Geier Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Four minutes video, made by Templar: http://vootatico.com/?p=307 LOL, the BS is better, as for me of course:smartass:
Jinky Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 I have to say it looks pretty crap and I'd imagine those cockpit voices would soon get on your nerves.
tflash Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 When not surfing on http://www.lockon.ru I play EECH2 all the time! It is a truly enjoyable game and a good appetizer for BS. I was sceptical about helo sims but this one changed my mind. It makes you want to fly "the real thing" in BS! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Force_Feedback Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 EECH2 is a disgrace, a modded EECH 1 is better, gives you more fps with the same eye candy and flight dynamics. You can't even do a rolling take-off in EECH 1,2 and all the mods. 7 years ago that was acceptable, but that isn't the case now, same goes for Falcon 4 and all its mods. Yeah, great new textures and nice Aim-9Xes, but in the end the FM is still based on the same rules as the one from 1997. Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:
PythonOne Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 EECH2 totally sucked, the old EECH + mods was a lot better.
H4rM Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 I really enjoy EE2 myself. Great graphics and gameplay. No problems so far with it .

PythonOne Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 EECH2 graphics are no better than the original EECH + mods. It seems like another F4:AF, they basically took and old and successful game, did a little revamp that seems no better than what free community mods would do, and sold it on the market.
airea Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 One more think I noticed from the video: All the things that the co-pilot/gunner man and betty say are nearly same as those in Longbow2...like "impact" or "good shot sir" or "bluh bluh failure"... They are the same:)
Piffer Posted July 10, 2007 Author Posted July 10, 2007 any hi-res download version? http://putstuff.putfile.com/93988/100949 from http://www.simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2254802&page=1#Post2254802 http://vootatico.com
SuperKungFu Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 thanks, any other good EECH movies? I would like to see a couple before i reinstall it. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Kifaru Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 I put this one together last year sometime. The community patches have made EECH a pretty awesome sim. I might even re-install it my self... [sIGPIC]http://img352.imageshack.us/img352/4178/vaafbannerum6copyyj2.gif[/sIGPIC]
Highwayman-Ed Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 OK, let's all take a breath and a balanced approach here... We as Lock On fan's do not bow down to the "that sim is crap ours is better" god that some other communities do... :smartass: EECH 1 is now 10 years old, so for a sim of that age, with the support of some damned talented people we have a sim that is still fun and enjoyable after all of this time... One more think I noticed from the video: All the things that the co-pilot/gunner man and betty say are nearly same as those in Longbow2...like "impact" or "good shot sir" or "bluh bluh failure"... They are the same:) The voices in this build I believe are imported by one of those talented guys directly from those found in Longbow 2 and implanted over the defalt voices of EECH, which is a good thing, believe me ;) Longbow2 seems to have a better cockpit:) The virtual cockpit of the Apache in EECH is a complete fresh add on by the community... it's been in the works since about 1.6.x, but actually looks pretty good IMHO EECH2 is a disgrace, a modded EECH 1 is better, gives you more fps with the same eye candy and flight dynamics. You can't even do a rolling take-off in EECH 1,2 and all the mods. 7 years ago that was acceptable, but that isn't the case now, same goes for Falcon 4 and all its mods. Yeah, great new textures and nice Aim-9Xes, but in the end the FM is still based on the same rules as the one from 1997. Agreed, EECH is much better for your money (Amazon.co.uk are selling EEAH and EECH for £5.98!) http://www.amazon.co.uk/o/ASIN/B000C0TZ0E/ref=s9_asin_title_2-1966_g1/026-0454312-6958024?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-1&pf_rd_r=14Z541EHJZF3P9D0S5BD&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=139042191&pf_rd_i=468294 Rolling take offs? sure you can, turn on the advanced flight model (OK, it's not that advanced, but...) and all of the realism options, let your wheel brakes off and away you go... EECH2 got all of our hopes up, but IMHO didn't deliver anything close to what it promised. All of the models have higher resolution skins, but seriously, who's going to be flying within 50ft of a ZSU-23-4 to take advantage of that! The flight model is dated, can't argue with that, but it's about the best that those of us out of the ED Testers team have right now ;) EECH2 did bring in individually modelled trees but they only appear within a few km of you, and it also brought in an absolute sh#t load of bugs. I worked patiently with my copy for 2 days to get it into the position of getting it to run every time, but even now when flying NOE with it, I still quite frequently fly into the terrain which is moddeled ABOVE the terrain textures in some places! As a result I've ditched Enemy Engaged 2 and stuck with EECH + mods. Enemy Engaged 2 (courtesy of SIM HQ forums) EECH 1.8.6 EECH 1.8.6 What I'm trying to say is, EECH is not BS, and nor could it ever hope to be, but it is a very good simulator for its age, that has been updated by a group of excellent modders, and is IMHO about the best combat rotary wing simulator that we have available to install on all of our hard drives today... Give it the respect it deserves, it's well worth £6 of anyone's money :thumbup: Grab yourself a copy and get on over to www.eechcentral.com and www.simhq.com for tips and tricks.

rockwelder Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Hey I done did those terrain graphics in 2nd 3rd 4th shots.. Any way, it does deserve a certain amount of respect... as one of the few who have flown BS and EECH 1-2 there is alot to get excited about regarding the future of combat helicopter simulation.
sp0nge Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 I have to say it looks pretty crap and I'd imagine those cockpit voices would soon get on your nerves. +1... Those explosions were terrible IMO.. and yes, that cockpit voice would DEFINITELY rip my scalp off.. Is breaking the laws of gravity illegal? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
EagleEye Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 The new weapon ballistics looks really nice. Like the spread effekt of the bullets.:thumbup: Also like the system and Co/Gunner voice!

tflash Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 +1... Those explosions were terrible IMO.. and yes, that cockpit voice would DEFINITELY rip my scalp off.. You can also go to the options page and turn it off. Better then loosing your scalp imho. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
