Vekkinho Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 The story of Black Shark at MAKS 2007: It's not that I wanna feel any special but revealing all key features of BS might bleach your excitement when you buy your copy. It's a fact that it was presented in public during MAKS airshow but to be able to play it one had to buy a ticket. Daily tickets cost 350 rubles (1 US$=25.50 rubles) so it's very cheap. Entire Moscow and Russia seems quite friendly when you look at the prices of food, drinks, cigarettes, public transportation etc. but for average Russian bloke it might seem expensive. Reason to that is low average salary. For instance subway driver gets 33500 rubles per year and that's like 1300 US$. Petrol is quite cheap, though. But yes I played BS, but it was just informative flight. I had labels all over monitor so I believe it was a simplified (not reallistic) game setting. I wasn't able to select any single missions, there's only one, probably quick start or something so you start in air with your engines naturally already on and most of the systems powered up. I'm not familiar with engine and systems startup so it's better this way. So the only thing I could keep my focus on was eye candy that BS provides. Stunning. Details like nothing else with a decent FPS (Ctrl+BackSpace) averaging at 25-30 over the FLOT. The only burden was simultaneous release of many flares acompanied with a huge explosion. It stuttered a bit. Mission was destruction of armoured conwoy (cca 12 units) defended with Vulcans and Avengers. I had couple of Mi-24 on my side but they didn't care about me so much. Those guys had their objectives to follow. I noticed a large improvement in terrain textures and clipping of scenery objects. It looks and feels much better than in FC-1.12 and the rig that was used wasn't any high-tech comp I believed was necessary to run BS. The guys working there in multimedial hangar told me it was AMD6000+ with X1600Pro and 2GBs of RAM. Nothing special but good enough for BS. The was no TIR there so I couldn't test no 6DOF. Rig also lacked rudders and joystick was nothing special. I believe it was Saitek Evo or something similar. I crashed a lot, not being used to a helo way of flying and some 10 YO kids yelled over my shoulder giving me instructions in russian on how to fly this baby. I walked out embarassed by a kid. But there was a huge restaurant under Tu-95 bears port wing serving cold beer called Zolotaya Bochka (Golden Barrel) and my dish of choice was Shashliki. I tried many Russian beers so my favourites are Stariy Melnik (Old Windmill), Zolotaya Bochka and Klinskoe. ATM I'm drinking some Baltika beer. Talk to you soon! Tomorrow I'm home and I 'll upload some of my pics and videos! 2 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

In Russia we count our salaries per month so the subway driver has his 1300 USD every month... feel a difference. But there are many 300-500 USD vacancies in Russia even in Moscow.

plug pray Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 even these 33500 are not quite enough, if you you are not the only one in your family, who depends on that money. [/offtop)]

But there are many 300-500 USD vacancies in Russia even in Moscow. OOOH my bad! I saw advertisement in the metro and asked the guy standing next to me is it per month or year. He said it per year and I found it quite strange for such a responsible job! Thanks for correction YO-YO! To ForceFeedback: Yeah, there's nothing like Russian beer, especially Starshiy Melnik. I found it just the way I like it. Of course I had a lot of vodka too. I like Stolichnaya a lot but Vodka called Standard is also great! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
graywo1fg Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 LOL Thanks for the story Vekkinho... sorry to hear you were imbarrased by 10 year olds :P reminds me of my cousin when he watches me fly and he has never flown at all and he's trying to tell me how to fly the plane :P LOL wierdo.

We might as well go all to Moscow beg for some crumbs! :D .
amalahama Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 Thanks a lot Vekkinho!!!! Yeah, I think to try BS was a incredible experience ;). What's about the flight model? Did you feel a very realistic FM? Can the blades be broken for over-g maneouvres? Can the neumatics burst becouse a hard landing? You know, all the details that mark the ED FM style :thumbup: I'm waiting your pictures soon ;) Regards!!
VMFA117_Poko Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 No hope to see new mission editor until release i'm afraid from what V said..?

We might as well go all to Moscow beg for some crumbs! :D No matters to be jealous. :smilewink: Moscow became to be very expensive city in last 2-3 years. One-room flat for rent costs not less than 600 USD per month here (it is for ourskirts of the city). Account also around 300-400 USD per month for 'just living'...

Those prices here are pretty much normal in my country as well. Essencial goods however must be much cheaper in russia than here. Gas costs 1.3 Euros per litter (about 4.9 Euros a gallon Somewhere in the vicinity of 5.9$ ish) wich is terrible realy. .

ED Team Yo-Yo Posted August 28, 2007 ED Team Posted August 28, 2007 How much money will you need if you want to move there and start life? At least 3x(600...700) USD to rent an appartment (1 for an realter agent, one for next month and one for the last month of your leaving)... and 300-400, as Olgerd said just for life. The question: is it so necessary to live in Moscow? :) Ніщо так сильно не ранить мозок, як уламки скла від розбитих рожевих окулярів There is nothing so hurtful for the brain as splinters of broken rose-coloured spectacles.

Pilotasso Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 Are you suggesting syberia? :D I bet its alot cheaper. .
nscode Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 Yeah... until you get the heating bill :D Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us.
Fufunka Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 Duh, so we did learn some trivia about living conditions in Portugal and Russia but almost nothing about the public display of BlackShark, no pictures, videos, any more details.. Strange.. :cry: In comparison there were tons of material from the last expo was it a year or two ago?
tflash Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 I'ld say we know as little about this mysterious game as we know about e.g., the R-27EA (AE). ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
