BF2S Forums [Combat Flight simulators]

combat flight sim series

The combat flight sims from Microsoft are TERRIBLE, weapons shoot like lasers, bullets do hardly any damage and your character levels up. Its a crappy mix of arcade and simulation which makes the game kinda lame. IL2 Sturmovik is your best bet for flight sims, most realistic planes and ballistics as well as decent graphics by todays standards. This is assuming you want a WW2 flight sim, if no "Lock on Modern Air Combat" is a good modern day jet fighter sim. Flight simulator X is a marvelous sim but whoops the crap out of anything less then a supercomputer.

IL@ Sturmovik 1946 is the newest in the series. It contains many planes that follow the "what if the war continued" scenario. While many planes that were seen are in the game some that were still in development are showcased as well. Realism is a trademark of the series with the dynamic campaign, so if you blow up alot of Me-262a's then expect to see fewer and fewer of em in the skies, blow up lots of airfields and your ground attack missions wont have you scouting the skies as you make your runs. The damage modeling is simply fantastic as well with low caliber bullets just simply ricocheting off heavily armored planes doing no damage while the heavier cannon shells rip gaping holes in fuselages and wings. It is really the best of the best when it comes to WW2 flight simulators. Only thing is, its all on the Russian front...which is actually kinda cool.

Falcon 4.0 is suppose to be a top noych game and based of of the real flight controls of the F16 .....26 letters and 4 functions per letter  its a keyboard nightmare...LOL

Pacific Fighters is a good WWII fighter sim.  Its kind of old though.  It's made by the same people that made lock on.

Lock-On: Modern Air Combat is awesome, lots of planes and multiplayer. Ofcourse simulation so the weapon systems are good.

I've heard only praise about this game. Im thinking of buying it myself if I see it in stores.

It's a very fun game, but I don't know what he measn my lots of planes.  There's only eight in the game, and only two of which are American planes.
