Yah I just don't want it to turn into WB. Where they developed planes for 2 years and never added any vehicles or enhanced the mission system.

But I like airplanes!  I admit to having a fondness for the ocassion submerssival, but gennerally I enjoy watching others trapped in a flaming aircraft, and unable to bail because the death spiral it too tight.

I must be the only one that wants more planes.

WWII Movies showed where the Allieds ahd to attack factories/research centers built into  mountains.

SOOO,
1 Locate Villages, factories, supply depots
  in foothills, mountains.
   a.This allows close proximity to bases
   b.gives AA vehicles some protection advantage
   c.Hard AS HELL to Bomb from UBBER ALT.
     when inside mountain.
   d. Would give new deminsion to FLYING up
      THOSE VALLEYS with a couple 1000#
      eggs you gotta throw at angle to hit

2.Allow sides to build landing strips for ops. to get vehicles closer to target.

Just an Idea.

I never said adding new planes is a bad thing. What I said was the time taken to create new planes probably could be better spent in developing a more involved/unique/interesting mission system.
I'm just hoping that it doesn't turn into a game like WB where the planes change but the mission system stays the same. Something that gets me into the game and kind of makes me want to stay. i.e. give me:

(if I succeed)
--------------
- glory.. look at that plane burn!
- a feeling of accomplishment, not the "oh look the guy I just shot down is taking off for the 10th time within 60 secs... ugh!"
- rewards.. yes I am the colonel and yes I want to launch a 20 plane strike against field # !  

(if I fail)
-----------
- shame.. look at my plane burn  
- a feeling that I want to accomplish something, not the "hehehe I'll really piss off those guys attacking the field.. see how fast I can takeoff when being immediately shot down.. uhm shouldn't I be penalized? at least have to takeoff from another field ?"
- sigh.. I wish I could plan a mission that the automated mission generator would assign to people, field # sure looks ready to attack who is our stupid general anyways?!

I would like to see more game depth...IN Falcon 4.0 the war went on as you where playing it...i dont see any thing wrong with maybe puting computer drone tanks and such. That way you would have to seek out and destroy, This can never have to much depth because you can get a big coordinated attack and some squad or parts of it end up not showing up. It happended all the time in AW3.
Even computer controled  Eggers and fighter escorts..I dont know how hard it would be and how bad that would slow down the game. But i do know its just one big furball all the time, you dont ever get any congrates when you take the hole map, it just resets it slef. This brings up one more thang if the sides get uneven you could add more computer players..I know there not the smartis thing in the world but it would keep you busy while the real guys are attacking a base. I still think it would be good to just have Two sides rather than Three, numbers would be better. It splits people up to much.
