Do you realize how many of us have been playing from the first days of Airwarrior and have a few $100 in flight gear so I didn't have use a keyboard.........
Just saying......... the W,A,S,D thing....... sucks
Cavalry
Do you realize that the modern gamer does not normally need all of this equipment and that in order for this game to be more "newbie friendly" there has to be a change? Did it ever occur to you that maybe they realize flying without a stick sucks, and with this economy they might not be able to purchase one right off the bat and that they could at LEAST enjoy themselves in GV's until they save up the money to buy one?
People in a current economic situation such as myself can't even afford to go and buy a simple $20 stick (I got lucky and had someone GIVE me an X52).
This WASD Sucks, Tanks did not have auto transmissions . Who wants to look down at there keyboard even for a second while they a moving in a GV.
Using a Mouse in a flying sim???? Are you kidding me ? How old are we ? That is a joke. I thought flying a plane required some type of Stick? This is looking more and more like a xbox /sony P3 Hardware redered Game rather than a realistic fighter SIM. If the only thing that was intend from this was the realistic turret sites so be it . But the game is ruined for the GVing now . You get stuck going up hills,also its confused if you spawn in to a spot that leaves you on a slant. When you move the turret around I feel like I am waving a shotgun.... All you need are air bags, satellite radio and cup holders now. You can use the squirrels in the trees to give out texting while gving tickets to the apparent 15 yr old's you have programming the code . And whats with the mouse moving my view all around in the Gun positions of a bomber ? The gun used to stay in one spot. Now you get in the thing needs to re calibrate every time you get back to that position .
The biggest joke , A tank still cannot go over a bush . You stop faster than a car hitting the side of cement wall
Here's a thought
Why not allow it to be both ways those that wants the keyboard/mouse (xbox method) and those that want the Joystick Realistic method.
I am done venting
You have to look down at the keyboard to remember where your keys are? Even though they are right next to each other? How long have you been typing? Do you have to look at the keyboard and "chicken peck" your way through every sentence? If so, I'd imagine you'd still be typing up that rage-a-graph."How old are
we?"
That depends on who you talk to. I'm 20 years old, others are older. In their 30's, 40's and 50's + BUT we also have the younger people. You're saying that just because YOU are old enough to make enough money through a job that those who can't must suffer? Wake up."Using a Mouse in a flying sim????" - OMG! Using
tanks in a
flying sim??? - again you fail.
"I thought flying a plane required some type of Stick?" -
you're crying about GROUND VEHICLE options, NOT the PLANE FLIGHT. Flying the plane is the same, just hit the H key...."But the game is ruined for the GVing now . " -
Only for those who are so set in their ways that they can not change and are scared because the playing field is currently even. Everyone is starting over and you're afraid you'll learn it entirely too slow and be left behind."You get stuck going up hills,also its confused if you spawn in to a spot that leaves you on a slant. When you move the turret around I feel like I am waving a shotgun....

Until they fix that issue (which has been addressed), turn and go along the hill. I'd love a radio as I play. Could blast it on a speaker like, Oddball in "Kelly's Heroes". GET SOME"You can use the squirrels in the trees to give out texting while gving tickets to the apparent 15 yr old's you have programming the code ." -
Insulting the devs is a very stupid idea. Why don't you go off and code your own game if you think they are doing such a horrible job. I'd like to see how "AWESOMEEEEEEEE" your crap will turn out to be."And whats with the mouse moving my view all around in the Gun positions of a bomber ? The gun used to stay in one spot. Now you get in the thing needs to re calibrate every time you get back to that position ."
I'm a hardcore buff pilot, I'm in a heavy bomber squad, and this does irritate me, but I also see that this also has been addressed and know that I just need to be PATIENT while they fix it. *points to bug section*"The biggest joke , A tank still cannot go over a bush . You stop faster than a car hitting the side of cement wall " Where in the HELL have you been? It has ALWAYS been this way. This has NOTHING to do with the patch. Again, go do your own coding and make your bushes collapse with this engine.
"Why not allow it to be both ways those that wants the keyboard/mouse (xbox method) and those that want the
Joystick Realistic method."
This has been mentioned by HT himself. BTW - there is nothing realistic about driving a TANK with a joystick, it's as unrealistic as driving with the keyboard. Have you ever been inside a WWII tank? Hell go look at a picture from the inside of one. Being anti-console is one thing, being completely stupid and inapt to change is another."I am done venting" -
You sure? I can keep ripping you apart if you'd like to try again.
