I just like the game! its easy to learn and ya don't have to be a rocket wot sit to learn and just ♥♥♥♥♥♥ enjoy a game for a change, its very well laid out and fun fun fun! try the fekkin game!
It looks great, Helicopter is as slow as a kite and cant fly very high wtf??, Game is too short, no updates for ages.
After setting up your HOTAS and starting a flight, it crashes. Reliably.
good game. would love these guys to do a combat heli sim
Локация сделана максимально лениво. Пустая, текстуры друг на друге, деревья никакущие, другой растительности нет, постройки словно выдернуты из бесплатных наборов и не к месту, что-то висит в воздухе... Графика в целом здесь ПЛОХАЯ. Что текстуры, что объекты, что свет, тени... ПЛОХАЯ. Изучать карту не хочется, да и совершенно нечего, к сожалению, потому что ничего и нет... НО что ещё хуже, так это сам ВЕРТОЛЁТ. Почему он такой медленный? Сразу же стал играть на "эксперт" вместо аркадного режима, но о чём вообще речь, если его элементарно даже нельзя перевернуть в полёте? Разбиться реально сложно. А Я ХОТЕЛ РАЗБИТЬСЯ! Я ПЫТАЛСЯ! Только если рычаг в упор вывернуть, убрать руки и закрыть глаза, пройдёт много времени и ты столкнёшься с чем-нибудь. В общем если не тупить, разбиться здесь это нереальная задача. Физика? Нет здесь физики. Вертолёт не трясёт, ветер отсутствует... И ОН МЕДЛЕННО ЛЕТИТ. В других играх пешком бегаешь быстрее, чем здесь ЛЕТИШЬ, хотя рычаг высоты на максимуме, нос тоже вниз... Я падать вперёд должен бы с сумасшедшей скоростью, но нет! Вертолёт у нас всего один. Все настройки как-то для галочки... В общем очень сырая, очень пустая поделка. Как игра это плохо. Как симулятор это смешно. Даже музыки нет никакой... А ведь скучно лететь 5 км/ч по кривым и багованным пустырям, без челленджа. Не советую даже по скидке. Другой игры про вертолёты пока не нашёл... Но в Ultrawings 2 достаточно неплохо исполнен был, в сравнении, хотя и тоже не симулятор.

It's like a civilian version of VR-VTOL: as if you are a civilian pilot for a energy company. The flight model is instinctive and slightly simplified to be forgiving. For example, lowering the collective at 6000 ft will make the helicopter slow the airspeed and descend. There are a few air-work jobs to do such as delivering supplies to an oil rig, and helping a local farmer find some lost cows. The various missions are activated by selecting a sling load or a flare marker. All missions are relaxing because there are no time limits (although you must manage the fuel). A great fun-filled afternoon of fun flying. Until... The other map is a desert military base and you are the sole and only pilot tasked with defending it from time-based missions against tanks. Armed with a 7.62mm gun. The odd foibles with trigger=hold-the-stick versus trigger=fire become a frustrating mess. War. War never changes. Stay on the civilian side of this game and enjoy the ride. Well worth the cost of a movie ticket.
Bonjour. Durée de vie assez courte, graphiques un peu justes, mais bonnes sensations de pilotage.
I like the program and think it is one of the most realistic to flying as I have seen; however, I have a few suggestions before I would invest further into the program. 1. Have a way to exit the program from the menu, back into steam. 2. Get rid of the Extra Loud Crash sound when a task is completed. It is annoying. A mild TaDa would be nicer, instead of scarring the 5hit out of people. 3. Maybe add some refueling areas. Or the option to take on fuel at heliports for a full return flight home. 4. Add an AutoRotation feature to the helicopter not just drop out of the sky when fuel is exhausted. 5. With number 4, allow or make a task to practice AutoRotations with the disclaimer that actual autorotations differ in each helicopter type. You get the idea.
Helicopter Simulator VR 2021 - Rescue Missions is a focused virtual reality flight simulator that prioritizes hands-on immersion and procedural realism over spectacle or scale. Developed and published by Helicopter Simulator, the game places players directly into the cockpit of a functional rescue helicopter and asks them to learn, operate, and master its systems through a series of practical, mission-driven scenarios. Rather than simplifying flight into arcade-style controls, the experience leans heavily into authenticity, making it clear from the outset that this is a simulator designed for players who enjoy learning complex systems and executing precise maneuvers in a VR environment. The heart of the experience lies in cockpit interaction. Every flight begins with a proper startup procedure that mirrors real-world helicopter operation, requiring players to engage batteries, manage fuel flow, monitor instruments, and bring the engine and rotors up to operational levels in the correct order. In VR, these actions feel deliberate and physical, as players reach out with motion controllers to flip switches, adjust dials, and grasp flight controls. This tactile interaction creates a strong sense of presence, turning even routine procedures into satisfying rituals that reinforce the feeling of being an actual pilot rather than a passive operator. Once airborne, the simulator demands constant attention to helicopter-specific flight dynamics. Managing lift, torque, and stability requires subtle control inputs, particularly during takeoff, hovering, and landing phases. Wind, altitude, and weather conditions can significantly affect handling, forcing players to anticipate and compensate rather than react impulsively. These mechanics create a rewarding learning curve: early flights may feel tense and unstable, but with practice, smoother landings and controlled approaches become deeply gratifying achievements. Missions provide structure and purpose to the flying. Players are tasked with a range of rescue and utility operations, including mountain evacuations, passenger transport, cargo delivery, infrastructure inspection, and medical emergencies. Many of these missions require precision hovering, careful navigation through tight terrain, and controlled descents onto uneven landing zones. The stakes feel appropriately high without becoming punitive, as mistakes often lead to mission failure rather than instant crashes, encouraging learning through repetition rather than frustration. The environments, while not massive, are thoughtfully designed to support these scenarios. Alpine regions, desert landscapes, and industrial sites such as oil rigs and wind farms offer varied challenges and visual contrast. Dynamic elements like moving cable cars, vehicles, and changing weather conditions add life to the world and prevent missions from feeling static. Although the overall playable area is relatively compact compared to large-scale flight simulators, it is dense enough to support meaningful mission variety without overwhelming performance or clarity in VR. Visually, the game favors functional realism over photorealistic ambition. The helicopter cockpit is detailed and readable, ensuring instruments are clear and usable in VR, while the surrounding terrain provides sufficient detail to convey altitude, distance, and landing hazards. Performance stability is particularly important in VR, and the game generally maintains a smooth experience, which is essential for comfort during longer flight sessions. Accessibility options help broaden the appeal without undermining the simulator’s core identity. Adjustable difficulty settings, simplified control modes, and optional tutorials allow newcomers to ease into helicopter flight without requiring prior aviation knowledge. At the same time, players seeking a more authentic experience can disable assists and rely entirely on manual control, making the simulator flexible enough to accommodate different skill levels and playstyles. Longevity comes from mastery rather than content volume. There is no narrative campaign or expansive progression system; instead, the satisfaction lies in improving piloting skills, completing missions more efficiently, and gaining confidence in challenging conditions. Free flight mode supports this philosophy by giving players space to practice landings, experiment with weather settings, or simply enjoy flying without objectives. There are limitations worth noting. Players without VR hardware cannot access the experience, and those looking for a more casual or arcade-oriented helicopter game may find the controls demanding. Mission variety, while solid, could benefit from additional scenarios or expanded maps to further extend replay value. Still, these constraints stem from the game’s deliberate focus rather than oversight. Overall, Helicopter Simulator VR 2021 – Rescue Missions succeeds as a concentrated and immersive flight simulation tailored specifically for virtual reality. Its emphasis on realistic procedures, tactile cockpit interaction, and skill-based flying delivers a compelling experience for enthusiasts who appreciate methodical gameplay and mechanical authenticity. While it does not aim to be a massive, all-encompassing aviation simulator, it excels within its niche, offering a rewarding and memorable VR experience for players willing to learn the art of helicopter flight. Rating: 7/10
