww2 movie. The music was spot on like damn I wanna cry

[@Soundwave857]

The video is awesome but im ashamed of the clickbait title. DSC doesnt need to go that low

[@GlowingAmraam]

Glad you are all enjoying the video, and thank you all for the nice feedback and comments! :)

Очень круто! Спасибо!

What's the music used?

[@GlowingAmraam]

Unleashed, by Two Steps from Hell.

[@Vlerkies]

Awesome that you are on the ED team. Well deserved and much appreciated by the consumers. S!

In case somebody asks: Music is titled "Unleashed" by Two Steps from Hell (feat. Merethe Soltvedt)

This is *the most* _EPIC_ video I have ever watched! The music, the scenery, graphics, action...beautiful! 12/10 video!

Outstanding video and great choice of music. Here's to 15 more years of good fortune and awesome projects!

[@EagleDynamicsTV]

Thanks for the great guides!

[@psyph3rscollection288]

This video almost brought a tear to my eye. I've been flying with Eagle Dynamics since Lock On: Modern Air Combat. The first sim to really get me up into the virtual air. Since then DCS has truly become a world of many wonderfully integrated simulations. Thank you Eagle Dynamics! You have brought us the best combat flight sim. Ever.

[@Amvienttz]

From Lock On to DCS! You guys have come such a long way!

[@moveaxebx]

su-27 flanker was the first. Vector graphics....I still have original box and CD with huge red star on it.

Absolutely astonishing. 2.5 is beautiful. Thank you.

[@virtualvultures1254]

It's like that scene in Jurassic Park when Dr. Grant first sees the dinosaurs, and while in awe, turns and whispers to John Hammond and says.... "how did you do this?"

[@jacobmielke211]

This is truly an example of how amazing this game has become, I got chills while watching combat footage. Keep up the amazing work.

[@NinjaSpecter]

This video really is something special, it moved me. The music choice, the production, the edition, the visuals, everything. Consider doing trailers for future DCS products with more videos like this in the future, grand music like this really does help make otherwise standard-looking simulator footage become inspiring and thrilling, and connect better with the viewer. It has worked wonders for Ace Combat (an entirely different genre, I know) for years and works amazingly for DCS.

[@wedge_one]

FYI 2.5 performs better than 1.5.8. I'm impressed AF. OUTSTANDING work, ED!

[@4secsharkmr352]

Well done! Up to the next 25 years. Remembering Flanker and now this. A dream come true. Thank you!

[@Zabuzard]

That is the best DCS trailer so far, great work!

[@nickgrey582]

Agreed!

[@lordxenon4712]

The most realistic flight simulator of all time? DCS World! I am 41 years old and I have played with all the flight simulators existing from 1990 to today. DCS World is fantastic! For me it's a dream come true after so many years! Thanks Eagle Dynamics. Only you could do such an ambitious project. I love you Eagle Dynamics

[@Kifter1983]

Great trailer! This video needs more public attention!

[@jojoflyfffan]

Thank you ED for reuniting the community and making the greatest flightsim of all time. I've been with you since Lomac and ill hope to still be here 20 years from now. Heres to many many many more great years of ED!❤

[@EagleDynamicsTV]

The unification of versions was of paramount importance.

[@JohnBart86]

I'm an absolute idiot to hardcore combat flight sims, but I still can't stop watching this video. Excellent work! And good hunting for all DCS pilots!

[@Wolfsrainhige]

Been playing this sim since April of 2015 and so proud to be a part of it. Absolutely amazing! Nice work ED keep it up!

[@Jason_N7]

Watched this again after a year... still breathtaking. Thanks Eagle Dynamics... for making OUR dreams come true.

[@1invag]

The game looks nothing like this even on ultra settings at 4k two years later haha.

[@SkyMaXX5]

I remember playing the Flanker 2.5 simulator. Years have passed and now DCS World 2.5 is the best simulator of the battlefield in the air and on the ground.

[@mhe0815]

This is hands down the best flight sim video I have ever seen made with the most impressive simulator I have ever seen. I am at a loss for words.

[@foxone41]

Thx men good work we stay almost 10 years without advances in combat aerial simulation till DCS appears, since that only joy and hapiness are my feelings I have no words for your skills in this rough industry with a few users compared with FPS and MMO games for example, continue like today, and You have my support GOOD WINDS!!!!

[@Nordaritan]

You can fly on the highest mountains to the lowest canyons you can pull 10G... to the past and beyond I love DCS

[@WiredrawnMurder45]

Been playing ED games since Flanker 2.0 and this video just proves how professional and dedicated the staff and developers are to their fans and playerbase since 1996. Rock on ED, you guys are without a doubt the best air combat simulator creators to date!

Seeing the F-16 makes me yearn for a F-16 module in DCS.

[@EagleDynamicsTV]

The Viper would certainly be a great addition to DCS World someday.

[@Real_Claudy_Focan]

and the F-117 !

[@paracelsus9510]

Eagle Dynamics: Digital Combat Simulator grippen please. Lockheed and skunk will never give you avionics fully. You'll have to fudge. Saab don't care. Same with BAE. Typhoon and gripen could happen. Hoop jump for next 30 years to get the skunk jets .

[@povmcdov]

I first played a flight sim on the ZX spectrum in about 1987. Mountains didn't display, you just died under the minimum altitude. The only ground features were lakes and the runways. I played the 16-bit classics like F-19, then onto F-22 and Falcon 3, 4.0 and the realism mods. I haven't played a proper flight sim for years, but what I just watched blew me away. The progress that has been made in 30 years. Wow, just wow. I'm going and buying a flightstick.

[@AmmoGuy83]

Amazing work AMRAAM!!!

[@GlowingAmraam]

Thanks!

[@ACOGforlife]

Thx for this. Im proud to be an DCS pilot to , like my previous speaker. Its the best game of our time and VR is extraordinary. Ive spent some bucks in the meatime, but none of them will be wasted

[@SteveSurgenor]

Stunning ! Stick some GA aircraft in it, and you have one SIM to rule them all, well done everyone involved, alot of people have waited most of their lives for this day, thank you.

[@bowser515]

Safety Steve if it's GA you desire, you're in luck. The first module is already in development, the Christen Eagle. I like fast and dangerous aircraft myself, but I'm more than happy to see more variety in DCS if it allows more people to get involved and enjoy this wonderful sim.

[@hernzo4301]

You got the yak 52 it’s there

[@bowser515]

The L-39 is already purchasable, I appreciate it's a military trainer primarily, but it's also incredibly common in private hands and can be flown as such in DCS.

[@timmy3822]

I'm hoping that we'll see some GA aircraft at some point, however I'd really love to see a good C-130 simulation in DCS or a mule-crew bomber.

[@bowser515]

A B1b would be awesomer-er. As for GA... General aviation. I:E civilian aircraft.

[@CAPDude44]

Picnic tables in backyards? Detailed towns? Amazing landscapes? I neeeed this game!

[@456c]

No words, absolutely astonished. What's next?

[@timmy3822]

It's insane to think how far flight simulators have come. I remember playing all the way back to Flanker 2.5 back in the day, then LO:MAC, LO:FC (1,2 & 3).... Black Shark, the A-10C and many modules since then. Very well done ED, you guys are really knocking it out the park, and with the F-18 it's only going to get better. Looks absolutely STUNNING. Those new ground impact effects make the ground pounder in me more than a little giddy :).

[@EagleDynamicsTV]

My first flight sim was MiG Ally Ace on the Mac; amazing how far the genre has advanced

[@timmy3822]

My very first flight sim, was an old DOS game called Sturmovik. You actually flew a Su-25, I was about 6 and didn't even know what to do but I enjoyed taking off and blowing up my own airbase lol.
