H.A.W.X. 2 Flies Clear of PCs, For Now

[Jared]

Awwww. Well, not a huge fan of the series anyway - Give me mroe Ace Combat!

Dear Ubisoft: drop every other Tom Clancy title you have and make EndWar 2. Now.

 

[Aeshi]

Goddamnit I was looking forward to HAWX 2

 

[Buccura]

And not a single fuck was given.

 

[Sebenko]

Oh no! An average game with awful DRM isn't being released on PC?

I shall cry bitter tears of not-giving-a-fuck.

Along with Assassin's Creed 3 on PC being delayed, is anyone noticing a pattern?

What, that Ubisoft has realised PC gamers just won't deal with their shitty DRM?

 

[Abedeus]

Gutted for PC gamers. I couldn't see HAWX on the PC being any good anyway. It just seems like more of a console genre. Then again, I've never played any flight sims on PC.

Joysticks were on consoles or PCs?

Yeah.

Also, the demo was boring and unintuitive and the DRM sucks.

 

[DTWolfwood]

um so who here was looking forward to this game PC or Console?? and how dare they call this arcade game a sim?!

 

[Kiefer13]

Probably because the competition on the consoles isn't as good, whereas on the PC, there are plenty of good combat fight simulators that blow H.A.W.X - [sic], out of the water.

 

[Delusibeta]

My money is on UbiDRM causing the delay. They need to either re-arm or abandon it (preferably the latter) after it got blown wide open shortly before Splinter Cell Conviction's release. (Here's hoping they abandon it for TrackMania 2's sake.)

 

[Antari]

No real impact here... I still won't be buying anything made by Ubisoft.

Joysticks are on consoles as well. Analogue sticks work just as well, just slightly differently. like I said, I've never played a flight sim on the PC. I do agree with the demo being boring (interesting developments from HAWX 1 though) and the new DRM being utter shite.

 

[Corohan]

I'm too busy playing Starcraft 2 anyway.

 

[Mistermixmaster]

Aww, I was looking forward to this (seeing the amount of hours I spent on H.A.W.X.)... I could get it for the PS3 I guess, it's just that I wouldn't know how the controls would work out, and I liked them a lot on PC. Wait... I think PSN has a demo out, so I can try that out and decide wether or not to buy it...

Still, a shame that it's being delayed =/

It's out now isn't it? As a bonus they have added Directx 11 and tessellation. For those kind of extras over the console versions I don't month waiting a month or two extra.
