What players say
Players are sharply divided. Many praise the authentic simulation and nostalgic value, calling it rewarding after the steep learning curve. But a loud group calls it a buggy mess, with AI that crashes on landing, broken escorts, and updates that slow to a crawl, one reviewer with 40 hours says a mission was lost when the entire squadron exploded on the runway.
