I might be out of line, but this is what I think.

First, it is not adapting. It's completely new game. You are simply mistaken.
Second, that's exactly what we put attention for. You can check it with a demo.
Third, luckily it's not you who name the game.
Fourth, yes, you are out of line.

Edit: And, yes, you really think it's better to know things two weeks prior release, than two weeks after you've bought the game? What's wrong with the timing?

Sorry, don't know by heart.
I am out of office, can't check now.
Basically, those in Campaign, except those with gunners (because we have 3rd person gunner view only, by design), do have.
Can't give you exact list now.

Do you guys plan on making 1st person gunning in DLC?

that would be pretty tricky , i would rather have more cockpits then turrets

A 3rd person view would be better for defending the plane in multiplayer too. and it shows off the pretty environment

Well cockpits too of course. I'm just curious, because 3rd person gunning may give the gunner the edge.

No, for sure.
It is actually very confusing, especially if you have a lot of gunners.
It is hard to switch them, and you are confused in what you are doing, and you can miss 'your' gunner, or pilot, and it is annoying for a lot of players.
The authentitic feel, in my personal opinion,not paying out here.
So, no, at least until we'll invent something completely new (like another MP mode).

Okay, thanks for replying. It's not a big deal to me. I just wanted to know for sure if it' gonna be in or not.

Okay. Thanks for the reply. By the way, is there going to be a plane list released before the game itself comes out?
