Chat stuck open

Great game aside from a new bug I’m experiencing where the keyboard on my phone won’t close after I type in the chat.

I'll update once fixed

People are griefing the screen with text can you please fix it's been going on for years and we payed for these games

Please update!

This is an amazing Vietnam war aviation sim with unique helicopters such as the H-19 & H-34. Please update this great sim. If we could get an update I would certainly award 5 stars. Thanks!

Best mobile flight sim yet!

Okay so there is a few missing planes, that were in the old versions. Like the T26 and what ever that other plane was. And APC US trucks and infantry. Also the old versions are kind of better. Otherwise I will be waiting for bug fixes and gunship 4! Also so I always wished we could fly the B52. Okay can we have the old missions back like the helicopter one where you have to transport US marines. And readd the spooky. October 11, 2024. Over 10 years after gunship 1, 2, and 3 came out. Phillip, I know you will never read this. But you did amazing. On all your games. Like seriously, I know gunship 3 will soon be unplayable due to hardware updates. This will always be my go to. I just wish we could try the older versions. See the old missions. That most of us forgot about. There is still a community in this game. And even a minor patch, we will support you through it. It’s been an amazing 12 years.You may not be perfect, but you’re real good. Like really, maybe even the best. See you in the skies of gunship 4.

Other: Is there anyway I can access the older versions? Also, I can tell gunship 3 was an idea of a game you wanted to play. So you made it, and I respect you for that.

Best Vietnam Era Combat Sim!

***Important Note*** This game has not been updated for 7 years and is no longer seeing support as Phanotek, the developer, is putting all his time into the upcoming “Gulf War” PC game. Not sure if a mobile version is coming out.

I have been playing PHNTK games since Gunship II which never got updated past one of the first renditions.

This game was awesome from the start and it is still very fun to play and has a very active multiplayer base. There are some things that need to be fixed. The UH-1, Cobra, and the OH-6 all have unrealistic fuel range. It drains wayyyy to fast compared to the chinook. Also the F-4 cannot dogfight the MiG-21 worth at all which is “somewhat” realistic. A little trick for players is that if you encounter an AI MiG-21, just dive for the ground and pull out low, the MiG will disengage and not follow allowing you to shoot it down. The flight characteristics of the game are very good and I love the integration across all the versions.
