Realistic just "isnt"
Have been playing nothing but sim mode recently, so i have not been on arcade or realistic, though to be fair i've never gone near arcade anyway.
Well tonight i jumped in a game with pope and see on realistic, it was a dogfight. After the game finished i have to say - i hate realistic mode with a passion. I can no longer enjoy the game and be proud with myself for geting a kill because my target is lit up for me like a christmas tree, all i have to do is follow the great big red arrow. Though i only play sim mode anyway, i will not be going onto realistic anymore, its just crap lol. Anyone else got an opinion on the game mode? or anythnig to share about a certain difficulty? Any gripes? post away

Can we please make this or another thread into a gripe thread?
I am honestly getting sick of the whining all over this board. If you're gonna complain, at least do it in one place. BTW, this wasn't directed at you in particular, FOZ. Just pent up annoyance.

Sim mode is hard on my small SDTV, but I'm working on it. After I get back online I'm going to start working on the transition to only playing Sim mode in dogfights and team battles.
I wish you could make custom game types though, like keep some features of realistic, but turn some of them off. That way you could make a good balanced room if some guys want to play sim, but others aren't quite "there yet". Also, does anyone else find the handling in Arcade harder than Realistic/Sim? It's a bit strange that.

Oh I agree, I have onl plyed 2 sim dogfight games and I was annihilated (edal86!!!!) and yet I had WAY more fun than doing ok in arcade, the arrows and never stall is just awful and takes away the challenge.
As I said in another thread, heroes over europe has more multiplayability than BoP on arcade and possibly realistic

I use realistic a lot because of my crappy SDTV. (can't see anything on Sim) I never use the lock-on button (although the game auto locks on whoever you shoot at
 ) Even when it's locked on I don't use the auto look at target button and I try to ignore the arrows. If I ever get an HDTV, then Sim mode, here I come! I wish there was a Sim mode variant now that was completely the same except for icons over planes.........

Cut my teeth on SIM mode tonight with FOZ, Pope and the rest of the guys. I really enjoyed it and the chat support from your team mates telling you who's on your tail and doing what makes SIM mode an even more realistic experience. Playing with a great set of guys and the tactical communication is better than any HUD. Many thanks for the help guys.

Does anyone use a flight stick/planning to use one for their PS3 in sim mode?
It think the only reason I dont play sim mode TOO often is because I have a little issue with clicking the joystick down to stare at my enemy. It's a problem because sometimes I want to stall turn by pulling into an immelman, cutting throttle just when my nose is about to point down and then throttling back up for a nice, tight turn. But when I'm staring at my enemy with the stick, I can't decrease throttle. And the whole joystick thing defeats the purpose of a console game for me. Anyone think it's possible to be successful in this game if I just use my controller?
