, the most obvious place to start is the performance on this Switch version and whether it impacts gameplay.
In short, the performance both visually and in terms of the framerate is surprisingly good and doesn’t affect how the game plays. The framerate is very solid for the most part and rarely dips at all, even in the heat of dogfighting, and the visuals are also handled well. On the latter, you get a bit of aliasing on some of the edges of your plane and the levels of detail are more basic, with the “pop in” more like a fade in at close range with things like trees on the ground.was definitely a high-performance game in 2019, so to have a comparable Switch version 5 years later is unexpected but very much welcomed.The gameplay is a mix between simulation and arcade, with more emphasis on the latter. Missions are long and involved, as well as varied.
Online multiplayer, with up to 8 players, is also present and correct, with the netcode working well on the Switch. Admittedly, I seem to playing against mostly Japanese players , so I can’t say how well the netcode does with more international players and greater lag times. For me, it worked fine and matches were fun as well as suitably intense.on Switch is as good as it was back in 2019. The performance of the game is also surprisingly good and it plays pretty much identically.
