Okay, so you noticed the Sidewinders being screwy too? I thought that was just me. I can see their challenges for sure with things as there really is no previous code to reference. What I have seen so far is the controls seem to porpoise when you release any pressure, the sidewinder problems, spongy suspension, lack of brake friction, damage model, landing with bombs on center will cause immediate explosion and people have complained about the external lights.
Not going to be critical as for a first swipe, this thing is hellaciously fun. I've always loved the Scooter. Now I wish I could get enough of a team together to do the Skyraider!
