I've played the game for a few hours total so far, and my initial impression hasn't changed. The game just does not play at the same speed as other flight sims I've done. It's far, far more fast twitch and difficult to target while getting swarmed. Why is that, because the enemies you face move incredibly fast and turns on dimes. While I can appreciate that ability, it's annoying as all hell. I really, really wanted to play this game with my controller. This game is impossible to succeed at with a controller because the enemies move and turn so radically. If you're looking for an X-wing, Tie Fighter type experience, this isn't it. It's pretty, there's some good concepts in there. Just that the actual gameplay when dealing with the multitudes of fighters on you is terrible. It's never 1v1, it's always at least 3v1. Others may like it, but I do not and regret getting sucked in with the glowing reviews.
