AirQuake? Really? - Imagine an AirPlane flying around on the start map. That doesn't make much sense does it? Now, imagine an airplane flying around a level with cliffs, Rocket shooting guard towers and military bases. That's more like it, eh? Now, add a few "Drone planes" and what do you get? AirQuake!



The Basics - When i first placed this one-man-TC i found it rather interesting. The 5 planes are pretty kewl to look at, and the Military base stuff looks really great! It's also very easily controlled, too, and you can do some amazing stuff with 'em once you really get the hang of it. In Multiplayer we had a lot of fun teaming up. Probably most because it was almost impossible to see who was who in heat of the battle ;) The Helicopter is also very cool to fly around with, although i kinda like the ground vehicles more. Man, those are really kewl too! We had a little 2-on-2 match with ground vehicles, and we all really enjoyed it.



Now, what's next? - Looking at Iikka Ker„nen's to-do list (now, that IS a weird name, or what!?) i can just imagine how cool this patch will be when it's out of beta stage. I must say that i really like the idea of mission-based levels. Imagine a map where you where going to guard a plane thru an area where there where lotsa enemy vehicles or something.. that'd rock!



Final Words - As soon as AirQuake is out of beta, or at least improved a lot, i'll re-review it. Due to the many "Build's" (or beta's if you'd like) released, i cannot review every single one of them. As for The AirQuake project. Good luck! This is gonna be one mother of a patch, once it's completed! Keep it up! (Oh, and please make it work with GLQuake!!)
