Well I was just wondering do most people use joysticks or mouse, and does it make a big difference?

Joystick all the way.

But there are some very skilled pilots around too who play with M&K.

Joystick...  either one is acceptable with enough practice but imho the joystick is smoother and it allows me to bind keys for a more natural accessability.

I used to use mouse and did fairly well with it, killing, stunts and all, but now I use a joystick and I cant do stunts as well, but the killing is way better

Im finally going to get a joystick, any suggestions on which ones are good and which ones arent, money is not a problem.

I use a joystick since I use it for every other game I fly in.

If you are talking helo, fuck yes.

Keyboard only is the only way to go in helos, but I have to say joystick wins the day for jets. Yes you can be quite good with k/m, but I think joystick still generally comes out on top.
