AI is on top of my list

This is a very long thread and I have not read it all...so I hope I'm not repeating an idea.

But, I would LOVE any, and all, of the effort that the team will put into the "AI". And "off line" play...

I could make a long list of behavior that I would love to see the "AI" exhibit, but the bottom line is...I would love to be surprised by the "AI". I would love to have the "AI" behave in unpredictable (sometimes), and yet understandable ways. People have already commented on improving the mechanics of "AI" flight...some feel that the "Sturmovik 1946" "AI" is smoother.

I'm intrigued by the idea of, "AI" that can "learn" from its opponent. Imagine flying against "AI" pilots that remember you...and (maybe) remember your favorite tactics.

1++

After making the game look and sound great, the real flight simulation and immersion comes from the way the combat is simulated. The dev team really needs to fine tune this aspect you feel like you are flying against a person rather than a robot on acid and red bull.

I agree with the above.

Would it be too much to ask for an AI that abides by the laws of physics? Now the game might as well be called "Spitfires vs Aliens", or "Messerschmitts vs Aliens".

That would be the first step towards an enjoyable single player mode.

2) make radio commands work.

3) add some content. a dynamic campaign and/ or a more complex mission builder.
