I've been looking for a good-to-great flight simulator since IL-2 and this looked promising.  Has anyone played it?  Any particularly cool videos that display the complexity of the controls or details on what kind of joysticks would be compatible?  Thanks in advance!

Yes and I'd definitley recommend it if you've enjoyed any realistic flight simulator. Here are some developer made tutorial videos that give you a good idea of how complex the game can be (though you can make things easier in the options if its too complex). As for joysticks, most should be compatible as you can set custom controls. The important thing is to get a joystick that has a throttle lever as you'll struggle without one. You should probably check on the official forums but I know the MSFF2, X45, X52, cougar and CH sticks all work fine with the game.

Highly recommended from me.  I got a CH Fighterstick, throttle, and pedals for Christmas and they work great with Blackshark.  You should definitly have a stick thats got a rudder twist or some pedals.  For everything else I agree with Apex, especially watching those videos.
