If you like realism, yes, it’s an awesome game. It may take you several hours though before you can successfully land an F16 for example. But once you get it right, it’s very rewarding.

Visually stunning as well, I get around 90fps on average on an (older) 2080TI.

You can trial modules for 2 weeks and then decide if you want to purchase.

The community is amazing and helpful.

The game has amazing depth and a steep learning curve. If studying a flight manual for twenty or thirty minutes at a time to learn some real-life subsystem and then trying out whatever you learned in a fully simulated fighter plane sounds like fun to you, then you’re going to have a blast (pun intended).

To me, the biggest draw backs are spending so much time and money (planes and maps are not cheap) immersing yourself in a game that may never run more than 30 FPS and crashes from time to time. There’s also the frustration of being a true “sim”, where you know you put that guided rocket straight down the throat of that SAM launcher, but he’s still alive and shooting because he has 23% health.

See you in the skies!
