For years.. even before IL-2 itself there have been members of the flight simming community that have been asking for manable AAA.

Had 1C not added manable AAA..

All the post complaing about having it would be replaced by post complaing about not having it

Just another example of dammed if you do dammed if you don't

Personally, I would rather see 1C spent their time and money on plane oriented things

But maybe this is an example of what Luither recently talked about?

With regards to team members not being able to be pulled off what they are good at and put onto something else.

Assuming that is the case here, as in the team member(s) doing the AAA can not work on something else (say gun turrets in a bomber) than I would rather have them doing AAA than nothing at all.

It could be worse!

At least this is related to flight simming! Let's just hope they draw the line there and don't try to include a tank sim too! As much as I would love to see a good tank sim done by a company like 1C, the reality is (thus far based on 20+ years of gaming) that any game that tries to be all things end up doing no one thing very well. The only exception to this rule I have found is ARMA.. Which is still the most realistic FPS out there.. but at the same time has a vehicle and flight sim build into it. And anyone that has played ARMA knows the vehicle and flight aspects of ARMA are really dumbed down. So with that said, as long as 1C keeps the flight sim aspect the main focus, and all 'other' things added to it are the dumb downed aspects like ARMA than I would be happy. Assuming those 'other' things added are just because said team members have nothing flight sim oriented to work on at the moment.
