The first public appearance of the Maddox Games successor to the IL-2 Series by Doug “guod” Atkinson Oleg and Ilya are presenting some of Storm of War at the “Igromir 2010” exhibition held in Moscow. Day 2 was open to the public and as you will see, was crowded! Oleg’s comments are below each of Oleg’s images. A thanks […]
Back To Page 5 Closing Thoughts Rise of Flight can’t really be given a blanket sort of rating or recommendation, in my opinion, as it really depends on what one is into or what one is looking for. Non-flight simulation person… I’d give it a pass, to be honest. It’s flight sim geek territory, with a […]
Preview Screenshots – Set 2 Four new screenshots of the upcoming WWII flight sim from GMX
Back To Page 2 Pros The Last Days contains an enormous amount of material. The price tag of 20 US dollars is more than reasonable for this product. Yes it is an add on and some people will balk at that but for what you get and for what is coming in additional patches to […]
Back To Page 1 Environment The Last Days really shines in the environment category. From the start of the first mission where I had to take off it was readily apparent. The airfields are truly beautiful. Jumping outside the cockpit I noticed that the AAA are actually in bunkers. Some of the air defenses are […]
Expansion for the highly popular IL-2 Series by Guest Writer Doug “Uther” Lawrence Introduction The Last Days is an extensive late war campaign for the IL-2 Forgotten Battles flight simulator series. The pack can be added to Forgotten Battles and any combined installs as long as you have FB 1.21 or later installed. TLD boasts […]
Back To Page 1 To be honest, the game shines in single and multiplayer missions, not in campaign mode. One of the biggest complaints that I had with all of the IL-2 series was the relative lack of single missions that shipped with the game. Add on packs like TLD and Case Blue tend […]
Expansion for the highly popular IL-2 Series by Tom “WKLINK” Cofield While “Uther” took The Last Days through its paces I had a chance to fiddle with Fall Blau; or the Anglo named Case Blue mission and campaign pack. You will probably notice that I will use the two terms interchangeably in the review. Most people, […]
Back To Page 3 You decide to have some fun and do a running takeoff. You lock the tail wheel, pull power and keep the nose down while holding the aircraft still with the brakes. Once power is up, you release the brakes and keep the aircraft aligned with the centerline. There is a 10 […]
Back To Page 2 Q: Memorable indeed. Perhaps, if you wouldn’t mind, take us along for a ride in the Apache. Maybe start with the pre-flight, setting the aircraft up to go, the takeoff and getting ready for action. A typical, if there is such a thing, Apache mission. A: Sure. It might go something like this: […]
Back To Page 1 Q: You mentioned the difficulty of training to use the PNVS system, what is it like flying the aircraft at night? What would a pilot do in the event of a PNVS failure on a very dark night? Also how about flying the Apache low to the ground, NOE. At what point […]
