New Combat Flight Simulator is cooking!! - Combat Air Patrol 2 || My Review  

The day micropose does a sequel to falcon 4 is the day ill really get excited... falcon bms did a good job modifying f4 but we just need a newer engine and graphics thats not 30 years old

Yea, same here. Saw in 2016 or so as a WIP project that never seemed to get worked on much. I'm glad to see it coming out finally.

New? It’s an 8 year old abandoned E/A game. We’ve been waiting for that dynamic campaign since 2016.

Tell me you don't really watch the sim space without telling me you don't watch the sim space... As others have pointed out. It's been in EA on steam for almost a decade.

No matter how great the interior might be, the flight model, etc., if the game doesn't have volumetric clouds it will not compete with the likes of DCS (in particular) that one change to the dcs game was monumental for simulator fans.

I was doinh the trainig missions, but the rockets dont seem to work. Not sure how to use guided bombs either. It need more tutorials.

We getting Dynamic Campaign in this game before DCS :(

Think I’ll stick with DCS.

I expect to see also F14, F18 and Corsair at least.

Flight Simulator 2 on the Atari ST wasnt that bad

This is not a sim.its a kids game

Meh...

I dont hear the name microprose since the 80s ... and I was a big big fan with f19 stealth fighter and red storm raising 😊. We were still in floppy disk era!

my dad flew the AV-8B Plus in Iraq and Afghanistan for the Marines in the early 2000's and he would probably love this game

My two most favourite games were Microprose’ M1A1 Tank Platoon and Gunship absolutely awesome games back in the day

You landed that so well. It just did as it was told. I bought this and saw some bad feedback left on the steam saying that production had stopped. But I saw regular report updates on the thread of upcoming things and that things were still being worked on. Reinstalling I was really hopeful for this. So glad I paid for it when I did. And I am gonna enjoy this.

Looks good. Can't touch early access anymore. Even trusted companies and early on promises. If the game 💩 the bed might not even be left with the bag. And to top that off when you go to said game forums and complain. Mf say you new what you bought had the possibility to fail. Not a gambling man. Sorry

Vic-20/Amiga flight sim days were awesome.

Hello Mike, I discovered your channel today and I´m very delighted having found such an informative and entertaining YT channel! Especially your VR headset descriptions are awesome and I really enjoy watching you flying air vehicles in VR! Nice and friendly moderation of your videos, too! Great job! I also like this video here (yes, I´m old enough to know the first version of Combat Air Patrol - but initially I thought, this game´s name was "Interceptor", but "Interceptor" on my Amiga 500 was even elder LOL) Please keep up your work in this cool channel, subscribed and liked!

Added to my list but Im going to wait for the game to mature a bit.

Yes, worth keeping it on my radar but no early access for me.

Need to dust off that old Sound Blaster card.

I owned the Amiga 500 way ahead of its time, the flight sim "interceptor" was incredible, was amazing when I upgraded the memory by half a MB, it was this big metal piece of pie looking insert that fit in the bottom the computer..lol

Yes, that's how we played

Having played CAP on the amiga way back when, so looking forward to playing this one. The AV8B is one of my all time favourite aircraft and always enjoyed Microprose games! D/L now on steam!

Nice!!! will there be other aircraft coming to this sim as well as other missions? Hopefully

This has been out for years, just has been taken over by MPro.

microprose have always been champions of flight simulators. It’s strange that they forgot that they are very good at this.

MicroProse...never forget what they did when Falcon4 came out🖕🖕🖕

Another game with a "roadmap". Long gone are the days that Microprose delivered a fully developed product

Oh my god, I had this here in UK back in 93.... this looks nice!!! Moved onto MSFS and DCS! Looks good 👍

"Blue one this is the U.S.S. Theodore Roosevelt. You are clear to land." :) Loved CAP and GS2000 on my Amiga, still playing sometimes... Night missions, dashboard litening, laser designator and so on. Yumm yumm. CAP was a quantum leap back then but not this time. It looks quite okayish but compared to dcs it feels a bit arcade for me. Anyway, it is good to see any competitors to dcs, competitive environment has its benefits to all users. Oh yes and movable mouse in vr mode is not possible because your mouse has 2 axes while in vr you have 3. And you can't ignore the additional z axis due the perspective, headposition etc. So raycast driven central pointer yes but moving 2d mouse in real 3d space... not. The same method exists in dcs and it works for me well, just look at the switch and click. I took apart a cheap usb mouse, soldered wires to its buttons and placed 2 arcade button on the stick of my warthog hotas (with zipties, in a non destructive way ofcourse) . One for left and one for right click (right click is for rotary encoders for example). In this way I can click the buttons without releasing the stick itself. It works like charm. :)

No more early-access thank you

It cooking since 2016😅

Know it it’s a old game when the render looks like Lego blocks

A 9 Year Old game is New???? You only will jump on the Harrier train and catching clicks. Shame over you By the way, in your early acces you can fly the v22 too. I know what i sah, in my steam Bibliothek is this game for 9 years

I want the next Gunship !

Gosh, how long have I been waiting for an accessible flight simulation with a dynamic SP campaign! DCS is nice but feels more like a technical feasibility study. I miss somewhat like "Enemy engaged", "Gunship 2000", "TFX", "Mig Alley", "Red Baron" or "Tornado".

Does multiplayer enable ???...does others aircraft have a detailled inside cockpit too 🤔🤔

Don't even think of wasting your money on this guys. I got it and never reinstalled it after getting the Harrier in DCS. It's more a alpha version of a game - So much missing, you couldn't believe. Not easy enough for casual players and not in the slightest complex enough for the simmers. The graphics suck b*lls today, and even when it first came out almost a decade ago it was beaten by the old DCS and even Flaming Cliffs. Better get free DCS World and fly the AV-8B harrier there free for 2 weeks if you want a "Simulation", then repeat with "Trial Modules and Maps" every 2 weeks. If you catch the bug, start to invest in that hobby! This Game here would be more suitable for a handheld on the way to school or work. But you get pretty quickly bored, because it hasn't much to offer!

Grazie Ligabue per averci aggiornato su CAP 2.

Graphics look abit dated to me

Thx for the vid, I will give him a try.

Will it support triple screen?

slp...... , i guess it's better than EP. If you don't know what i'm talking about. Then you missed out on a era.

does it work with thrust master t1600m

MICRO PROSE! MI RICORDO UN VIDEOGIOCO CHE HO AMATO TANTO PER PSX GUNSCHIP 2000!🙂FANTASTICO L HARRIER SPETTACOLO!👍👍👍😉

Finalmente. Esperei muito por isso

It could do with a better tutorial system like the dcs of manuals like the falcon 4 BMW training manual. As I brought this a few years ago and gave up due to lack of training materials

Alguém assistindo??😻😻😻

Dcs + tom clancys hawx = that shit. 😂

microprose needs to remake all the old shiz

I loved Combat Air Patrol on the Amiga. It is my all time favorite Air Combat Flight Sim. I played it on an Amiga 500 with a Super Turbo 28 accelerator and it ran so good it was amazing. I always wanted them to bring it back remastered with modern graphics. It would be nice if they allowed you to fly the FA-18 and F-14 Tomcat as well.

water needs a lot of work..never even played it yet either..just seeing what you are showing.and motion sickness is pretty cool,by the way!..lol
