Opinion again.

Maybe you should take off your blinders and read Luthiers answers again.

Blind? Not.

I mean flight AI, not radio comms or speech, but flying.

2. Lastly has there been any progress on making the AI work and fly like we would expect or are we stuck with either barrel rolls or no reaction at all?
It already does a lot more than barrel rolls or no reaction.

Stop saying it will be fixed in sequel and mixing fact and opinion. Ilya does not think it is broken, he only is speaking about comms and speech. In my opinion.

Its not my problem you can't discern a fact from an opinion in a forum that is 99% opinion. You only have a problem with it, because it doesn't agree with your opinion.

I agree with Luthier, "it already does a lot more than barrel rolls or no reaction" Infact I find the AI alot harder to shoot down in COD than any other WW2 combat flight sim because of their evasive maneuvers. Although the damage model is part of that equation. Infact if they only did barrel rolls they would be easier to shoot down. That said, I think it should be easier that it currently is. I don't know if its a damage model issue or any other factor.

Most of the AI's poor flying wouldn't happen if they followed orders. This is a very important fix, I'm sure the devs are looking at. They wouldn't fly into the ground so much if they weren't trying to stay in formation.

Thankyou for your admission that they are not working on the AI as you stated they were. It is nice to see someone admit they were wrong. I respect that kind of thing. And I respect your opinion on the AI, though I am different opinion on that. There are hundreds of posts here from people complaining about the combat AI, which believe is much better in modded 1946, and even an old sim like BOB2 has superior better AI, not even comparable. Tho you admit you don't fly this sim anymore, and I do, and so far I have 370 hours on the sim, all of in single player, so I feel confident in saying this about the AI compared to 1946 and BOB2. It is hard to take an opinion on the AI from someone who says they dont fly the sim! (Why do people even post here when they don't even play the game, that I do not understand? Oh well, it is your life to waste) The only way to get it even respectable is to adjust settings in full mission builder and that should not be necessary. It should be possible to make mission in quick mission that is also enjoyable, but now it is not. Oh well, since they don't fix it, we are stuck with what we got.
