Joysticks were always important to some in BF2 and vital to flying jets like a boss. You guys that haven been playing so far do you think a joystick would give an edge or what? I'm thinking about buying one.

This may sound weird but I find the best thing for flying is an Xbox 360 controller.  $30 and the drivers are built into windows 7.  They are even pre-mapped in game from the console version.

since we cant test in an empty server trying to work out stick controls is beyond frustrating. I might have to give into the 360 controller idea. I tried to get used to kb/mouse  and arrow keys but I have used a stick way too long to adjust

I can vouch for the xbox controller idea. After playing numerous hours in the Ace Combat series, the flying just comes naturally. It works quite well.

I got my stick working!  you just have to ignore the fact that it puts controller names in for your binds and change the stupid inverted stuff.  I can stay on just about nayones tail now but it is also hard as hell to shake a good pilot and survive. I need a wingman!

The inability to not test your controls for a jet is something I hope they fix in an upcoming patch.

I got a Saitek x52 plugged it in and couldnt kill shit with it in bf2. Kept on flying into trees and the ground. Unplugged after a hour and reconfigured settings to mouse and keyboard and proceeded to go 50-0 for the rest of my bf2 life in jets. Joysticks suck cox n dix unless ur playing a flight sim.

Got a x52 as well. I can't imagine playing BF2 without it.

Those X52 joysticks are really nice. I've had mine for about 5 years and done ALLOT of flying with it and it still works great!
You should consider selling it if you are not ever going to use it.
