|
 |
Quote: | Ubisoft will be releasing a four-player co-op futuristic flight combat sim called Tom Clancy's HAWX this Fall:
Ubisoft and Tom Clancy games are like the peanut butter and chocolate of the games industry; the two go together naturally. Gamers who are already familiar with the Splinter Cell and Rainbow Six series have a new Tom Clancy game to consider this fall. Tom Clancy's HAWX (that's short for High-Altitude Warfare...X?) is flying onto PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 this fall.
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.

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.
Fortunately, you won't have to fight alone. HAWX supports four-player jump in co-op throughout the campaign. There is also a Vs. mode where up to 16 players can battle online for experience points and in-game cash, which is used to unlock new weapons.

Sounds like it's gonna be an arcade flight sim, which doesn't work at all IMO.

Hard subject for me, for one i like that new air combat games are being developed but on the other hand i most likely will hate this one seeing how it's arcade etc.

If it's anywhere near Ace Combat but on PC, I'm in !
For some reason this title brings up memories of Strike Commander ... .

Some screens, one of them is prerendered no doubt
Just some info. Its the same crew that have done the Silent Hunter series (UBI Romania) that are working on this (I actually think I heard about this long time ago) So don't slag it off just yet, those guys are very dedicated!

Well, the guys that made Silent Hunter are rather hardcore when it comes to realism. Then again, if it's also for consoles they might not have much choice but to arcade it.

This is probably going to be like the other Ubi arcade WW2 shooter. It's by the same studio too.
