When this game came out, like most, it was unplayable. I just picked it up again and it's been great! The maps feel good, the weapons are balanced and there is plenty of mods to play and nostalgia weapons from past BF's. I'm glad I came back.

All in all, for what is out there on the market for ATC sim games, aside from major money productions like FSX or Prepar3D, this is as good as you can get for now. A lot of comment criticize the game for speech issues. I personaly, speak very fast, and the game never falters. If you use the tutorials to teach your computer how you speak, you should have zero issues. I think those that have issues, are most likely using bad speech combinations that do not work in the game thus equaling bad results.

PROs....multiple airports including heavy traffic havens like KATL, KJFK & KLAX as well as some lighter traffic airports if that's your style. MOST (not all) instructions to handle traffic are correct -- however there is still plenty to be desired for the programmers to fix to take this game to the next level. Very challenging -- it's a ' Make the game the way you want to make it' type of sim.

CONs -- PRO version is built on an old engine and has rather poor graphics for what is available these days for programmers. The development team, however, does respond on the forums if you ask questions, which is ALWAYS a good thing. They have indicated that improvements are coming. Price is a little steep when you have to add in the various DLC's, but for the amount of time you will play after getting addicted to it, I can't knock it down.

OVERALL -- Get it. There are not many games out there that can match this. Even if you're not an aviation fan outright, this may help you develop a new challenge and apprecaition for the job ATC does.
