I agree, although I haven't played it yet. (Just read opinions, reviews etc.)

It's a sim so that's the way it has to be, but basically I'm starting to reach my limits of immersion with ultra-complex sims like this. I'm the limiting factor, in other words. LOMAC was nice, but obviously not nearly as complex as this.

I'll buy the game one day though...the A-10 is such an amazing aircraft.

Problem with sims like A-10 is unless you have a full mock up pit it is just too tedious trying to remember if you assigned Ctrl+Alt to this or was it Shift + Alt.......aww f**k it ill just get airborne and strafe my own airfield with the gatling.

Exactly, too hardcore for me. Flanker 2.0 was complicated but A-10 seems even more so. That's why I prefer WWII aircraft, no complicated weapon systems.

Interesting to think that someone who flys that sim in FULL real settings could actually jump inot a real A-10 and fly it?

Apart from Downloading way points into the nav comp (if they do that) before flights and actual pilot fitness do you think there would be any difference as far as input/controls go?

Dare i say that complex flight sims and how real they actually are helped one of the biggest terrorist attacks take shape and succeed

These Sims are getting so complex it amazes me

it didn't quite work that way, all those terrorists on the 911 flights were actually going through flight training at a major flight training organization in the US, they had to use MS flight sim to practice the awfull event they planned because it would have been perhaps a little obvious what they were up to trying to practice it in the actual simulators.......although it was blatantly dubious that they never showed interest in learning to land.

not so sure just anybody could climb into the A-10 and fly it just because of the sim either but I do agree with you the fidelity is amazing and there certainly would be some people capable of it.
