Damn, thats weird, i saw one F-16 with Tail code AN(our interceptors), Rio-Niteroi Bridge, Maracanã Stadium, Cristo redenteor statue and Pão de Açucar mountain , it's a ficional scenario or a Rio de Janeiro.

Yup, you've got it right...they've really placed the air war over RJ. I'm wondering if they're gonna portrait our drug lords firing at those things using their M-16's, Ak's and so on... :biggrin:

You play as a Mercenary IIRC. So the fact that an F-16 has that same tail code or that a Rafale B pilot has an F-35 helmet and his co pilot has the JHMCS is not surprising. The game takes place with the closing of GRAW and is the prelude to the Clancy book End War.

Developed by Ubisoft's Bucharest Studio, HAWX lets you pilot more than 50 planes in dogfights across the sky. Set in 2012, HAWX imagines a world that has become increasingly dependant on private military companies (PMCs). With PMCs increasingly gaining power, we sit on the precipice of a global conflict. Sounds like a good enough reason to hop in your fighter jet and shoot down some bogies.

 

HAWX features an Enhanced Reality System (ERS), which is meant to make even the average pilot feel like Iceman. ERS includes radars, incoming missile detection, an anti-crash system, damage control system, tactical map, information relay, weapons trajectory control and allows players to give commands to their AI squadron. With the Assistance Mode flipped on, the ERS will put pilots into a maximum safety mode. Think of it like having all the assists turned on in a racing game. You get more freedom and control with Assistance Mode off, but you will also be at greater risk without the full protection of the ERS.

I'm sure it will be an arcade type "SIM"

 

 

That's what I'm affraid of. Another "Ace Combat" style simulator which really doesn't simlulate what it's like to fly a fighter jet. Since this is going to be made for console systems as well, I'm sure control functions will be quite limited to what you would really be able to have in a PC only sim. Like Vlamik said, it's probably more eye candy than immersiveness.

Actually there's gonna be a version of Il-2 for consoles. It's in developmnt at the moment but I saw the trailers at Russian game dev conference... Simpified, of course :biggrin:

I think the controls will be dumbed down but large maps and good 3D models coupled with modern lighting effects could make it quite a nice game.
