Take to the skies of war torn Europe and experience daring air combat at the dawn of aviation. Re-enact famous air battles fought by legendary aces such as Manfred von Richtofen, James McCudden, Georges Guynemer and Eddie Rickenbacker. Rise of Flight transports you to a time when courageous pilots fought each other for control of the sky high above the bloody trenches. In aircraft made of canvas and wood they battled to the death. While some survived to become legends, most met a fiery fate. Do you have the skills and the courage to become an ACE?
Rise of Flight is one of the Top 100 games of All Time according to PC Gamer and it has received the Platinum Award from PC Pilot magazine and has been acknowledged multiple times by the flight-sim community at SimHQ.com and elsewhere as one of the best in the genre. You can fly in several different game modes from single-player Campaigns to massive Multiplayer dogfights. There is something for all aviation fans to enjoy.

There's a lot to be said about Rise of Flight, even now in 2022.
Pros
- Large Selection of aircraft at coffee shop prices makes getting into it extremely easy. When stuff is on sale you can quite easily build a backlog of half a dozen aircraft to fly on 20$.
- Three well put together maps for those interested in World War 1 aviation
- Fun, and not too terribly complex engine management. For those that want to (you can make it automatic!) you can experience the fun of keeping these old engines properly cooled and their fuel/air mixtures in line to get the most out of them.
- Very flexible settings. Including the ability to set joystick curves on individual aircraft, a feature we lost with the newer Il-2 GB.
- A solid career mode that can be a lot of fun for those who prefer single player
- A decent bit of mods that have been made over the years that help to alleviate some of the base games problems. There is also a wonderfully crafted campaign generator that the community uses to this day that adds even more to the aforementioned career mode.
- It's still fairly pretty, despite being over 11 years old.
- The PC Min req was made long ago, most modern pcs (even ones you'd pick up from cheap retail outlets) can meet the minimum fairly easily. All else fails, just go download it. It's free to play on both Steam and their own launcher, which can be connected into a singular account.
- Good in game view controls, head tracking is really not a requirement and can be alleviated with some intelligent resetting of views in game.
- Many modern flight sims feel like you're seriously at a disadvantage without a full set of controls but RoF can be easily made very playable with something as simple as a Logitech 3d pro.
- Okay mouse controls, they're not the best thing ever, but if you're used to a game like War Thunder you will feel fairly at home.
- No more broken patches. What's done is done, and that leads into the cons.
Cons
- The game has been abandoned. 1C-777 has moved on to Il-2 Great Battles, and though they are porting the Rise of Flight aircraft to it (via the Flying Circus packs) it is taking time.
- The multiplayer scene is comatose. I choose this word specifically because dead really isn't accurate. There exists a huge number of people that still play Rise of Flight, or would return to its multiplayer if others did as well. The Il-2 GB Flying Circus community runs a few servers on their side that still see quite healthy populations during the week.
- No built in VR support. For some this is a must, and there has been work done to try and get VR headsets working in it using 3rd party software. To my knowledge, it works okay, but I'm still using a gigantic TV as a monitor so I can't say for certain.
- The damage model can sometimes be a bit odd. The aircraft are often much more fragile than they should be. I'm talking 'he put three bullets into my wing in just the right place and it fell off' levels of oddness. This is (mostly) fixed in Flying Circus.
If you're looking for a WW1 flight sim then RoF is still a fantastic option, especially if you're on a budget. The other two options are the aforementioned Flying Circus (which is NOT cheap, being only sort of reasonable on sale) or Wings Over Flanders Fields (which is relatively expensive, but cheaper than Flying Circus when not on sale and offers the best single player experience. At the cost of absolutely no multiplayer one at all.)
Thank you, good sir. You are a scholar and a gentleman.
It even does the oil spill thing, wow!
Watching you try of spot your target with your goggles covered in oil gave me a real sense of what i might have felt like to be a fighter pilot in that era. Pretty scary!
I have been flying every flight sim out there. Rise of Flight and DCS is the only one that truly has that proper feel of weight and feel of flying.
The sound, wind, physics,
Those gusts of wind really play havoc on accuracy of a Nieuport 17. Nice flying.
yep -- stick with this until they make flying circus more than a (very slight) prettier but no content version
On discount right now, all the DLC for this costs over $25 less than Flying Circus at full price
I've been playing Rise of flight on and off since the beta.
I'm planning on returning proper because DCS is about to become win 10 only.
Great footage... terrible shooting! 🤣
Thats just The Game Nightmare Hard To Shoot Only 1 or 2 People can get a kill
Yes thats why its called simulation, in real life control a war plane is so hard
Given the damage to your upper wing surface, I am very surprised that the seam didn't give way and that you didn't shed your fabric.
Game is free but other planes still need to buy
Is there a flight simulator for ww1 planes that doesn't really matter with fuel mixture or anything super overly realistic like that. Just engine start, and throttle, and other stuff like that. Also, can I play this without vr? Can I set different controls to look up, down, left, and right
all of the above are configurable in the settings, it can literally be as easy or as difficult as you want it to be, mixture and radiators can be automatically or manually controlled, however since these planes are fairly rudimentary planes like the Airco DH.2 doesnt have a throttle, speed is controlled from mixture, if you play late war this isnt really an issue though.
BRILLIANT Sim
I got this game and it was a fever dream of 1990s looking graphics and the same dude talking to himself on a training mission... Did i get the right game or is there an expansion?
You know there's more to a flight sim than pretty graphics...
I personally rate realism and flight model ove how pretty the visuals are.
@@sahhull oh yeah man me too. But i genuinely think i got the wrong sim lol
@@lilvinegar5526 Possibly Red Baron 3D?
It sounds like you are talking about Red Baron. It was a WWI flight sim developed by Dynamix.
how do i play it after i download it
so nc game i ever play🙂
i could really need a game like this on ps3 lol but really anything would be great
hit me back when u can tell me a definit answer. thanks
It did not have the option to fly without the cockpit when I used it. You can see much better in real life so I think it's a level playing field to have the option to remove it.
I wish people still playing in the servers :/
Can you drove the plane or no...
5:24
can u get a disc from this on ps3 or
PC only, friend.
Your ready bad at this game, always lead your shots (in front of the enemy not at it)
Does this game require a good computer to run on?
@@idiotwithinternet3708 windows 10
You can always turn the quality down to run it with an average PC
Ok, thanks
@@Death_Trooper-177 FFS Windows 10 is not your system specs.
@@sahhull It's got a 1080p monitor and a keyboard with pretty lights.
THIS GREAT GAME IS FREE??
is it on ps4? :]
No, PC only and you need a yolk and rudder pedals
@@randomizer01j23 you don't need them. You can use a mouse.
@@No.10_SopwithMan yea but it’s garbage
@@randomizer01j23 well that's what i use, but Im getting a stick a pedals soon
Does it have anything that War thunder can't give you?
- WWI Planes
- Harder
- More of a Flight Simulator (Because its Hard to find enemies till you're in 1918
- Career Mode (I Think isn't in War Thunder)
- Etc Idk.
Whoops Idc*
Also Forgot About Built-in Cheats Kind of
@@user-lc4bm2tl7i oh nice. That does sound interesting indeed.
Flight simulator is nice.
I remember spending a whole day in war thunder just trying to learn how to land without crashing. And another day to learn how to do it on an aircraft carrier
dude you look like those game ads doing everything wrong to make you buy the product XD just relax and be jentle on the cloche, you are yanking it everywhere!
You shoot late almost everythime
so its war thunder with less planes , ill try it looks good .
Far from that, the flight model is much more realistic and you spend more time flying than fighting. Just like other flight simulators.
@@phj9894 ooh so it's more of a flight simulator
@@knightowl2165 yes, it's far from casually flying and shooting.
Free on steam
free lol
It is free to play. Not a lot of options planewise but it is more than enough to have fun... if you want every plane? Yeah it is far from free.
cringe spyware too
