FSPilot 0 Posted April 19, 2003 Nope. 3-4 weeks. I suspect LOMAC will come out first Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Badgerboy 0 Posted April 19, 2003 Hmm LOMAC. I eye it with suspision, but we have both been spoiled. I doubt LOMAC will let you fly over 25+ A/C! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But in all fairness to Eagle Dynamics, Maddox Games didn't have to replicate complex avionics for each aircraft . I'll be getting that one for sure, after flying mostly western fighters in all the realistic sims I've played, I find the Russian avionics fascinating - they're just so different! Anyone who's played Lo-Mac's predecessors, the Su-27 series, probably knows what I mean. Plus Eagle Dynamic's Sims are the only ones I've seen that featured Russian jets with their authentic cockpit as opposed to "Westernized" ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FSPilot 0 Posted April 20, 2003 I just want the A-10. Sure the Eagle and the Russian birds will be lots of fun to fly, but I'm hot for that A-10. I just hope my PC can handle it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No way in hell I'd like to fly over a modern battlefield in a A10. Way to many effective MANPADs around these days. The only reason its still in service was due to its performance in the Gulf. Could you imagine flying over N Korea in one of those? Eeek! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FSPilot 0 Posted April 20, 2003 You know the routine: beam, dive, break, pray! But I guess the manpad problem is the same for every plane. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus the MiG's that like to snack on slow, low flying aircraft. Better hope you have a decent CAP operating! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FSPilot 0 Posted April 20, 2003 Naah, I just dodge as many missiles as I can. The AI in F4 is horrible with cannons, so they more often than not miss and overshoot, then I nail them in the tailpipe with an AIM-9. Works like a charm, most of the time.
