F4 fought out the entire war in real time for air and ground, and included factors such as resupply and the like.

Nothing touches what F4's campaign engine could do, or even close realy
I just wish F4 was as user-friendly and F3 was; F4 just didn't seem to "flow" for me like F3 did - I probably had more hours in the F3 Falcon than some active duty pilots. F4 felt clunky and awkward... to me, at least.

I liked F3:OFT (Operation Fighting Tiger) - that campaign was also fought "real time" - you could fly down in the mud and see ground combat going on.
