Wings of Luftwaffe Expansion (4 player co-op)
Hi guys,
In case you guys dont know about Wings of Prey, it is the PC version of Birds of Prey (same thing only with all plane cockpits and extra features and options). Well, this PC version will have an expansion "Wings of Luftwaffe" which will feature a 4 player co-op campaign. My point: It would be great to know who, from this forum's community, has the PS3 or Xbox version as well as the PC version so that we can get together on this 4 player, 10 mission, German Campaing Expansion. * Hopefully, in a near future, some "one" company will release something similar on the consoles :) This expansion is $10.50 (console version owners should get discount!) :) **** Wings of Luftwaffe Features **** - Take to the skies as a German pilot; - Embark on 10 new missions; - Cooperative mode for up to four players; - New planes: the Ju 88 A-4 and the P-39N-0; - 44 new skins for the various planes. http://yuplay.com/story.php?title=Wi...e--pre-order-1 |
was wings of prey a big improvement over IL-2 1946 and its expansions?
|
Are there many on-line players on WOP or is it a small community of regulars?
|
I really don't understand how you can create such an incredible game engine and then pair it with a completely inferior multiplayer backend. I can only assume WoP is a port from the console version otherwise dedicated servers files would have been in there from the beginning.
Both games would be far more popular if you could see on-line servers and have the ability to drop-in at any time. |
Nice! They should so put that on consoles..

Oh my god, I would absolutely LOVE a German campaign mode in this game. Sure hope it comes to the PS3 soon.

from all i have seen and read its going to be PC only ( and I have a fricken MAC!). if a console version comes out it will have to be watered down...sad to say...BUT i still would get it. i have the xbox..... and am looking at getting some sort of PC...just so i can play the newer games.
dang you guys in europe are fast to jump on stuff....haha those boys in the planes ( and on the ground)...might not have been nazis....they were doing what they had to do for the country...despite who was in charge at the time. God bless them all....both sides |

But Storm of War being released in 2010 would make me reconsider. It doesn't matter much if a publisher releases plenty of patches and add-ons if they're just gonna release a whole new title in less than a year. I hate the way they make their stuff obsolete on purpose just to make more money. Motor Storm on ps3 was like that. They could have kept adding courses and vehicles, instead they remade the whole thing and then remade it again, and made it for psp too. |

BoP and WoP were both developed by Gaijin and have no connection to SoW. |

But I can't do either until I give my pc a new brain. |

I took the plunge and bought Wings Of Prey from steam yesterday. Was expecting great things from some of the comments.
I grabbed a wireless third party ps3 pad and that's where the problems started. The control options are so confusing it took me over an hour trial and error before I got a ps3 style setup. Entered a multiplayer match and got disconnect midway then when I went into another match my target lock button had reset. Also it was a bit disapointing that all the arcade matches were stacked with i-153s! So much for pc players being more serious!! When it was working ok it was pretty good gaming. Lots of disconnects and menu systems for selecting aircraft in lobby is terrible. Some new graphical touches added to maps. I spotted and army camp near dover and Dover harbour has a load of submerged sunken freighters. Some odd choices though. In team battle gunfire appears to be team coloured. Bit off putting seeing blue tracers! In short it's good but I prefer ps3. Aside from the actual game it's the players on ps3 that make the game. |

yeah i got it a few weeks ago and pretty much agree with all of what dk said for sure the graphics are cleaner and some of the maps are stunning in places it is definatly more of a simulation than bop and takes quite along time to get use as their are more things you have to control while flying ie supercharger settings, fuel mixture and multiple trim settings which can seem quite anal at first but just takes time to get used to. the things i like about it are you have more options when setting up a room like only having cockpit view for example and another thing i like is what ever map you choose people can only fly planesthat are associated with that map. the things dont like are: gameplay seems a bit to slow compared to real life and configuring the controlls is a bitch. but all in all it is a good game that is worth buying and taking time with

Did you install all the patches? Maybe that is the reason for disconnects. About the pad, I never had problems with it.
