F-15 Strike Eagle II Trivia Amiga version The Amiga loading screen for this game was an overscan image, which was a first for MicroProse. Base In F-15 Strike Eagle II you can be followed all the way back to base by enemy jets - but don't expect any help, such as planes being scrambled or anti-aircraft fire - you're on your own! They just don't seem to care down there on the ground. Bugs In the PC version if you ran out of fuel far from base, you could fly upside down and your F-15 would 'fall' upwards, so the player could make it all the way back to base without crashing. Not only that, but enemy missiles would not hurt your plane when flying this way. Cover Bill Stealey was most annoyed when he discovered that MicroProse had commissioned different box art for the Amiga/ST version of the game, although he did admit that the painting was pretty excellent. Development The conversion to the Amiga/ST was being developed as Bush senior started the first invasion of Iraq. There was serious consideration of tying in the Amiga/ST version to Desert Storm, but fear of a publicity backlash put the dampers on that. F-19 Stealth Fighter If you have F-19 Stealth Fighter, you can copy two of the game worlds over and play it with F-15 SE2, replacing two of the existing game worlds. One of the first games, if not the first, that managed to playback a digital audio sample on the AdLib (remember: the AdLib only had a FM chip and no DAC). It was a voice at the beginning of the game which said "Strike Eagle, clear for takeoff". Microprose used that hack in M1 Tank Platoon and Stunt Track Racer around the same time.

TAXINAUT A space-taxi-sim / open-world-RPG with a seamless transition between planetary and in-space flight set in a large galaxy. Explore the Kyprei-41 galaxy as a lonely TAXINAUT carrying fares across alien worlds. Descent onto planets and fly over alien cities and landscapes. Land at bars, diners, garages and many other common and exotic locations. Interact with the locals to ask for directions or learn about the many esoteric and often clandestine aspects of the Kyprei-41 galaxy. Features RPG and space taxi sim / life sim in one: Lead the life of a working-class astronaut, pilot a spaceship and transport passengers across an open-world galaxy. Fly both on planets and in space. Seamlessly ascent from a planet into space then fly or warp to another planet and descent to it: no loading screens, no "teleporting". Over 100,000 star-systems with planets and stations to explore. A grimy sci-fi / fantasy setting: think Taxi Driver in space. An optional 30+ hours main story-line and 4 secondary story-lines. Modify your clone with gongs (an RPG-like skill system). Unlock equipment and other items for purchase at your home and modify your ship to receive free items every time you sleep. Various foods, drink & drugs with various effects (e.g. skill-buffs). Weapons and other items to deal with hostile ships, indivuals and creatures. Completely controllable with just the mouse (one hand free to hold a drink, no keyboard needed) or use a controller with the specially made focus-system. Relaxing real-time with pause like controls: Mouse-click pauses the game to give you time to think: pick a weapon, pick a target, click again to resume and watch what happens. 13 unique music tracks An optional tutorial integrated into the game, a manual and over 20 short and to the point videos to help explain things as they come up. Everything fully handmade over nearly 10 years by a solo dev: no engine and no AI. Highly moddable if you know or are willing to learn Java. System-requirements Windows 10/11 or Linux (should run fine on MacOS if you have latest Java installed). Above average multi-core processor (probably at least a 3GHz i5). 6GB of RAM. A display capable of 1920x1080 at 32bit. GTX-1050 or better. Mouse with left & right buttons and scroll-wheel. (an actual separate mouse, not a touch-pad like on a laptop. Although a touch-pad would work it will be very awkward). Controllers are supported IF you have a way to map your controller to keyboard and mouse-functions. It's not just "thumbstick for mouse": TAXINAUT comes with a focus-system especially made for controllers. More Information

EF 2000 Average score: 90% (based on 19 ratings) Average score: 3.1 out of 5 (based on 14 ratings with 1 reviews) The Good DID prided themselves on their accurate flight models and striking graphics, and EF2000 was one of the first titles to include a useful 'padlock view' (a feature pioneered in the company's previous game, 'TFX'). EF2000 is still good to look at today, helped by the decision to set the game in the bleak snowy wastelands of northern Norway. The sky is generally very dark and moody, and the sensation of being locked in an air-conditioned box, floating in a freezing black wilderness is quite unique. In common with the last two 'Falcon' games, 'European Air War' and sadly very few others, EF2000 had a dynamic campaign in which your actions had bearing on subsequent missions. The simulation engine was complicated enough to be satisfying but not so complicated as to inspire panic, whilst the sensation of flying at great speed through narrow, glacial canyons - with time advance on, of course - was as close to the end of 'Firefox' as any computer game has come. Note that a patch exists to provide for functionality with 3D cards. The Bad DID's games always had two huge flaws which are present here. Firstly, the manual is awful, explaining in detail what each control and MFD screen is, but not what it does or why you might want to use it. Much is written about the theory of dropping laser-guided bombs, but nothing explains how this is achieved in the game. Several key commands and much information were also left out. Secondly, the game is full of bugs and omissions, even with the various patches which were released (this came at a time when patches were quite unusual). Without the patch, the only way to see how many weapons your plane had was to pop up one of the external views; there was no way to load specific weapons in advance; it was never explained how to finish a mission, so that you spent a lot of time flying around on patrol, landing back at base, and... sitting on the runway, with the mission continuing (the answer was to use one of the time-advance controls, but this was never explained). The existence of a separate add-on pack, TACTCOM, to provide for internet and extra functionality suggests that DID needed more time, although the majority of their games are flawed in similar ways, including this game's recent sequel. In fairness, the real-world EF2000 has been beset by problems as well. The Bottom Line This game is quite hard to find nowadays; Ocean Software no longer exist, indeed both DID and Infrogrammes seem to have vanished (the latter rebranded as Atari). It was available for a time in a two-pack with TACTCOM, although Falcon 4.0 makes it obsolete, bar the moody scenery. A sequel, Eurofighter Typhoon, was released to little impact in 2001 and is now available as an ultra-cheap budget game.

The Bottom Line This game is quite hard to find nowadays; Ocean Software no longer exist, indeed both DID and Infrogrammes seem to have vanished (the latter rebranded as Atari). It was available for a time in a two-pack with TACTCOM, although Falcon 4.0 makes it obsolete, bar the moody scenery. A sequel, Eurofighter Typhoon, was released to little impact in 2001 and is now available as an ultra-cheap budget game.

Friends, today in EF2000, we're finally gonna take out that runway. | Game Link: http://dlvr.it/TQNdBc | Stream Links: http://dlvr.it/TQNdBf | Discord: http://dlvr.it/TQNdBh

TAXINAUT A space-taxi-sim / open-world-RPG with a seamless transition between planetary and in-space flight set in a large galaxy. Explore the Kyprei-41 galaxy as a lonely TAXINAUT carrying fares across alien worlds. Descent onto planets and fly over alien cities and landscapes. Land at bars, diners, garages and many other common and exotic locations. Interact with the locals to ask for directions or learn about the many esoteric and often clandestine aspects of the Kyprei-41 galaxy. Features RPG and space taxi sim / life sim in one: Lead the life of a working-class astronaut, pilot a spaceship and transport passengers across an open-world galaxy. Fly both on planets and in space. Seamlessly ascent from a planet into space then fly or warp to another planet and descent to it: no loading screens, no "teleporting". Over 100,000 star-systems with planets and stations to explore. A grimy sci-fi / fantasy setting: think Taxi Driver in space. An optional 30+ hours main story-line and 4 secondary story-lines. Modify your clone with gongs (an RPG-like skill system). Unlock equipment and other items for purchase at your home and modify your ship to receive free items every time you sleep. Various foods, drink & drugs with various effects (e.g. skill-buffs). Weapons and other items to deal with hostile ships, indivuals and creatures. Completely controllable with just the mouse (one hand free to hold a drink, no keyboard needed) or use a controller with the specially made focus-system. Relaxing real-time with pause like controls: Mouse-click pauses the game to give you time to think: pick a weapon, pick a target, click again to resume and watch what happens. 13 unique music tracks An optional tutorial integrated into the game, a manual and over 20 short and to the point videos to help explain things as they come up. Everything fully handmade over nearly 10 years by a solo dev: no engine and no AI. Highly moddable if you know or are willing to learn Java. System-requirements Windows 10/11 or Linux (should run fine on MacOS if you have latest Java installed). Above average multi-core processor (probably at least a 3GHz i5). 6GB of RAM. A display capable of 1920x1080 at 32bit. GTX-1050 or better. Mouse with left & right buttons and scroll-wheel. (an actual separate mouse, not a touch-pad like on a laptop. Although a touch-pad would work it will be very awkward). Controllers are supported IF you have a way to map your controller to keyboard and mouse-functions. It's not just "thumbstick for mouse": TAXINAUT comes with a focus-system especially made for controllers. More Information
