Best Fighter

[the lancaster kicks ass]

yeah, but the american fighters in the pacific could take ALLOT of damage, unlike most Jap. planes

 

[bronzewhaler82]

Four 30mm cannons? thats ALOT of damage mate - they were designed to intercept and shoot down bombers with that firepower - so what chance does a fighter stand?

 

[cheddar cheese]

oh yes, a fabtastic flight simulator for the ps2, includes such planes as the bf-109, the corsair, the aformentioned "shinden" and the swordfish 8)

it also has a jet helicopter, aint quite sure about that

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

actually most modern helocopters have jet engines

 

[Archer]

CFS2 has it too

 

[aussie jim]

EAW as well ..nice for taking out the B29s in the pacific 8) .

Best plane the fw190 series as a whole OR the spit series..but i can be indesicive so maybe the 109 series ..the 110 doesnt deserve to be on the best palne list i think tho..it was no hope against any good spit or hurri pilot ..the hurri is also up there as a good fighter..ground attack /rugged/versatile/ship duties and longevity made it a superb plane.

does anyone know any good flight sims for PS1?

Lanc..i had a ps1 a fair few years ago and there is not a good flight sim for it at all..a bunch of crappy jet sims that arent worth the money ...you need a pc with at least a geforce 2 card and you will be able to do most flight sims with it. And then you can get EAW and shoot down B17s ..or escort Lancs.

Hmmm,

As I prefer German WW2 aircraft, surely I'd be shooting them BOTH down?

Yeh...im constantly find myself in the trusty 109g/k or fw190A or D series and even the TA152 blowing the crap out of Halifaxs and Lancs Libs or Forts ..sometimes the he162 Me262 or Ta183 is a cool ride as well...and to go a different way we have a flyable B17 and B24

cheers

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

what game are we talking about again?

 

[aussie jim]

EAW man 8) European Air War ....

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

A.K.A. game with shitty ass graphics 8)

 

[Crazy]

The graphics ARE pretty bad, but how's the play aspect of the game?

 

[GermansRGeniuses]

even if its good it wont be easy playing a game that looks that bad and im too used to fb's flight model (and damage model) to start another sim now cuz itd take a while to break me into it

 

[aussie jim]

Germans are Geniuses really has no style does he... The medium distance graphics are apparently a lot better than FB (this is from EAW and FB players) The FB plane graphics are better tho in close Playability is really good now in EAW as our FM modeler has revamped nearly all of our planes and changed hitbubbles and damage models etc. over the last two months. Most of the newbies are starting to find it pretty hard to compensate for Torque etc and sideslip heh he.

He actually moved away from FB and came back to EAW as he said the Graphics in close were nicer in FB but the FMs and DMs were very average and that a lot of them were just out the window..he is more interested in how the planes fly etc than how nice the game looks..overall for a 5 year old game (going into 6 years now) i thought it didnt look that bad?

When you approaching over 100 Fortresses with 24 escorting Mustangs in an FW190 the last thing you notice is that the rivets /bolts in the cockpit arent perfect 8) .

sorry ...Rant off really..it is a vastly different experience than what most people think as there is nothing left of the original that came out of the box.

 

[cheddar cheese]

wow, that game looks sweet is it availiable in uk and what are the minimum pc requirements? 8)

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

what i wanna know is why in the bottom left it says "P-51D"?

 

[Archer]

Maybe we should get back to the best fighters...thats why I made the EAW thread (and asked why it said it was a P-51D)

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

i think the mosquito is a strong contender...........
