I still play it regularly. If the series had a campaign system, any type, I'd play it more than F4/AF.

I do, even more than LOMAC.

I have F4AF and don't use it that much, partly because of the huge amount to learn when I already am very into a lot of other sims, and also because I'm not real impressed be the speed of the graphics for what you're getting. Lomac is much prettier than Falcon, and smoother, too.

The Flanker series/Lomac has the best sensation of speed, at any height, of any flight sim past or present imo.

I meant the speed of the framerates, but that too. I've been trying to get more into LOMAC, but the fps is not good in multiplayer and it's a lot of flying around then suddenly getting shot by a surface ship. Last night I spent two hours with a couple wankers who had comms and awacs on one side and nothing going on on the other. Hmm, why would anyone want to fly with these people is beyond me. I'd really like to get together and fly 2.51 on Hyperlobby with some people. We could use comms and do some ground pounding (with radar) and AA stuff.

Anytime you want to fly F2 online, give me a yell.

If the timing works out, I'd like to too.

I played Flanker 2.5 once. It was awesome game. It is similar to LOMAC, but different from LOMAC. You can fly SU-33, MiG-29, and SU-25 on LOMAC, but you can only fly SU-27 and other Sukhoi (?) variant on Flankers. However, combat mode on both games are pretty much similar. Too much complicated. Well, I have played many simulator games, especially, Flight simulator, either combat or non-combat, since I was 15 years-old. The control was easy. Now, the control is almost similar to real life. The bottom line is LOMAC is continuing from Flanker 2.5. If you could play Flanker 2.5, you could play LOMAC.

In Flanker 2.5 you can fly Su-27, Su-33, Mig-29K /naval version of Mig-29, no such in LOMAC/.

There's also ground radar, a better helmet sight, better landing physics, and less canned cobras. The stalls are more canned, but if you want flankers you're better off with Flanker, I think. It's also less glitchy and runs a lot faster. And you get R-77's. The Flankers are horribly disadvantaged without active AAMs in Lomac.

You think they're disadvantaged in Lomac, you should see Allied Force, and it's not just Flankers \:\)

I have it I play it
but not ehough to have memorized all the keys I need to.
mostly play strike fighters good group of online fellas
some il-2 fb an pacific fighters but too many vultures and noone willing to help a noob enjoy the game just people looking for easy kills
I enjoy janes ww2 fighters online alot as well again great bunch of online guys to crash and burn with
fighters anthology is dated but playable and fun
and more good fellas too

but if there were some regulars on h/l in the flanker room I would be more than happy to let them kick me around the sky

see ya there


There is no such thing as too much firepower

I know it'S a bit late, but I'm still looking for some people to fly 2.51 online. It has more A/G capabilities than in Lomac. Maybe we can meet in HL, weekdays would be good, just for some testing. Anyone who's interested, send me a message to ICQ 858-90-205 or pof1@freenet.de!!!

Greetings,
Lobo
