fizban2000 Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 I am currently playing Wings of Prey however the multiplay seems unpopulated and not active. I am looking to get involved in a active multiplayer community over here but not sure which game is the best to get....A10c, Lock on, or BlackShark. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Gene A-10C, MI-8, UH-1, KA-50, F-86, P-51, FC-3, MIG-21
Krebs20 Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 If you are just "getting into" the lock on world, I would recommend FC2. The multiplayer is always active somewhere. It's a lot less to learn off the bat. Also you can fly several less complex aircraft in FC2. In both blackshark and a10 you can only fly one aircraft. Blackshark is great is you want a helicopter sim. A10 is awesomly complex and has a good online crowd. Also FC2 and blackshark are compatible online. A10 and blackshark will soon be compatible as well. So you will see a mix of aircraft in all servers, expect A10. If you plan to play online with any of these titles, you have to learn how to navigate and use the weapons in single player 1st. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
fizban2000 Posted March 22, 2011 Author Posted March 22, 2011 Thanks for your input....I just purchased Lock on FC2 and it should arrive in a week. Cannot wait. A-10C, MI-8, UH-1, KA-50, F-86, P-51, FC-3, MIG-21

Rusty_M Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Kinda the wrong forum, I know, but if you like Wings Of Prey, and you want better multiplayer, there's always IL-2 Sturmovik 1946. It's certainly not short of people playing mulriplayer. Other than that, just what the people above have mentioned. The world is going mad. Me? I'm doing fine! http://www.twitch.tv/rusty_the_robot https://www.youtube.com/user/RustyRobotGaming
fizban2000 Posted March 22, 2011 Author Posted March 22, 2011 Thanks for your responses.....I actually purchased Lock on Platinum which has all versions up to LO2, so I am assuming i will be fine. Any other thoughts? Thanks, Gene A-10C, MI-8, UH-1, KA-50, F-86, P-51, FC-3, MIG-21

Burnerski Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 I think the best online multiplayer sim is AcesHigh. The graphics are somewhat dated but the flight and balistics modeling are excellent. Plus the cockpits are 6dof. Works good with multi monitors. http://www.hitechcreations.com/ Free download and 2 weeks free online no strings. Regards
