User Comments about the Falcon 4.0: Allied Force

The manual is over 700 pages and is only in.pdf format (big drawback) but you can print out just the pages that you need to learn what you need to learn.I purchased the Saitek X52 HOTAS system and am still in the progress of programming all the controls. I have been playing with Falcon since 3.0 and very much enjoy the series. In this game you will for sure need to learn a lot of keyboard commands, or get a HOTAS (Hands On Throttle And Stick) system. I told them that I was using this flight sim game instead and they think it's great for the same purpose.If you just want a game that you jump in and start shooting things, there are other games out there. I had a recent head injury and the shrinks want me to play Brain Games type of stuff to help rewire things. If you really want to get serious with the Falcon series, you will need to learn to fly the plane, use the avionics, and learn the weapon delivery systems. There are those out there that have profiles built for the Saitek, but they are usually in the.dat format when you need one in the.pr0 format.My recommendation on this game is that if you have lots of time to dedicate to learning the game then this is the one you want.

I can't wait for it. Title says it all. I hear that Lead Pursuit's next flight sim will be even better. If you want to learn all you can about flying the F-16 without having the opportunity to sit in one, then this is the flight sim for you.

How many commands do you want to learn just to do some basic stuff. I guess if you have nothing but time on your hands, maybe you can figure out how to fly this thing. This was a complete waste of money for me. For those of us who have enjoyed moderately complex flight sims, this is a real disappointment, as the learning curve is precipitous. If you'd answer "less than a dozen," then don't get this.

Graphica are becoming dates now, but they have terrain updates out there.Hi-tiles is good.BUY IT if you want THE F-16 Flight sim.it's a BEAR to fly and do all of the stuff you need to do, but it's realistic and no one said flying the real one is easy without training. Well, after purchasing Falcon 4.0 WAY back years ago for my Mac, I HAD to get this. It's stable, and runs great. THe manual is 600 Pages.so start reading now.;)

It's already 2008 and I just bought Falcon 4 Allied Force. Looking at the competition, this game still is one of the best combat sim in the market (in terms of features and simulation quality). Best of all, it does not have any technical issues with more modern hardware and OS (I'm running on Vista and NVidia 8400) despite its age.
