HoloByte had acquired MicroProse in 1993, and started using that name for all of its titles in 1996. After MicroProse was purchased by, official development ended.

In 2000, a allowed continued development of the game by members of the gaming community, including and new campaigns. Many of these additions were collected by Lead Pursuit, which arranged an official license of the original code base from the owner; these were published as in 2005. Spanning well over a decade, the Falcon 4.0 series is one of the longest running game series using the same code base in PC history. Falcon 4.0 is a rare example of a taking over a game, enhancing it, maintaining code configuration, and having it re-released as a commercial product several years after its original publication.

Game pes 2008 highly compressed 10mb. Previous versions of the game’s online mode were plagued with lag, teleporting players and warping. The player will also be able to move several players at once into any opening, resulting in a need for more strategic thinking. • AI has been improved thanks to Teamvision 2.0. • There will be an enhanced online experience; a new development team is solely dedicated to improving online play and other aspects such as downloadable content. Now midfielders and defenders will work together to cut out the attack more effectively.

The rest of the game plays out in response to the player's actions, potentially involving China and Russia. Japan has an airbase, but plays no role in the conflict itself. Because of the game's story content, which involves war in the, it was banned in South Korea until 2003. Falcon 4.0's gameplay parallels actual combat operations. First, over 30 scenarios acquaint the player with F-16 maneuvering, operation, and various protocols. After training, the player may start the primary gameplay mode in the campaign, which simulates participation in a modern war.

Alternatively s/he may engage in mode which provides an individual air engagement without any continuous context, or create what are effectively miniature campaigns, known as 'Tactical Engagements'. The results of the player's performance while using Falcon 4.0 are used to generate a 'logbook'. This contains details such as: flight hours, air-to-air and air-to-ground kills, decorations, a name and photo, and the current rank of the player. Good performance (such as eliminating large numbers of enemy ground units, or surviving a difficult engagement) during a mission may lead to the award of a decoration or promotion; conversely, poor performance (destroying friendly targets or ejecting from the aircraft for no good reason) can lead to demotion or court-martial. Campaign gameplay has two primary stages, briefings and missions.

The briefing section is used to handle the planning of and packages (a number a flights grouped together for mutual support in obtaining a military objective), assignment of steerpoints for determining the route of a given flight, and the weapons loadout used by the aircraft. It is also possible to issue instructions to each ground unit manually, overriding the AI's handling of the war. As is the situation for real life pilots, it is of the utmost importance that the player examines closely all of the data presented here to perform well during the mission, in order to best formulate a plan of action when actually flying the jet. Failing to note the location and abilities of enemy sites or aircraft and account for methods of defeating these will almost certainly result in a short flight.

The mission section of the simulator encompasses the actual mechanics of flying the aircraft, radar and weapons operation, threat evaluation, radio communications and navigation. Everything is done in such a manner as to model the aircraft in use as closely as possible, while on the highest realism settings. The initial release of the software came with three pre-set scenarios for the player to use in campaign mode. 'Tiger Spirit' depicted a war where and Allied forces had repelled the initial assault and moved onto the offensive.

'Rolling Fire' depicted a closely matched situation where DPRK forces had overrun the and made small gains, while 'Iron Fortress' simulated a scenario where the North had overwhelmed the South and pushed it back to its last line of defense. Unlike its static counterpart, a dynamic campaign has no set game path.
