Wings of Prey?

It's an arcade game in every sense of the meaning.
Here is great representation of the game.

From TomcatVIP: MP was a burden or a plea to play with strange individuals gaming the play with strange FM, UFO moves or simply ground scratching flight. As an admin it was not even possible to ban them as an hosting server.

I'm not sure as to when your experience comes from, but in the two years since release the game has come a long way. You can certainly kick people from your own server if you don't want to have them in your game.

TomcatVIP: But moreover the fact that we had to pay for the patch that could cure all the basics bugs the game have encountered was simply a shame

Don't know what you are talking about, I've never had to pay a cent for any update in that game and there were many.

Seems to me that your opinion is somewhat dated. Your video is from the Beta, more than two years ago. Yes you can fly this game with Arcade settings if you want to (including icons, sounds, music, etc.) but you don't have to. It's far from an Arcade game when you play it at full settings, or would you say that the video I posted above shows you Arcade gameplay?

Whatever peoples opinions regards WOP that video has to be the worst example with the fixed cockpit view and does not do it any justice. Visually it's far better than that. Anyone thinking about this title should check later vids with headtracking and POV zoom enabled.

I am curious about the numerous updates since I last fired it up (some are over 4Gb!) so in the process of updating my copy to see all the changes.

I played it found it too arcrady, tiny maps it's just a dogfight game... Air sarts etc and then if they did use large maps they would have to reduce the quality of maps. Compare what you can do in the game to 1946 even it's clear which one is given the title arcade and the other sim.

Even the new one will be getting tiny maps which makes me wonder hy bother with a heavy bomber????

Misleading it can be customized like Il2 1946

As stated above it can't be compared with CLOD but it is not an arcade despite that with lower realism settings it can be played as an arcade.

It's easy..

CloD is a simulator first a video game second.
WoP is a video game first a simulator second.

WoP also serves as a gateway to CloD, so it's all good.

Im sure they will get it out for pc... Birds of Steel that is.. some more screens..

Hey I own WoP myself. If it’s a flight sim I usually buy it anyway just to support it.

Yes you can use TrackIR.
Yes you don't have to have the music playing.
Perhaps that is a bad choice of video.
I have no complaints about WoP.
Everyone has their likes/dislikes.
I would encourage you to buy it you'll love it.

The dark fade-out shading in the cockpit and on the edge of the framing drives me nuts.

Tavignon,

It puzzles me where you found those nice screenshots. Checked on the link you posted but couldn't find them. Anyway, I like them, thanks for posting!
