Question for the developers of Birds of prey

[virre89]

I hope the devs really make it as close to a sim you can get on a console.

I never liked consoles , i do own a 360 and i intend to get this game just to support you guys , but still i don't think flight games belong on consoles since they end up not being sims.

Let's just hope its not gonna be like Ace Combat 6 were you pull your analog stick and the plane will turn instantly super fast and everything becomes a matter of PING PONG at light speed...(meaning Arcade)

agreed , i doubt they will be able to do the complicated stuff like prop management though

but if the planes handle great thats all i need

"handle great"...with a gamepad?

View control and detailed control surface input has always been an issue with any type of console flying game for me. In the same way the view control in "shooters" on consoles pales in comparison to using a mouse/keyboard on a pc there are limitations people just have to deal with.

Their's an Xbox controller that look a lot like an X-52 Hotas... this should help. But as others have mentioned... no TrackIR or rudder pedals will kill this thing for me...

But I will poney up the $$$ just to support the genre...
