Tired of playing Falcon 3? Well here are some strange and funny things to do
|
|
with it ( in less than 5 minutes!!! Well most of them! ) ...
|
|
|
|
1. Choose Red Flag, load LESSON 1, before taking off select Mk84 bombs and
|
|
try to load a maximum of 24 bombs, this as you'll guess will make a hell
|
|
of a crater! Now, take off and as soon as you're airborne, let's say
|
|
50 feet above ground, release all bombs and then eject, what will happen?
|
|
Try it! Sometimes you will be 'vaporized' and destroyed in the fireball
|
|
but the game will still continue and the only way to get back to the main
|
|
menu is by pressing ESC
|
|
|
|
2. After shooting enemy MiGs, have you ever noticed white little points
|
|
in the sky, those are ejected pilots, switch to guns and point your
|
|
plane towards them, FIRE!!! and see how they demonstrate Newton's law
|
|
of gravity!
|
|
|
|
3. Again, in LESSON 1 take off and then after 15 or 30 seconds been airborne
|
|
return and try to get some AGM65s and smash those hangars of yours, at a
|
|
low level (below 100 feet) and high speed. Even more difficult try to get
|
|
into a hangar (just before you'll crash)...
|
|
|
|
4. Last time for LESSON 1, take off and climb to about 30,000 feet or even
|
|
higher. Try to be exactly on top of your airbase, ripple a maximum of 24
|
|
bombs (that's if you have 3.0c) preferably Mk84s then dive straight towards
|
|
the ground, drop bombs, switch to outside view (9) and see the bombs fly
|
|
upwards. Enjoy all outside views, rotate, see your bombs behind you, switch
|
|
to ground and satellite views. At this point try to reach the ground before
|
|
the bombs do, without crashing preferably! If you succeed and are flying
|
|
nearby you might get caught also in the explosion... Instead of using Mk84s
|
|
it might be better using Mk82 high drag bombs that are supposed to take
|
|
longer to fall, try it! You can also try dropping only 2 at a time so you'll
|
|
cover a longer distance of "destruction"...
|
|
|
|
5. Are you still alive? OK! You think you're hot, don't ya? Try loading up
|
|
LESSON 7A, fly due north beyond the tank park (let's leave 'em to rest just
|
|
for today OK?) a few miles ahead of them are 2 missile launchers, don't
|
|
underestimate them, they can kill you in less than a blink. Try and fly
|
|
around the area and see how much time you can survive. You should NOT use
|
|
the ECM pod, just shake 'em off by pulling high Gs! Do not cheat either by
|
|
flying low and stay above 8000 feet! If you survive this create a mission
|
|
with more missile launchers and see how many missiles you can 'dodge'.
|
|
Try using mostly the '9' outside view with a little zoom out and looking
|
|
inside your cockpit for any launched missiles as least as possible.
|
|
|
|
6. Choose RED FLAG, then create a very simple mission: Just you and one F117.
|
|
Better if you can create another 'flight' for the Stealth Fighter in such
|
|
a way that both fly along the same path and you'll be right behind. Try to
|
|
see how 'invisible' it is to the radar, can you lock an AIM-120 missile
|
|
on it? Is it true that it is a 50 million dollar clay pigeon for a fighter?
|
|
|
|
7. Choose RED FLAG, load any simple mission (preferably one without any enemies)
|
|
so you don't have to bother about air combat, for instance LESSON1. Also try
|
|
setting unlimited fuel and armament to ON. If you're lucky you might start at
|
|
night time, if not exit and try and choose same option again until you have
|
|
night time. Now fly over Las Vegas and try bombing all those buildings that
|
|
have the lights on, see how much time it takes you to make the city dark!
|
|
|
|
8. Again with RED FLAG, look for Hoover Dam on your Nellis AFB map and see if you
|
|
can bomb it.
|
|
|
|
9. In RED FLAG try flying all the way due east following the river and discover
|
|
many interesting things along the way (cowboys, bridge, water faucet?) Try
|
|
dropping some bombs over them. How easy is it to shoot the cowboys with your
|
|
M20 gun?
|
|
|
|
10. Within the mission editor add 4 or more friendly aircrafts to fly along with
|
|
you. Choose a bombing mission or just fly any place where there's a target.
|
|
Approach the target and when you're close enough start dropping all your
|
|
bombs switch to wingmen's view (7) and have a better view of yourself bombing.
|
|
Be careful not to enjoy it for too long 'cuz you still might be in a dive so
|
|
remember to 'pull up'!!!
|
|
|
|
These are only just few of the wacky things you can do with this excellent
|
|
simulator, remember your imagination makes the limit. If you do have any other
|
|
tips I would appreciate any e-mail from other wild Falconers,
|
|
|
|
Thanks,
