Carrier Command 2 is worth checking out, but it’s not action-packed like the trailer, at least in single-player. If you want dogfights I would look elsewhere. There’s a lot of downtime, management, and non-flight play, but also immersive, tense fights and joyful sim-cade destruction. The multiplayer is drop-in and you can play with different configurations of player carriers and AI, or start with lots of equipment, munitions, and blueprints to bypass the logistics tedium. It has Steam workshop mod support and is still slowly getting patches and new features. There was a big update last month with player-buildable defenses. The QT3 thread is over here.
I kinda love it but also felt it was only halfway to being a good strategy game when I played it this spring, and I can’t speak for the multiplayer though I’ve watched quite a bit and do want my friends to pick it up. The price was permanently dropped to $30 this summer.
