WhiteKnight77 Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Whirlwind of Vietnam is being brought to us from the iL2 Sturmovik dev team of 1C Maddox Games. As the title implies, it is set in Vietnam and will feature helicopters instead of fixed wing aircraft. They are sticking to the level of detail found in the previous games they have released. Looks interesting, I want to try a Snake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRP 56 Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 I'm not the greatest flyer but those choppers look like they might be fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack57 Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Just a slight correction - it is being published by 1C and developed by G5 Software, the same people who produced the hugely dissapointing Fair Strike. As easy as it is to bag them straight off because of this, we need to give them a fair go to see if they can come up with something better under the guidance of 1C.

DeltaDude Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Sounds pretty cool, especially the ability to switch between different crew stations on the chopper like door-gunner and co-pilot/gunner. However, I hope they don't limit this to flying on Gunships like the UH-1C and AH-1G/J. I'd like to be able to fly a UH-1B/D slick on troop insertions or medi-vac operations as well, that would be a rather hairy and exciting game-play experience, and give credit to the chopper pilots of Vietnam who have always really been taken for granted and never portrayed in any serious light. I'm on board with this one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suicide Commando Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 I've still never installed my copy of Lock On: Modern Air Combat. Think I got scared away by the learning curve. This looks like a cool game thogh. Black Shark looks really slick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is infected with Starforce. ← Starforce? I agree with Jack, we are very much in need of a new and thorough mil flight sim. I for one miss the Jane's series. Off topic here but has anyone tried the latest incarnation of Falcon 4.0? I was a bit put off by Graphsim's involvement after their debauchery with F-18 repackaged in Iraq.

Sup Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Starforce? ← Copy protection software, I think. WK's had some bad encounters with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
