DCS: ASCENDING

This showcase is designed to demonstrate the upcoming technology enhancements to fog, haze, dust and lighting in DCS. Enjoy!

Solid improvements. Here's to more core engine updates, fewer incomplete and rushed modules, and less 3rd party drama.

The way that fog lights up with the explosions. Gigiddy giggidy...

[DoradoFever]

The continued Herc teasers is cruel for such an anticipated module.

When someone is not a sim enthusiast and wonders how I could enjoy "playing" DCS at nearly 40, i just send them on DCS trailer like this...
Passion is sweating from each pixel.
Thank you ED for all the efforts you put into this wonderful sim.

More and more often, I feel like flying around looking at stunningly beautiful landscape.

[TrickerDCS]

FINALLY, a feature that makes me look like a stealth pilot… until I crash into the ground 🔥

[boxin]

Been here since the beginning w/ Black Shark 1 Beta. I am in awe of just how far DCS has come. Thanks ED!

Is it possible to make the ocean more realistic? I have purchased most of the modules, but the ocean simulation still doesn't feel realistic enough. 🙏

[laurin]

All that work only for a single dude with an AK sniping you through the fog

[MACE-]

So the cinematics are great...If DCS would finish modules like they did advertising commercials then we'd all be in a lot better spot right now...

[moiluck]

That new fog makes it look so real. I’m impressed, honestly. Good job.

I love how this game has evolved. It started out as trying to make it an IN-DEPTH combat flight sim. Now it's evolved into a REALISTIC combat flight simulator. You can experience the accomplishment of flying a complex mission and on the traditionally 'slow' parts of that mission get a taste of the beauty of flight real pilots experience. I'm finding myself more and more wanting to tell my MSFS buddies that this is actually a better overall flight simulator due to how realistic the weather and lighting is getting on top of the already incredible flight model. These videos make it that much easier to convince them. Keep it up!

Nice. We dont have wingman AI, ATC and dynamic campaign, but we have nice fog...

[peACE_ful_Viper]

Eagle Dynamics never fails to amaze! Incredible improvements and the video is absolutely phenomenal!
From Portugal: Thank you! Obrigado!

[forcedtoexist]

This. It is almost unbelieveable if you followed the project since lomac. For me - despite all the controversy - ED is THE best. Plz keep it like this.

[NoneNone-ptvs]

After decades of MSFS, I tried DCS... and quite simply was blown away. It's only improved since then and this looks like a further leap forward. Providing a platform completely free for users at the base level must tighten budgets significantly. But, you've perservered and created something special. That takes both guts and talents that very few have.

[S.Figur-the_real_one]

I love it, DCS is the best Sim. Thx for it. 60y old fan boy ;-)

[Zatracenec]

This is incredible. The new fog and terrains, ....it looks so freaking realistic! I didn´t expect to be still alive to witness simulations being this awesome. :-D Great job ED and all developers.

[medwaystudios]

Looks amazing. Hope no Italians heard how the voiceover pronounced Da Vinci though.

[bulletstop]

I can't wait. I love all the work you folks are putting in. This simulation just keeps getting better and better!
