Lock On: Modern Air Combat Demo

[Sep 27, 2003, 10:47 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

A playable demo for Lock On: Modern Air Combat is now available, offering the chance to fly the unfriendly skies of the upcoming jet combat simulator. The demo offers the chance to take the controls of either the A-10 Warthog or the MiG-29 Fulcrum. Word is: "This demo is created from Beta code of the project and is not representative of the final code. There are known bugs in the demo and frame rates have not been fully optimized." The demo is a 123 MB download, available from 3D Gamers, Computer Games Online, Filerus, Gamer's Hell, and Worthplaying.

I agree, not bad but not good. A tutorial is REQUIRED for something with this steep of a learning curve, took forever just to figure out how to get the weapons on target. Turning off a few effects boosts the framerate dramatically, but it definitely has the feature-set going for it.

BTW, it is a mirage that flies past and rams a missle up your ass, but I can't take him on either

And yeah, the rudder is MESSED.

Don't get me wrong, give me a few days once I figure everything out and I'll prolly enjoy the hell out of it. After all the delays this has gone thru I would expect a slight bit more polish, but I'm still excited for the november release.
