In the DCS community (DCS is a flight simulator game/software) we had valid, positive interaction with the devs (ED) about military documents as well - a while back, there was a lot of arguing about capabilities and symbology presentation of one of the F18s sensors, with the devs arguing against changing the implementation and the community arguing for changing the implimentation. So the community went on a hunt - "find unclassified proof of a certain symbology change for that sensor"," and someone found it in official manuals from Spain. The devs changed the implimentation.<br><br>And the game dev in <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04K1WOEPwAE&amp;t=7m50s"">7:50</a> was in fact one of DCS's developers. DCS is not a "simple combat game" - the Pakistani and French air force as well as US guard units are using it as a training simulator for actual pilots.",(reply>), @Ryan AKA Howard52 Not entirely true, during the height of COVID the US military was using their ground modes for "virtual training exercises" whatever that means.,(reply>), The difference here is Eagle Dynamics devolops military flight sims for the military for training. They know what info is classified and not allowed into the public hardcoresim space. Gaijin is a sim game dev only.,(reply>), Yeah, unlike War Thunder it is a proper Simulation, with some issues though.<br><br>UEG like most modern mainstream  gamers has a blind spot where sims are concerned.<br><br>A bit more research should've been done.<br><br>Edit: As for Gaijin changing anything, that's a joke, Gaijin never changes anything, their wird is basically gospel (to them).<br> Some of us tried to affect changes based on declassified WW2 stuff 8 years ago and got brushed off by allegations to "secret Documents".<br>I mean "sekrit documents" are a meme in the War Thunder Community, basically meaning whatever BS Gaijin dreamed up.<br><br>Edit2: 2011 is a bit after DCS:A-10C came out, which is a study sim of the A-10C Warthog, which is in turn based on a Training sim for the US ANG, with classified stuff omitted.<br><br><br>P.S. to UEG, Sims have no balance, asymetry is part if the gameplay.
