    It genuinely amuses me that DCS has had very few instances of sensitive or classified information being leaked.

    Whereas frigging War Thunder can’t make it a quarter without needing to scrub their forums.

    I understand the reality is that it is not about authenticity and more about being able to say the missile they schlep around a hanger is the best missile in the world. But still! You would expect the sickos who get off on the exact right shade of deteriorated grey being on a bezel would care more than the War Thunder crowd.

      It’s because playing War Thunder makes people very, very angry.

        I think Gaijin also causes this with how they “artificially balance” vehicles based on vague or basically made-up sources and ignore direct sources when it pleases them. Look at the current fiasco going on with their new $60 tank that can’t even get smoke grenades for the launcher that’s literally on the model for a perfect example.

        Or, that time they refused to buff a WW2 tank and called the Wikipedia article a classified document.
