I see there's a F/A-18 is that the new super hornet or not

Hello, am new here .. really look forward to this game. I'm a Silent Hunter 4 gamer (well my signature really tells it ) but also love air combat action.

Just some questions about HAWX (sorry if some of the questions have been covered somewhere) :

- Will there be a recording facility that can be switched on and off at anytime to record the missions or any dogfights so we can replay it like a movie later on ? If yes then how does the engine work on this camera ? i.e. can we view it from all different angles including to follow the missiles ?

- Is there a feature that shows the first or third person walking/running to the aircraft and hop on it and switching on the engine etc? love to hear the engine starts and when it's switched off

- Do we have option to take off and land the aircraft? or are we are just being put in the air whenever the game starts?

- What will be the environment aspects like around the air base and the cities? i.e. do we see activities such as people transport the missiles and load it onto the aircraft? can we hear the aircraft surrounding noises? people and vehicle movement? the aircraft being repaired etc?

- can we see the 3D engine of all aircraft?

- Just wondering about the preferred system requirement for this .. any suggestion ?

Thanks in advance for the answers

"However, since the main focus in H.A.W.X is being put on intense action, most of the fights will be decided through dogfighting"

another excuse for cloning AC.
ubi can design a mission:
a player has to fly a fighter with excellent BVR ability(such as F-14),and the player and his/her wingmen have to intercept or scramble enemy bombers(with escort fighters) far away,or intercepting or scrambling lots of cruise missiles.

why "BVR is the intense killer"????

GKane: Can you try to find out whether the PC version of the game will require online authentication upon installation? Will we be able to play single player without having to connect to the internet?

Will HAWX be drm-free?

You say no public beta will be made, but will there be a demo of the game on Xbox Live Marketplace? I think in an interview, there was something about this. If so, then when?

IAM SO ANXIOUS TO THIS GAME COMES OUT OMG.. CMON WE NEED INFO

Can a developer answere me this 1 question... (the answere will be based weather I buy the game, along with 10 of my other friends.)

Is there Take off and Landing in the game???

Will there be cross-platform multiplayer?

Considering a flight stick isn't native to either PC or a console, balance issues would be moot (ok, arguably, analog sticks are still better than keyboards) and it would provide a great way to settle all those console-vs-pc flame wars

i have a quick question. is there going to be a joystick control set-up designed for HAWX like there was for Ace Combat? Or if not, will that set-up work on HAWX?

Ok that was the answer that I wanted, so the jets will be realistic with turniing,stalling ect.

Can the planes do 180 degree turns at top speed?

All the planes are able to do 180 degree turns at top speed. Depending on the plane, the time and the distance required for this type of turn will vary, from fast+small distance to slow+large distance. So with some planes you will actually be able to do the “180 degree turn” maneuver, whilst with others you will only be able to do a slow 180 degree turn. Doing this type of turn will make your plane lose a lot of speed so there is the risk of stalling the plane.

How hard can it be to fix this? You all already got a poor writeup for this in one article, and the game isnt even out yet. UBI...this is just sad.

i just wanna say, to all the people who are complaining about this, almost every plane can do aa 180 degree turn, at any speed, its not hard people, if the plane could'nt do it, it would'nt be a good fighter

what??!? no info on take off and landing?!?! cmon!! even ace combat has it!!

also gkane will you tell me this. will the devs. do something about the stalling in the game? because planes do not just fall and recover like that so will you please answer this? (or tell me if its on hold?)

Will there be a split screen mode?
