Mnemonic Posted December 14, 2010 Author Share Posted December 14, 2010 SimHQ did a nice little write-up on this....... http://www.simhq.com/_air13/air_459a.html Nice short review :) Except: You'll take a lot of damage, and eventually crash. On the lower levels you have quite a few number of re-spawns, but on veteran mode you only have one. I think you shouldn't have any. You don't have any re-spawns on veteran level :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J3ff Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 (edited) Are there any X-52 pro profiles that I can use? I can't waste my time from A-10C on configuring this game. Nah, you don't need one. There are only a few buttons you will actually use. Just make sure you do not have Cougar MFDS hooked up if you have them, or the game will not read your X52 button presses. I had to skip the Sharks In The Water mission. Talk about being frek'n frustrated :mad: Here is a video of some game play for those who have not seen it yet. The video might still be processing if it does not show up. Edited December 22, 2010 by DJ_J3ff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devrim Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Hi... I've met this game before DCS:BlackShark. And I played Comanche4 etc. heli games. At first look, I fell in love with Apache (a few years ago - I don't remember). It has amazing graphics, sounds. Especially, did you hear the rotor and blades' sound (air impact at low frequencies) when you zoom in the rotor area (ext. view)? It has amazing light and scenery work and good damage textures. An explosion in short range can shake you sharply. But that's not good; the sound of explosion in long distance must be heard a few milisecconds later, you know. But you can hear it instantly... Obviously, we have learned how to fly a heli, what APU is, what Engine Governor etc. with DCS. So, Apache's realism doesn't satisfy. Since have met DCS:BlackShark, I've been annoying the lifting off by pressing Space button in Apache. Overall, Apache is worth to play, of course!. Here some screenshots. By the way, I don't want to be misunderstand. Apache's good grapchics has a cost indeed. No skin, no modify grapchics or scripts etc., no mission editor, no advanced damage model, no realistic and dynamic cockpit usage or no mods!... So, DCS:BS still rocks!

EagleEye Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Sure, AAA graphics are top notch and I had some nice moments with that game. Though, it`s a still borne. Dev´s are busy with there other games. No one knows if the bugs will be ironed out in the future and if the Beta patch will become final some day?

element1108 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Agreed, a decent game of the "flash and trash" category (just made that category up). Had some fun with it for awhile. Found it for $5.99 in a bargain bin so definitely got my money's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZQuickSilverZ Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Flash and Trash...... I like it. Sir I think you just started a trend. 1 I need, I need, I need... What about my wants? QuickSilver original. "Off with his job" Mr Burns on the Simpsons. "I've seen steering wheels / arcade sticks / flight sticks for over a hundred dollars; why be surprised at a 150 dollar item that includes the complexities of this controller?! It has BLINKY LIGHTS!!" author unknown. These titles are listed in the chronological order I purchased them. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleEye Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) If you crash into a tree at 100Mph does you helicopter get damaged or is it like BS where you can just fly through them ? You can touch and fly through branches, but trunks are solid and you will crashin. Unfortunately enemys can look and shoot through the trees, like in DCS... Yeah "flash and trash" category fit`s very well. I mean, there engine is very suitable for small areas. Absolutely sufficient for a helicopter game or simulation me thinks. If they only would like (and have the funding) to do a simulation instead of a arcade game.... They may work on a new Apache game (eventualy this time with playable copilot/gunner) after World of Planes and so on.

Devrim Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 If you crash into a tree at 100Mph does you helicopter get damaged or is it like BS where you can just fly through them ? Right, as EagleEye said, it's like BS. And, damaging process isn't like BS. You can damage BlackShark by hitting the ground many times until explode or breakdown. But in AAA, this is very narrow (limited). You can blow it up surprizely. That's why mostly hard landing isn't tolerated. :) I was playing AAA for softer graphics and nice sounds. But after BS's playability, functions and mods (skins and rotor sounds), I don't even install AAA today.

Ali Fish Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 a thought, like flaming cliffs is to DCS, i would very much like to see a title from ED that concentrates on helicopters specifically in the same vain as flaming cliffs exists for the jet scene. just a light hearted heli combat sim with plenty variation on airframes.
