Comanche announced for PC
Comanche is a modern team-based online multiplayer helicopter shooter set in the near future. Choose from an array of Comanche and drone configurations, and utilize their strengths to your tactical advantage.
Experience a new era of thrilling dog-fights and stealthy drone close quarter action. Hone your skills and compete with other pilots in ranked matches. After the Iran-US RQ170 incident, in which a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) was hacked and captured through cyberwarfare, the US army secretly revived the development of the RAH-66 helicopter program for special operations. The goal was to develop a highly maneuverable, highly advanced stealth war machine for impervious and mountainous terrain, that can deploy unhackable low-range drones to operate in high-risk environments. The program was a full success, and the Comanche special units seemed unstoppable in their missions.
But then the blueprints leaked through a whistleblower website, and so every group and power, who could afford it, built and modified the Comanche for their own purposes. A new era of helicopter warfare had begun.
Key Features
- Two in one: Control an technically advanced version of the legendary Comanche helicopter in heated dog-fights, and step into its accompanying drone for close quarter combat.
- Many strategic opportunities: Pick one of many Comanche / Drone combinations armed with varied weapons and unique gadgets that compliments your playing style.
- Asymmetrical gameplay: Be either on the attacking or the defending side.

That name brings back memories.
At the time i was still messing around a lot with games like Jane's F-15 and Longbow 2. And then somewhere around 2000 screenshots like this started to appear in game magazines.

I couldn't believe my eyes, those water effects looked amazing at the time! And that helicopter was the coolest thing ever.
But yea... this is one way to revive a game series and kill it before it has even come out.
I remember I would just hover my helicopter over the water and daydream back then.

Damn shame that it's online multiplayer, was a fan of the older games and would have loved to see a campaign mode that also had co-op option. Seeing the drones in that closed space reminded me of something like Descent and what's with stealing Daft Punk Tron sound-a-like music for the trailer.

I remember the old Commanche game that had a single player campaign. If this is only a multiplayer shooter, no thanks...

I too have no interest in multiplayer, but if it has a single-player campaign or decent bots I would still consider getting it. I don't mind multiplayer-only games as long as the bots offer a real challenge.
