Beware, this game's purported VR mode is a non-functional mess at present. -The VR menus are crap: They're tied to your headset like a really poorly implemented HUD. Making them, literally, a physically uncomfortable chore to navigate. -VR sound is there.. in spirit. I only heard the title screen theme song for a couple moments. All other sounds were a muffled distant garble..the airshow announcer in the story mode's intro stage was like trying to listen to someone talking from across a football field, while you've got earplugs in. I couldn't tell you what it was like to try flying a plane in VR. The game doesn't allow you to progress through the intro stage if you're playing in VR, because they didn't even program in context interaction controls. Maybe someday the devs will get this title up to what they advertise it as. But at present (as of 12/31/2021), how they advertise the game, in both gameplay videos and descriptions, is VERY misleading.
Even if i've only played for an hour, hear me out. The sense of speed in this game is AMAZING. I haven't attacked anything yet, but you dont even have to do that to have a good time. Simply flying around is incredible enough. The controls are a bit finnicky, but great for the most part.

Rocky start but has potential
Yes, this is early access, yes work is being done on it, but it shouldn't be permitted to submit a game for paid Early Access when the fundamentals of the game do not work. Non-VR Review: I went into this not expecting anything amazing and I wasn’t disappointed. The opening “airshow” was absolutely spectacular, not the scripted sequence of the show itself, the fact the 3 planes spawned in the sky from nowhere and instantly slammed into the runway, exploding in a ball of fire as the announcer exclaims “Just look at the skill and coordination of our pilots!”. Next we were treated to ragdoll physics on a epic scale with bodies rocketing across the room at the slightest touch. Then finally, after being the only “volunteer” to be trusted with saving the world where the skilled and coordinated pilots previously failed, we’re asked to go and recover weapons for our plane. Invisible weapons apparently as they failed to spawn, meaning, yes you guessed it, this is a fighter jet sim, with 0 weapons! Then we get in the plane and are asked to flip various switches to power everything up and set the coordinates into our nav map……the coordinates, where are ethe coordinates, hello coordinates? At this stage you will do 1 of 4 things 1) Bail out, uninstall and use the Hide option in your Steam library to mask the shame of trying this – this is the preferred option. 2) Put any old number in as coordinates, it’ll accept it. 3) Get bored and just take off. At some point you’ll be playing with the displays and hit another button on the display that shows you more information including the word coordinates next to a set of familiar numbers you’ve seen somewhere else. 4) Somehow, using the power of the Gods themselves, figure out that the numbers at the top right of your screen marked “UPGRADES” that have been there since the start, are in fact a set of coordinates. The controls, oh the controls. Your options are mouse and keyboard, oh your fancy HOTAS may be detected and let you bind it in the controls menu, but no, you can’t actually use it. So mouse and keyboard it is and what a system it is. Mouse sensitivity so high you’re doing 90 degree turns instability, missing keybind options for plane functions and a throttle with 0 indication of how much you’re set to which makes landing most fun. I never actually landed successfully, the 1st attempt my mouse was in flight mode when I expected it to be head-look mode (no indication of which mode you’re in anywhere) and my plane 360’d across the runway and slid off to its doom. Oh did I forget to mention the runways are floating? This pirouette of death was all because I moved the mouse during landing to look at, and use the brake handle (no key-bind for it, how ironic). Other landing attempts failed due to being unable to gauge your speed because of the aforementioned lack of throttle details. Oh you may also get engaged by an enemy plane and simply die because no weapons, who’d have thought. TLDR: Avoid until significant work done unless you’re making comedy videos.

Just taken a quick look and I am liking what I see....full review incoming.
I'll be real I can't fly for ♥♥♥♥, but had fun trying to figure it out, bit easier to get the hang of than other games like DCS. Bought the game to play with the Quest 2 and runs pretty well, very immersive when I got the hang of it. Would like to see some more combat implementation and hope the dev keeps updating it.
Some really cool ideas and an amazing sense of scale. The VR aspect has improved a lot since the beginning and I'm glad I got in early on this journey. Great work for a solo dev.
Very similar to VTOL VR in complexity but has a nice sandbox for you to fly around and fight in. The obital stuff that has just been added shows pretty good promise and cant wait for it to be abit more fleshed out! While the negative review status does look bleak, I don't feel it is representative of the current game.
Terrible Terrible Terrible!!! Runs worse than an elderly woman with no legs, doesn't even tell you whats going on or what your doing. The game dose not even start you in the aircraft and you half to walk around for an hour to find it and then spend 10 minuets trying to figure out how to get in it and then another 10 trying to adjust your seat to make it feel like your actually sitting there. The sound quality is trash. And then when i finally got flying if i moved my hands around in the cockpit even just a little or to touch something else every switch in the cockpit would flip. If your looking for a realistic fighter or aircraft simulator for VR then go to VTOL VR. 0/10 would not recommend
这种能进抢先体验? 在搞笑吧? 10年前的画质。 bug更是数不胜数. 连进去教学的前后左右键都要自己绑定。
