That game looks quite good danny,Hows the control? Easy?

I was playing the Demo of HAWX a few days back,realy good actualy better than i expected but to control the jet properly you do realy need a Joystick.

The mouse just doesnt cut it :D
 
Woah Danny wait a second, getting ahead of yourself. I was gonna say it looked horrible :P

Just kidding man, looks awesome! I love the circular scratches on the window, they add an aspect of realism. :)

the water is pretty well made in that video too. altough, I didnt find it to feel particular realistic. (planes are soooo easy to make look good in a game btw) except when you fly really low over it, the surface doesnt change, wich I find to be a bit cheap tbh. :P

I also found the game to become boring quite fast. but maybe thats because I prefer dogfighting in a CFS, rather than shooting missles from a distance of 10 kilometers or so. (boring!)

the game was really hard to run back in the day,.. (its from the time when I sill had 2 7800GTX's. wich really struggeled to max the game when you flew over a city)
 
Lock On with labels on?! For shame! Crank that realism to 100% :P

I used to play quite a bit, I'd fly 100feet or less in the mountain canyons in the Su-27 and ambush people that flew overhead with IR missiles. Good times :D
 
ever landed (and took off again) a plane on a acre road Crom? (when you hit the acres, your nosewheel breaks instantly, but on thos tiny roads it stays intact. )

I do really prefer IL2 tough... but maybe thats because after playing Lock On for 3 months online, I still didnt find the function to fire misles. >.< so I went to everyone with guns. :P
 
Yeah I landed on roads quite a bit actually. If you hit a hill when you land on those little dirt roads it can get ugly. The planes in the standard varsion really can't touch the grass, the nose wheel breaks or you just explode which is dumb. In flaming cliffs they changed the mechanics of the SU-25 and added an SU-25T, both of which both can land anywhere.

I made this one scenario map where there was 80KPH cross winds and the objective was to land an SU-25T with a full weapons payload (so your plane was really heavy). By the end we were able to land but only rarely without any damage. The most common damage was bursting all the tires and then losing control and scraping wing tips on the ground.

Haha! :P
Yeah, it's really good. Hard though! Get it and fly with me! It was only £5 here.

Easy-ish. Once you get all the buttons mapped how you want. I wouldn't play it without a joystick though.

HAWX looks pretty good, but I've heard the gameplay is pretty bad. Is it?

Haha! I'm waiting for the new IL2, Stoked! :D

:rolleyes: Fine! Haha!

I've seen there's two different modes for the radar, too. Realistic, which I have it on now and Arcade, what does arcade mode do?

Sweet! lol.
I can't figure out how to use the radar in anything other than the F15 though! Got any tips? Install it and give me some lessons! :P

I dont think the gameplay is bad at all,just the controls are hard with the mouse.

Cruising along :D

Arcade makes the radar more movie like. You get blips on it to show you where stuff is around you. It's pretty lame.

Do you have all the patches for the original release? I think 1.02 was the last patch they released. Give the training tracks a play through as well, they are pretty good but you have to read all of the text that pops up while you are flying (pause helps a lot).
 
Maybe we can play on the weekend or something. I don't like not having my old joystick though :( I had it set up to cycle through radar modes with a rotary dial on the throttle and guns/missile select and stuff on the joystick, another 2 rotary dials for panning the radar bug. I'll have to learn the actual key binds :P I do like that LOMAC actually has default keybinds unlike IL2 which gives you a key reference card that says "User Defined" for pretty much everything.
 
Lock On's pretty sweet. I still don't understand how to fly the stupid Sukhoi's properly except pressing K and doing the Cobra.

IL2's also awesome. Love flying those spits. They're soo damn good at taking out the BF109's.
