I really hope they develop the missions to look like what was advertised… It really was mis sold imo… I really want to like it but the game play is frankly embarrassing…
The assets used are always the same, and very low in count at scenes, the winchman is so dumb its unreal. There’s no call outs by the winch operator, so if you want to play the ‘sim’ realistically and just be in the cockpit, you can’t because you’ve no reference as to where your winchman is in space and even is you land the winchman on the life raft, half the time he just lays down and doesn’t do anything. The characters are so wooden, they don’t interact with you, look at you or anything like they should, or like in the trailer. Its always just one casualty, next to a tent or in a life boat or next to the same orange 4x4. The downdraft of the helicopter doesn’t affect the flare so the flare just smokes out your cockpit. The survivor is always stood up in the raft clipping through the roof of it. The replayability is extremely low, its already wearing thin… Bigger scenes and being able to coordinate rescues/fire fighting missions with your friends would be an awesome addition for multiple casualties.
On a side note, fire fighting missions, I had four then none ever appear any
more. Now they fixed the cargo heli mission cargo drop accuracy, I got awarded 100% to unlock the ‘heavy heli cargo missions’ but that mission has disappeared from the map… Sometimes there’s loads of SAR missions in the alps, usually there’s 0? They keep disappearing?
Mirrors don’t seem to work on heli cargo so it’s impossible to see what you’re doing from the cockpit. Ground crew don’t give directions either or your co pilot.
