Hamma? I know we're dealing with arcade physics and some kind mouse+kb control scheme, but please tell me that the aircrafts aren't all or nothing thrusters. A throttle is pretty big-time important, I think.

I'm not sure. Wait for Hamma I guess. I agree with you about thrusters and I think that they're planning on supporting joysticks for flight.

Wonder if he even noticed while aiming himself into the water :p.

I think they'll handle thrusters well. They've mentioned that air vehicles will handle like helicopters so I think they'd allow different amounts of thrust. Not just 0% or 100%, that'd make it hard to fly

There were afterburners, and normal speed when I played. No real "throttle"

I dont know if it will be that way upon beta/release

Well, I guess low and high are better than all or nothing, but I really would like to see more refinement in aircraft controls for release.
