Fresh-

From the sound of it, the flight model will need some serious review and tweaking. If Llan Papini who created 'Micro Flight' can get the flight model right, so can BIS. Micro Flight Let us hope future patches will address the flight model. Many of us look forward to flying in Arma more than anything!

This is really the best news since I can remember. My credit card is burning a hole in my soul. I hope they can implement this thing within a matter of weeks and not months. Can't wait!!!

This post will incur wrath, but I'll post anyways, as an interesting subject matter should always be discussed. In this case the importance of moderation, specifically in view of Armed Assault, which promises to erode our best judgement in regards to how many hours we'll be sucked in. I think most peeps realize the importance of balancing 'play time' with exercise, family and social activities. However, some don't, hence this friendly reminder, especially to the young members of this community. As any OFP addict can attest, hours of lost time staring in a screen can lead to lost productivity, decreased social engagment and often times depression. We all know the feeling of going to bed at 3 am after having played CTI all night. While it's a darn good time, too much sitting in front of a screen killing things does affect the psyche and in the long run does not promote happiness or well being. So, to conclude my post, I hope all of us will play responsibly, especially those of us who are in relationships or have children. Cheers!

A working yet simplified cockpit would be nice. Gauges and radar would be an excellent bonus. Recently I downloaded quite a few choppers for Flight Sim 2004 from Hovercontrol.com . By adjusting some FS2004 settings (when realism is tuned down a notch) I've actually been able to land these, like I can in OFP, except a little more challenging. Some of these helos have sweet hi def functional cockpits and I hope Armed Assault will have something along those lines. We can only hope for a 'virtual cockpit' option which would allow to look around and could be zoomed in or out. This would help significantly in flying Fp while in combat or landing. The way the helo cockpit 'views' worked in OFP were somewhat restrictive as they did not allow for 'panning views'. In any case, I can't wait cause flying in OFP was truly a hoot!!
