Malleus

EEAH - first game with apache and havok EECH - sequel with commanche and hokum, mods are available for this at eechcentral. also, you can merge this game with EEAH - this is teh goodness EE2 (or EECH2) - forget about it :)

Well you probably won't find anything as realistic as BS is going to be, but most people would suggest Enemy Engaged: Commanche Hokum 1.9 or LongBow 2 - although neither one is easy to acquire, because they are quite old games. I only played EECH from that two. It's a 1999(?) game that had its source code released later and is being upgraded ever since by fans. It looks great, have a dynamic campaign engine, and fairly realistic. Current flyables are Mi-28, RAH-66, AH-64 and Ka-52. Every other helo is flyable too, they just don't have a cockpit.

You must not forget that only a percentage of the buyers play MP, and adding a plane to the sim is tremendous work. Adding something for multiplayer only might just not worth it for the devs... Well, they worked, but I'd expect something better in a future product. Or maybe I just can't handle the workload of those sims. :)

I think it's just a scale that fills up if you get more and more warns. They turn from light pink to ... dark pink one by one. Although it's just a theory since I haven't been warned.

Interesting ... especially if you take a look at the banner on the top of the page...

lavi, that's what I was thinking when I heard the two seater thing (and actually since I first played JF-15). If there is a two seater it better have some state of the art WSO/co-pilot AI. Two seater sims until now usually had a system where you had to do everything, and the WSO was just a bag of talking ballast sitting behind/before you. It's just not right, and also quite overwhelming for the pilot ... I mean, there's a reason those aircrafts have a TWO member crew, right?

Present. ...ahh, new forum startup ... now where's that checklist? :pilotfly:

Why would it? It's almost a completely different thing - fixed wing and heli. I don't know about you, but I sure as hell won't stop playing with LO after BS comes out. Actually, I'd prefer it to be a stand alone product. Anyway, I agree with the OP, hopefully modders will not forget LO and FC after BS arrives...

Will there be some kind of winter camo pattern available for the Ka-50?

Thanks! There is hope then... :)

Hi! Is there some kind of autopilot function in the KA-50, like Altitude Hold or Hover Hold? And will such thing be in the game? I ask because I tried playing EECH1.9 recently (which doesn't have a working altitude hold feature), and since I olny have a simple 4axis/8button+hat stick, flying a helicopter is possible, but operating the weapon and other systems at the same time is ... tricky.:joystick:
