It seems that the game is now coming to Steam. Highly enjoyable (and free to play) game which is currenly available on Google Chrome.

Anyone else playing this?

Installed, looks really really nice, could see myself playing a lot of it. Except, no inversion yet. Thats a total deal breaker for anyone who's flight sim'd.

I have played flight games with both inverted and non-inverted so it's easy to get used to.

They have added a ton of new modes and extras recently so definately worth a look. It's not often I warm to a free game but theres more game in here than most full price titles

Cool. Must remember to check it out on my home machine!

Takes an hour to get used to then completely screws you over for every other game you play. Kind of a dealbreaker for me as well.

What retr0 said. I play inv on all games, at the moment that includes WoT and CS:GO. And flipping back and forth takes ages for me. Not worth destroying your kpd over.

How long does it take to load a map? Usually just quit after waiting a while.

Just installed. Hard to tell what's going on. Some work needs to be done with this game unless I'm doing something wrong.

It plays in windowed mode which is odd, no gfx or control options which is strange in the extreme.

I can't seem to see any personal health/shield bar.

Combat is extremely confusing, very hard to discern who is near you, I can't discern different classes except to spot a bomber. Unless it's tiered like WoT I have no idea if what I'm shooting is something I can really damage. No idea what I'm supposed to be doing as a bomber.

Despite this, it has heaps of potential. Will keep going with it to see how it turns out.

They've just added alot of updates as of today and are working on inverted controls. Seems like they are actually listening to players which is very refreshing in this day and age!

Canis Lupus · 19-05-2012, 10:23

They added customisable controls but didn't add inversion (although it doesn't bother me).

I've played it all yesterday to get a decent feel for it and frankly the more I played the less I was interested in it.

It's terribly terribly terribly repetitive, doesn't matter what game mode is active it's all the same, the 'maps' are essentially indistinguishable, it shows its browser origins badly and crucially there's almost zero feeling of skill involved in the game.

I do understand its origins and I know I'm being harsh on a F2P game but for me this game would need to be entirely rewritten to stand any chance of success, as it is, it'll likely be uninstalled tonight.

**FutureGuy** · 28-05-2012, 15:23

Right, so I played the game last night and boom...inverted controls for all!

I'm actually surprised by the difference it makes tbh. Much more natural.

I took a look at this last night - it was a pretty fun distraction that was nice to wind down at the end of the day before bed. Didn't realise it played in Chrome till I read this thread, interesting!
