Please don't dumb down this game.
 
I just realised this is a console game, in which case dumb it down as much as you like. But please can we have a detailed, accurate sim for the PC market;using DCS Blackshark as a benchmark.

At least do some rudimentary research before you jump to conclusions next time, eh?

A google search doesn't take that long. Takes less than a second, actually.

And this game isn't dumbed down: being on a console doesn't necessitate that either.

LOL! :rolleyes:

The guys making this game don't want to make a PC game because they realise that consoles are the way forward.

It blows my mind how PC users often immediately assume that since a game is on a console that it is by definition inferior or basic. I used to be one of them as well. Yes, I am a PC ---> Console convert.

Console games do not need to be dumbed down. Their only limitation is not having 102 buttons to fumble through. Consoles are able to get around it by using new radial menus which, with practice, can become second nature to a gamer.

Although I often wish for a Keyboard + Mouse control on many of my FPS console games, I still live with what I have. I just got to the point to where I would rather spend $600 a year on new games than $600 a year on a new PC setup and then buy games ontop of that.

For instance, this year the only PC game I want is Arma 2. Which is going to cost me aound $700 to play due to the fact my PC is about 6 years old. The Arma 2 demo only runs for me on all the lowest graphical settings at only 8 FPS!

Your an idiot...no, i'm not kidding. just listen to the guys above me who are laughing at your very existence. do some research, this game has WAY better graphics then any on PC and probably better damage quality.

There will be two modes arcade and simulator.

- PC simulation market is dying day by day. I would like to say the contrary but it is not. Too many remix from old titles nothing really new and fresh.

The latest Rise of Flight looks poor, only two airplanes and a very poor quality scenery(almost look like a 5 years old sim).
Nothing new in the horizon

...And why am I saying all of this?...

We need more sims and consoles can help to spread the word, since console market can even create new simmer guys who will demand better and more realistic sims...Or simulators will continue to be something for a few.

I don´t think that a console (at least in this generation) can hadle a title like Black Shark(too many keys), but consoles can support titles like Silent Hunter series, Lockon, IL2, ARMA II and any of this kind.

Hi, I'm Earth. Have we met?

Most console gamers can handle anything the PC has to offer, we're not all 15years old.

Not to add fuel to the fire, but I have a feeling most of you missed the laundry list of demands that were originally posted (and subsequently followed with, "I'm not asking for much").

Seriously, this game is going to kick so much tail.
