3.0 out of 5 stars Learning Curve Too Steep, November 23, 1999

This review is from: Flanker 2.0 (CD-ROM)

I have been into combat Fltsims for 10 years and have good equipment, a Dell P3-500. I loved the original SU27 but this one has me buffaloed. I have been into this game about two hours a day for the last ten days. When I lose the enemy on radar I can never find him again. Other than shooting an enemy a distance with a missile, I have lost all my fights. SU27 2.0 needs a cheat screen like some other sims have that enable the user to simplfy the radar, etc. I'm out of it until a patch is available to do that. 2.0 has a lot going for it but I don't want to make a career of finding out how to make it work. The manual offers minimal help. Rotsaruck if you buy it, unless you are more of a wizard than I am.

I don't buy many computer games because I find I lose interest after playing a while. Flanker 2.0 is different. It's level of complexity is just right for me...for performing various tasks, because your opponents are very, very good. I have never flown a fighter, don't expect to; but I'd say this is pretty realistic. And even on the VERY minimal system I have (Celeron 500, 64M 8M AGP card) the frame rate is sort of acceptable (though for large missions it tends to be jerky). I'm actually considering buying a real graphics card just for this game. I've already bought a joystick, just to play this game - strapped for cash as I am ! If you like flight sims, I'd say BUY THIS ! I'm impressed!
