@SimHangerFS Thank you for the coverage! We appreciate it. We soft launched about a year ago. We are currently building our prototype and some great assets to get off the ground. We will release Combat Pilot's Midway themed title in several phases over time. We also continue to build our team and work on our physics, flight models, damage model, geospatial technology, sound and more. We have a long road ahead, but we are dedicated to the cause. You mentioned Jason Williams is heading up the project. Jason was the former CEO of 777 Studios that made Rise of Flight: The First Great Air War and then was the long time Executive Producer of IL-2 Sturmovik: Great Battles series at 1C Game Studios. He's now teamed up Carlos Flors and his team at Barbedwire Studios (BWS) and their new subsidiary called Entropy.Aero which will be responsible for Combat Pilot development. BWS is the developer of the awesome Gates of Hell real-time tactical series of games. We hope to see some of you at the FS Expo in June in Las Vegas! Please visit www.combatpilot.com for more info and visit our forum and Discord.
Suscribed. lets see how it evolve. Good luck
Will be also on linux? :D
Will there be clickable Cockpit? at least enough to cold start? I realised I play less Il-2 since I got used to cold starting my war birds in dcs, which really puts me in the immersion from the start.
At last a flight sim that covers the pacific AGAIN !! Can't wait and hope that VR is implemented from the start !!
hardcore flight sim? Well... I'm in. I can't do the arcade stuff like WarThunder. IL2 was my thang for a loooong time, now DCS is getting some of my hours. Make it as real as possible, and I'll be there to put holes in things while hanging upside down.
I’m VERY GLAD ITS A STAND ALONE SIM PLATFORM. We need new fresh ideas in this genre !
There is certainly more room for a combat flight sim. I remember microsoft combat simulator. And Comanche...al buckets of fun 🎉
Dcs
@@chikokishi7030 DCS definitely needs some company competing against them. They have become complacent and fail to deliver every promise they make.
@chikokishi7030 that one too, but in all honesty, that's a pretty hard one to master and only for the die hard flight simmers.
@@channelvr1293 I mean... its a sim. lol So yes.
High Tech Creations has a WWII Aviation/Tank/Naval war game out called "Aces High III" which at one time had a large and steady participation. Up until 2016, Friday and Saturday night participation maxed out it's player's capacity of 400, but corporate decisions that were not being asked by the majority of its fanbase, and instead was seeking to introduce a whole new platform which allowed for improved graphics and VR, while not addressing it's 2 biggest issues, cheating and spying by players, took what was once a great game (with its fair share of justifiable complaints) has not turned into just a shadow of its former self. There was talk that maybe Covid Lockdowns who help bring many of it's former players back, but the lockdowns did very little to help increase its already slumped numbers.
My body is so ready for a Pacific War flight sim. Too many WW2 sims focus overwhelmingly on the fronts with the Germans. I've wanted a career mode (prefferably dynamic) centered on Pacific carrier ops.
There's an old sim Heroes of the Pacific; you might like that one.
@@dogfightdiary5712 Heroes of the Pacific was absolutely not a sim. I enjoyed it back in the day, but its Ace Combat in the Pacific. Nothing wrong with Ace Combat, Im a super fan of that series. But its not what I'm looking for. I want something like Falcon 4.0.
Lat time I saw a dogfighting game based on the Pacific Theater of WWII was Sierra’s Aces of the Pacific back in the 90s. I was addicted to that game.
The only thing bad about this sim is that it's in early development and we won't see it for quite a while. I'm anxiously awaiting this one!
Great news. I was a fan of both MS Combat FS, and Il-Stormovik back in the day. I'll certainly give it a try when it comes out
Ah, the nostalgia of Combat Flight Simulator 2 just hit me watching this - still remember some of the missions in the F4F (strafing Japanese cargo ships, intercepting Vals, trying to protect TBD Devastators). Actually still have the original game files from the CD's on my backup external drive which I've carried over from hard drive to hard drive since 2003. CD's have gotten lost to time, though.
Will most certainly be keeping an eye on this and get back into flight sim if the chance arises.
I still have have the discs. But no disc player on my super duper gaming computer.
Taking off at Henderson field iron grating on the runways, the Marianas , man I can’t wait!
I'm a huge WW1 & WW2 flight sim enthusiast. This looks very promising. I hope it's not like War Thunder or any of those other "Arcadey" type games. I love realism. I can't wait to see what they come up with.
Back in the day, one of the first games I bought with saved up pocket money was Aces of the Pacific by Sierra/Dynamix. Four or five stiffy disks if memory serves. So this will definitely be something I'll be checking out once its released. Thanks for sharing.
Its a modern day Pacific Fighters in my opinion. Looks very good and vibrant.
This looks very good - it recalls Sierra's Aces of the Pacific and Microprose's Pacific Air War. Early days, but I hope it eventually expands to include USAAF and IJA aircraft. The Ki-84 'Frank' was one of the best fighters of the war, hobbled in the Philippines by poor quality fuel and lack of spares.
Instant buy! Finally something resembling the 1942 pacific air war old sim.
That was the best!
You mean IL2 1946 Pacific fighters ua-cam.com/video/lKejuETuDLs/v-deo.html
I was going to bring that up. I loved 1942. I was told 25 years ago or better, that someone was working on a new version of 1942. I've spent years waiting, but......
I'm old and don't like multiplayer scenarios. I prefer to play single flights. Too old to play complucated games. I'm always dead or dying.
Could be a great replacment for the previous MS Combat Flight Simulator series. If they eventually release a Battle of Britain version, I would go for it.
That would be something! :)
@@SimHangerFS Yeah, ever since I was a teen, the RAF pilots of that battle have been my heroes. Part of the reason I am a confirmed anglophile.
You should check out IL2 Cliffs of Dover The Blitz, wonderful game, sales make it dirt cheap and by far its been the most immerssive BoB simulator ive played with all the planes having clickable cockpits etc
Yeah me too, I get it with all the tech stuff firing missiles BVR , but there’s something about getting behind your enemies with six 50 cal MG’s and blasting them . An airial battle to see who gets the upper hand, especially against the zero can’t wait to see the way they handle in this new simulation.
Combat Pilot is a breath of fresh air, sounds really promising will definitely be following watching out for future vids updates..
I am very interested! Wonderful news!
What's most exciting is not only the theatre and developers but also the fact we will FINALLY get a new combat flight sim with a modern graphics engine, not an old cobbled together engine that keeps getting new lipstick (DCS, IL2).
I wouldn't call DCS'engine an old cobbled together engine though...
@oczhaal And what are you basing that assertion on? It's from 1999...the developers themselves have called it that 😉
@@karlhungus545 But the engine kept evolving and getting enhanced over time. It's now supporting multithreading as well and will receive a major update later this year.
@oczhaal Yes, but it's still an old core engine which is the reason it always takes so long to enhance it. They still don't have Vulkan and they have admitted the struggle it's been to update the AI in such an old engine. The AI is horrible.
Amen to that! Well said.
IL-2 Sturmovik 1946 (pacific fighters) vibes. The ones who set the standard for all sims that came after.
Extremely interested in this! Looking forward to seeing them progress. Thanks for the info.
Jason can finally make his WWII Pacific theater flight sim. I'm wondering if creative differences led to JW leaving IL-2? Jason is my flight sim godfather. LoL, My first flight sim was Rise of Flight. Moved to the IL BOX series, then DCS. Haven't looked back since DCS, but this title is under my radar.
Hearing the word IL2 Sturmovik brings so many memories. I spent so much time playing that game when it first came out, it didn't require a supercomputer to run It and it was like a revelation for me. I remember the sound of every aircraft was the same but later became so popular that many mods came by over the years, I hope this one will be as good.
Thank you for putting this on my radar. Looking forward to seeing this development. Extra exiting is the link to Il2, I love that game.
I played the heck outta European Combat Flight Simulator and Combat Flight Simulator and I'm dying for something like this. Bring it!
Thanks for the update. I'll keep an eye on this one, for sure.
Ok, CFS 2/Il 2 vibes here. Realistic flight model, interesting scenario and somewhat cinematic story driven experience....that´s all what I ask :)
It looks great ( truck is a GMC CCKW ) IL-2 was magnificent series
I’ve been following this Sim and it looks very promising. Thanks for the update.
I’m intrigued. Keep my eye on this one. Thanks for sharing.
Looks great will definitely be watching out for this one
Exciting news! I feel some Pacific Theatre AuthentiKit controls on the way....
To be competitive with MSFS, they need to sell an incomplete product, put out endless updates through a single server, then slow that server down to a few bits per hour.
Looking forward to see how it goes.
I am interested
Flying Leathernecks yes please!
Good info, SHFS. Congratulations of tracking it down.
This is Exciting news
I think this would be right up my alley!
This is my favorite theatre of combat flying more than modern sims, or even WWII in Europe. WWII IN THE PACIFIC is my favorite. I’ve flown MS Combat flight sim 2 loved it mostly because it’s dedication to historic missions. I cut my tweet in combat flight simulation on IL2 Sturmovik, and it’s Pacific add ons. It’s nice to know some one is still around doing new stuff who was associated with IL2. So far It looks beautiful. So to The developers, Please Hurry Up. There’s a great big hole in combat flight simulation that needs to be filled, and Sirs you are on the threshold of filling it. So Hurry up let’s go!
Set in the Pacific and he says its a LITTLE BIT INTERESTING?? He's obviously not a history buff or DCS, iL2 player. We've been begging for this for since iL2'46. Aye.
I think it's said in irony.
Yep, reverse psychology :)
@@paulkirkland3263 Simmers are often on the spectrum. 😅
LOL...this company/project was started by Jason Williams after he left as Executive Producer of IL2. Pretty sure he played his own sim a few times. 😆
@@denniserwin7420 the content creator ? Read slower.
I'm interested! Looks like it has lots of potential
Sounds great
Super excited to see this released.
This spins my wheels to no end.
I would definitely look into buying this!!
As much as I'd love a new sim covering this era and subject, I'd love to buy copies of some of those CAD files as STL's even more so I can feed my 3D printer. Those AA guns are tight.
I do hope we get now finally a new benchmark in non-arcade and serious combat fly sims. Just like MSFS 2020 did. Since the release of RoF and Il2-Clod not much did happen.
Finally some new WWII sim information. I'm going to keep my eyes on this one for sure. Thanks.
Thanks very much Mark for this very interesting info. I think I’ll be in LAS at Fsexpo and to be able to meet with you.
Look forward to it 😊
Great news! Remember Jane's series combat SIM? ❤
Yes…but you’re giving away your age 😂
Ah! Janes WW2 Fighters…I’ve still got it…works great on my new rig
Defo in !!! :)
I'm Really Surprised That Those "Retro" Sims Haven't Been "Redux". Since The Ground Work Is Already There, I Would Think It Wouldn't Take That Much To Bring It To Market. But I Digress, Its Nice To See A Pacific Theater. The Only Other Ones That Come To Mind Is Aces Over The Pacific, CFS2 And Pacific Fighters. So Yeah, Putting The Cash Aside For The Release.
Exciting!
This makes me think of a sim from a loooooong time ago! Aces of the Pacific
I remember it well..😊
I also like that they included the Brewster Buffalo (atleast in the teaser images, so i´d say its confirmed). Its such an underrated bird (or rather Buffalo)
And appropriately, it's going down in flames. Which is what it mostly did during the Battle of Midway.
@@PoochAndBoo oh dear
@@PoochAndBoo Guys fresh from flight school Vs. best pilots anywhere.
@@williamkoppos7039 Green pilots flying an obsolete fighter, against combat veterans in the best naval fighter in the world at the time. No way that was going to go well!
Allways interested in anything to do with WWII combat, Bring it on!
That's mouth-watering.
Completion in the market is good for everyone. I hope they will do well.
I would definitely be interested.
Can't wait for it! 😛👍
They will be competing with DCS. Looking forward to it.
I can't wait ...thanks for the info.
If its hard core as in DCS cold starts (autostart optional) and flight models I'm interested.
I miss the Joint-Ops days. That was so much fun.

Sounds like a great replacement for IL-2 Pacific Fighters.
soooo buying this!
day one!
Exciting. First I have heard of this flight simulator. Thanks for putting it on my radar. I agree we need a really good WW2 pacific flight sim.
Bring it!
I loved MS CFS1 and CFS2. I've always been fascinated by the WWII Pacific theater, and this is definitely a first day buy for me! And who knows, maybe this will light a fire under Eagle Dynamics to get their WWII Pacific theater assets done for us. 😀
Thank God. DCS is so slacking on the Pacific Theater.
WW2 is a niche within a niche with DCS. They are the least to expect something from.
i would love this, especially if you can walk on the carrier, interact with the crew, have mission briefings, go get your gear and go to your plane, all coupled with a little bit of AI NPC-s
Combat pilot....nice
DCS and war thunder pretty much already have this covered. They are going to have to do a VERY VERY good job to dethrone war thunder for damage models, flight models and general combat for ww2 aircraft, and if they ever go into modern jets, DCS is basically the de-facto standard with war thunder just behind it.
The benefit here of another competitor is to force the 2 dominant players (DCS and war thunder) to adapt their games to keep players away from a potential competitor. GHPC didnt really draw players away from war thunder though, so.... maybe this will get the hardcore ww2 sim pilots interested, but i still think war thunder really has that covered, or the IL2 series.
I've been playing computer games online since 1972 and have always had a particular fondness for simulator type games. Driving, flying, tanks, or battlemechs, the more realistic and difficult, the better. I've just recently upgraded my PC to get up to speed for VR and also more recently bought a Quest 3. I've had a little luck getting War Thunder working through Steam, but haven't gotten into DCS yet.
This game looks incredibly interesting and I'll be following it's development. Hopefully it will have full VR support!
🤟🧙♂🤟
Count me in. I’ll jump at any chance to fly the Zero
Yeah, this didn't seem to be a direction (i.e the Pacific Theater) that Il-2 Great Battles IP was all that interested in pursuing when Jason Williams was at the helm, and may have been a contributing factor to him leaving the Il-2 team - in what appears, on the surface at least, to be less than amicable terms. In any event, Jason's passion for this Combat Pilot venture seems to be quite significant - and I expect good, if not great things to come of this - for the combat flight sim ecosystem.
Not sure about that, since IL-2 has expressed interest in it now. An issue was that they didn't have the required technology in the IL-2 game engine, but they are now working on a new engine.
Although the first IL-2 project with the new engine will be Korea, which seems like a great theater of war to simulate.
Finally some focus on the Pacific!
The weird part is that when Jason was with 777 he said they *wanted* to do a Pacific theatre but they could not get hold of enough precise data on the Japanese aircraft and they would not do it based on guesswork. I wonder how IL2 still does not have the data but Jason does.
I am very interested because, despite being really bad at landing on carriers, they fascinate me. There is something very exciting about a mass dawn launch from a carrier.
I have the same questions also because IL2 1946 had the Pacific theater. Everyone wants the pacific for IL2 BOX and they should.
@RobinHartJones Because that's only half the story. I've never told the full story really on why I had to abandon the PTO at my old job.
Hell Yea.
Those wallpapers are nuts.
*_Aces of the Pacific enters the chat._* - i’m intrigued, tell me more!
They anoced the project a few years ago but very few tuvbers picked up the anocment... Which this video is more upto date like I had no idea about the RTX, soft body physics and new gen sound... Which I can't wait and I love how they only promise they'll make a modern pacfic theater flight combat sim and not the moon... Also I love how it's compleltly new so it can have modern nicities unlike DCS which has a 20 year old engine. Overall I can't wait to see what they show at the event!
So is this where Magnitude ( Leatherneck ) took their F4U after 3 years of DCS Pacific WWII foot dragging, like Ilya and VEAO before them?
Im all in, i just hope for a more manageable economy, realistic sims have always been too expensive and small demographics scoped. Sturmovik series was so damn generous in content that everything after it seemed expensive and niche.
Oh please bring me back to the good old days of Combat Flight Simulator 2 and online multiplayer and international squadrons of 1% aircraft!
Looking forward to it though I think Jason W said last year that it's around five years for development, so a while off yet.
Combat Pilot......TAKE MY MONEY NOW!!!!!!
"flight sim set in the pacific theater"
That's more than a little interesting! It's HUGE. No one has done a serious attempt at a PTO flight sim in decades. As much as I like flying the Bf-109 I am tired of European WWII flight sims!!
❤❤❤
This is excellent news, we're overdue a new combat simulator, bring it on!
Yes, I'm up for that. Hey whatever happened to that bush pilot game?
Deadstick…It never came out of Alpha unfortunately. They spent so long trying to make it perfect, technology overtook them.
Return of Hellcats over the Pacific?
Hoping it has a decent emersive storyline without being cheesy.
Sims are common. I want it to come with a game too.
Hmm looks interesting, it'd be much better if they could add the European/Meditteranean/Eastern front theatres.
Man I’m looking forward to this it looks beautiful. Will this sim be in DCS platform . The pacific WWII theater is my favorite Simulation. ! Send me a notice when this is ready to hit the market.
Battle of midway, battle of the coral sea but nice 😮
Hype
Sbd dauntless would be so nice
Asobo should bring back the MS CFS series.
looks good but want a dvd version as broadband here sucks
If Jason is running the show you can just forget good sounds, engine sounds, flyby sounds.
