This only works if you ensure you don't fall to the temptation of maxxing the graphics when you recieve your semi-annual system upgrade!

This is one of the main benifits of a large online war. Since each player's computer is running the complex simulation for their own aircraft, the information that needs to be transferred is much less complex. Instead of struggling to run simulations on the fifty-aircraft formation on your screen, your computer can simply recieve location and rotation information from each player, and position their aircraft on your screen accordingly.
