OT Arma 3 has a really good Commanche

The new graphics in ARMA 3 are stunning and the choppers are great fun to fly in and die in! Great to go out killing everything.

How are the flight dynamics of the aircraft?

Pretty average, maybe FSX default-ish? They haven't implemented the final advanced flight model developed from ToH yet AFAIK, but it's a wide scoped mil-sim focusing on ground combat, so I'm not expecting Dodosim level of detail, much as I would love it!

Must be nice to have the beta. I agree, the graphics look stunning, looking forward to the underwater environment myself. Visually this is everything I wish Ghost Recon could be, because I like the gameplay better in GRAW, but will definitely be getting this in sept.

Arma series has the most user unfriendly interface in the history of games. Makes IL2 seem like Pacman. Great looking screenies but you need the fingers of Eddie Van Halen or spend hours setting up elabaorate bindings to probably fly and fight with the heli.

Very interesting, Barnes! Is the Helmet-Mounted Display simulated, hopefully with a collimated flight path marker? And what is on board in terms of sensors?

I think your find its really easy now or I would not have had the patience!

Flight dynamics are "adequate" It actually is better than some FSX models I have bought but don't expect too much - its about killing tanks etc that its all about.

Yes you also effect rising smoke as you go through.

A good assessment - agreed.
