I'm not an expert, although your point makes sense. But I get the impression that in this day and age that to avoid a missile, a pilot relies n chaff and flares and ECMs.

Is this laziness on the part of air forces training or simply a reliance on electronics. Having watched the red arrows many times, Im sure the pilots are capable of impressive manouvers.

The counter measures are far more advanced and capable today, but so are the missiles.  The day may well come when a pilot will be flying for his/her (maybe) life and the ability of their aircraft to maouver will be vital.

So what is the forecast on the new game?

This is the point I've made here when people complain that Vstep hasn't 'kept them up to date'. Compared to the rail sims, they have.

Kuji are keeping people guessing so much that the discussion group is more or less dead- yet the occasional video shows ome really good work- I think they have woken up recently to how people are losing interest in it.

Yes, the devs need to realize it is driving gamers nuts and often they go to the companies that inform them and keep them excited about the product.

I agree, anticipation needs to be met with some juicy bits of information .  Vstep have done that in my opinion, keeping us very interested in development, instead of keeping us almost in the dark (like other developers).

If I was wearing a hat, I would take it off to Vstep

Dave you make a good point about companies that DON'T keep potential customers informed- just look at some of the railsim developers (not mentioing k*ji by name).

But vstep HAS kept people informed- which is never a bad PR thing. The videos of today are superb and I'm going to buy a new PC ready... just on the strength of those photos.
