Comanche 4 type sim

the_syco · 2015-12-02 12:30:44

Hey all, Anyone have any single player helicopter recommendations that I could play on a PC that would be like Comanche 4? Would prefer to play it with a joystick (Saitek X52) as opposed to kb&mouse, or a joypad.

DCS Black Shark perhaps? I can't recall anything else recent.

Black Shark is probably far to much of a beast for someone coming from Comanche 4.

Apache v Havoc and Comanche v Hokum are still decent today with the mods released over the years and would be closer to Comanche 4 in terms of gameplay. I used to play them loads years ago, they link up together as one bigger game.

You could spend a week just learning how to fly properly in Black Shark before you even consider trying to use the weapons systems effectively. Great sim though and the best chopper one around by far.

Does Apache: Air Assault support HOTAS?
