Its still nerfed like BF:V unfortunatly, I wonder how much the MOD'ers can mess with the physics? Todays patch does say that they changed the yaw rate on the helo's and increased forward speed... But the POE aircraft/helo's do handle a lot better than the BF:V era stuff. So its not BF:V but its not DC either.
Once I got used to the BF:V stuff, and now switch back and forth between the two games, I think it made me a better pilot in both games. The response time is just a lot slower in the BF:V engine so its tougher to get out of control but also tougher to do some of the tight spaced crazy helo moves that can be pulled off in DC.. (I can now roll the helo sideways 360 degrees in DC if I have enough altitude can help shake someone behind you...)
I had a big "POP" in my joystick the other night, same one that I have at your house, still works, but its like the spring that returned it to top-dead-center became loose ....
US get a much nicer looking apache and the now shit-canned commanche. There's little birds for both sides, and two russian helo's for the Red side...
They may or may not added this big 2 seater fighter bomber in the todays patch. Posts: 2469 | From: Anchorage, AK | Registered: Oct 2001

Looks very cool. I forgot how much I like flying the little birds (and how much I dislike the Helos in BFV) - I was very good at one time. Graphics look nice like the WW2 mod. Is there palm trees everywhere? They seem to like that graphic - was all over the WW2 mod.

POE's setting is a near future War for Oil in North Africa between the U.S. and Russia. There are some cool jungle maps, with better cover than BF:V, and some pretty cool huge desert maps. They also mod over some BF:V maps as well as the originals, and added a few more this patch.

Got the update and installed it. Pretty cool game. The Helos seem a lot like they are in BFV - better in the controls but they don't like to gain altitude. Same with the planes - they drop in alt a lot easier then the DC aircraft.
I jumped on the server you sent me Joe - good news I ping 60 (but no one else was on). Maybe later tonight.

Played last night for a couple hours. Very fun game. I do like the heads up display better then DC and the weapons are better then the vietnam stuff.
You guys should download and try it since you already own BFV.
Joe what is the new stuff in this version? It's all new to me.
