This game could die.

If you want good Heli action play Thunderstrike: Operation Phoenix. The gamepad is unbelievibly perfect for Heli flight, It's as good as it gets on consoles. I for one would love to see a sequal.

i really agree with this topic.
for now BoP is still the only game i'm playing but i don't even try to look for a multiplayer game anymore, it's too disappointing. i'm doing the solo missions over and over again.
even resident evil 5 (a mainly solo game design) makes it easier to find a multiplayer game.
and i really doubt all our problems will be solved with the update.

and i found some funny bugs too ^^
for example, shoot a plane, and continue shooting while it's on fire, you will still hear the pilot scream "i got hit, i got hit", even if you saw him bail out a minute ago ^^
also, when you crash next to anti-aircraft warfare, it will still be trying to shoot you, so you see the little black clouds just above your burning wreckage, i love it ^^

Where are you getting your info? Have you not seen any of the videos on their main site?

Yes you can fly helicopters, little bird, cobra to name two they even show first person cockpit view in the littlebird, tanks, hummers, railbuggy, there is all sorts of vehicles.http://worthplaying.com/article/2009/9/24/news/68738/

In multiplayer it is confirmed
http://www.flashpointgame.com/index....32&pagenumber=

In the video, players are shown using surveillance to recon targets, infiltrating buildings, engaging in close and ranged fire-fights and deploying vehicles including the AH6 and MI-17 ground attack helicopters and the M1A2 battle tank.

MW2, yes it has vehicles did you not see the snowmobile?

If your talking strictly MP FourZeroTwo said no vehicles in MP on MW2

Personally I'm waiting for some reviews and some gameplay footage before I buy MW2. To be honest I'm sick of them (Infinity Ward and Treyarch) churning out COD games every year, so unless MW2 is going to be really innovative and something different from MW, I'm not buying it.

That's what I thougth as well. But I'm sure I will get a few months of fun out of it, so that is worth $60 to me.

Possibly, but none of those are flight games. I may be getting OFR and Uncharted 2 but both can't measure up with any dogfighting.

Yeah there are helos in the game but remember it is an FPS that sprouted wings, so air to air will be weak. The only game to get the air-to-air combat great in a snadbox enviroment was Warhahk and that is because it was a flight game that sprouted a ground war.


Unless the two can match up with air-to-air combat IL-2 will still be my mainstay.

I completely undertsand your concerns and I am a little dissappointed in the lack of realistic players on line BUT with some patches (Bf109 cockpit!!!!!!!!) I'll be playing a while. It is quite simply a unique game with nothing like it on the horizon. I've met some seriously awesome people playing this game so far trk29, irrelevant, haitch 40, seekatze, Das Reich 2, zeroptimus, edal86 etc etc these guys are GOOD and are making me better. If anybody wants to fight some of us VAS boys you better holler fast before we really get our shit together cuz once we do its over!!!

Mwahaha MWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!


As for MW2 I'm pretty pumped but again its different... I am very excited about the 11 kill streak feature which allows you to gun down your opponents from an AC130 smokewagon!!!!

I know I'm late to this forum party, but I feel genuinely honored to be counted among you guys. Especially with someone calling me a good pilot. I for one sir, will be playing this game for a very long time, and you can count on tearing up the skies with me. Never before has a game captured my passion for flying like Sturmovik has. And while I know it's hard to find a game online...it's pilots like you guys that make the multiplayer the best I've ever played. I've had amazing dogfights, memorable matches, I talk about it all the time at work. Sturmovik is a permanent addition to my collection of games. And since it has came out, it has not left my PS3. That will change a bit when Borderlands comes out, but it will be back in and giving me amazing game play. I will fully support this game in any way I can. I take every chance I can to sell Sturmovik to customers at work. I will buy any DLC, no matter the cost (Although free never hurt anyone, except the developers I suppose...), I will do my best to promote the multiplayer community by hosting great matches and playing fair and honorable. I will do everything I can do to keep this game a great one for me and everyone else. And with people like us to support this game...it will never fade away. It will never die.

We will stand by Sturmovik. She will never die.

Thanks man! It was GREAT flying with you the other night... and I agree, once we get our shit together... beware!

P.S. I personally think edal86 owns the skies. TRK and yourself are amazing in the air, but edal has completely owned me in the past. LOL. I love flying with you guys.
