The big danger for BoP online multiplayer

BTW, as there are no AI wingmen, in MP you can use D-pad on a gamepad to look around

if the sticks were flipped this would have made the need for a joystick almost obsolete

Because the throttle sticks to where it is set you can just use your right hand for steering the plane and the dpad for looking around in the cockpit

Probably still difficult while controlling the plane with the left thumbstick, but it's definitely good news. Thanks for sharing all the info with us Anton!

Yes that is actually just as useless because ideally you want to be able to look and maneauver the plane at the same time...as is they can only look and adjust throttle and rudders because of the lack of stick control options...so really that is just as bad or worse then the other option of holding in the stick while they look....but hey this doesnt affect me because I bought the ace combat stick for $100, and have the aviator stick as a backup, because I am not a dumbass when it comes to getting the proper equipment for my gaming vice!

Yeah I'll probably just buy one of those Southpaw 360 controllers someone posted a link too yesterday... I suck at soldering

another MP question:
is there friendly fire on?

The Aviator works pretty well. About as well as any $50 stick and it's MUCH easier then using the regular controller.

Not sure why we couldn't just take a really good stick, pull out the PCB board and replace it with an Xbox controller or AV8TR board. Would take some soldering but with all the info available for modding 360 controllers I don't think it would be that hard.
