Combat-Helo PC

Combat-Helo: Operation Ouroboros is an advanced simulator of the best combat helicopter, the AH-64D Apache Longbow. Tricubic Studios studio is responsible for the performance of the title.

Tricubic Studios was founded by four people: scientific consultant Dorothy Miyake, physicist Fred Naar associated for many years with physical engines in flight simulators, David Hopkinson working on mods for Medieval Total War (English Civil War) and Strike Fighters simulator, and Richard Hawley, creator of tools for helicopter simulators, including Longbow 2.

In Combat-Helo: Operation Ouroboros we can sit at the helm of the most deadly helicopter - the popular AH-64D Apache Longbow. The authors focused on reproducing the whole machine as faithfully as possible. It is about all kinds of parameters, armament and the appearance of the helicopter, both from the outside and inside. The best proof of this is the meticulousness with which the cockpit itself was made, which consists of over 400 elements and 350 different types of buttons and knobs. The effectiveness of our machine is additionally enhanced by special equipment in the form of night vision, radar and targeting systems allowing to locate the target even from a few kilometers.

Before we start fighting, we can undergo training at the training ground in the United States. For combat operations the authors created a campaign taking place in Afghanistan, specifically in the province of Herat. A total of 40 square kilometres of faithfully reproduced area of western Afghanistan, with thousands of destructible objects and hectares of forests, deserts, canyons and mountains, have been prepared for production. The game did not run out of cities with many detailed buildings.

In order to fully enjoy the title, the authors recommend buying a throttle, joystick and pedals. Such a set allows you to take full advantage of the advanced capabilities of the simulator. For less skilled and beginner players there is an option to reduce realism, which makes it much easier to control the machine.

In addition to controlling the machine, players have the ability to move freely around the military base. If you get tired of playing alone, you can also use a multiplayer that allows you to have fun in cooperation mode.
