Can't wait!...looks great!

Yup. A must. Will wipe the floor w/ anything else either out there already or coming in the near future it seems...

Is this update actually coming out? Wasn't "BS" vapor ware?

If it ever does hit the shelves I will probably get it (as the screens look awesome), but I thought it was suppose to be released a couple of years ago??

Well, at least there is an update every few weeks, developers notes with video and a presentation on LAN-partys and members of the staff answering questions and giving hints and informations what is going on, what the next objective and the next sequel will be about, etc.

A lot of information for Vapor-Ware compared to... well, nevermind... ;)

PS: The lack of information last year was due to the fact that the team had developed an A-10 Simulator for a customer in the US. Now that is a recommendation, huh?

lol, good one :D

I did kind of "lob" that one over center plate...

I was a little afraid that the "set-up" was a little too obvious :O :)

Haven't really been interested in helicopters so far, but would take a look at detailed study sim. On the other hand, clickable cockpits... which hand am I supposed to use on the mouse? It's simple for me to reach out and strike a couple of keys in the middle of a df, but having to locate the mouse, look down and carefully maneuvre the cursor over the appropriate switch... seems like a waste of time.
I appreciate that other people might feel differently, but if the cockpit animations are there, you can still see the switches moving... why do you need to click over them?

You don't NEED to click them in BS either. As in Falcon4 you can move any of the switches by mouse, but you can also map them to keys. And then, how many times do you inflight do the complete engine-startup, the activation of fuelpumps, radios, avionics, ejection-system and other subsystems, programming of ECm and flightpath, etc?
So, in the end you'll probably need the keys you have in LockOn now, for normal operation, but you CAN use the switches, too. It's not a must, but an offer.

Saitek X-52 has a mouse cursor on the throttle,usefull in IL2 for scrolling the map and not interupting your flight.

Another good point :grin:

And you even don't need your mouse-stick - you just need a button for left-click, as apparently the mouse remains in position when turning the head. So you can center it, move the view over buttons and click.
