VFA41_Lion Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 .... just what the hell does the name mean, anyway? Flaming cliffs? Cliffs on fire? How on earth does that make you think of a modern jet fighter combat sim/game? :helpsmilie:

theOden Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 I bet it's a russian expression for "fully lit up afterburner" just that something horrible, including personal injuries and loss of milk, occurred during translation :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Witchking Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 The Georgia / crimea terrain is full of nice mountains where there can be some amazing missions and the Su25T was the first ED aircraft to have the revolutionary (even till now) AFM. Since it is a ground attack aircraft, hence the name flaming cliffs.

blackbelter Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 I thought it was because of the introduction of the attacker Su25 in FC, which can make flames on cliffs?
Rykane Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 I thought it was the burning wrecks of the planes that I've flown after I've hit them into a cliff.
104th_Crunch Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 Went over this before. It is about a bunch of guys named Cliff :)

104th_Crunch Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 (edited) Seriously, though I would think Flaming Cliffs means: Flaming - as in fire. As in a war zone that is on fire. Cliffs - as in the the cliffs in and around the Caucasus mountians where the sim takes place. Kinda of like saying Hills Of Fire. Edited October 19, 2012 by Crunch

Mustang Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 This sim was also titled "LockOn: Hot Rocks" on the russian side of things, i can see why it was changed to Flaming Cliffs instead :)
joey45 Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 hahahahaha.. Be on the lookout for these follow up titles with brand spanking new maps; Burning Sands, Boiling Water, Crispy City, Pyro Plains and Steamy Hot Mud Pile. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
