Falcon 4: Allied Force server goes live.

**Apophis** · 08-05-2005, 02:33 PM

“I feel the need. The need for speed.”

Tactical Gamer is proud to announce another addition to the ever increasing list of gaming servers. Falcon 4: Allied Force is currently the definitive combat flight simulator on the market and as such, we feel that it fits in here with the ethics of tactical game play and teamwork.

From the server’s point of view, war will officially begin on Saturday 6th August at 09:00 hours (EST) in the Balkans theatre. The server will be left running on its own accord, leaving flight times down to individual members. If you see a flight you wish to join but it doesn’t begin for another hour, no problem; just advance the clock to bring you to your required time. Make sure you grab a wingman!

The details for joining the server can be found in Member Features > Server Passwords off the main menu on the front page. The server is open only to Supporting Members at present. If you wish to become a supporting member, please click here. Registered members can still participate in flights and training missions hosted by individual members. Also make sure you visit the Falcon 4 forums to book training flights, discuss tactics, arrange sorties and ask questions.

Lastly, if you'd like to give Falcon a go but have never been into flight sims - try it! We have training programs to suit all levels and good pilots are taught, not born.

See you in the air.

Hey Cuda,

We've been running some training missions lately which have been great fun. Check out the forums for more info and join us tomorrow if you're free - 16:30 EST (or 21:30 GMT)

Well I'll be damned I never thought we'd get an AF server! Hot diggity :}

**Rincewind** · 08-07-2005, 05:51 PM

Where can I get this game?

Turbo · 08-07-2005, 06:32 PM

I picked my copy up at gamestop.

YES! I have a reason to get back into flight sims! It's been a while but damn I'd be glad to get back in. Unfortunately most flight sims are very limited with online play, but this seems pretty cool. Also gives me a reason to dust off my force feedback joystick =)

Speaking of that, does Falcon 4 support force feedback?

Ooh, it's made by Graphsim too! I was always a huge fan of their F/A-18 Hornet series back in the day, but I haven't seen or heard anything of them for years. Good to know they're still around =D

Where do I find the F4AF server address etc....

I see the private one listed on the servers tab but that one needs a password. I have just now regiested for "Tactical Gammer" and so far so good!

Just need to find a server to fly F4AF Online!

Any Help!

Thanks,

Flint

Hiya Flint, hope to fly with you soon. As Apophis said in the first post of this thread, the details for joining the server can be found in Member Features > Server Passwords off the main menu on the front page. You'll find TeamSpeak information there, too. You'll need that as well.

Any questions about getting on the server or flying online in general, ask 'em in the Falcon 4 AF forums. We'll be glad to help you get set up. We like new pilots!

We've been having a blast flying on the server and with Jex on training missions. It really is addicting. See ya in the sky!

I searched around to see if there was a demo. Found one on FilePlanet. Falcon 4.0.

However, when trying to install the game it says it can only run in Win95. No prob. I changed it to Win95 compatibility. It installed. But when I try to run the game it errors out.

Is this not the correct demo?

I can't imagine it would be a game that was written for Win95...

No, that's not the demo you want. That's the demo for the original. This is the update/expanded version.

So, can you get the updated version in a demo? I would really like to try it first.

TG_PolishBoogieman · 08-16-2005, 10:14 AM

There's no demo for Falcon 4 Allied Force... I don't know if they plan to release one in the future or not.

The good news is that the game is cheap (best price I've seen is $24.95) and the game is GOOD. Another important thing is that the support from Lead Pursuit is top-notch. They hang out in our forums and other F4AF-related forums to answer questions. How cool is that?

If you like modern air combat sims, this is one of the best, perhaps THE best.
