Combat wings: the great battles of the second WELTKRIEGS follows the antenna tracks his titular Church of franchise, particularly combat wings: Battle of Britain way back in 2006, and attempts to pack the arcade simulation in the familiar setting of Allied and Axis powers. As the war of the allies concentrated there with the most video-game interpretation of second WELTKRIEGS, the games on the efforts, one at the battle of Britain with Big Ben in the distance, which often uncredited part campaign in Africa, the unwavering defense of Russia and the dogfights of the Pacific against Japanese Kamikaze pilots threatening, is.

Some people might this murmurs the thoughts of a further WELTKRIEGS title, you will be in the flight genre or not, but air technology in this day and age does exactly for exciting action. A stealth bomber on desert spot # 3892, and that there is not much excitement in the remote control is not even mention on auto-pilot or navigated by satellite. The game is not a strict Flight Simulator where the player a manual full of buttons, frills and procedures just need, to learn the way, although there are incredible attention to detail and realism to the real missions and authentic aircraft.

Not only the animations and the physics of the WWII aircraft are well presented, but the game offers a cinematic approach to the field of view and the display. Aircraft not health bars nearby their wing tips, so that players have to realize their aircraft are as badly damaged as many to say more direct hits, they can resist. Currently no card or Mini card, which means that players can not red triangles to choose, abusing blip on the screen a radar from the stands.

Instead, move they actually have an enemy aircraft tail, select it with the target cursor, the Illuminated Reticle, and then use a healthy dose of ACE combat mode to slow down the time and even turn off automatically prior to the start. Of course, is ACE mode on little more than an outbreak of five seconds is limited, so it must be managed with effective timing. In the meantime must players bob and weaving, avoiding enemy bullets - i.e. not have Monstertrottinettes straight to a destination in a predictable - and the ground at all costs. Piloting 101, really is.

Fortunately during the demo, the developer on board enabled the journalist-friendly respawn system, so I see spiral me to my death several times could get through the available missions. Of the usual "all enemy planes destroy" objective means soft landing or turrets, sometimes for a refuelling, to destroy u boats and the ground troops with bombs and missiles. This continued over four campaigns and a significant improvement over the lack of mission is over 30 missions, diversity in the fight for Britain.

Interactive count city type in the final build multiplayer, but it is still uncertain. What is certain however, that the PS3 version even supporting move, which pushes the technology in a surprising way.Combat wings: the great battles of the second WELTKRIEGS sees a huge retail entry on Xbox 360, to be PS3 and PC, if it is in the camp in November dives.
