I have only had the game for a day and I am already an ardent fanatic.

This is the most fun I have had since I got my mits on Bz2 5 years ago.

The scenery is brilliantly done.

The units and buildings are some of the best modelling I have ever seen.

The idea of the rotating service bay is awesome, and the fact that all units automatically return to it for a refit is downright astonishing.

The ATVs are great fun to roam around in, and the Hellcat is awesome to fly around.

The constructor moving around the thing it is building is another plus.

Keep up the awesome work guys.

I hope the airplane becomes flyable in the future.  Currently the player can pilot it, but aiming at ground targets with the aircraft is too difficult due to not having control of your rudders for yawing.  The ai is outright dangerous with the aircraft, why I have no idea, unless they can control yawing unlike the player.

Glad you're liking it bigbadbogie.  It gives me a boost of confidence as we head to the IGF competition Smiley.

@ Commando, it's probably possible to make a more player-friendly airplane.  It would involve tweaking some parameters in the IDF file.  There are many parameters, but the IDF file is quite bare, resulting in many defaults being used.  In a few weeks I'll take a shot at a more flyable airplane, and give you a list of parameters to mess with if you want to tinker.  However I'm not sure if and when we'll have airplanes that can pick up the player like in BZ2.

BSer, one thing I noticed with aircraft.  An airplane will die when it hits the terrain, but it won't die if it collides into a building.
