Oh, man! Oh, man! This is freak'n awesome. Waiting for this mod is getting more and more painful.  Awesome work, guys!

The only real gripe I have is that the fighters move too slow and their handling looks quite sluggish. But that might be because of the nature of this type of game. Too many players online and there could very well be some serious lag. Hope not. lol

I think its already been said somewhere that they feel, look, and are moving alot faster when your actually playing, but the movie makes them look slower...

Woodrow always uses this to explain to us stubborn testers:

You can't really judge something until you have a point of reference to judge it against. And seeing as we have no physical points of reference such as a passing-by planet in the trailer, no one can really judge until you actually play.

Ok I'll ask this. Going by the speedometer in Gunships from vBF2142, how fast do X-wings and tie fighters generally go?
