One of the best trailers for DCS I’ve ever seen! Also that soundtrack was sick.
I expect to see some vids with you and Ralfi shortly after launch ;)
love you drewski you are my favorite guy .
@@aslamsalam2749 same
Get on this Drew.
Thank you Sir. Cato excelled himself. Kind regards Nick
This is probably the most brutal video Eagle Dynamics has ever released
That IR cam is nuts!
Fits the Apache perfectly.
@@after_midnight9592 true
They must really really hate infantry.
@paulina dare That's what Apaches are most notorious for. Most gun cam footage is people getting blown away by that 30 mm.
It feels like yesterday that the A-10 was released, ED’s most advanced and modern module at the time. Then not too long ago the Hornet, a beautiful step into simulated carrier aviation. Now it’s the Apache. Nothing like what it’s planned to be exists. A full fledged sim of one of the deadliest attack helicopters ever made. You’ve come so far Eagle Dynamics! Congratulations on the success and thanks for the awesome experiences we all have playing DCS!
Thank you for being with us on our journey. - Scott / bignewy
@@EagleDynamicsTV It looks amazing. You could use it to shoot a movie and people might not realize it was a sim. I was particularly impressed by the exploding truck. What a great shot. Detritus was spinning and flying and arcing away in a very realistic fashion.
Sometimes people manage to make Arma 3 look like IRL, the capabilities of DCS… Especially that scene where the apache is seen from the dark side because the sun is on the side that you‘re not looking at is iconic
@@theskirata7034 The Daily Mail has mistaken ArmA footage for real videos several times
You forgot the fact that many of their modules suffer from a terminally servere case of Early Access.
My wallet: "It's not possible."
Me: "No. It's necessary."
'you can save on clothes, buy the DCS Apache module instead. It's not as if you will be going out once you buy it. Fly naked!'
C'mon LeonardoETC.....C'MON LEONARDOETC!
I used all my miles for it. paid 24 bucks.
ahahahahahah, same here =)
only clothes you will need to wear when flying this is a highly absorbant thong , for those sh*tting your pants moments !
I live near Fort Bragg, so we see these guys all the time. Several years ago when coming back home from the PX on Bragg, I crest a hill in my car. On the other side of the hill was a Longbow pointing right at me. I think those guys were having a little fun at my expense. Nevertheless, an incredible weapon....
There is nothing like seeing the real thing up close, but we hope you enjoy the closest thing to the real thing very soon! -NineLine/Norm
@@EagleDynamicsTV I had one break down and land on my grandparents farm land. It took them a week to pick it up out in the middle of no where.
I had the same kind of experience driving fast on a Belgian country road, when an Agusta flew over me and stopped into a hover right above the road. I could not help myself and had to slow down. I guess i was giving them an interesting target to track and intercept. I will never forget it. Wish it was an Apache though, but we don't have those :(
Did you feel like a hot chick getting too much attention, but kinda flattered at the same time?
Simply amazing I never thought ED would try this just due to how hard it must have been. You guys have proven your team truly has no limits as to what they can do. Please give all of your programmers a huge thumbs up for all of us that love combat flight sims. Well done ED I’m a customer for life.
Thank you for the kind words and support I will pass it on to our team. Thanks - Scott / bignewy
My social life continues to decline as I happily sink deeper and deeper into the DCS Module Abyss. Thank you ED! :D
Whats a social life? :P
This could be the moment that our virtual selves surpass the importance of our actual selves. Hip hip. Hoooray!
There’s not a soldier that’s served In Iraq or Afghan the past two decades that doesn’t owe this machine their lives …. The smile it brought to my face just hearing it was coming
@Zeb ?
@Zeb Dear Sir, our company is Swiss owned and Swiss based. Cato Bye is the brilliant employee behind our main video efforts and he is Norwegian. Apologies for the minor correction. Respectfully yours ever, Nick
@Zeb … but one thing is for certain, we all love freedom and the need for democracy in the world 🙏🏻. The US military is a fine representative of those values in general and we salute the men and women who fight so bravely to maintain peace and security in the world. Many thanks for passion and support. Kind regards Nick

We hope you get to join us in the virtual skies again soon. Thank you - Scott / bignewy
Ever since Jane's Longbow 2 I've dreamed of flying this aircraft! Thank YOU for making MY dreams come true, ED! It will be a beast in VR!
ED: "We need a pre order launch trailer for the AH64... and it needs to be epic"
Mission a-freakin-complished. mind blown
Dear Sir, Cato did a magnificent job! Many thanks for your passion and support. Kind regards Nick
Since learning Andy Hollis' Gunship! on C64 when I was 5, then the Jane's Longbow games (thanks to Brad), and finally Enemy Engaged: Apache vs Havoc, this was all I wanted to do in life.
It's a dream come true, once again, so I cannot wait much longer!
Similar story here, except Digital Integration's _Apache_ instead of Jane's Longbow. Anyway, we've come quite a long way.
This was my dream since i first fell in love with helos by flying the Huey. Thank you ED for dreams becoming reality.
Our pleasure, we hope you will love it! -NineLine/Norm
This was every simmers dream since Ka-50 was released as a DCS, it' wasn't even a World back then.
Always at the top of every module wishlist and countless threads how great it would be to have it.
I played MicroProse's Gunship 2000 way back in 1991.
Finally after 30 years, another great AH64 sim.
….the entire time I was just hearing:
“You got a roll rate of 150 degrees per second, so if you need to duck, dive, or disappear this buggy will do it before your brain can think it up. We can crash this aircraft at 20Gs and survive but I am NOT gonna prove it to you.
You got missiles on this thing that can take out a door at 5 miles without knockin’. BUT, in air-to-air combat, your best weapon is agility and this gunship is agile, mobile, and hostile.
Ordinarily, what we’ll do is hide in a hole and cause things that are far away to blow up, but your new trick is to move like a thief, keep your nose down…then come outta nowhere…and blow your enemy to pieces.
Sound like fun?”

Congratulations, you guys have outdone yourselves on this one, the module looks amazing. No doubt this will be a must have asset, and bodes well for future multi-player and single-player excitement. One of these days will love to sit down and chat with you about the development process, the delivery of this has been pretty slick.
Eagle dynamics you are making me not only love the apache even more but you have given me an video to rewatch a few dozen times for this month, thank you :D
You are not alone, I keep rewatching it also. Thanks - Scott / bignewy
Not even a month, only 2 weeks TM
Man I can't wait. My dad was an engineer for the Apache for a period of time. I have his Apache lapel pin. Awesome.
I can't believe this is a game/sim/training sim. It's gorgeous. Never seen anything like DCSW
Purchased indeed !! Well done Wags! Proud to have played a small part in the wonderful growth that is DCS world with the Shark and the A-10C. Best wishes to you my man. Tyger.
Thank you Tyger, appreciate your support. - Scott / bignewy
So I live close to a TX National Guard unit and see Apaches all the time, but one time on a motorcycle ride with my dad in a rural area I about jumped out of my skin when one flew right over us from behind with his wheels just high enough to clear the trees. I talked to a pilot later at an air show and he said that’s is the area they do off field training at, also got to climb in the cockpit so my excitement is immeasurable!
I'm actually a little emotional, having been under fire and seen these in action. Wow. This made me feel a little more alive.
The boys at Microprose have tears in their eyes I'm sure, how far we've come. You should be proud!!! 👏👏👏
At AirVenture 2021 this year in Oshkosh I noticed that an Ah-64 was on display in Boeing field. I already knew the heli was in development so I walked over to the long line and waited for my chance to sit in the pilots seat. When I finally climbed into that beast of a machine I was at a loss for words. I wasn't allowed to even touch the control stick but looking at the amazing technology was breathtaking. When I climbed out, rather slowly, I told myself that I'd buy this heli on dcs the day that it came out. I am beyond excited to learn to fly this work of art that I physically sat in only a couple months ago.
Amazing, ive been waiting for this since Janes AH-64D Longbow!
Your trailer team could sell a ketchup flavored popsicle to a woman with white gloves on a 105° day. I've never wanted a digital helicopter so bad in my life
Definitely cannot WAIT to fly the Longbow! Janes Longbow 2 was one of my all-time favorite flight simulators, but I know it won't hold a candle to the accuracy of the DCS flight model and aircraft systems and realistic operations. I CAN'T WAIT!
Good luck learning to operate this thing though...
😂 Yep I’m a Janes Longbow nut as well, did so many hours in that game/sim. I agree this will be on a whole new level. I’m hoping there will be a "hand holding" mode to get me started though as I know I’d struggle slightly to get going, I can see me spending two hours just figuring out to switch on the engines! 😆
@@andrewharper4296 I wish I had that time. I remember doing that to the ka50, a10 and jf17. I will wait until I do for this one. Im not sure on how complex this thing is, and I know squat about helis 😂
Been waiting since Longbow2 ...now that's a Loooong time!
Nay, you.are.not.
Yeah, me too
I've been waiting for this Day for 24 Years! 😊
Me too -NineLine/Norm
Pre-ordered few days ago. This is my first pre-order in DCS (all previous purchases have been when the modules were in Early Access already). I just got into DCS seriously only in 2022 and this "game" grows on you the more hours you put into it. The sense of accomplishment of learning just one more system or skill and becoming proficient in it has no parallels in the gaming industry. The cockpit starts to truly feel like "home". Familiar. It's even more amazing when you watch real life footage of some of these and see that it's all the same and you understand all the HUD symbiology and what each button does. The Apache and Cobra are my 2 favorite attack helicopters from childhood, and cant wait to be able to fly it. Modules like these transform the game by essentially adding a game within a game. Eagle Dynamics deserves all the financial success for what they are accomplishing and allowing us to live our dreams from our computers.
Thank you for your kind words, we hope you will enjoy and have many years of fun. - Scott / bignewy
Nice birthday present ED :) One of the DLCs I am looking forward to the most :) Thank you for that present!
Happy Birthday!!
Happy birthday Sir. Kind regards, Nick
Happy birthday!
Happy Birthday 🥳
Thank you very much gentlemen :)
Thanks for illustrating what Democracy and Freedom truly was, it may be violent but without them, it would be more violent. This one nails how it looks like.
I’m an apache crew chief and this is awesome been looking at it closely and happy to say they have all the details right! Would we also get a dirty one with primer/oil spots and chipped paint? Real apaches are filthy compared to the one on screen.
Ours will be factory fresh, but I am sure our great community of painters will fix that shortly after release. -NineLine/Norm
I second this proposal, horizontal stabilator and left side of the tail is usually splattered with oil. bugs splattered on the front, paint chips on the back of the engine nacelles due to heat. Did I miss any thing O.P.?
@@keithhudspith5245 nope ur right
Easy job for the Modders!
Friend of mine flew these until medically discharged. It's at the very top of my wish list!
This sim platform just gets better and better, we have come along way from the days of apache longbow and fighters anthology. Very well done Eagle Dynamics.
I been flying this thing for over 13 years…enjoyed every second of it. Great work!
Words cannot describe how excited I am right now.
Great job ED for brining my Childhood to life! Growing up around the Apache this has been a dream for so long.
Jesus Christ! That was intense!!!
I was already pumped up for this module and this video just blew my mind. I can't wait to see the result of all of your guys' work.
Haven't been as excited for a sim since Black Shark, a decade ago.
I own 32 modules and this one not gonna do exception and will have the honor to be my 33rd for my 33rd Birthday this November! xD Great joob ED and thanks for the amazing work!
This is like a very good movie trailer, great visuals and audio - epic job as always guys, I cannot wait to fly this thing!!
It’s going to be funny seeing the skating crouched RPG soldiers on the flir.
Oof. I really hope they work on the combined arms / infantry mechanics.
@@BasictoFinal That HAS to be the next enhancement to DCS. What would be the point of shooting static targets with a weapon as dynamic as the apache?
i think Fry said it best in Futurama: "Im Scareoused"
This is what you pay money for - Idk how folks shell out 60$ for warthunder when you can learn to fly the real deal.
War thunder is free
@@cacheloproblox8674 and it sucks
@@mirandaab972 I can second this with 5 years of getting fucked over by Warthunder. (It’s still fun somehow)
@@mirandaab972 I wouldn't say that War Thunder is bad, but it is certainly P2P.
There trailers never disappoint
There is a rule, that creators not answering comments 2 month after video posting...
But i need to say, that i entered DCS this year after first unsuccessfull attempt to figure out how it works.. And now. Hundreds of hours spent, bunch of modules bought, and i need to say - this game is awesome. And now i, probably, experience the best period of its lifecycle.
I bought this heli in the day when preorder just started. And i hope the day after tomorrow i will be able to experience it.
Keep going, guys. You do awesome job. Appreciate effort you put in your project.
they've just postponed the release until late January 2022 :(
This is gonna be extraordinary, a new important milestone for ED
Pre Order Done.

And on my command... Unleash Hell...fires!
This is great. Perhaps this will drive the necessity to improve the infantry/ combined arms mechanics.
Improved infantry is planned. Thank you - Scott / bignewy
I think they mentioned updating the infantry animations, most likely to facilitate this modules realism a little better
@@adamgoral5517 I must have missed that announcement. That’s good to hear!
@@EagleDynamicsTV Will it be possible to control them first-person style (similar to MANPADS)?
Ummm no, they will continue to push out more money making products while doing absolutely nothing to better the ground AI, or the path finding, or the trees that the AI can shoot through. It's eye candy and big hollywood music to sell to people who will most likely be bored with the helicopter in a few weeks and move on to whatever else they push out the door.
Thank you Eagle dynamics, you have made my dreams come true!
Our pleasure!
Wow!... just wow!. Those are the only words I find to describe how epic how this trailer was!. Well done all :D
finally..the best simulation for the best combat helicopter in the world.Thank you.
How I loved Janes Longbow ..... 3dFX .... The king is dead.... Long live the King !
I have been with Eagle Dynamics since 1995... it has taken big part of my spare time. Does not cease to amaze me. In recent years we have gotten quite a few most wanted products. This one as all previous module as must buy. Still waiting for the ultimate Flanker module ^^
This is the coolest thing I've seen. Instant buy when possible.
Thanks for the kind words and support! -NineLine/Norm
1:09 and 2:00 are about as real as it gets... gave me chills. Can't wait to see how she compares to the big rig.
Can´t wait, bring this bird to us, thank you Eagle Dynamics
Stunning trailer, and the modelling of the Apache just looks amazing. I loved Jane's Longbow so much back in the day, I cannot wait for this to arrive.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks - Scott / bignewy
Mal wieder ein super Verkaufsvideo...lange drauf gewartet, habe ihn mir schon gekauft freue mich darauf
Best DCS Mod YET, Pre-order mine, ED has done it again, can do no wrong, Worship the Eagle. " Now let's get to work"
When I played Microprose's Gunship as a kid, on C64 and Amiga, I had to use my imagination for most of it. Not any more.
This... this right here is what is going to pull me back into DCS. I've been waiting, ever since Jane's Longbow 2, for a proper Apache simulator. Thank you Eagle Dynamics!!
ED you make me feel like a little kid before christmas again wth.
good to hear, we hope you will enjoy once in early access. Thanks - Scott / bignewy
Looks great!!! Exciting to see more whirly-birds.
Me : Lets GO !!!!
My wallet : Ah shit, here we go again.
My kids started dropping money in Dad's steam account. lol I'm ready.

Really outdoing yourselves with these trailers ED! Instant pre-order for me. As a huge fan of the Mi-24 and soon to be the Apache, really looking forward to a potential overhaul or expansion of the ground units! Top-notch work here and to everyone on the team.
Thanks! We appreciate the kind words. -NineLine/Norm
Best DCS year since the Hip and the Huey came out TBVFH.

Thank your for your passion and support as well! -NineLine/Norm
I....This......My dog exploded......This is hands down the most epic thing I have ever watched on UA-cam.
I am begging you, give me a little taste, I don't care what. Let me valet it into the hanger for you or Windex the windows with a newspaper......Please just give us SOMETHING!!! ANYTHING!!!
I hope I don't come off as some sick wierdo, but does anyone else think that DCS should consider adding a dismemberment system? Or a basic blood sprite that shows up on FLIR at the very least.
This is the definition of savagery
I've never been more stoked for a dcs module before.
Nope, fuck it this mind as well be real life. Amazing Job @Eagle Dynamic. Bought the module right when the preorder came out
When I was a much younger man, Jane's released Longbow 2. It was one of my all time favorite games at thisand this video almost made me cry. I can't freaking wait.
Great memories for sure, we hope you will enjoy. Thanks - Scott / bignewy

I LOL hard on this. I think there's such a large fanbase like me that just hogs up the modules but have no time to play (yet).

Wow...that trailer...well done! Are those voice overs from real life recordings or were they recorded for the trailer? They're the most realistic ones I've ever heard, I'd love to talk to the guy who processed them with effects :)
Hi! Many thanks, glad you enjoyed it! :) The voices are indeed from real recordings and actual AH-64 operations. Not much effects were applied there, mostly just removing some of the "hizzing" high frequencies.
@@GlowingAmraam Relieved to hear that haha :D I always spend ages trying to make my voice overs sound realistic, but I've never heard anything THIS realistic. I was gonna ask you about the filters you used :) Anyhow, terrific trailer, great job, mate!
