Lock on: modern air combat

Recommended Posts

All I'm asking for, is atleast the possibility to add aircraft, since they only have 2 flyable US ones.  Even if the cockpit's just reskinned, I'd be pretty happy.  With as long as they've made us wait, that's the least they can do.

OFP is a pretty realistic game(in ground comabat), and we get new addons almost every day.

Look at it as a way to expand your airplane horizons. Those russkies make some pretty great airplanes. biggrin_o.gif

Yeah, I'm getting the game mostly for the A-10, but chances are I'll walk away in love with one of those damn Commie planes smile_o.gif

You're a Luftwaffe kind of guy, that customized MiG-29A should suit you fine smile_o.gif

Ja.  smile_o.gif  I like my thrust/weight ratios large, and my airplanes and frauleins fast  tounge_o.gif

Depending on how complicated all the avionics are I'll probably only fly the A-10.  Don't want to spend hours learning each type of avionics for each different airplane.  At least not while I'm at college. biggrin_o.gif

In other words I can't learn to fly a computer because I have to learn to fly an airplane. biggrin_o.gifbiggrin_o.gifbiggrin_o.gif

Gonna be tough for me to decide on a ride. been looking forwards to shipborne operations in the Su-33, but due to it being navalized the thrust to weight ratio is somewhat lower than the standard Su-27 and possibly less maneuverable. The MiG-29C is going to be the only plane able to carry the R-77 (It's actually a MiG-29S, but NATO dosen't seem to differentiate between it and the base MiG-29C variant). If I want to fly for the other side, there's the Luftwaffe MiG-29A, but I 'll have to see what effect the 10% reduction in engine power will have. I'm also wary of it's lack of an internal jammer. All these planes have more or less the same avionics and similar radar, so I guess in the end it'll be the one that "feels right"

I just tested a beta version of the game. I am by no ways a die hard flight-sim gamer but boy, this game looks and feels gooooood. Genuinly quite impressed just by how it looks. Looking forward for you guys telling me how well it plays : )

Hard to say, the beta build was far from done. It lacked campaigns, missions and such. You could basically just fly around and test the various airplanes. That however seemed pretty solid. So by my reckoning its the missions left to put in, and I suppose they have been working on that for a while now.

Nah, I dont review games. I send them out to be reviewed though. I work with PR, so, I get to test all the games in order to be able to say good things about them. : )

What is the usual bribe you take for sending someone like me one of the betas?

Ahhhh, so you're one of those guys who write the press releases that read like "From the Christlike makers of the groundbreaking, insanely popular Soldier of Fortune, comes the vaunted Soldier of Fortune 2, which is set to cure world hunger and make you 3 inches taller, and may in fact contain the collective hopes of humanity within its code. Coming soon to a fine retailer near you!"

Just to reiterate the fact that more planes are being considered as addons - I think this'll probably make ran happy biggrin_o.gif. A little quote from a thread lobying for a flyable Mirage:

Quote[/b] ]Thank you for the suggestion and the feedback.

The Mirage is being considered along with lots of other aircraft for possible add on products.

We've been in touch with reps from the defense industry for possible cooperation.

I appreciate the Dassault link. Have you know someone there or have you actually spoken to anyone with Dassault?

Cheers,

Carl

Personally I would love to have a flyable plane from Dassault or Saab. Something completely different smile_o.gif.
