Suggestions to Developers.
1) Buy/download a copy of Warhawk (PS3) or perhaps Halo3 and look carefully at the lobby systems... Notice how they work? (team balancing, friends slots, clan support, etc) Great! Now incorporate it into your game!
2) Lose the rubber band effect on the gunsights in sim and realistic mode - the last time I flew, my horizon didn't keep bouncing around every time an adjustment was made to the flight path.
