Platty Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I'm really getting into this game, infact I love it. However I have turned off sensor controls, Can't be bothered with it. So much better using the analog stick! Is that wrong of me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 I've got a question. I've seen an advert in a mag which says there are two control options: - Guide plane with the pointer - Use nunchuck as a flight stick Is this true? IGN made it sound as if only the pointer mode was in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 I've got a question. I've seen an advert in a mag which says there are two control options:- Guide plane with the pointer - Use nunchuck as a flight stick Is this true? IGN made it sound as if only the pointer mode was in the game. I read the review in the Ninty mag saying there are indeed 2 control types. To be fair I should know as I have had the game since it launched but havent got around to playing it yet. Platty seems well happy with it though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris the great Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 its a fun game, little annoying, i have minor issues, like when you go through a check point, you continue with the health you had when you reached, even if you die. as you can't repair damage this means you somtimes have to re do most of the level, its often hard to avoid damage, so you can try as many times as you like but the level becomes practicaly impossible. i also got annoyed with sensitivity issues, accidently move the remote to far and the plane is headed for the sea while you franticaly try to correct your course. oh, and alot of the ground textures are reminisant of the N64, especialy in the first couple of levels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePigMarcher Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Got my copy of this morning. Have done the first few missions and am enjoying it , although landing on the carrier at the end of mission 1-3 took more than a few attempts and was extremely frustrating. Controls seem OK , although the Nunchuk doesn't seem too responsive and the wingman controls are a bit awkward. A bit more time will get this sorted out though , and will mess around with the professional mode settings to see if this a better way to control things. It does appear to be a nice action packed little game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rokhed00 Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 I'm pissed off with this mission where you have to stop some missiles hitting a bridge, I take out the launchers but can never find the missiles before they hit the bridge. Where the fuck are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where the fuck are they? ah, they arnt heade for the brige, there headed for the nemisis, you usualy see the first after the cutscene, the rest ar ahead of that. i can't remember the compas direction, but if you head out over the see from were the launchers are, you will find the missles, and your gonna want to speed up. fuckers got some head start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 I'm really getting into this game, infact I love it. However I have turned off sensor controls, Can't be bothered with it. So much better using the analog stick! Is that wrong of me? Strangely enough, i'm getting more into it as well, seems to get better the more you play it! It's damn hard though. Although, i'm not sure if turning the motion controls would make the game a little more...i don't know...dull for me? It's very action-packed i give it that, but it adds to the game the motion controls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuwii Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Chris the great do you reckon the f-22 raptor will do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris the great Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 hum, the raptor is alright, i chose the one were you can lock onto two targets at once, that works well, dosent kill em strainght away but it scatters them and buys you time. dunno if you have the missles that lock onto 4 planes yet, they rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much better using the analog stick! Is that wrong of me? I found the game to be surprisingly good. Although it's no Ace combat :/ Ace combat even looks miles better. I also think the best controls are the no " sensor controls". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaggle64 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Just bought this. I love the sensor controls, you need a steady hand but once you've grasped it it just make the whole thing such a fluid joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Very fun game - the default controll scheme on pro mode works a treat. Still not used to all the D-Pad controls, or how to release flares. There also seems to be plenty to unlock, and the campaign seems a decent length. But I think I've spent too much on games - this is my 11th Wii game.

Konfucius Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 I finally ordered it over amazon. If I pre-ordered I would have gotten it for 35€ but I decided to wait for the reviews and some user views on here but by then it went up to 45€ and didn't drop so I decided to wait. It still hasn't dropped but I couldn't resist any longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saminthehat Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 So what do you lot think? Should I get it or wait for all the big titles (SSB, Super Paper Mario, Metroid etc.). Note: All is not an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get it, it's people like you that fuel the myth that there are no good games for the Wii. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaggle64 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 It's not a must have but I'd certainly recommend it, a good thick slab of pacey, explosion filled hoo-hah to be sure. The flying itself actually works magnificently well with the Wiimote, so you can take this as a promising indication of things to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, while the game isnt a must have, its certanly fun, and shows how well ported 3rd party games could work on the wii. this isprecisely what the\wii needs, games that keep gamers buying and playing beetween the big name games.

antster1983 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Yeah, it's more a 4* game than 5*. But it's still a lot of fun! Full kudos to Codemasters and IR Gurus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
