Being one of those burnt by the 1st PC game in this series I have to ask a few questions.

Does this game support joysticks to actually work properly and can they be configured (those from BA 1 will understand)? I have already seen one post regarding control options
http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/6431062565/m/2721050985

Did the devs take the time to actually test the game with a variety of joysticks?

Is there rudder control?

How will the PC co-op look and play?

Is this a straight port (like the first game in the series that caused so many problems as well as disappointment for PC gamers) or was some time taken to develop a properly functioning PC game this time?

And as one has already asked--PC DEMO --when?

Thanks

Yes.

4 players, special missions just for co-op, cool graphics.

Not sure.

Thanks, I forgot one though.

Will MP work this time?

Even with the positive answers, I will wait for a Demo.

As Agent Fox Mulder has said "Trust No One."

Multi-player has undergone a lot of improvements in this version, including techie stuff like server migration, increased player limit, etc.

Much bigger maps, new types of missions, solid Live! support (with rewards and Leaderboards in the Xbox360 version), airplane color customization, and a lot of other fun stuff. The main idea was to design MP in such a way that people would actually want to stay and play.

Greetings everyone:

I think that BA2 would get a lot more PC online love if it was supported by the GameSpy Arcade application. Just my 2 cents on the matter.

Blud_E_Gutz did you used to play a ton of CS back in the day?

Anyway the game is good fun, works with my joystick like a charm although I needed the logitech profiler to adjust sensitivity etc.

hi blud ive been tempted to buy this game for the pc im sure ive a joystick or control pad that will work played the xbox 360 demo and it was fun but i want it for pc,
but reading that the multiplayer is dead then its not worth buying it as multiplay is what i want it for.
as u already know a few of us tryed to get ba1 mutiplay going and it failed each time my feeling is that this will be the same,
so i gonna wait and see if online picks up
