another rookie pilot
I've always fancied having a go at a flight sim, when I found out about Il2 on PS3 I thought it sounded great to play a flight sim and have the combat as well.
I am playing BOP on PS3, took me ages to figure out how to optomise my joystick. Steep learning curve but I think I understand a bit more about dead zones and non-linearity now. Once I got the stick sorted, I really fancied trying BOP in sim mode. So got through all tutorials and unlocked simulator. I have been practicing just flying around in simulator, and can just about avoid crashing... even managed to land a few times, mostly the hard way! The feeling of actually flying a high performance prop fighter is remarkable, realism greatly aided by the fantastic environment visuals. For me definitely the best virtual flying experience so far. Few bugs, I think other folks get. No zoom in sim mode for custom joystick layout. Had to choose between using 4th axis for either x axis camera look or yaw, chose camera look since I think without this I won't survive the dog fights when I get good enough to fly combat. What a fantastic acheivement from Madox. |
