I apologise for my original post Tacky, you caught me in a weak moment after reading all the negative threads and I took your "tone" the wrong way, my bad.

Your above post explains some of the differences with players of this sim, unlike consoles where everyone is playing on an even platform the nature of pc's vary greatly.

I personally have spent well over $2000 (probarly much more) on various Hotas, trackir's, headphones and pc upgrades over the last 8 years just to enjoy this game. I fully understand that not everyone enjoys "full switch" and a lot of players just like to fly in the action servers, and therein lies our differences of opinion in what is important in the game and what isn't.

If COD does attract a lot of new players from word of mouth/steam or whatever, the majority of those players will fly in the easier dogfight servers with maybe 5% taking it to the next level.
And those of us who have played the game primarliy as a WW2 flight "simulator" must realise that if the game does go forward we will become the minority.

As i said earlier each to thier own, lets just all enjoy it when it is released no matter what our preferred style of play.

Cheers
