Yeah the movie showing me all this "Win" made me feel like a excited kid before christmas.
So what I did was to download the mod and start a Fl server, to test the current Mod version.
Some points.
The Fighter Vs Capital is very realistic, its possible to evade and be able to destroy a Capital class ship... But it would take for ever and it would be extremely difficult. This I liked, I got onto a Rheinland Heavy Fighter, loaded it with missiles and went out.. Met a patrol of Bundschu that had a Gunboat (rheinland) and had a go at it,the missiles did a good job, it was a beutiful performance, but got shot down after two rounds of missiles.
Wingmen, yeah you can have wingmen of the faction your with, just get a wingmen equipment thingy (cant remember name) and sit outside the faction base. Soon several NPC's will come and join you.
Cap armor... Theyre buffed... More then I would have imagined.. It was lovely fighting with a cruiser against another cruiser, it took a long time and the effects where awesome
Effects... Yeah the Flak mod has several graphical improvements (gloom) and changes how the space is seen (it was AWESOME!) unfortunely, if you dont have a good graphics card your going to get lag.
Flak Cannons, are comming next version. Ive read that theyve spent Alot of time on it. Saw some interesting videos on their site aswell. Im going to download it and try it out when it comes.
Yeah... lovely and Oh:
Flak is a vanilla Mod, no new ships (one I think it was actually) but no others. And they still make it great:P
