I see that accurate simulations are taking a backseat to the eye-candy and instant gratification type games. Aces High provides a player with little eye-candy, but great challenges, because the flight physics are high, and are challenging, and require an individual to actually learn something about flight, and flying, versus learning how to use macros and cheat codes on a controller.

Is this about the game used or the guy that is doing this for the vets? Because it seems to me no matter what he is using to do it he is at least doing something that these vets seem to enjoy.

I feel dirty even going to his site, but I will make a post to the effect of calling them out on supporting a foreign company with an inferior product compared to a domestic, Texas small business.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Posted.

This could be great. I bet War Thunder spents tens of thousands to get Glen Beck to endorse it. Most media is for sale. Those morning shows where they are at some random bakery making cookies, $5k for that coverage. They didn't choose the bakery because it smells good.

Flood the boards and get free advertising for AH!

The only way this could get better is if it somehow ended up on war blunders site.
