Simulation Mode + Multiplayer = Cockpit & virtual cockpit?

everyone is entitled to their opinion...

with the cockpits its relative, but I reckon the more you use a cockpit, the more you wanna stick with it...the virtual is great for field of view, but there are aspects of intuitive play that require a cockpit for correct orientation...
its a bit like drive sims, I'm quicker with a bonnet view, but drivers seat view is so much more rewarding...plus the instruments are handy...

Exactly! +1 Good car analogy.

I find the cockpit much easier to remain orientated. I often forget which direction my plane is facing when looking at a target in virtual cockpit...

i hope the dlc with the german planes come soon and i hope its free because we deserve to get them not pay 10 euros more only for cockpits we already had to have in the beginning

yeah same here, I only tried the virtual cockpit once and hated it. I actually like third person (when not in sim mode obviously) because you get to see a lot more of the action, and the damage system looks great.

But I've got no problem with cockpit view either, and I can use it just as effectively.
