Controls are Jerky?
 

After watching videos of demo gameplay, I couldn't help but notice that the planes looked really jerky. The movements weren't smoothed out. Has anyone had these problems?

Depends on a few things.

In sim mode you will see somwhat jerky flying, because that's exactly what it is. You are fighting prop rotation as well as turbulence.

There is also a deadzone issue with flight sticks. Trying to subtly align your sites on an enemy is a little bit jerky because of that.

I haven't played yet, but I'm assuming the videos I see are gameplay from Xbox 360 controllers.

If im correct videos by guiltyspark are with an Ace Edge.
Trust me when you play it it feels right, to me arcade is now pretty basic makes me feel im in a hollywood movie :-P

And this is what will bring a lot of new customers to IL-2. Had a few friends at home when I was playing and one of them is really not a big fan of computer games. But he watched and got fascinated by the graphics. I let him try on arcade mode and I was hardly able to get the stick back an hour later :grin:

So nobody's had any problems? I guess when I get the game I can fiddle with the control settings, or get an Ace Edge.

The controls are a bit jerky but I assume that is because that's how the planes were. These aren't fly by wire F16's. They jerk when you turn, jerk when you fire, jerk when you get hit. It's a jerk fest!!! :cool:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!:lol:

That was great.

I felt that issue to be honest, it felt like the deadzone was way too big on the 360 troller. I put the sensitivity down to only 3 or 4 bars and a bit more for the elevators and it smoothed it somewhat, but its still there.
