    I'm so happy you ended up talking about Apache Air Assault!
    You Said the game was arcade-y, however, if you wish to, there was a difficulty setting that allowed you to have advanced controls, and these felt very similar to War thunder's system, and allowed you to do some funky stuff. Aside from the campagn, there was also a bunch of side missions that felt very unique. The very first one gave you an Apache that had no hellfires, and you had to destroy a tank collumn before it reached an ennemy base. Man that game was dope, even thought it was very straight forward. I'm feeling nostalgic now lol

It's almost as if I have watched a child grow up before my very eyes, witnessing their journey from innocence to maturity, and it is truly a beautiful thing to behold. From the humble beginnings of World War II-era planes to the modern fighters of today, War Thunder's growth is a testament to the power of human creativity and innovation, and I am grateful to have been a part of its journey.

Apparently that's the title it was released as by Gaijin for polish market :D .

    I was waiting for you to mention wings of prey. So I used to play that a long freaking time ago, and I wish I could find the screenshot I had because you'd get a giggle from it. But during War Thunder's earliest alpha, if you had that funky account that wings of prey used you could get into it. Early war thunder's golden eagles were called Yums, which I thought was the funniest thing ever. Anyway, I forget what the hell you got for being in the early alpha, but you did get some special funny planes, that I'm 95% sure are removed from the game.

    Great video. I appreciate the time and effort it took to create this video. Congrats ! I'm glad to see Wings of Prey and Apache Air Assault on the list. I loved those games however was so very frustrating trying to connect to their servers on Wings of Prey. So many bugs in the systems, terrible server connection if you could get one. But the game was visually stunning and so many missions to fly. I believe if they re-released it and made a better host/client connection it would be popular. Apache Air Assault was also fun and thermal view of the insurgents on the ground was so realistic looking. I only wished they had a multiplayer component. I'm referring to the PC versions with a server and a host. Too bad there was not another option to connect to a server instead of the Yuplay servers which are long gone.

    17:53 And that's the funny part, I enjoy videos like this showing older games because you never know when you'll find something goofy a studio made a long time ago. Also may have grabbed X-Blades/Blades of Time and Wings of Prey the Demo, gonna give them a shot. Couldn't find Paragraph 86 anywhere googling it so that sucks.

    To answer your question, the Mq8b is a drone helicopter based off the schweizer 330 and 333 and was used by the US navy until retirement in 2022, it is currently being replaced by the MQ8c, which is based on the bell 407

    I bought and played IL-2 Sturmovik so much back in the 2010s. I still have my copy with the pre-owend $17.99 sticker with a near-mint condition manual and disk. Now I just got the MiG-29 in war thunder and looking back I have come a long way, and been Gaijined a lot along that path. But if given the chance to do it all again, I would gladly live the experience, but skip the grind.

Im not joking. They are very similiar. Move on all fours and then lunge at the player in almos the same way !

    Birds of steel on the Xbox 360 was genesis for me. I recently went back to that game and did you know there are premium vehicles for that game? I believe a P-47 thunderbolt and a couple other planes were Xbox market add ons, as well as a couple maps or missions (and the usual silver lions buying mechanism)… gave me crazy whiplash and was amazing to see how far War Thunder has come since 1.39 when I started playing

  • @santoast24
    @santoast24 Год назад +4

    God I played the hell out of Il 2 Sturmovik on Xbox 360 (good game but a fair few problems)
    But Birds of Steel
    OH MAN Birds of Steel
    Only counting console games, there is maybe NO GAME I played more as a kid than Birds of Steel. Probably my first real war-based video game (unless you count Lego Star Wars).
    I vividly remember playing those missions, ones like "The Two Against 39" or "To Scratch One Flattop" as a kid and almost feeling like I was there. I wasnt just playing a video game.
    I was defending my brothers on Wake Island, and even tho I knew the history well, desperately hoping that USS Enterprise (CV-6) would mount that horizon and save us.
    I unlocked every. single. thing. in that game. And as far as the main American campaign goes, I beat it in a matter of...... 4 days? Maybe 5?
    When I started playing War Thunder I had NO idea they were made by the same company until the snail stared me dead in the eyes and the music brought me back to being the first American pilot to go toe to toe with the Japanese over Pearl Harbour, or fighting my way through clouds of Zero's to deliver Hiryou her final fate.

    For anyone interested. The soundtrack for apache air assault is absolute 🔥🔥🔥 there's a RUclips Playlist that I can't be bothered linking that has all but one of the songs I'm aware of, that I can't find anywhere else anyways. If you find it two good songs to get a vibe of is the third song, and the fourth one from the bottom!!

    I remember 13yo me sitting in front of my PS3 playing Birds of Steel everyday, looking back and seeing how far its coke yet how much has remained the same just makes me think about time, and every time when I once and a while boot it up on my old PS3, it takes me back to those days, in a B-17 over the Ruhr, or in a Spitfire over the channel, a Mustang over Belgium, with my buddies from middle school just thinking if they'll ever make the game better.

    IIRC You'd unlock the planes for multiplayer by doing certain things in the campaign in IL2, and by Birds of Steel they had the really really early warthunder tech-tree

    As a kid, I loved "Apache Air Assault," especially because I had family that were pilots for the US Army. It was always fun to come home from school and play with my younger brother. We always crashed and mostly didn't know what we were doing, but it was the best helicopter-based alternative that we ever played.
