I noticed wings of prey og GoG.
does anyone know if it has skirmish as well as a campaign?
Was it any good? The cost $12.99 USD Supposed to be special edition, no idea what that is but the price is right it is worth getting fo rthe library. But where I would get the time to try it is another matter.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Regards

IMO, it's a fun non-serious simulator with absolutely gorgeous graphics. It has campaigns, but they aren't all that good.

At that price, it's definitely a good buy, especially as you can get it from GOG without any nasty DRM crap.

Just don't expect it to offer anything like WOFF does! smile

I concur with Hasse. I enjoy it just for the fun of "quick combat" style missions. Immersive campaign? No. Fun shooting stuff down in a fast, fluid, beautifully rendered environment...absolutely. smile

Markl, you may not get it from the GoG version, but if you get any popups from 'yuplay' let me know and I'll help you disable it. Yuplay was, I believe, their online server/vendor and since that's no longer operative it's just annoying.

CatKnight, if yuplay is no longer supported, it was required to play it might make flying it tricky for many of us, is there a patch for that?

Polovski, all:

Go into the game's folder. There is a subfolder called 'yuplay'.

Call it something else.

It no longer looks for it. You won't be able to do any of the multiplayer stuff, but with the server offline you wouldn't be able to anyway.

Well I have it installed now, and setting up the joystick is not very easy.

I notice a lot of locked content. Does anyone have a save file that unlocks everything as I a never going to have time to complete the campaigns and from what I have read in the forums some of the missions are very hard.

But the scenery is very nice.

If you want to change your aircraft skins, you can grab it here : https://www.flickr.com/groups/wopskinners

install skinchanger tools first (around 1gb)
