Lets be honest it would appear at this stage, prior to its release, that this game is going to set a new bench mark for flight games on consoles. That is all I ask. We may be abe to get pickier on the second edition but for now the guys that have made this game have poured untold millions of dollars and tens of thousands of hours into a game that if unsuccessful may ruin their company. I for one want every espect to be perfect but even if it is missing a few things the first time around, I am extremely excited and very grateful for the work they have done.

That isnt a little detail. that is a major effect of pulling high Gs. a little detail is the gauges arent in the right place, or the trees look too green. Its not a flight simulator if it isnt simulating flight, and if you dont black out when u pull major G's it isnt a flight simulator... its.. Blazing Angles or battlestations pacific or something

A flight simulator does NOT require Blackouts/Redouts. yes it may provide an extra added reality to the game but is not in the slightest necessary.

So please dont say this game is Blazing angels or battlestations pacific, because they just dont fall into the same category.

You could use the argument that a game can't be a flight sim without blackouts/redouts to say that a game can't be a flight sim without players having to go through twenty or so steps to start the engine, because if you are missing either you aren't completely simulating flight.

Jesus, if the game gets delayed coz of whining little perfectionists like you there'll be hell to pay. Just be thankful the game is coming. It's a huge gamble to take for any developer to bring this type of game to consoles. Show some damn gratitude.

And Anton, your vomit comment was priceless. Good on you mate.
