bradleyjs Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Well I’m up and running only after a 30 min download/install. Now, it’ll take me an hour to configure my Warthog HOTAS to work with it... It really threw me for a “Loop” when I launched off the carrier and discovered my left throttle is configured to control the rudders... Happy flying!

Freeroamer Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I wish they would have included the LITENING pod as it would've been a copy paste from the A-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED Team NineLine Posted May 30, 2018 ED Team Share Posted May 30, 2018 I wish they would have included the LITENING pod as it would've been a copy paste from the A-10 The simple answer to this is its never as simple as a copy and paste. Very different systems. ED strives for quality and realism, not taking easy short cuts just for the sake of game play.
