Apache Air Assault Thread

[FOZ_1983]

I cant see the A10 being flyable in game to be honest (sorry guys), after all its a heli sim so wouldnt really fit in. Im guessing you can possibly fly other helicopters and call in an A10 airstrike perhaps? but the flying physics between helicopter and plane would be to much effort to put into the game if that makes sense? I just think it will stay as helicopters only.

Can you imagine online, a blackhawk v A10!!

hahaha



On a lighter note, its good to see on the official website under "aircraft" the apache you fly is the british version (or one of many you fly)

Don't forget flying physics for planes already existed from BoP. Stick a couple of jet engines into the Il-2 and you'd get a reasonably good A-10 or Su-25 model. Take the He-162, give it a modern engine, add a function to switch to helicopter flight physics, and you have a Harrier

I think people are setting their hopes way too high if they think an A-10 will be flyable in this. None of the media so far has even said other helos, apart from Apache variants, are playable let alone a fixedwing jet.

I think the most we can hope for is Blackhawk/Hind/Ka 50 either patched in or as DLC.

The Mi-35 is listed in the aircraft list. Its an export version, so I wouldn't feel comfortable flying it ever.

there is a whole lot of news in russia about this but nothing so far in the west.. hey kors can you translate some of those for us?

from a german release today.."Somewhat disappointing, however, that only a single helicopter model may be flown, but at least in various modifications."

Thats proof of how ridiculous reviewers are!! Fancy writing something so stupid when its clearly obvious the game is evolved around the apache helicopter!! Idiocy.

Its silly things like that which makes me never listen to ANY review what so ever unless it comes from someone i know who has spent more than 30 mins playing a game

I for one will be getting this game no matter what, its one of my most anticipated title releases this year

[Korsakov829]

Anything exported from the U.S.S.R won't have everything in it like the original.
Well, only one helicopter.. Let me know if I can paint a Russian flag on it.

Its being published by Activision. Big let down.

Well strickly speaking the Apache air Assault name is the series name just like Il-2 sturmovik and how many planes does that have? If they did fill AAA full of different aircraft it probably would probably still be called the same thing.

Its still possible that the A10 is flyable only in multiplayer and free flight after being unlocked. No reviewer is going to do enough to unlock aircraft. Remember how obscure the BoP unlocks are, we didn't have a clue before the unlock list came about. Gaijin could be keeping a good few aircraft a secret for now.

Haha yes you're probably right. Although Its fun to voice ones hopes even if they not very likley to happen. No ones saying that they will be dissapointed if their hopes don't come true.

Huh? why? Its still russian, its just a more advanced version of the Mi-24D.

Thats like me saying I'm not comfortable flying the P-51D in BoP just because its not in RAF colours and isn't called the Mustang Mk.IV
