My question is regarding the single player game.
I know you have stated that this is not so important anymore, but for many of us living in remote areas, or distant countries, ping rate or bandwidth or even time time available for gaming make online gaming difficult or impossible.
Here in New Zealand, for example ping to overseas servers is very bad, and there are few flight sim enthusiasts locally.
I realise that many or perhaps most are interested mainly in online gaming, but I suspect that the online gamers are also far more likely to frequent forums like this and so have their point of view heard more.
For the rest of us, the single player game is everything.
The most important part of this is the AI, so...my questions are:

Does the statement that single player game is less important now mean that less work will now be done on the AI in order to advance the multi-player game?

Will the morale of the AI be modeled (as in for example close combat series) so that AI may run in fear or go crazy with anger etc.?

Will the AI use realistic tactics of the time (for example RAF predominant use of line astern/vic formation)

Are you able to give us some idea of what we can and can't expect from the AI in general?
