Also side note they just updated the game with a few things he mentioned, they added a new plane dedicated to electronic warfare. Also added more weapons and better textures sound effects and plane models
How active/dedicated is the development and how much focus is being put on the Escalation mode? I'm interested in getting this game because I've always deeply loved semi-sim type aircraft games, but don't really care for them outside of sandbox-ish settings, and Escalation seems like the perfect blend of everything I've wanted out of a game like this. However, I've also been burned by some 'perfect blends' before when they get abandoned or butchered and simply don't have the time to invest in another one.
@@markoliver8914very active, they are trying to put out a major update every 3 months. last 2 ones both had an aircraft and lots of other goodies, like economy, destructible and additional cities, a bunch of new weapons, carriers, reworked flare system to almost completely remove RNG, etc
Leap Year Video. Make sure to like the video and try the game. Uhh... that's about it! I'm trying out Membership so its easier to make more videos regularly or at least buy more stuff for the channel
Looks awesome. Will check it out. Reminds me of the feel Mechwarrior: Living Legends gave, something in the green text, translucent hud, and landscapes. Appreciate your reviews. Keep it up Aussie.
I absolutely love nuclear option, I got it immediately after seeing rimmy downunders video on it and proceeded to play it non-stop for about a week straight with my friends while it can be described as a flight sim the controls are rather easy to pick up, and you don't need to be some retired air force pilot with over 100 confirmed kills on your record to find success even a casual gamer who doesn't like to take things serious will have more than a return on their investment in sheer fun factor and with constant updates I cannot recommend it enough
Oh! In case you haven't tried this yet, since you're on a gamepad, try disabling the Virtual Joystick option. That should allow your Right Stick to give you freelook and map control I have no idea why the Virtual Joystick disables this
Thing is, I'd strongly argue that this game has more realistic flight physics than war thunder. But you have to put far more time into it due to the grind.
Salokin, any recommendations for similar games that are complete? This looks good but I'm not a fan of early access personally. (I did just buy Hostile Waters thanks to your previous video.)
Short of very old sims from the 90s that are pretty tough to get the grips of (quality of life stuff mostly) I think this is totally unique. Arma 3 might be the closest thing I can think of but it’s not a flight sim.
Hi I enjoyed the game but I connected my hotas x56 controllers, my throttle works perfectly but my joystick does not work, I cannot get pitch when I'm taxing on runway I can turn left or right, any ideas regards
It's pretty much stable with all the contents. They are just adding more and more contents later on. No need to keep people waiting for the game to be finished when they can buy and enjoy the game.

@@markoliver8914It’s active. Get it it’s so good not hard to learn but hard to master.

there is also the EW-25 Medusa now, being able to temporarily supress radar, or using Anti Radiation missiles to permanently supress them .
I was gonna say isn't there another one?
@@maestro-zq8gu yes, an electronic warfare aircraft with STOVL (Short Take Off Vertical Landing)

"Which already feels like a nuclear helllscape in Summer. " 💯😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great review, really enjoyed it
Thanks!
Undercooked, no.
Early access, yes.
I think the team is 1-2 people making all of the content, they are doing a great job so far.
Great music choice!
True!
I was enjoying your vid, when you mentioned by dawns early light, i knew you were a gentleman and a scholar of 90s hbo gold!
Oh! In case you haven't tried this yet, since you're on a gamepad, try disabling the Virtual Joystick option. That should allow your Right Stick to give you freelook and map control

I bougt this game recently, connected my old joystick and i spent whole weekend at home playing it... defenetley can recommend❤
Great review, must give this a go
This game looks fantastic!

absolute heresy to name dcs with WT
Forgive me

Sure, Comanche 4 is still decent as is Ace Combat, armored core and project wingman. Also consider GunMetal, made by the same guys as hostile Waters.
This game is still good even if you don’t like early access games. It feels complete, and has plenty of fun

I cannot recommend the game enough it is a blast to play
Ikr

Nukulah.
@@CNTconnoisseur nukukah option
Hi is there vr mode
I don't think so yet
why are so many people unable say the word nuclear?! It's not nukuler.
Hearing the word mispronounced >20 times in this video made my teeth grind
@@MrChaosMath nukulah
I hope i could run this game in my potato pc
same
The game is pretty optimized and stable. You will be running fine even with GTX 1060 3GB.
@@Arkhmar heard its cpu heavy , thats a problem for me
I have an AMD Ryzen 5 2600. It doesn't drop below 60 FPS. @@OverlordZephyros
why they sell unfinished game?
It's pretty much stable with all the contents. They are just adding more and more contents later on.
No need to keep people waiting for the game to be finished when they can buy and enjoy the game.
