I don't think it's an unrealistic expectation in any case. Getting a new sim anytime soon is the pipe dream. But if we get one, I'd be surprised if it didn't have a campaign feature considering the disappointment caused by the lack of a true campaign engine in DW and the success of the campaign based SH series. I think a dynamic campaign engine is simply part of the consumer's basic expectations at this point in time.

No you misunderstood me. What I meant to say was that no commercial developer has taken upon himself to make a product that not only equals but outshines Falcon 4. Of course players love Falcon 4, until something else comes along that delivers a 360 degree better experience that is.
And something like this is not going to happen, just look at all the military simulations.
Black Shark could have been a testbed for a dynamic campaign in the caucasus region, instead all you get are scripted missions and an editor.
There is a new WWI military air simulation. Same problem, all scripted missions and multiplayer. No dynamic campaign, not even a casual mission generator. I mean the games from thirdwire have a primitive random mission generator and no AAA software house can do something like that ?
It really means they are not interested. Why ? Who knows. Maybe players prefer simple multiplayer instead of these epic campaigns.
