Great Casual Sim!
FIRST: THANK YOU FOR THE FREE UPDATE!! The new terrain is fantastic, especially at night!
REVIEW:
This game is sort of a mix between arcade and sim flying, leaning slightly more towards the sim side. You can play with many controls you wouldn’t expect from something not as “heavy” as games like FSX. The flight planning and controls are pretty straight forward and fun to set up. The incident/emergency/career gameplay mode is a lot of fun as well where you test your skill by figuring out how to resolve various system malfunctions.
And despite a few flaws, I more often find myself opening this game up over the bigger sims I own. I can start it up, get my flying fix for an hour or two and not spend forever setting everything up.
THINGS IT NEEDS:
- The flight planning map: HOW DO I ZOOM?! It occasionally works, then later I get nothing. What am I doing wrong?
- More planes, liveries, etc…
- A better input setup UI. Not being able to clear the current hotkey is infuriating, and I often end up setting multiple hotkeys for one control when this should be detected and the old one removed. At least expand the tableview, I hate horizontal scrollbars!
- I would absolutely love some sort of customization/mod support (save you guys the extra work!), but I realize that might not be economically feasible for a smaller game/studio possibly wanting to release DLC.
