Flight sims

Users who are viewing this thread

So I've just inherited a pretty nice joystick, I'd like to try it out on a good flying game. I've heard good things about IL2 Sturmovik, and I think I can find it for cheap. Anybody play any good flight games lately?
 
I used to play flight simulator 2002. It's pretty good.

I stopped playing it since i lost interest in it thanks to the Total War series
 
Try Falcon 4 for a good modern war sim; you can download further realism mods if need be.

MS FlightSim 2004 is da tingz if you want all-around realism and has tons of sites where you can download addons.

May not be what exactly you seek, but Descent: Freespace I-II are good games. But they are space-flight sims, not earth-flight. Still, I like them. alot.

Just wanted to point out that Descent isnt a SIM!! :grin:
 
Descent is a Sim in the same way that a VW Bus is a plumber's van. They both drive, but one is full of technical detail, and the other is full of patchouli and alcohol.

Uhm. If what you mean is, it's not a SIM becouse it is not a simulation of something for real, well yes. It's imaginary of course.

But if you mean its not a sim since its a shoot'em up, there may be a misunderstanding. There is Descent Series and Descent: Freespace Series. Descent is afaik a pure shootemup while Freespace uses the whole keyboard (some keys twice/thrice) to play properly.

Well, yes. A lot of keys doesnt make it a good sim, but since im not a sim. player it was a sim for me. Maybe hardcore sim players wouldnt consider it a real sim, i dont know:smile:
 
Orbiter Space Flight Simulator

Holy crap, that's awsome!

I'm well aware of the Descent series, had the first one when it came out (guess that makes me old).

Falcon 4, Strike Fighter Project 1, FS2004, cool, I'll make sure to check these out.

I'm most interested in WW2 era fighter sims, modern stuff is cool too. Thanks for the suggestions!

you must try IL2 strumvik its really fun! but its really hard on hard *dhu*
