Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Beautiful, several things to do, good flight models that feels just right, real physics (no cap on velocity as long as you keep burning; only saw it in KSP and Rogue System so far), deep if you care about the company system, real sandbox with an impact on the world, and I have to add that the orchestral music is beautiful and fits perfectly the pleasant ambiance of the game.
