for the hardcore
The user created content linked in some of the other reviews is very nice, if you get this game, do get the mods, they're very nice. This is will be a five star game for you if you like very challenging flight models. If you enjoy "middle of the road" flight sims, somewhere between simulation and arcade....look elsewhere. I got my 6 bucks worth just getting the hang of flying in free flight...with a great deal of frustration, and some reward when I finally got the hang of it. As other reviewers have mentioned, there is no tutorial, so if you not prepared to read the manual, and crash and burn repeated while you learn the ropes, this game isn't for you. Flying in combat is extremely challenging. I just couldn't keep the thing in the air while dodging sams and AAA...usually I crashed trying to get low and out of sight, my usual tactic when I played the dcs blackshark (I played that in game mode, but with some options turned on). Want a hardcore heli sim? This game is for you. Like more moderate simulation? I can't say this is your cup of tea. Like more arcade game you can just jump in and play? Stay away.
