Trident Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 We didnt find out about lock on very early, did we? Sure we did, if you were a dedicated follower of the Flanker series you learned about the project when it was still little more than a few new 3D models in the Flanker2.0 game-environment. It just wasn't called Lock On back then, infact it wasn't even named yet ;) That's not completely true. There's no external pressure on FO to release early with major bugs, unlike the pressure put on ED to release what they had, by Ubisoft. The developers in FO are all people who have day jobs that pay the bills. They won't see a penny until after it's released. Yes, that's something precious! I hope they can make the most of this opportunity, but it also means that I'm not going to hold my breath about a release in the near future. Personally, I'd be surprised if it didn't come by the end of this year/beginning of next. We haven't even seen a single in-game screenshot yet (correct me if I'm wrong!), so with all due respect I'd call that a bit optimistic to say the least ;) Let alone a video! Sofar they have not (at least not publically) demonstrated the ability of their game engine to integrate the content they have created into a coherent total by releasing such material. We have not seen more than random bits and pieces at this point, not an actual running simulation. I don't believe unrealistic expectations will help matters for anyone. It'll come when it does, and only then will I judge it based on what it actually delivers. Patience is a virtue ;)
GGTharos Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Less naysaying, more excitement :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
S77th-konkussion Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Yeah Falco is right... FO is way off.. for all we know it could come out as bugged as lomac originally did... This would not be possible without the corporate talent of Ubi being involved... [sIGPIC]http://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=43337&d=1287169113[/sIGPIC]
GoldStar Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 It'll come when it does, and only then will I judge it based on what it actually delivers. Patience is a virtue ;) I agree 100% ...also anyway like people said here alredy : will be 1 more Flight sim for our colection .:thumbup: But we can see already like their marketing campaing are working g8 .People only saw few pictures yet and already take serious points of how the flight model gonna be :doh: If I Fight , Follown me - IF I Die , Revenge Me - If I Give Up , Kill Me .
SUBS17 Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 Yeah theres a few sims in development at the moment FO, BS and JT are at the top of my list for sims to get when they're released. Theres also likely to be a new sim by:thumbup: LP which would probably be either Falcon 5 or Allied Forces 2. [sIGPIC] [/sIGPIC]
sp0nge Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 This would not be possible without the corporate talent of Ubi being involved... ROFL. Now thats harsh but very true. Is breaking the laws of gravity illegal? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
