Posted February 24, 200916 yr I've seen the previews to this game and it is going to be sick and plus it will be released on PC as well. So who's going to get this Dogfight simulator which is looking to be a great game on March 5. Downside for PC is that its a Ubisoft game. Their last couple of R6 games the support has sucked. http://hawxgame.us.ubi.com/
February 24, 200916 yr depends on if there going to do some of the same things as what microsoft did in their combat flight sim with online missions for each map and allow custom downloaded planes.
February 24, 200916 yr I was hearing about this game awhile ago. It really caught my interest. Might wait for reviews, but looks like it is a possible buy.
February 25, 200916 yr I'm getting this game for the PS3. If enough Armory members play it, I might get it for the PC.
March 18, 200916 yr It does seem like a cool game. I played the demo and I do I have the full version for PC. However, I have yet to play it. I'm a busy woman. ... No but seriously. I probably won't be playing any BF2 this week. I have a lot of work to do.
March 19, 200916 yr I really like the game, but I don't think I am going to get it unless they get rid of the 3rd person target cam. I want to play with Assistance off, but it forces you to that stupid view. Otherwise the game looks well, done. The review don't seem to hold up the multiplayer or campaigns though.
March 19, 200916 yr the game is great I have played for 3hrs and a senior master sgt3 or something like that
March 26, 200916 yr I hope we all know about the bonus airplanes you can get via VIP and preorder. There are some differences between the PC and the console versions. At least as far as unlockables and bonuses go. For example, on the console version you need a VIP code to unlock the XA-20 Razorback, which is unlockable through finishing campaign on the PC version. Additionally, the Saab-35 Draken (VIP code) is said to be available only for the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions. The A-12 Avenger II, FB-22 Strike Raptor and F-18 HARV are available on all versions, though via pre-order codes. However, the PC version of HAWX has quite a few more secrets. I made screenshots of these secret aircrafts, so behold: http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/7314/hawxaircrafts2s.jpg
March 27, 200916 yr Looks like the PC version gets more aircraft. I might get the PC version. Anybody else?
March 27, 200916 yr Already have it and have unlocked quite a few of those listed Have you considered forming a squadron? Sounds like a great idea. Loved the PS3 version.
March 27, 200916 yr Author I would love to form a squadron problem is online support sucks until they can fix the dump problems with it.
March 27, 200916 yr I would love to form a squadron problem is online support sucks until they can fix the dump problems with it. Oh. That sucks. Online play was a breeze on the PS3 (I also assume the same for the XBox 360).
March 27, 200916 yr Author Right now the PC version of the game is going through some serious problems right now all the joysticks have a severe dead zone so you can't finesse your the joystick to aim the cannon even if you go into your settings (something with the game). Supposedly there was supposed to be a patch but their support page has been down all week. More than likely it won't be fixed. The only online mode i can get to work is CO-OP even that is hit or miss.
March 27, 200916 yr This game only gets a 5 out of a 10 from me this game is not that good and here is the reasons 1st this is a flying game why does it fell like i am not flying it is way to slow is it the frame rate not sure but i do not fell like a flying. 2nd for the story in this game what story it does not have one and the voice over work it is ok at best. 3rd for $50 bigs one it is way over priced for me it should have more in it then just nice looking planes nice but that is it??? the game play is missing for me big time. for me the only way you should buy this game is when it goes on sale for $25 or less. ace combat 1 was way better in the late 90s go buy it for 10 bucks if you like to play flying combat games.
March 27, 200916 yr Already have it and have unlocked quite a few of those listed Are you sure you have unlocked those, because they are not exactly unlockable as far as I know. The reason why I listed them as secret is because they do exist in the game but you cannot unlock them by finishing the campaign or reaching level 40 (though there are level requirements for using them). Additionally, they do not appear on the "All Planes" list where you can see all aircrafts including those you have not unlocked. The secret aircrafts are like those that are unlocked by either VIP or Pre-order codes. They are hidden. I wonder why Ubisoft would do that.
