    Welcome to the Rise of Flight forum!

    Rise of Flight is the first sim developed by Russian studio Neoqb, and distributed by Aerosoft.
    The game is focussed on the period around 1917, during the first world war, and gives players the opportunity to fly WW1 planes and participate in combat. The current version is 1.009.

    More info is available on the official site:

    Is it sim-like or arcade-like Ferry?

    I'm flying at the realistic settings Cees, and it's a real sim IMHO. Haven't yet tried the simpler flight dynamics option, but unless I get some kills real soon I'm afraid I might have to make things a bit easier for me...

    Cees, it is definitely a real sim and quite a challenge. Like Ferry, I'm able to keep a virtual aircraft in the virtual air. But its extremely difficult to fly a complete mission without a fatal error and shoot a virtual enemy in the same mission.......

    But flying under bridges is quite nice as well :d :d :d

    RoF intrigues me. However,....is it initially difficult to set up within the game and computer settings? Are there some glitches or a lot of glitches one has to be aware of?

    Hi Brad, I don't think RoF is hard to set up; there's a start screen where you can set graphics options and download updates. The only problem is that you'll need to restart the game every time you want to make changes. In the game you can set difficulty and controls, all pretty much straight forward.

    The biggest 'glitch' was of course the requirement for a permanent internet connection but that was fixed a few patches ago.

    Much thanks Ferry. I plan to go over the RoF official web sight and check it out more.
    * I forgot to ask,..........it seems where I read there's a monthly fee one has to pay. Is that true,...and how much is it? Or am I wrong on this point?

    Happy to inform you that NO fee is required to play.:salute:

    Ocasionally there are additional aircraft to purchase if you want to, but there is no obligation.

    I was looking at the boxed ROF at GameStop yesterday. Had it in my hand but didn't get it. Now I wish I had. Photos you guys show are outstanding.

    I don't have any flight sims installed since my old computer crapped out on me late last fall. Cougar isn't installed either, nor is my Tracker. Looks like it's time to get back in the air again.

    Ok... I went back to GameStop tonight and bought theh DVD of ROF Iron Cross Edition v1.013. Haven't installed it yet. When I do install do I have to get each and every patch, or just the latest one only?

    Thanks Stiz. I just finished the install, it check and and is in the Update download process now. Haven't run the sim yet. Have to intall my Cougar and Tracker software. At least I hope the Tracker works in ROF.

    This should be fun... back to the basics of flying and combat. maybe I can learn something this time around. LOL

    Rise of Flight thread

    Good Day Folks,

    I'm just new here and spotted this thread.
    Figured that it would be more neighborly if I brought in an initial 'offering'.
    I was following the thread on RoF and folks are looking for info on the game.
    I spotted this review, which I thought was quite informative on another site:

    http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/conten...-Cross-Edition

    After I read the review, I downloaded their free demo and signed up for their newsletters.
    The other day, I got notice that they ( http://riseofflight.com/en/store )are having a 50% sale that runs through the end of June.

    From the Demo, I can 'upgrade' to one of two different packages.

    Anyway, just wanted to say hello.

    Old Dog

    The latest release is 1.033c. However you don't need to worry as Rise of Flights updates itself (when asked to).

    Cheers,
