Derbysieger 11 Posted October 27, 2011 It really looks very good. Played the first missions already. It looks fun. And I just crashed the Marine One into a Skyscraper. Damn I killed the Präsident :eek: Big thank you, BIS and congrats to an excellent game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProfTournesol 956 Posted October 27, 2011 Congrats BIS, i wish you good luck (and euros) with this new release. i'm still waiting for a "Take On(e) Csech Beer" simulation game :803: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maddogx 13 Posted October 27, 2011 i'm still waiting for a "Take On(e) Csech Beer" simulation game :803: And its immediate sequel "Take Another On(e)". :D @Topic: Indeed, kudos and congratulations to BIS for what is shaping up to be a unique, challenging and fun PC game. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggyluv 2136 Posted October 27, 2011 Yup, good stuff here. This year I've bought Deus Ex 2, RO2, Crysis 2, BF3 and Take On. Only RO2 and Take On Beta have I played more then a few hours. Originally I bought it just to support BI, but now I'm actually considering buying a joystick (Don't like playing with auto-trim) and really enjoying this game.

EricM 0 Posted October 27, 2011 Just Bought the game. Not sure I'll ever master it as I'm not that much of a sim guy myself (Arma 2 choppers were just fine for me), but I want to support BIS for their great initiatives, and who knows maybe someday I'll be able to get rid off all the helpers...

zoog 18 Posted October 27, 2011 Yes, congrats BIS with this awesome game! Just flew the first couple of missions in the career. Awesome :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fboes 10 Posted October 27, 2011 Yes, this is really a masterpiece (me being a old rotorhead and flying almost every heli-sim from Gunship (Commodore C=64) on). I really love the balance between simulation and story-telling, combined with some tinkering on my helicopter. It's like the missing link between Sim Copter and Black Shark. My first acquisition: doors! It was way to windy in my chopper. Now should I buy the better skid steps…? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_michal 10 Posted October 27, 2011 I did all tutorials (and failed on autorotations :D), took few free flights, and love it. Congratulations on release and thank you guys for great game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rundll.exe 12 Posted October 27, 2011 I was totally surprised that it was released already, and bought it on sprocket the next minute. Congrats on the release, and Im sure I'll enjoy thisone! (never played a flightsim more then 15 min before). Ill report back when it's installed. (13GB wtf?!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whiskeytango 11 Posted October 28, 2011 Congrats. Played it for a couple of hours. Lots of fun! Voice acting is much improved! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scarmax 10 Posted October 28, 2011 It'll be "great" when they issue a patch to fix the blatant fucking bugs. Day one of full version release and it's unplayable for more than 10 minutes at a time because a memory leak causes it to crash to desktop every time. You also can't change the difficulty level in Free Flight mode. Take On Disappointment. :mad: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

9thAircav 0 Posted October 28, 2011 (edited) yeah ! couple of hours of dabble and im really quite taken, it works well ,the idea the concept etcetra. Iam a DCS user and fan of some great Flight models(FM's) out there, so i hated arma2's thouroughly playfull FM and was quite hesitant about this and taking into account the community preview for TOH. im really quite taken by the whole thing though. The FM is really quite nice with my x52pro serving well, better than arma2. it could be smoother in some areas still but nice all the same. flying over the asia arena felt great for a free flight. and starting the tutorials was a blast. lots of interesting ideas to be thrown around. may it be as succesfull as the arma series. \o/ my only niggle so far.(i expected performance to be a serious niggle, thankfully not! i7-950 (no overclock), 3 gig ram, GT280(1gig), not max settings but certainly nice looking. Trackir. not normally done but my style, i like to use my lean forward as a view zoom facility but there are no analogous variations of the zoom that i can see. just need to get viewing the cockpit instruments more closer at times. seems its only at the furthest extents. In or Out. wishing for better system there. ohh and do keep the official download content rolling. Edited October 28, 2011 by 9thAircav Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karmahero 10 Posted October 28, 2011 TrackIR could definitely use better support. It works ok with the basic rotate, but the movement directions are way overly sensitive so (just as in ARMA 2), I've had to turn them off. It would be nice if it worked as well as it does in the DCS titles. @Scarmax, "You also can't change the difficulty level in Free Flight mode", There is a bit of a hack that will allow you to change it: 1) Press Escape 2) Choose Game Options 3) Choose Difficulty 4) Select Setting 5) Choose Edit 6) Choose Ok (You don't have to change anything) 7) Then Cancel > Back > Continue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sjaba 19 Posted October 28, 2011 @Bis, thanks for a nice sim, It felt very realistic and had a interesting start on the career. Take on helicopters will definitively take more hours of my schedule :) I hope this heli model is forwarded into arma3 ( atleast on expert mode) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Originally I bought it just to support BI, but now I'm actually considering buying a joystick (Don't like playing with auto-trim) and really enjoying this game. Oh you definately should, aside from the trim having a stick makes a worlds of difference compared to what you can do with the mouse and keyboard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Isaac 10 Posted October 28, 2011 To BIS team, Thank you very much for this excellent simulator, that not only is, by far, the COTS most accurate helicopter simulation ever but also because it brilliantly adds the mission based role playing, something never seen before in the flight sim scene. Please make sure I know when a country, I don't give a fuck which one, receives the english boxed version of TOH, at least one of those boxes will be mine. Isaac :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boneboys 0 Posted October 28, 2011 I'm loving this already... Pleasantly surprised by the immersion. Good game, thanks BIS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
