Actually this I do agree with. There is a piss poor selection of flight sticks for the 360. I would definately like to see some more choice in this area.

I guess I will just get the Aviator at launch and wait to see if a better stick comes out, though I will be watching to see if there is a flightstick bundle.

To be fair it's mostly turned into an argument because of some twelve year old morons going "How dare you criticise, this game is GREAT!!!!, STFU and get used to it"

On reflection even if the option was there to swap the sticks then the pad would still be pretty useless as you would then have the problem of having to remove your thumb from the main flight controls in order to use the face buttons.

So for me whether or not I get this game all hinges on the availability of a decent flight stick.

One thing unrelated to the control scheme that was bugging me a bit is the targetting. Is there any way to set an enemy in your crosshairs as the target? For a game that boasts about how many planes might be in the air at a time the current system of going through every single one seems a bit cumbersome.

WWII planes didn't have a targetting system, just human eyesight so I guess the developers didn't want to make the game too inaccurate with a complex HUD style targetting system but wanted to make something available so it wasn't too hard to play. If you use Sim mode you have no targetting at all!

Well they certainly saw fit to include a targetting system on all but one of the modes, all I'm suggesting is a "hold A to target nearest enemy in view" or similar. I'm not convinced by your argument that the lack of any such feature is some kind of an attempt at, or a nod toward, authenticity.

You really think you're gods now, that's interesting.

I now know it's all better when a firm stays mysterious and I don't see any interest for the company to answer spoiled children's Demands (with a big "D").
They're certainly pretty lucky to have someone as special as you to stand up for them. Perhaps 'Anton' will send you a special prize.
