Great modern flight sim. Dinamic campaign delivers a different experience.

I loved this game because it wasn't all about just taking off, completing the mission and then landing back again. Iceland is diveded into territories that according to how you complete your missions will be taken over or defended by either faction (NATO or Russia). So if you fail a mission, more or likely Russia will take over the territory you were supposed to fly over because you didn't destroy the tanks that were attacking. This dinamically affects you because you can choose to take off from any airport in iceland, but you need to watch out that it doesnt get attacked and taken over. Plus if you get shot down and bail out, you might land in enemy territory and your pilot might get captured and sent to a prison camp for a while. It depends on his skill if he will survive torture and manage to escape to fly missions again.
The game also has adjustable time settings, you can pause it, fast forward it or even fast forward many hours ahead.
The only let back i can think of is that sometimes the missions are quite repetitive. Sometimes i was asked to destroy a tank column in the same territory about 3 times. I guess because the whole game is random every time you decide to play a new campaign it just picks out whatever territory it picks.
Another thing is the air to ground attacks, somehow, for some bug or error, tanks dont always blow up when you hit them with your missles so you'll end up running out of them and fail the mission. Even if you get most of them and leave about one or two tanks, it'll say the mission was failed and you'll just lose another territory.
All in all i think this is quite a good flight sim. Good for people that are just looking for some fun and arent really sim geeks. The usual flight sim nowdays is just a bunch of long flights and short dogfights with repetitive objectives. This game adds some more surprise to the whole thing, and a dinamic campaign going on. At times an inexpected new high tech enemy fighter or spy plane will be attacking you and you'll have a hard time bringing it down.
But all in all a good game. Bad only for those frustrating bugs that happen quite often.
