    Still, there’s plenty more to keep them satisfied, and the game’s rough presentation and slightly disappointing campaign are easy to forgive when the basic gameplay is so solid.

    It is enjoyable just as how is unstable. And boy it is unstable.
    It can and will crash while you play it, the campaign feels half coocked,    It is enjoyable just as how is unstable. And boy it is unstable.
    It can and will crash while you play it, the campaign feels half coocked, the ai is terrible, kinda broken and tends to crash itself to the ground, the sound is buggy and the machine gun sounds will destroy your ears.
    However the gameplay is solid, you can manually unlock any plane you want by messing around with the planes folder, it has a lot of mods brought up by the community and its quick action mode is thrilling. There is a lot of wasted pottential and its infuriating when it crashes or when you find something broken, but i genuinely enjoyed it. Grab it on sale though. And play it with a cotroller, that way you can properly enjoy the gameplay.    … Full Review »

    This game had a great potential to be an ace combat clone with cell shading and good gameplay. Unfortunately the developer has lost interestThis game had a great potential to be an ace combat clone with cell shading and good gameplay. Unfortunately the developer has lost interest about halfway through the project, turned to pumping out thousands of aircraft that all look the same; instead of fixing major bugs and updating the story. Even with the new planes, only 8 are playable in campaign. Suffice to say... this game is a cautionary tale of what happens to early access games.… Full Review »
