Smile so.. hi everyone.

Well, as you can tell by my meager Post count i am new here. kinda just wanted to introduce myself. i just got this game about a week ago and love it so far. currently playing the single player on 360, Arcade, using the Saitek Flight stick. well this weekend i went to play it online and there werent a whole lot of people playing. (it was very late) i was just wondering when do most of you guys play online? and what difficulty and system. i'm sure i'll get my butt kicked but i wouldnt mind getting on with some people one of these days.

Also, i heard rumors that they are going to be adding Customizable Controls which i could use for the flight stick, any one know about that?

Welcome to the forums =]

Theres a good mix of people here that play all of the game modes, but one thing that i think is fairly universal is everyone looks at arcade as the weakest side of the game...without the immense physics and realism this game may aswell have been a DLC title...talk to some of the guys and try and get in on a little realistic action, then move onto sim

What system are you using? Anyways i think you'll find most of the people here really easy going, and its easily the most welcoming forum ive ever found.

Happy hunting xD

When you are on line, add me if you wish.. I play allot of strike and capture the airfield matches... some days, it is slow, others there are allot of battles going on. I play in archade, and realistic mostly, prefer realistic, but lately, been trying to practice sim because i would like to start doing some of that. the only problem is, when I start a realistic match, many people drop out because they only want to do archade.. that kinda sucks, but it is even worse if you start a sim match..

ha, yeah people here seem friendly. i could def see people looking at arcade as the weakest link in the game. my idea was to beat through it on arcade and move up. i tried the realistic tutorial and even that was tough for me. especally the stalling, i couldnt seem to pull out of a spin. i would definitely like to eventually move up to Realistic. maaaaaaaaybe Sim, but i'll worry about that at another time lol.
so when you guys play can you generally get full rooms or what, the most ive ever had was 3-3 with a guy leaving like 30 seconds in.

i kind of wish they made it like CoD where you can just join on the fly.

tip for stalling, while you're starting out...

Move your aileron and elevator sensitivities ALL the Way to the right

then move BOTH sensitivities 11 clicks to the left. then unless you're overly rough you shouldn't spin.

as for escaping spins once you're in them, push DOWN and the OPPOSITE way with both rudder and ailerons.

hope to see you online and I can help you practice if you like.
