F18 Pilot Simulator App Reviews

Too difficult to control. Sluggish

Dont be fooled by the 5 star reviews from the developers and their family. This game is junk, clunky, and ugly!

Its pretty clear the 5-star reviews are devs and their friends. Graphics dont match the screenshots. Physics are terrible--feels more like a glider sim than what should be a nimble fighter. Controls fade immediately so you have to tap to bring them up, while trying to land--absurd. Throttle resets on fade. No settings or options. I would go on, but hopefully Ive convinced you. Move along, nothing to see here.

Fun little brief time killer. It certainly didnt take me long to make perfect landings on the deck. I found it very easy and simplistic. Once youve mastered the landings theres not much interest for me in it anymore. It would be nice if you could go fly some missions to keep the interest up.

This game is a complete waste if my money dont buy it this Game has terrible graphics and terrible controlling is y ask me. This game is so derpy and simple there are hardly and sound affects!

Theyve all been listed by several people yet nothing gets changed...

I really would love to play thus game but I cant even get on. It crashes whenever I get on.

Cool game bro

Adjustments made to operational performance to improve sustained flight. More training without delay

This game is so real that it is very cool. You land on an aircraft carrier.

This is just terrible!

Just extremely disappointing. For solely being a carrier landing sim missing some incredibly crucial components to carrier landing such as no AOA indicator, understanding youre supposed to be aiming for the 3rd and not 4th wire, just needs a huge physics overhaul (sometimes you drift completely over the deck going 140 kn and others Im falling out of the sky at 180 kn) Clearly there are some reviewers boosting this games score because the only point of this game is to land and the landing sequence is horribly broken.

It would be nice if you could fly with others online. Not for the gamers.

This game isnt "difficult" because it takes a lot of skill to master, its difficult because the physics are out of wack. If you come in the correct angle of the (should be) glide slope, its too steep and you break the arresting cables. If youre shallow enough to not break them, you land early and lose points. And it says youre supposed to engage the throttle when you land but 100/100 times itll snap the cables. Plus the controls disappear so you have to constantly tap the screen to control speed/flaps while looking in the top left corner for your speed. Stupid. Theres no possible way to get a score about 85. FTG.

I have no idea how anyone is supposed to be able to reach and control all the things on the iPad, while keeping the accelerometer steady. The really need to completely re-design the controls UI for this one. Which should be a very, very easy and fast thing to do.

Why do i have to pay for the game an a new plane.

Good game, realistic simulation. A real challenge

I downloaded the current updated version and purchased the new plane to fly. Ever since I have done that, the app crashes every time I try to proceed to the choose a plane section. I have deleted the app and re-installed it with no avail. Please correct this issue in an update. Other than this issue this is a great game to play when its working correctly

Hard to play but fun

Improved by last update but controls still seem sluggish at times then over sensitive at others. Controls for gear and brake should be moved to allow player easier access. Top of screen location causes player to reach and thus tilt the iPad causing the plane to depart from flight path. Significant elevator input is required to stay on glide scope and avoid stall. Great looking game, just needs additional tweaks to polish it into a great sim.
