Have this game myself. Tis good craic but low frame rates.

Turned everything up to max on Frodo's 8800 GTX and it still crawled - talk about resource hungry!

Hmm.... it looks half decent. Being playing Comanache4 for the past while, so I may get this. Any hacks to allow military aircraft? WAR

Also, is there an online thing for this, or is it just you and the PC?

Combat flight simulator is you want fighting.

Also, it has this shared skies thingum. Basically everyone can log in to a session with possibly one person been ATC while the rest go about their flights. It's kinda cool.

The vid Ranger posted basically showed the multiplay.

Seeems like a pretty decent trailer alright. Thats cool about the one person being ATC. one question, do people actually listen to the ATC, or that person is just there amusing themself and people can listen and obey if they want?
