[quote]Warning: Broken Game!
This game has design/implementation defects that will render this unplayable for many gamers. The game doesn't launch at all, and while the developer expects you to go through a number of convoluted workarounds and downloading third party files (risky!), there's no guarantee any of those will work either, with numerous reports of failed efforts. The developer is fully aware the game is broken but outright REFUSES to fix it... but still wants to scam gamers into paying for it on Steam. This is not okay!.[/quote]
If, by any slim chance, you could get this broken game to run, Echelon: Wind Warriors is an ancient game from 2004. It's a whopping 20 years old at the time of this review. The game lacks support for any modern gaming display resolutions (or widescreen monitors), hasn't been modernised or updated to run smoothly on modern gaming PCs. Despite this lack of modernisation, it carries a pretty high price tag for such an ancient game. This seems to have been put on Steam as a nostalgia gouge, or just a cash grab to try profit from abandonware.
Reviewing SteamDB to check how popular this game was with players reveals a surprise... there's a very healthy spike in player counts for the game. But this only happened once, around the same time that trading cards were applied to the game... so this is just card idlers getting their cards and moving on. Certainly, given the game doesn't work, it's unlikely that player counts are from any source other than card idlers. We must ask how it benefits gamers for there to be so many games like this, with no merit as a serious game, that only generate sales from people idling and selling the trading cards.
Unethically, the developers have left this on the Steam store in an unplayable and broken state. This is harmful to Steam and to gamers, because it takes a share of the marketing space and visibility away from other games. It's polluting Steam and making it harder for gamers to find genuine games and for genuine indie developers who put months or years into making proper games find an audience.
The developer is deliberately and unethically trying to scam gamers into paying them the gamer gouging price of $4 USD for a game they know is broken. Don't give it to them. This is also competing with over 9,000 free games available on Steam, many of them far better than this paid, but broken product.
My brother bought me this as a gift not long after the game came out and I never got around to playing it, so when I saw there was a Steam release, I grabbed it and guiltily gave it a go. Surprisingly good game, and I was sad not to have played it at the time.
However, it's an old game and has not aged particularly well, so just beware that if you're after a space combat simulator this is not going to come up to modern standards.
Was fun the one time i played it, but its now abandonware and won't launch
Echelon: Wind Warriors
Is the sequel to the old classic combat flight simulation Echelon and also in the Sci-Fi Setting. This Time the Earth fights back and confronts the Alien more forcefull.
Again the Player gets a a variety of different fighter planes to choose from and different sorts of Weapons to equip onto them, with a few of the olds known from the previous Game.
Like the previous Game it gives a lot of entertainment for those who love to fight alien fighter planes over huge lands in well programmed combats.
But sadly there is the same huge bad Point to mention that the previous Game have too;
This Game does very likely not work, it does not start or misses any Buttons in the Start-Up-Menue (that can, as far as i was able to find, only be fixed with a patch created by another User who loved this Game enough to provide a fix for this Bug.
But if you dont want to use it, its very likely not able to be played and the Developers have not tried to fix it, sadly)
I am sadly not able to recommend this Game as long as this major Bug is still present (you can read about the *game does not start* bug by searching for it in the Internet)
---------------------------------
My personal Points i give the Game: (Average 4,95 / 10)
7 / 10 Grafics (Uses the same graphics as its previous Game)
6,8 / 10 Gameplay (Again Easy to go into Gameplay, sadly at one Point repetitive)
6 / 10 Quests (Clear Missions, but less immersive impact than it could have had and a little bit less than from the previous game)
0 / 10 Major-Bug (High chance that it will not start without a Fanmade Patch)
As already mentioned, sadly has a major bug why i can not recommend this Game. (If you want to buy it you should be prepared that it might not run without the Patch that one Fan has created)
I have rather mixed feelings about it, the main pleasant emotions consist of memories when I played it once upon a time. This is a very old game, I would say that it is ancient. Now for people who see it for the first time, I think there is no point in buying it and trying to love it.
Requires workarounds and patches made by the community to launch, stay away from it.
In its time this game was one of the funnest flight games around. Now it needs a patch to launch single player. Just Just leave your memories of this great game as it is, memories of the past.
One of the best combat flight simulators, which, suprisingly, was greatly inspired by the MechWarrior series. After a bit of registry tweaking, runs without problems in FullHD on modern hardware and Win10. This game provides quite unique and enjoyable experience and I can't even recall something similar in the genre.
Not a perfect game, far from it, it's actually pretty bad, but it has it's upsides, it has some pretty fun parts, especially if you have some sort of nostalgic connection to it
Last mission sucks though, most of it is spent waiting for some tanks to make their way from one side of a valley to the other to destroy some cannons while you just fly around in circles on auto pilot, and then when that's done after, I shit you not, 45 minutes (and you can't speed it up either, you're flying over a destroyed enemy base and the onboard computer says "Attention Enemy Contact" every time you try to speed shit up)
Then your commander says "congratulations we've captured the enemy base" in an almost sarcastic tone, and then it just ends with a journal entry saying "Bleh I have to attend a victory parade while everyone's getting drunk", no cutscene, not even credits, I was looking for a way to continue for a while before I realized it says "campaign completed successfuly" near the name of the campaign in the game select menu
If you really wanna experience it, wait until there's a discount, for less than a dollar it's really worth it, there's surprisingly alot of missions
Love this game, haven't played it in ages till I saw it on steam some time ago, bought it and boy does it bring back memories.
PITA to get to work, but thankfully many workarounds/guides on steam to get it going.
Let's be honest it is and older game, can't expect it to work on new OS right of the bat.
Controls take some getting used to, but give it time and you might fall in love with it.
Campaign missions are sometimes a bit quirky, if you seem to be stuck, nothing to do, might have to restart mission.
Overall a good game. One of may favourite oldies.
The modern gaming industry develops flight simulators with a new graphic component that pleases the eye of virtual pilots, they are delighted with the mechanics of aircraft control, somewhere there is, perhaps, an exciting plot ...
But no flight simulator can compare with this masterpiece, in which all of the above was developed back in 2004.
Despite all this, this game is absolutely unique, aircraft of completely different characteristics, from fighters to attack aircraft, interceptors and even a cargo ship.
I recommend it to fans of sci-fi, hardcore games, and just fans of dogfight.

TLDR: Broken. Opens a dos-like prompt with parameter incorrect error message then it closes and never launches.
If you are having problems starting the game, follow the steps in the Discussion topic "Steps I've used to fix the English version" by [DB] RXDimA
I can't comment on the game play, but needed to advertise the best fix for starting the game.
I bought this game, and have spent the most 'gameplay' hours trying to get it to work.
Finally the COMMUNITY helped me out guiding me through REGEDIT.
No thanks to MADia Entertainment, who should be banned from STEAM for not living up to the expected CUSTOMER SUPPORT.
So I would check the NOT INTERESTED BOX, and go find other nice games with the same theme.
A very good game and have a real nice feel to the flight and
combat, better than I seen in many spacecombat games like
Starconflict and Elite dangerous.
EXCEPT one thing: It won´t start, I bought it on steam and
installed it, I strongly recommend you get a " FREE " version
of this game to see if it´s possible to run.
Update: There are tips in the steam forum how to get it to work.
It works then, but pain in the butt to configure.
An awesome classic. Shame gamespy is dead.
It is as old as great. I enjoyed the gameplay many years ago, I enjoy it now. One of the most interesting features - the dialogs.
By the way, it launched on Windows 7 64x without any problems
There I want to tell a lot about this great game.
Basically this is standalone addon for original Echelon game a futurstic action/VTOL-simulation set in same universe and period but from another character perspective. The game features decent flight model which makes you feel of flight and inertion, advanced damage model, a lot of detailed ground, naval and air units and buildings with their own damage models. There many types of aicrafts and weapons to choose. The game is unique by being realistic at some point Sci-Fi vtol sim. The game locations is large, the whole continent is featured here.
The story/campaign is good, long and even non linear at some places, the fully and nicely voiced dialogues (yeah with yelling commander etc.) also.
The graphics of original Echelon (2001) was next gen for it's time, but in WindWarriors not really much changes.
Game mechanics have a lot similarities to MechWarrior series just you control the aircraft there.
Sadly this game didn't got any sequels (forget about operation matriarchy) so the story is incomplete due publishers counted this type of games as not profitable.
There is campaign coop and nice multiplayer with gamemodes involving teamwork and just fun deathmach, the bad thing it was using Gamespy. (the russian comminity still run server, but it reqiure custom patches) Unlike most of harcore sim games this is easy to learn but hard to master, in multiplayer (really!). There more action than fight with controls of your machine.
I would recommend this game if you like open locations, Sci-Fi VTOL, atmoshpere (in both meanings, game take place only on planet) some hard missions to challenge your skills, epic and dynamic battles and unexpected turns of a plot.
I bought this because it's a classic that I spent a lot of time on when I was younger. It's a fun flight sim with a lot of missions to do.
- Some people might not be able to run this game properly on modern machines, but that's fixable with a little bit of registry editing, setting the correct settings (Like choosing Hardware TnL in options app), and downloading some extra missing files (link in comments).
- I highly recommend setting the control method to "E-mouse", with inverted Y-axis (Makes it behave like an FPS).
If anybody has any questions about how to get this game running, comment on my review your questions, and I might be able to help you with it. I'm running this on Windows 8.1, with x8 Anti aliasing at 1280x720@60 FPS and all settings maxed (Trying to figure out how to get 1080p, at the moment).
TL;DR If you ignore the outdated visuals and the hassle to get it properly set up the first time, this would be a fun flight sim for you.
Edit: Released an app that fixes issues with the game. http://steamcommunity.com/app/311100/discussions/0/1471966894873092057/
DO NOT BUY THIS GAME
