This game has the one thing I desperately wanted Ace 7 to have: Replayability.

The campaign is extremely replayable (I'm already through it my like 3rd time) since there's no extremely scripted set pieces that's in most of the Ace 7 missions. Also: THERE'S NO TIMER. SWEET BABY JESUS IN YOUR GOLDEN FLEECE DIAPERS THERE'S NO MISSION TIMER YOU CAN TAKE YOUR SWEET TIME I LOVE IT SO MUCH THANK YOU.

That being said this game is WAY lower budget and has corners cut in some ways I'm not a fan of but I totally understand. Two of the biggest that stick out to me are the weird clouds (which I can get over) and the static cockpits. Nothing in the cockpits move other than the radar and the joystick is the same in all of them. Removes a lot of the immersion when none of the dials spin and whir around while you're flailing around like an idiot in the sky. So I just do 3rd person and live with it.

The biggest thing I want from this game/these devs is: MORE. More planes, more mk2 versions in Conquest (mk2 for every basic plane plz), more two seat variants for WSO shenanigans, more variety in conquest missions (like a naval strike one. "fleet strike" is just against airships). And if a sequel comes along with a co-op mode for the campaign and/or conquest I'd be eternally grateful. More oddball planes like the swedish Draken would be fun. And of course the ever lovable Vark.
There's a mod scene that fixes most of these in one way or the other, but it's not quite the same.

All being said I'm vastly enjoying this over Ace 7 just for the few simple reasons I listed above. And I've had that since launch and got all the DLC hoping they'd someday release something like Conquest for it. But alas. :(

Also there's the wrong "it's" used in the thank you message at the end of the campaign and it makes my eye twitch every time.
