it's fun. You can get into how "Real" Sim is or Realistic but I think it does an amazing job of being as accurate as possible. High Tier jets are in an odd state at the moment. I recognize that it was EXTREMELY difficult to dodge FOX 3's before patch- but at least they were more realistic. I like how much effort they put into all ordinance types. An RMA update would be cool, but it's awesome to see everything from low tier to top tier A2A ordinance respond accurately. Some tank rounds could use some updates and I think Naval is the most "Unrealistic". Every ship, from tier 2+, with shells on target would cause massive damage. 205MM Rounds are 205MM Rounds. You don't get plastered by 50 of them and take a damage smoke stack XD
