Better GFX than AC? Now that's something I gotta see to believe.

Sabotage can always appreciate a good flying sim.

well, as far as the ground is concerned, I think so. Got on it again a few mins ago to check out the co-op side of it, tried twice, froze twice while in mission. Forgot to check out cockpit view too. I still like my TPS view, lol

I always use Cockpit view, crank up the sound in my headphones, and put cinder blocks on my chest to get the full experience.

Played the 2nd mission co-op with two other people last night. The game looks good. Don't fighter jets usually have a navigator/ordnance officer riding with the pilot to assist with targeting?

No actually there aren't many fighters now a days that use a RIO (Radio Interceptor Officer), he's the back seater. The only fighters still in service that have a back seater are the F/A 18, and the F-15. For the most part all mapping and radio communication is done by the pilot and his/her computer. Oh and the RIO isn't really for targeting, their main job is basically navigation and a second pair of eyes.

Even as far as the F15's & F18s, I think most of those are 1 seaters now as well...

Right, but those are the only models that still use it. There's technology in the military that we wont see a hint of for decades.

Yea that's nice, but AC5 and this would be the only games I'd use it for.
