Thanks for your time, Anton.
It's a shame so much effort has been, well, wasted on this topic. I, like many here, would like to see a little blackout or redout visual... but at the end of the day, I am FAR more excited about how the game will play.
I mean, seriously, the closest thing I've seen to a sim experience for consoles is Over G Fighters on the 360. I managed to entertain myself for well over a year playing that game on single player only... and there were so many elements missing from that game.
With everything the team has included in this game - the beautiful graphics, the amazing sounds (hello? the crash in that gameplay video sounded spectacular!!!), the planes, the flight models, the missions, the options, etc. - there is nothing, in my humble opinion, that will compete and I made up my mind to buy this on release day a LONG time ago.
You can take out my favorite plane, the P-51, and I will still buy this game because it looks that damn good. I haven't been this excited for a flight game on consoles ever... and why? Because no one has brought this level of realism and detail to a game thus far.
Seriously, some of this bickering needs to end. Anton comes on this forum and has dealt with the highs and lows of "I love this game" and "OMG, deal breaker!" for the simple reason of trying to keep us informed and, perhaps, appeased. He has spent A LOT of time answering our questions... more than most would for other games. Frankly, I'd rather hear some Q&A answers in the other thread... or learn about other details of the game... than read 10 responses from Anton about why blackouts and redouts aren't in the game. His first post should have been enough (at least it was for me).
Title update... next game... whatever. I'm buying this thing and I am going to have a BLAST flying around the skies for a long, long time.
Anton, enjoy your weekend.
