Do you always have to be stuck in 3rd person mode when you turn assistance off. I have my camera mode set to cockpit but when I start the first mission and it makes you turn assistance off I'm stuck in some odd 3rd person view where it is impossible to fly.

I swear I read somewhere in the 360 version you could fly assistance off if you changed something in the options but I can't actualy find it.

 

[Thermopylae_480]

Flying assistance off isn't the issue on PC, just press left control. Once you do however, you're no longer in cockpit mode, but rather 3rd person which is a horrible way to fly.

So my conclusion is this game sucks. You can either play with unrealistic safety nets or stumble around in 3rd person view... pretty lame.

 

[DrPepper]

I said that completely wrong lol. I meant there was an option I read about that let you fly in 1st person while in assistance off mode. I can't find one though.

I works well with my Sidewinder Force FeedBack 2, only thing missing is the force feedback, but all the axis's work.

That's what I've been saying the whole time. Ubisoft is claiming that this is their intended style of game play

All they have to do is allow full control of the planes with the assistance on camera and the game would be epic beyond all recognition.

installed, played for 5 minutes, uninstalled.

not interested. :/

Yeah... I was excited, and was going to buy it, but not anymore. Sorry Ubisoft, you fail.

I hope they will listen but I doubt it.

I will post in this thread you posted Triptex.

Perhaps there will be someone who will hack it, mod it or w/e so we can have it with assistance off/camera control.

The bonus codes that I submitted only works on the full game... not the demo.

Please come vote on this poll about the camera modes... it could help

the game looks awesome but im thinking i will need a joystick to play this properly.

 

[TheMailMan78]

Ok now that its been out a while I need to know if this has my "Afterburner fix" or am I stuck in limbo still?

I recommend a joystick. But then disabling the assistance thing, I felt like I would have needed a joypad all of a sudden. I only have a Thrustmaster Top Gun "Afterburner 2" (bought it 2:nd hand for like 10$)..

 

[TheMailMan78]

TechnicalFreak said "Thrustmaster"

 

[DrPepper]

"Thrustmaster"

You called

 

[Pete1burn]

So, if I'm reading this right, you cannot play the game with assistance off in cockpit view?

You read that correct.

 

[Pete1burn]

That is...bullsh*t.

Who the hell wants to play a flight sim and not be in the cockpit...

It was never advertised as a flight sim. It's an arcade flight shooter or whatever.

 

[Pete1burn]

But still! How hard is it just to adjust the camera view? Or make the cockpit view from the training or assistance or whatever selectable whenever you want?

This game is easily modded, people have already unlocked several planes, co-op mode (via hamachi), and free flight mode.

One used is claiming to be ale to unlock a/off maneuverability while leaving a/on.
