A picture is worth a thousand words they say and a video is worth dozens of times more than that. That’s how I look at the latest video from DCS World YouTuber Spudknocker who has an early access look at DCS: Sinai from OnReTech.
Covering a lot of ground
This is a cinematic with no talking because really this is all just about DCS: Sinai. The map is speaking for itself and it’s looking really good.
Spudknocker sets on a mission in the DCS: F-16C and flies us across a whole bunch of different places. Resort towns, airbases, different types of scenery seen at low and high altitude, and then ultimately to attack targets with some laser guided bombs.
The video is available for viewing here.
The first impressions of this map are that it is quite good looking. Although DCS: Sinai offers a similar desert aesthetic to what we’ve seen before, it still impresses me to see all of the little details that other maps have brought to the table. River valleys with vegetation, brushes and scrub typical in these desert regions, lots of buildings in the built up areas, nicely detailed airbases, and more.
The first impression here I think is really good. OnReTech is not a veteran map developer like Eagle Dynamics and Ugra Media and so they have to prove their abilities to the community. From the looks of things, their abilities to make use of the latest DCS World map tech seem to be keeping right up. I look forward to seeing more.
For refresher, here are some of the images released during the initial announcement.
