5.0 out of 5 stars Best Flight Simulation, July 5, 2010
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Rise of Flight: The First Great Air War - Iron Cross (DVD-ROM)
This is not a full review, just my impression of this simulator. I don't have the ICE edition, but the previous one. ICE is actually a repackage of the previous version, with more planes available by default (when planes appear, you buy them - if you want to fly them, otherwise they are in the game, but only for AI). So if you don't have the previous version, this one is the better deal. This model (pay/buy what planes you want) helps with making the new patches free.

It has the best flight models, graphics, plane models and a very detailed mission editor. A lot of work was put into it. You do need a good computer (try an i7 or a Phenom x6, this one is pretty cheap for the performance you get) and you have to be prepared to spend time configuring it - because it is a simulator, not a game. Nevertheless, it has a lot of options to help the new user (including guided shooting). It does run on 64 bit all right, unlike what a previous poster implied (i have it running on a win7...

This review is from: Rise of Flight: The First Great Air War - Iron Cross (DVD-ROM)
Rise of Flight definitely isn't an arcade flyer; it's a serious flight simulator set during WW1, flying rickety old WW1 planes. A good quality joystick is an absolute must, so if you don't have one then you'll definitely need one. This game - like almost all games - has good points and bad points, so I'll set out this review as a list of pro's and con's, so you can pick and choose what's important to you and what's not.

PRO'S:
* If you have the computing power then the graphics are beautiful; the planes and the landscape. It even has rain and snow that you may have to fly in.
* The developers are continuously working on improving and expanding the game with patches.
* You can adjust the game extensively to help the learning flyer, such as not running out of fuel or ammunition, enable autopilot, etc. It has plenty of graphics adjustments, as well.
* It has a good variety of planes available, with more being created.
* The game has an active... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Re-released with good reason. A much more complete experience., July 1, 2010
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Rise of Flight: The First Great Air War - Iron Cross (DVD-ROM)
Rise of Flight Iron Cross Edition is a re-release of the original Rise of Flight that now includes 8 flyable planes instead of 4, and 2 new multiplayer modes, with the aircraft spanning from the start of the war till it's end. The development team is expanding the single player career mode and constantly developing new aircraft which will include more scouts (fighters), and the addition of bombers/recon aircraft.

Rise of Flight has a steep learning curve and is unforgiving initially, but with a few hours of practice you can start mixing it up with others and a real sense of achievement comes out of flying this simulation.

Everyone has had issues with the game at some point, however I run the game on Win7 64bit with no problems whatsoever. The latest patch enabled higher memory use for those running 64bit systems. It is a game that is constantly being developed and improved, can't ask for much more than that when you compare it to the stagnant development in most... Read more
