Blazing Angels 2 Secret Missions-PROCYON
It’s not that long from the release of Blazing Angels, a WW2 flight simulator, and we chave a chance to play the second version of this game already. Released by noone smaller than Ubisoft, Blazing Angels 2 Secret Missions offers a great chance to feel the fear the pilots have in cockpit. The graphic part is stunning and there are some very original features as well. The only problem may be the size of this game, which grows up to four gigabytes. The game has surprisingly no protection at all.
In this game, you are the leader of Operation Wildcard, an undercover and elite squad of pilots secretly created by the American government. Your mission is to sabotage and destroy the Third Reich’s evil plans to create a weapon of mass destruction. During this mission you and your team discover that the bad guys also have an elite team of their own. In an attempt to disarm the enemy, you engage in dramatic and movie-like spy missions in some of the world’s most exotic locations using experimental weapons and flying never-before-seen prototype aircraft.
Game features:
- Over-The-Top Action – Engage in 18 high-stakes missions where you will bomb bridges, steal secret weapons, destroy Zeppelins and more.
- Fly Never Before Seen Aircraft – Pilot over 50 authentic planes and prototypes including the Gotha Go 229, DH Vampire F Mk 1, Me-163 “Komet”, Meteor and many more.
- Unusual Experimental Weapons Get the advantage in combat by using experimental WWII weapons including High Velocity Cannons and TV-Guided missiles.
- Exotic WWII Setting – Engage in epic battles in some of the world’s most captivating environments such as Cairo, the Himalayas, Moscow’s Red Square, Rome’s San Pietro’s Cathedral, the Swiss Alps and more.
- Next-Gen Graphics – Experience improved depth of field, jaw-dropping cinematographic lightening and outstanding sound effects.
- Fast Paced Multiplayer Action – Challenge up to 16 players in free-for-all, co-op and squad-based missions, including the all new Epic Battle and Capture the Flag modes.
- Epic Boss Battles – For example, go up against a giant German Zeppelin over the pyramids of Cairo. Take out its nine gun turrets while you expose its vulnerable underbelly.

Since there is no protection in this game, this may be the only release available unless someone come with a keygen and his own rip.
I can wait to play it.
I saw the trailer for the game on xbox - didn’t look any good. But im not that much into flying games - so try it out, guys.
XP Only ?!?!
so there is no keygen?? …yet??
btw it’s more like a flight-sim or arcade shooter??
Damn! How many game releases have there been lately…
They are just so freaking big for my crappy 512 connection (Australia).
12gig for stranglehold… BAH! Probably good, but even with my new graphics card I can’t be fucked downloading any games.
Don’t know if I will even bother to get Crysis… I want it like hell, but after Bioshock I re-realized how boring games can be. Even though Bioshock is good, I personaly don’t have the attention for its theme etc.
Blazing angels… God I wish I had a 1500mbit connection with unlimited bandwidth.
Assassins Creed, Crysis, Empire Earth 3, Universe at War and a few mmorpg should be worth it though.
is this any good? any1 tried yet?
Go to the ubisoft site, then goto the games’ site and checkout the features! You can create (colour and put decals on) your own paper warplanes! Just print and fold et voila! Pretty neat! lol
At least this is playable on my computer and takes up less space than Stranghold and less RAM 2GB for stranghold is over the top. Does anyone know the specs for a xbox 360 compared to a PC
is there a demo? dont really want to dl 4gb
XP only, does that mean that this game does not even run on Windows Vista? :S
HAHA… XP ONLY!!!!!
Wish we saw more games like that… it’d really fuck Vista over
“Your mission is to sabotage and destroy the Third Reich’s evil plans to create a weapon of mass destruction.”
Until we get there and find out there really aren’t any weapons of mass destruction. It was all a scheme to get the Nazi Oil.
This is pure arcade flying…
Most of the planes are experimental
#sam
good one =]
#wickido
just sweet =]
i wish i could use it when i was a kid, but now,
…now i think i’ll play like a kid with printed warped-paper plane, desert-camo, gerrie, falcon
Maybe it’s just my system, but the game does not works
. “Can not initialize 3D engine” - does anyone else gets this error msg? My config is good enough for sure (2GB RAM, 8800GTS, C2D 3GHz, Win XP SP2), I have all newest drivers, other games works fine, so I don’t know what’s wrong… Hint anybody?
I played the Demo on xb360. Think Ace Combat with WWII planes.Very arcade feel. Personally, I thought it was kind of fun but not enough to buy. Thank god I don’t have to buy it!

You on vista, apparently it is XP only.
If not then get a patch for the game.
All you pubescent pimple faced horny pillow humpers who are allergic to sunlight and socializing, if you really wanna play games, then play it on “TinyXP_Platinum_Edition_2″
http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3716356/Windows_TinyXP_Platinum_Edition_2_-_eXPerience
put it straight on your system, or make a partition and put it there (it’s not like rocket science, just google up “dual boot” if you still wanna keep what ever other OS you are using)
TinyXP_Platinum_Edition_2 is made solely for gaming and comes with all kinds of applications (pre installed and choose able)
there is also another gaming version called “MicroXP” which is supposed to be faster, also made by eXPerience, but I couldn’t get my games to run on it or get an internet connection.
anyway “TinyXP_Platinum_Edition_2″ is so seriously blistering fast and stable, I ‘ve heard from many people (who have older PCs) that were able to play a lot of the new games on it which didn’t run before under their normal windowsXP!
but really rlslog has a great layout and all, but they really post so much crap here, I mean that Britney underwear less story and all, c’mon…
rlslog you are providing good links to games torrents ok, but do a little better and teach us noobs of some of the awesome stuff out there too, I came across TinyXP_Platinum_Edition_2 by chance on piratebay, you can go there and check out other torrents from user “eXPerience33″ too:

enjoy
@15:
Same issue here, not that I have anything close to top of the line specs. I am no gamer but thought I’d just give this a try … oh well
(P4 3.2GHz, ATI 9700, WinXP SP2)
it’s quite simple really
run it in compatibility mode for XP with you vista op systm
hey presto
the game works
Now this looks like a nice flight game and well within the capabilities of my limited system.
not working
This game is no sound，relly?
For everyone with the “Can not initialize 3D engine”: Try to set your desktop to a resolution that is supported by the game e.g. 1024*768. Since the game has no setup program it takes the desktop resolution. So if you have a widescreen you might run your desktop in a resolution that the game does not support
@ 420
“It comes straight from Microsoft”
And you find that reassuring? :p
Works fine, few glitches….using my Sidewinder 2 Force Feedback Flight stick renders the game without sound….unplug the stick and sound reappears. Freaky…game itself is decent, they “break you in” slowly, first doing an air show and learning the maneuvers, then throwing ya deeper into combat. Lots of planes represented, all sorts of experimental craft…and if the Xbox Live version is any indication, there are other planes out there to be had (Best Buy gives you a limited edition download, few other retailers too)….anyways, its very possible that there will be more planes added in future patches.
Works in Vista x64 XP compatibility mode, but again, sometimes the sound is non existed or just in stereo. Doesn’t kill the game, just makes it less enjoyable, imo.
Still, a damn good release. Just in need of a patch for compatibility issues atm.
If anyone has this yet, can they tell me if it has the same bad mouse controls from Orig Blazing Angels. ie. a dead zone on the mouse control, very bad, have to keep scrolling the mouse forever to keep turning the plane.
I am getting the sound problem as well
This game reminds me of another disaster: Secret Weapons Over Normandy.
Hi….First off 420 has some serious issues:D
I bought original XP but still using so called “s00b” version.
Anyway…about the game. I have been downloading games for long time and I always promised to myself when a good game comes by I will buy it. So I am big fan of flight games and then came BLAZING ANGELS 2. So I bought it. WHAT A miserable way to waist your money! If I would known better I would have rather given that money to a bum for a booze. So whats my problem?
1. After installing the game I tried to run it and I got the error: “Can not initialize 3D Engine”
So I googeld it and outcome was quite disturbing. a) different forums suggested that I don’t have good enough PC.
Well It’s a laptop but it’s just not A laptop:D It’s Clevo m570ru maxed out (T7700 2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo Santa Rosa platform, 2Ghx 800Mhz ram, 160G 7200Rpm hard drive and 7950Gtx 512 Video card, screen is Hi res 1920×1200) So if thats not enough then what a F is?
b) So finally I found information about the resolution. I lowered it to 1024 x Something and tried again. This time game started ok but this was pretty much end of my luck. I gave one spin with the default settings but as the control were not how I wanted them to be and graphics settings were below anything too I decided to play around in options menu. First I changed the resolution. Applied. Crash. Started the game again. Tried to change brightness. Applied. Crash. Again. This time tried to change AA. Applied. Crash. Do I have to continue? I guess not.
So I uninstalled the game and thats it. I am not going to throw it away jet as I am hoping that Ubisoft will come to their senses and will release a patch witch will fix those issues.
Until this time comes I seriously recommend to stay away from this game and save your nerves.
Thank you
@K-3
I was …. up for first one. This time I was smarter and test it O:)
Same problems with joystick as in first one. They even didn’t bothered to change Registry names just added 2 in reg entry.
Test Conclusion: If want joystick forget it (except few one that maybe work as they worked in first one after patch). I can if I can make same registry patch to make it sort playable on joystick even I do not think it is worth any affort.
If UBI give few extra bucks to devs and let them to read Windows SDK all that will be Ok.
As developer who made several HID (Joysticks, remotes, and RAW command) support engines/plugins and drivers for Custom and commercial hardware/software I know how easy it is to fix that up.
Than you all
Well, it’s more reassuring than someone taking that and integrating their own “crap” into it, do you not agree? As much as people like to bitch about Microsoft, they still use their products and they know it. BTW, I’m curious, what operating system are you running?
You can’t get a simple game to run and yet I’m the one with “issues”
By the way, what’s a “s00b” version? I don’t think I’ve heard of that one before.
Anyway, yes I do admit that I had a little too much time to waste that day, but I hate assholes. When some loser starts out his post by saying:
and on top of that posts it in at least 3 different threads, someone has to step in and save the n00bs from his bullshit, right?
BTW, there’s not a doubt in my mind that he was describing himself.
@420
Oh sorry, you know what…I actually didn’t notice this:P -
“All you pubescent pimple faced horny pillow humpers who are allergic to sunlight and socializing, if you really wanna play games, then play it on “TinyXP_Platinum_Edition_2″
It’s true that this can come only from asshole:D
Anyway…everybody have their own preferences. What ever makes us happy, isn’t it?:)
But anyway…420 have you tried Blazing Angels 2? Maybe there is something I missed?
How the hell can I get my joystick to work?! Can anybody please help me…?
Works fine on Vista. Did not use any patches or compatibility modes. Not sure why it is marked as XP only.
yo guys any trainers outhere?
