Evaluation

Falcon 4.0 is a classic flight simulator originally released by MicroProse in 1998. It was re-released on Steam on January 8, 2016 as a legacy title. The only developer activity on Steam since launch was a single maintenance patch on March 15, 2016 — a compatibility fix for modern operating systems and the addition of Steam Trading Cards. There has been no developer communication of any kind since March 15, 2016. No DLC has been released or announced, no roadmap or future content has ever been mentioned, and the store description reads as marketing copy from the original 1998 release. This game was brought to Steam as a finished, historical product with no post-launch content cycle planned or delivered beyond that one compatibility patch.
Evidence
Compatibility patch released to fix a CD-check prompt on modern operating systems, and Steam Trading Cards were added. This is the last and only developer communication on Steam.

The New Benchmark in Flight Sim Technology

The North Koreans have crossed the DMZ. Your F-16 squadron has been called for the strike back...

Only the makers of the acclaimed Falcon 3.0 could launch a new era of flight simulators. Falcon 4.0 breaks the sight-and-sound barrier with its cutting-edge graphics, realism, dynamic campaigns and multiplayer gameplay.

Only MicroProse could push the envelope to offer accurate topographical terrain, detailed radar and weapons simulation, hyper-realistic flight models and stunning visuals.

Features:

  • The realism in Falcon 4.0 is as intense as the vapor streaming over your leading edge flaps when you crank on the Gs.
  • You'll recognize your Dogfight team members by their aircraft markings. Of course the guys on the other teams are ready to paint little bull's-eyes over them.
  • At the heart of Falcon 4.0 is the real-time campaign engine, tested and approved by actual F-16 pilots.
  • Falcon 4.0's detailed, accurate topology and stunning graphics break new ground in the world of modern military flight sims.
  • In Falcon 4.0, you'll discover an enormous range of aircraft and ground units - all in chilling detail.
  • Steam Trading Cards included!
