new ROF patch out early

Zappatime · #1 08-31-2011, 10:49 PM

Well everything's relative, I recently contemplated getting into RC planes/ helicopters, but started to think I could spend easily more than my total spend on ROF and wreck it in an instant, it seems only a matter of time that you get a wreck whether from your own skill running out or a failure of a component, it happens to the best. After that realisation I felt ROF and CLOD were reatively meagre outlays for the time I spend with them.

iRacing is another successful model and not cheap either, my son's into it and circuits and car models soon add up, plus its a subscription, but I guess sim racing has a far bigger following than combat flight simming, so its more likely to be viable the way they market it.

ROF has no forum?

if ROF was an 1C game i understand that you speak here... but.. well if you want to speak about this crappy game it is ok... but for me it is not the place...

There are several of us here who also fly ROF (in my case I flew ROF as my first sim, now CloD is my second). At times CloD is discussed in the ROF forums, too.

Here's a photo of Luthier and the leader of ROF, Jason Williams, from Jason's trip to Moscow in March of this year. The caption below it is what Jason wrote when he shared that photo in the ROF forums, and I would guess many who posted to this thread agree with his sentiments:

"On a side note, an unexpected opportunity arose when I learned that my long-time friend Ilya Shevchenko from IL-2 was still in Moscow for another night and we could meet up for dinner. I had just arrived and he was on his way back to the States. We live fairly close to each other in California and to get together in Moscow was a surreal experience. It’s weird how life works that way sometimes. We met up and had an interesting conversation about our respective development activities and the evolution of each team. We talked about the weird rivalry between our two products on the forums, the genesis of it and the future of both teams. We respect each other and we believe in friendly competition. We both wish the community would see it the same way and be supportive of both products."

A flight sim, try it. it is free to play, if you don't like it, you can just delete it. Cost you nothing. Only costs if you buy extra planes.
But this is the Clod forum and we should keep our chats about Clod and not the fantasitc, beautifully made RoF, with photo realistic terrain, stunning flight models and massive online wars

The ability turn every negative comment into a positive

Rise of Flight. A sort of WW1 sister sim to Cliffs of Dover. Made by 777 Studios.

You can download the core game for free these days too. Addon cockpits are sold separately, though they are only about 7-8 bucks each.

Aw bobb4, you beat me to it!

Well, I always had a silent hope that the Rise and the Cliffs communities would eventually merge into one big community. I know it will probably never happen but it's nice to see that the devs of both sims are friends and that Jason himself asked us on RoF forums to support both products.
