That is what has SO many up in arms. Absolutely NOTHING was mentioned about playstation unlocks hampering the ability to fly stuff, particularly in the multiplayer, when they were asking for backers. It was a huge surprise when this policy was announced just shortly before launch, well into the backers early access program, in fact, right near the end of it. Had I put in 100$ and then been given such a hugely lame "surprise" I wouldn't like it either. I was never into the IL2 thing, I bought Il2 BoB for 10$ on steam sale just to try out the TF mod, which isn't too bad for a 10$ game, but to spend 100$ and get the unlock thing, especially as a backer and - well not being lied to per se, but absolutely being given a feature that is such a large factor without having been told about it until right at the end after investing already.....
It would be on order of Star Citizen right now taking in the millions of dollars from folks, and then making an announcement right before the official launch that you can't fly the 150$ ship you bought until you progress through about 50 hours of gameplay and unlocks to access it. Ya, that would have me angry, for sure.
