Pretty positive preview here. There are some gameplay vids on YouTube of the PC version and it looks pretty fun to me

Default Auto Lock on!!!

Just watch a utube vid of this game, graphics are ok, but the physics stink and they have auto lock on, where all you have to do is fire.

The preview says there are different flight models. Pretty sure the videos on YouTube must be easy mode. I watched one where the guy is in a sopwith camel and lands on the battlefield and then drives around running over infantrymen!
Graphics look really nice though. It's like next gen Blazing Angels, which to me is no bad thing..sometimes all you need are simple things to amuse

I ordered it anyway. No idea when I will get around to playing it but I will give my honest opinion when I do

Reviews are starting to appear now this game is out, and they arn't good. This one is especialy low scoring http://www.nowgamer.com/reviews/xbox...rs?o=0#listing although the reviewer is a idiot.

With hindsight, it’s easy to see why the WWII genre stopped creating compelling experiences, and studios like Gearbox are taking it in new directions with Brothers In Arms: Furious 4. To give Air Conflict’s the benefit of the doubt as one of the only new WWII shooters to come out in the last few years, would be to ignore the genuinely good games that are already out there.
Urmmm hello? Birds of Prey? Battlestations Pacific?

what a shame..... was hoping it was somewhat worth experiencing until BSoS came out.
