And then I would realize that this is perfect, that this is exactly how it was.

One of the very few cases when a developer is justifiably proud of his Artificial Intelligence being dumb!

PS. This all of course depends on AI skill level.
Can you elaborate how AI is detecting bogies? Is it using some FOV scanning routine.. meaning does AI actually have a direction they're looking into based on which they detect only the planes in that cone of sight? Or is it just some function related to proximity etc?

Also will they be making manouvres when flying formation on higher skill levels to scan their six every now and then?

The ground shot is just beautiful in my eyes! My first days of CoD will be just sightseeing high and low, getting the a feel of the new flight dynamics and our new sandbox!
OMG! I can't believe we're this close.. getting a delay beyond March at this stage would probably mean news articles about spontanious simultanious suicides around the globe.
