AMD Athlon X2 64 2,7 Ghz Dual Core CPU

[Fr1392]

@9MinamiKe6 yes you can, if that is still important to you :)

[MrComanche12]

66666 vu :)

[Scorpac]

your camera movement sucks

[jam1one]

Do you need Track IR to stand a chance at winning flight simulations in online mode?

[finnesselli]

is this for PC only?

[Tabby266]

@RepentNowHellsReal This isn't the place to spout about religious stuff. Go do that somewhere else.

[axisofadvance666]

Horrendous flying.

[warmonger735]

@RepentNowHellsReal you really dont like me do you?

[warmonger735]

my pc meets all specs exept it runs windows 7 rather than xp or vista

can i still play this game? pls reply

[19perses83]

is the campaign dinamic?

[TEAMALSTARE]

looks like he has it on easy mode....no stalls spins etc..

[SimpleKillTheBatman]

Well it only stalls and spins if your going over the plane's limits..

[NichtsNadaNothing]

WWI & WWII: only open fire when the enemy plane fills out your front window - Adolf Galland. Or a unknown WWI Pilot: After landing my plane, I recognized the bloodstains from the enemy pilot on my jacket.

[pharoah246]

Hey i was just wondering here What are those hammer-like Things on the right side of the machine guns? I've never seen those before. If they are some kind of an earlier version of the hammer could someone please tell me? I'm just wondering here but i've never seen that before.

[JTelli786]

its the bolt

[Genessender]

Cocking levers.

[pharoah246]

ahh thank you.

[pharoah246]

This guy cant hit his target for his life...

[26DeislerFCB]

omg this is looking stunning, did i need an hardcore pc for this?

[PL135]

you know, you would actually hit something if you would LEAD THE TARGET for crying out loud!!!!

[Plawranc]

Doesnt help much in ROF, youve got to be five feet away to fire

[cerealpipe]

it's not a hand simulator.

[BADBOYBICKY]

Looks great. But nothing beats battlefield 1942 flying and dogfigting.

[cerealpipe]

hahah ur kidding right, BF2 is a GAME

[ziherr]

yes they should make it a highest priority to add virtual arms in cokpit so i can feel like an octopus. yes, my arms + virtual arms, that would be so great...

[totallyRebb]

Telekinesis, duh.

[bigbob6556]

is it free after buy disk? or monthly payments?

[ShastyMcNastey]

Free, but as of now, you have to purchase more planes if you want them, not just download them. But that is not required.

[fknwtf]

That's some impressive flying, especially considering there doesn't appear to be a pilot anywhere in the cockpit.

[EricDutemple]

someone on the ground with a remote s flying this thing :D

[Rogerdb86]

LOL :D nice one

[StarTux]

Yeah, but is it worth the potential extra FPS hit? Maybe sometime we'll get an option though, that would be nice!

[NKCrime]

@fknwtf actually not. not a bit of taktics and 10 second fire bursts...

[SabaothChristou]

@NKCrime Agreed... Looks more like he was aiming in the other plane's general direction and spraying in hopes of getting a few hits.

[Mikebmc]

Anyone know how to program the slider on a joystick to work as the throttle in Rise of Flight?. I just got my copy yesterday and I can't find a way to do it. In the "Input" section of "Settings" I'm not able to make any changes at all. What can I do. I don't like using the keyboard to do my thottle.

[Stray03]

I had that issue with my X45, click on the control option then slide the throttle when that window appears, should pick up the "axis".

[Mikebmc]

Thanks but I got it figured long ago. I had to create a new file as the original is read only.

[Colliecool]

Probably the best non-arcade-like simulator of WWI Biplanes around.

They even got the aiming right. Going to be hard to hit anything, and trace your target if he banks.

Try to beat Richthofen's score of approx. 72-80 kills.

[12OclockLow]

Ha! But Richtofen got tossed around in his plane like a ragdoll, had his life on a thread, and when he died he didn't get a 'game over' message and a 'retry' option.

All I'm saying is, games will forever be games, no matter how hard they try to be realistic.

[redbaronorcrowley]

@Colliecool

1. it's more like 72-100, but the usual estimate is 80 because the other 20 were never confirmed even for propaganda purposes.

2. Over 2 years without respawning and allowing only 1 defeat?

[Spyster007]

What resolution is this running at? and what are the graphic detail levels set to? What system is it running on?

by the way this game looks awesome can't wait until it's out.

thanks!

No, a rudder is called a rudder. It is ATTACHED to the vertical stabilizer.

[whoiscatnow]

yeah thats what i though when i read his comment too

[iceberg789]

dear mr KnowItAll,

i seriously suggest some studies before teaching stuff to students. The long horizontal thiggy covering upper screen view of sight is no way is Rudder(yes "Rudder" is the original spelling). - a rudder is the vertical fin that normally used in airplanes to produce side thrusts while wings are used to produce "lift".

if u r thinking abt elevators(yes these r used on wings - front or tail), i think this ww-I era biplane is so primitive that it does not use elevators.

[iceberg789]

wow amaging ! but hey how do u find ur target there? that wing blocks the holw view lol.

[GOZR]

Yes the perpective is weird ( fish eyes like ) ala Lockon ...

Their are solutions to make it better...

[Wailwulf]

The perspective is weird, its as if the farther away something is, the wider the angle lens is seeing it. Its really noticeable on the lower wing, take a look at the same lower wing at 2:03 and at 2:08, one is narrow, the other is wide. And the background seems weird when the plane is on its side compared to level flight, not how I see the world oe see it move when I'm sideways.

[FranksValli]

Yeah, it is. The perspective is adjustable with the mouse wheel - this looks like it's zoomed all the way out. This video was made without TrackIR (just the mouse moving around), so I think they needed the wider field to see everything :)

[zauii89]

Yes it's gonna be a blast :)

April can't come soon enough

[Zabba567]

This sim is going to be amazing :)

[FranksValli]

Thanks for the article, the pics, and the videos SimHQ :)
