WILL THE F-35 HOVER?!

[oBlaziin]

Okay so I guess I have to make a topic for someone to actually take the question seriously.

Also, will we get the F-35A model or just the crappy B with the hover. I'm not sure UBI knows that the main F-35 is actually an A and can't hover....ugh.

[Adnihilis]

Short answer: no.

Blazin,
This is my theory. I might be wrong, but then again I might be right. If I am right I don't want to ruin the surprise, so sorry if I do.

If you look at the plane descriptions for it on the home page, they specifically talk about it being the first stealth fighter with vtol capability. Why would they even mention that if it wouldn't be included? I think you will be able to unlock it as part of the plane mastery thing. That is just my opinion.

Also, if you look at the developer q & a, Sorlim asked phantom what he thought it meant in terms of missions, if you would be using the GR9 variant of the Harrier. It might have something to do with the British part of the campaign, but I don't know. I might be misinterpreting what he is hinting at, but I think you will be able to use it for both. Maybe someone who knows more about the GR9 could shed some light on what it is capable of...

Ps. I wanted the F-35A too.

It would be nice to get the B-variant that is functional, but lets not hold our breaths if we find out its not true.

[stevieliu]

I guess no
If yes, they will definately advertise this feature again and again, just like what they did for precision bombing take-off and landing etc.

Why does everyone want hover?? why is it usefull, i dont get it. And if people could hover in this game everyone would just hide somewhere and when sum1passes, fire a missile and then wait for another player to flyby....annoying much??

e would just hide somewhere and when sum1passes, fire a missile and then wait for another player to flyby....annoying much??

we want (well, I want) the F-35B and Harrier to hover..because that is what they are known for. Yeah it doesn't matter much. But its like playing Forza 3, Getting into a Corvette ZR-1to find out the put the motor of a chevy aveo in it...doesn't make sense to do that right? For all the people who just want to "beast" and only care about kills and crap yea it may not matter to you..thats fine.

[William_95]

I can agree that hover in SINGEPLAYER would be rather cool, but not in multiplayer.
Imagen your takeing off from a carrier in your F/A-18Superhornet, you fly at mach 2 to protect your last homebase, bullets are flying everywhere,you can see/hear explosions everywhere, Your in your finest fast jet-dogfighting mode, and then
allofasudden some hovering F-35b at 50feet shots a missile at you. and you didnt evev have the chance to see it,like I said >>annoying much?<<
Its like noobtubeing from mw2.
And of course i care about my K/D ratio.
And btw how do i quote someones text like you did? thankx

[IkusaGTx]

Not to sound obnoxious but who cares about K/D in flight games. It shouldn't be that much of a big deal,because in all the flight games I have played your overall K/D isn't tracked.

[William_95]

I've never playd a multiplayer combat flight game befor. So i dont know if they have k/ds.
But who dosen't what to be "The best of the Best-the Elit". Every single competition games im playing im aiming for the top score overall.
Thats who I am. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Once again, Ubi news article:

" From the F-35’s vectored thrust capability to the ultra-secret Enhanced Reality System, you’ll light up the skies with a suite of experimental technology available only to a chosen few."
