So far I am loving the demo. There will be a learning curve for those not familiar with helos. For ps3 there are a few options for flying and looking because of the motion in the DS3, you can free look with controller or you can fly with movement. You can fly from any view including gunner, there is flight controls for both positions so no need to keep switching view.
I was having a time with figuring out the controls but I believe I got them except for one. How do you fire flares?
Also I love you can shoot from BVR. This is how if you haven't figured it out yet.
For PS3
Select target, (L1 & X), hold up on the d-pad to get a satellite view of target and then hit R1 to fire missile you can hold it there if you want to watch it blow up. I am glad the save screenshot feature is back. Thanks Gaijin I am going to buy, this is a defining moment for flight fanatics again thanks to these developers.
One thing I like is when you auto hover L3 click, you can hold down bottom d-pad and move right stick and your gun will move with your head and you can fire and zoom. Very well done IMO.
Now if I can just figure out how to fire flares.
