For my 2p, I would add a few more "very's" to the "very hard" bit.
As for FF, I would have agreed with Fincuan until I was forced to play on a non-FF joystick for a while, and I found that actually the game provides plenty of feedback by other means - mostly audio, and some visual (the cockpit starts to shake and shudder when the plane is pushed hard) and now I can fly without FF just as well as with. It does take some getting used to, though. |
True, but with FF you feel things you cant see. For example, the stalling (You know, when the cockpit starts to shake) starts abit earlier than the screen starts to shake. So, with FF you can feel the spot and fly just under it for best turn speed-wise.
Above that, with FF, you can adjust the stiffness of the spring. This is great for planes that are very sensitive to controls (190, P51 to name few).
Just my 2 cents, I started with a non-FF stick, and now have FF one, wouldnt change it to anything! (Tho, I'm thinking of ordering the X52 in the end of the month. :hmm
