Q: The direction for sim design these days seems to be interoperability. Does SIMIS have any plans for connectable simulations? A: Yes, but not with this product. It is something we are looking at seriously for future games. Q: What are the goals for online play: number of players in which environment? A: We are looking at six players for the co-operative missions, with up to eight players in the deathmatch missions. Siberia will be the setting for the death matches, with the other campaign areas available for co-operative combat missions and the campaign. Q: What will be the minimum and recommended system for Ka52? A: Minimum spec is a P200 with 32 Mb RAM and a 4 Mb accelerated graphics card. Recommended spec will be a 300 - 400 MHz machine, with 64 Mb RAM and an 8 Mb graphics card.
Q: Tell us about any changes to the view system compared to Team Apache? A: We have a similar suite of views to Team Apache, and are adding a padlock view, since that seems to be desired by many people. One of the principal differences is that we no longer have a 2D cockpit; only a 3D option. That cockpit is hugely detailed, containing various instruments, multi-function displays, and even an animated weapons officer.
