Compared with DCS and BOS this video looks and feels like its a cheap update with some new eye candy

The engine toggle stuff pre-dates skyyr.  You weren't playing the game when hblair did it regularly, along with most of the Luftwhiners of the time.

Not to mention it looked like an early PS2 game to me.

What's the engine toggle thing? Turning it off and on while in combat?
Many of them do that. Only helps a small few.

Yup, closing the throttle was good enough for the rest of us.


And holy crap, I just watched the vid.  Is it 1999 all over again or have I just been too spoiled by MSFS on ultra?
