Just a though but, it's kinda redundant to have to click Fight twice for a mission, and on top of that the Play button in the Battlefield View. Once is quite enough, and the Play button should be on by default. The Pause option is rather nice for getting better acquainted with the enemy but when click Fight I'm rather inclined on fighting. Perhaps the Story can be displayed in another fashion, a Lorebook or something of the like?

Finally, he decided to land, after collecting 8.888.25 dollars, having reached 54558 feet, with a flight time of 1:25:33.84 and earning 248,912,076.1 dollars total.
I didn't event play the bloody game!
