Good. BF:V sucked. The helicopters were way too easy to fly and didn't give you any control. Felt like "retard mode" had been enabled or something.
The aircraft in DC are sweet. You can really throw the apache/littlebird/gazelle -even the hind to a lesser extent - around allowing you to pull off some sweet moves. I'm talking flipping it upside down, launching an AGM then righting the chopper 5 feet off the ground behind a hill so the vehicle that's about to be nailed can't hit you whilst the missile is en route.
I hate games which 'dumb down' the flying of difficult aircraft, namely helicopters. It took me weeks of practice to get so good with the heli's and I think the advantage this gives you should be encouraged. When little jimmy who's just installed the game can hop in a chopper straight off and be able to use it fine, it makes the game dull. How do you progress?
I was really dissapointed in BF:V and hope BF2 will be as close to the DC style as possible.
I also find the original BF ie WW2 style was pretty dull. When it takes half an hour for a tank to go 1 mile there's so much time wasted just driving to some place. Give me the mirage fighter anytime.
