WOW I had to upgrade my 386SX from 2 meg of ram to four just to play this game. The 40 meg hard drive also took a beating. Who else remembers the awesome manual that came with this game? It's still my favorite game to date. Good times, good times.
I remember this game was the reason I bought a co-processor for my good old 386. And indeed the maps were rendered at lightning-speed after that upgrade. I still have that 387 co-processor in my computer museum. Ahhhh, those were the days!
This was the very first game I ever played when computers first came into Mauritius. My father bought a PC and we played this game for hours. I used to wake up early morning to find my father still playing this game, so I used to sit next to him half asleep watching him kick ass!!! I still love this game, I wish they remade this whilst still keepin' it fun without adding graphical crap and long-learning curves!
OMG, i cant believe this, i still can say the words from the intro, i used to be a 10 year old boy, i didnt even speak english, but i loved this game. i still dont understand the first 2 sentences though lol, what do they say? "damn it...." "backoff... "
I was just watching wing commander videos and came across this. I completely forgot about this game but it was one of the first games I ever played, right next to duke nukem 3D. The "game over" funeral might even be one of my earliest memories O.o
This game's background setting (shown in the manual) was intensely political and amazingly fleshed out. There's just something romantic and fallen-heroic about an era of mercenary pilots in a war-torn region. More games like these, please.
I have an old PC with P II processor with dual boot of DOS+Windows 95 . One of the games installed in it is this sim - the CD version . It was my 1st sim & I spent hours on hours playing it with CH Flight Stick Pro ( the gameport connection of course :) ) . Now I have attached to this PII what were the Elite of game controllers for those days : Thrustmaster FCS Mk.II joystick + Thrustmaster WCS Mk.II Throttle . I miss those days & nights ...
damn right. I learned all my gunnery skills in this game (i was too dumb to learn how to use missiles, so i just closed to gun range on all targets.) Man i hope they port this game to STEAM or something (along with the first two wing commanders)
I remember waiting and waiting for this game/combat sim. It was my first experience with a severely delayed (>1 year) release date. Fun though, and was worth the wait. It was also the first game I upgraded my PC to be able to play. And it was the first game I learned that no amount of equipment can make up for sloppy code. Was stuff beautiful. Thx for posting!
same here...the one i downloaded from underdogs was the original disc version, which i couldn't quite figure out on my laptop. Dang, i wish i bought the CD and the Kilrathi Saga when i had the chance!
This is the best game ever, i soo wish they would do a remake, the mix of simulation and RPG is amazing, for all thoose who remember C:\SCCD in DOS ROCKS!!! run it in DOSBOX, i still got the original CD :)
yeah...i can still remember in the expansion pack, i had a lot of trouble gunning down those f4s, they are like rhinos with 200mm armour. wasted a lot of cannon shells before i made a kill.
I recall the introduction is more longer than this as there should be a scene where two Russian pilot in Mig 29s communicate to each other before this uploaded part rolls.
@Juli9803 Busca en páginas abandonware como Ellosnuncaloharian o Underdogs, creo que para un juego tan antiguo necesitarás usar el DOSBOX, que emula ordenadores antiguos.
@lupus4 This game is awesome. The only newer Game who is quiete good as Strike Commander and Pacific Strike is "Ace Combat 6". This game has got a great Story and really good graphics. I love it, like i loved Strike Commander and Pacific Strike.
hey i have installed this great game on my pc but for some reason the speech does not come out!! there is music and everything but no speech. have installed speech patch too!! can some one help!!!
AWE32 rocked in 93 £200 it shoud have lol.but if you can get hold of a orchid game wave, that suported sb16 and midi. google it..it was a very good card.
Just why were all "american planes" painted in Israel desert camo? USA F-16 werent painted that way - at that point in time. By the way, the playability came first in SCCD. I remember dodging missiles and at one time I ran out of fuel and so calculated trajectory I could still manage to land, tens of miles out the runway, almost stalling the plane. As it wasn't meant to be a simulator, so that I even felt sorry for the enemies, because each one down meant that the endgame was closer.
erm. Because you weren't playing as the USA? You were playing as mercenaries, maybe you bought the planes off Israel? Maybe you took it to Al'asad's Thrifty Spray and coated the hardware in pearlescent local vogue? Factual recollection beats military know-how every day of the week ;-)

Awesome. The games of the 90's were much cooler than the games of today.

Ooh man, this takes me back. Mature game for its time, no doubt.

Thanks for posting!
2011 AD... So far in the future!
I played this as a little kid. It was my favorite game.

This was a fantastic game. Loved it so much. Wing Commander is closer to the heart, but this was wonderful.
loved that game back in the early days... never could play the full game out cause my cd was busted, but still loved that one
damn right. I learned all my gunnery skills in this game (i was too dumb to learn how to use missiles, so i just closed to gun range on all targets.) Man i hope they port this game to STEAM or something (along with the first two wing commanders)

ROFL i use to tplay this. never used rockets or anything. jus the cannon, ah good times
HAHAHAHAHAHHA I was a teenager at that time. Got some orgasms with those cinematics LOL
This is still my absolute favorite game of all time!
Chris Roberts needs to make a comeback.
It took 40 Mb on the HDD. It was shock in 1993!!!
gaableenz1 i still used my old atari 65xe at that time;))
Ha, I was a young 'un when this came out. I remember being stoked by the naughty poster in the barracks. Uh, great game, too!
Oh man that was such an awesome game.
damn it, you take him out or I will.
Backoff, I almost got tone.
(meaning the "locked on" sound from his AIM9 sidewinder)
"south america 2011ad" LOL yeah that did seem ages away back then.
same here...the one i downloaded from underdogs was the original disc version, which i couldn't quite figure out on my laptop. Dang, i wish i bought the CD and the Kilrathi Saga when i had the chance!
I remember the dog fights where very close up and personal. It was wing commander but with gravity!
This is the best game ever, i soo wish they would do a remake, the mix of simulation and RPG is amazing, for all thoose who remember C:\SCCD in DOS ROCKS!!! run it in DOSBOX, i still got the original CD :)
such an amazing game, this and Ultima 8
God, I miss this game...
Routed here from the RSI 24 hour countdown? THUMBS!!!
yeah...i can still remember in the expansion pack, i had a lot of trouble gunning down those f4s, they are like rhinos with 200mm armour. wasted a lot of cannon shells before i made a kill.
Just Completed it again... :D
@Boomhauer393 Strike Commander is set in 2011? Cool!
I recall the introduction is more longer than this as there should be a scene where two Russian pilot in Mig 29s communicate to each other before this uploaded part rolls.
