Details about LSII thinking of buying it...

First off, is this game REALLY worth buying? What would give it our of 1-10?

How many missions are? What aircraft are there? Does the F/A-18E look like one (Don't think LS can do that good of a job on a E)? For the 2 players, is it like Acecombat04 and AECA, or is it a lot better? Any other details would be great and helpful, just trying to see if it is any better than the first.

What I think is dumb is how a A-10 can take off from a carrier, and how MIG-29s and stuff come off of American style ones. At least they could of put a MIG-29 Fulcrum K, and a Su-33 because those are the types of MIG-29s and Flnakers that land on the carrier.

Hope its worth it!

re: Details about LSII thinking of buying it...

First off, this game is not bad,not as good as
Ace Combat 04 or Aero Elite,but its not bad.
Lethal Skies II is quite a bit better than the
first game of this series and does offer some
pretty good replay value.

As for the two player part,I can't comment on that
because I haven't been able to try it out,but the
game does have also for I-LINK hook up where you
can play online I belive.

As for missions,there is a total of twenty missions,
of which some of the these you have to unlock.The
missions IMOP are so/so,they're not bad,but also not
all that great either,I guess I prefer ones like in
AC-04 and in AECA much better than in this game,but as
I stated,they're not bad.The free flight is okay,but
there's not a whole lot to view or see,though it maybe
the earth has been ravaged by global warming and such,
I just wish there could've been some more details to
see.One thing I don't like about this game,it does feel
like you're in a box flying,there is no scense of distance
like in AC-04 and AECA.I just wish you had a bit more
distance to fly around in.

There are a total of 19 aircraft,three of which are
V/STOL,these are the aircraft in the game.

1)F-14D
2)F-16.
3)A-10.
4)F/A-18E.
5)F-5Z.
6)F/A-22.
7)F-35 JSF(V/STOL).
8)F-15E.
9)F-25.
10)AV-8B.
11)X-29.
12)YF-23.
13)SU-27.
14)SU-35
15)MIG-29.
16)S-37/SU-47 Berkut.
17)S-47(V/STOL).
18)EF-2000.
19)JAS-39 Grippen.

Yes,the F/A-18E does look like the Super Hornet.

As for BGM and sound,could've been done a lot better,
the BGM is IMOP so/so and not all that great,but its
okay.Sound is okay as well and could've been better
as well.

Overall,this game is not one to pass up,its not my all
time favoriite,but at least its better than the first
game.Another thing to mention is that you do get up
to about four wingmen to choose,I personally do and
don't like how they perform at times,but you have
them.Again,this is not a bad game though and I would
suggest you rent it first before buying it to see if
its something worth investing your money in.

re: Details about LSII thinking of buying it...

Can you hover in the game?
And how big is the terrain?

Thanks for all the info, very helpful.

re: Details about LSII thinking of buying it...

Yes,you can hover and land vertical with all three
V/STOL aircraft.However,both the S-47 and F-35 can
be tricky when landing them in the vertical position.
The AV-8B is pretty easy to handle and is not as tricky
to land as are the other two aircraft are.

As for how big the terrain is,I'am not quite sure what you
mean? but from my point of view on this,it feels like you're
more in a small box,more like a boxing rink than flying a
combat mission.It seems that before you know it,you're
flying right out of the combat area.So it doesn't feel like
there is a sence of distance to fly in as in AC-04 and AECA.

re: Details about LSII thinking of buying it...

That is what I meant. So the terrain size is about the same as the first.

What it fake is that the F-35 is way easier to land then the AV-8B. The Harrier takes lots of practice. As with the F-35, it was made a lot easier to land in VTOL.

I'm really waiting for Airforce Delta Strike, and Ace Combat5. I am also waiting for LOMAC. I have the demo and it is quite fun. What I hope AC5 will have is that you can break the sound barrier like in LOMAC. Its cool hearing it.

re: Details about LSII thinking of buying it...

Yeap,the terrain is the same size like in the first
Lethal Skies game,very,very disapointing.

I'am too looking forward myself to Air Force Delta Strike,
and especially,Ace Combat5

Though I like LSII,I'am disapointed that in many ways
its just like the first game,but it is better than LS1.
But as a fun goof around game,its worth having in your
game collection.

re: Details about LSII thinking of buying it...

Are the missions as long as Ace Combat 4. Or are the mission about killing one thing and its over?
