Non-World War II Setups

LOL, have to tell 262 is one of the easyest planes to fly (at least much better then lot of others).

Just need grab a speed and best figher in AH in your hands.

I personally enjoyed jet fights in Kadesh much. It was really different and interesting IMO.

However most of AH players do not like them............

Returning to the setups.

I think if setup has proper planes like 1948 Setup or others with relevant planeset for the period Soccer War it could be very interesting and playable - of cousre it should be historical.

Have to agree with you there Artik, the 262 in AH is easy to fly.  Hit the throttle and your gone.  No worrying about flame outs or getting the jets to hot as you push the throttle forward.  I just thought I would put in a funny picture up.  Glad you and storch liked it... it happened to me many times.

Okay next, I am probably going to get big time flamed here but I have to say it.  I have been flying the CT for almost 2 years now.. Oct 2005...  For the most part I like all the set ups, they will never be set up perfectly in anyones eyes.  Everyone will have an opinion on what should be what.  When I came into the CT I was under the understanding that it was for historical set ups and I know there is no CT rule book to look at either.  If you wanted "Fantasy" set ups that was something you did in the MA.  

I am sure there are a lot of set ups that people want to do, but don't have the means to make or time to make a map for the CT.  Usually we (325th) want to fly MTO, have to wait till it comes up or just go fly the MA or Squad Ops if they are avaible.  I mean I would love to see the Sicily map come back into rotation, but I highly doubt that... I don't think many people like that map, so I don't see it making an appearence anytime soon.  Would love to have something else other than the Lybia map for the MTO set up, don't get me wrong I love that planeset just wish we could use a different map for it, other than Greece.  I don't want this to sound like a whine, that is not my intention here.  If I could make a map that the CT could use, I would, but don't have the time or the know with all to do it.  I know that things are at a stand still till AH2 comes out.

What I am trying to say is, there are so many other things to do other than fantasy set ups. Honestly Artik hope I would see more of the other set ups before  Korea.  I thought this Sim was built around the ww2 timeline?  I just think there are other things we can bring in instead of the "Fantasy" set ups, although this is a sim and it is all "Fantasy".

I am sorry if this upsets anyone, I just wanted to get my 2 cents out.

While it was a funny occurance ( in as much as it happens to me enuff) I was complimenting the screen shot as a humorous one, not that it was funny because it happened to you.

WWII is what I'm interested in, the CT setups generally have some interest for me because they are generally based on some particular battle in that war. Novelty setups just don't cut it for me and I'll probably fly in the MA for those weeks.

A lot of the map problems could be solved with a Terrain Editor that was just a weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee bit more user fiendly. There are tons of maps I would make that we really need but the AHI TE seems to be impervious to my mental powers.

Actually I wouldn't talk too much about non-historical setups.

1948 has its planeset allmost without subsituation and all relevant fighters are historical.

Early Korean War also historical - yes we have lack of jets but still all early historical sets of prop planes vs prop planes could be done and they not "virtual" setups but historical

And others that could be implemented using current planeset.

Hey! I've been told the TE is perfect .... if players just knew how to read the read me file. Well .... what I been told, at least.

I like IL-2 also stream, and if I suck in here where it is a training wheels sim I shudder to think of how bad I am in IL-2.

I don't care for them myself. 9 out of 10 times if they have a "Non-WWII setup" I would not bother to fly in the CT.

My two cents.
