Until we show the whole deal! cannot even begin to talk about how much that's going to affect WarBirds III, because people won't fully appreciate what it has to offer." Watch this space. In the words of developer Dan Neault: "Give it a little more time - the systems should be public soon. While the developers are promising great things in the future, they're playing their cards close to their chest. And even though there are land targets to take your B17 or B24 (notice the lack of British planes here), its still using the tired old formula from 2.x days. At present it's 'shoot down a plane, wash, repeat' until you're blue in the face. The other complaint is the lack of strategy in the game. While these are definitely one of the most fun aspects of the game, the lack of plane types does make for the occasional fudge or two. While this can be quite daunting for new players, IVarBirds has a dedicated staff (trainers) who'll get you over the steep learning curve - a nice little feature.īut great graphics don't mean a great game. If you want to play in the big leagues, you need to get yourself into the online arenas.
#Alt games warbirds Offline
While it has some offline content, it's just a sandpit play area to learn the basics. WarBirds Ulthough, is an online thoroughbred. Sure, you can get up to 32 players on a LAN or small server, but that's your lot. IL2 is first and foremost an offline single-player game. The other facet of WarBirds that separates it from H2 is the style of gameplay. The only thing holding back the addition of new aircraft is design and development. The game engine had a maximum number of aircraft that could be added. However, while the old game had more than 50 different aircraft, WarBirds has less than half that number.īut the key word here 'for now'.

On the one hand the full 30 cockpits, tracer smoke and a host of other features are a huge step forward.
#Alt games warbirds upgrade
The upgrade from the 2.x incarnation ha6 been a bit of a double-edged sword. Sturvomik is slated for release in November, but WBIH is in continual development, 40 which means continual improvements and downloads. While it's still not quite up to IL-2 Sturmovik standards yet, it's very close. The first thing that really makes you sit up and beg are the graphics. And whereas WarBirds II was a seamless transition from original WarBirds, the third instalment has had not so much a facelift, as full-frontal plastic surgery. So the latest sim to take to the sky is WarBirds III. The flight sim is back, and it's back with a vengeance. For a genre that was virtually dead in the water last year, 2001 has seen a virtual U-turn in its fortune. It's an intel ship! Let it cloak so it can alpha strike!Īnyway, it's a decent ship to run as a torp boat but it's not gonna break any dps records.Aces High. I feel like this is the biggest let-down. It doesn't have a lot of science seats, unfortunately, so you can't really sci torp it like you could with, say, the Courageous, and your ONLY lt cmr sci slot is going to be unusable because your'e gonna be running concentrate firepower III.Īlso it can't cloak, despite being intel. It's got commander engineering, so not ideal, but it's got intel spec, and you can probably pull off some ionic turbulence/kinetic magnet shinanigans. It's got 5/3 weapon layouts - which is good. So that alone qualifies it to be a half-decent torp boat. It's got a lt cmr command seat, which means you can slot in concentrate firepower III. But I think your question is whether the ship is worth running as a torp build or if this is basically trait fodder. The trait is REALLY, REALLY, REALLY good, and very much ideal for a torp build.
Well, first, let's get the trait out of the way.
