Hey jm0miami,
Congratulations on your first post, hope there are more to follow! Amazing it took you so long to come 'out of the woodwork'
If you want to wet your toes in online sim play, look for the guys with the compass in their banner, or the ones who have replied to the 'Showing newcomers the way' thread. We'll all be happy to give you an easy entry and doing some training with you, with or without bullets, as you wish.
See you soon!

P.S.: I don't have a doubt about the sequel coming to consoles since the interview.
