Forums - Nintendo - First details of HAWX 2 on Wii

- Takes place between H.A.W.X and H.A.W.X. 2 on the PS3/360
- Storyline cowritten by Flint Dille
- Ron Perlman and David Zayas voice acting
- Devs want the characters to be memorable
- One mission has you flying to different harbors in search of battleships, will need to wait while your bombers rearm before you call them again if you choose the wrong target
- Sometimes need to hit ground targets in on-rails segments, avoid hazards
- Another type of segment: Take on enemy tangos, focuses on more-close-up encounters
- Second player can usually join in at any time
- Drone missions: Have specific goals with the drones like locating hidden enemies, can lock on to a computer and hack into it by playing a mini-game (rotate Wiimot to line up your cursor with the glowing section of an on-screen circle), once the goal is complete, you move onto another computer
- Some missions take place in outer space, like when you fly a shuttle to a space station, space station explodes when you arrive, skydive back to terra firma and avoid debris
- Multiplayer: Top-down arcade shooter, up to 8 players (one player controls the ship with the Wiimote, the other controls another jet)

.....and the crowd goes silent! I didn' care to much for the first one, it was too irritating to fly back and forth to kill one plane. I liked that WWII game though, Blazing Angels. I got stuck halfway in but it was still fun.

I have HAWX on my iPod Touch. It's pretty cool. I kinda suck though...



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

Sounds cool i guess nice to know theyre paying attention to the wii version



I wonder why their making the Wii version seperate from the HD one though...

Are they really...  anytime i read "on-rails" with a wii game its always second rate.

I'm a little dubious. I just want a really polished flight sim for the Wii. Normally I'm on-board with developers trying out wacky new ideas, but the Wii doesn't have a really well-polished full-featured flight sim despite the fact that motion controls kick major ass for flight sims.

Here's hoping all these ideas either pan out or don't detract from the game.
