When you die in a big fireball (explosion) you just see the tower.
It would be very good if you could see and hear the fireball you
are die in Before you see and hear the eternal quiet and tower :)

thats one thing I remember about AW that I really liked.

Every time you exploded/crashed you got a nice red screen with an explosion sound.

I think it would be a quick and easy thing to implement, as well as being a very effective reminder that you died.

Why would you need to be reminded that you just died if it just happend a nano second earlier? ;)

and while we are on the subject of 'things that porbably wont ever happen'

how about: when you shoot off a planes wing, and the pilot ejects, you get to see the ejectee AND his doomed plane falling earthwards instead of the current 'plane dissapears and chute icon pops up'

Howabout when your plane hits the ground, it explodes and leaves a firey mark with smoke. Like in IL-2.

AND

when you eject and you have the pistol with no rounds, you can pick up a bazooka and knock out tanks, or steal stuff.

Ok that last one was BS.

.......................or HTC could just concentrate on getting the game to run smoothly for everyone and leave Quake over in Quakedom. :)

     Or maybe you can land and be beaten about the head and
shoulders by ugly women with brooms for trying to steal stuff;)

What a concept!!!  Lets get the game going right so we don't have more people leaving and scaring newcomers away:confused:

THEN, as a community we can approach HTC on addt'l - A/C, GV's, game inhancments, eye candy, manable postions, direct and indirect roles, premoting the game, growing the community, comradery & sportsmanship................ ..geez what a winner we could have here huh!

I want to drop leaflets from my JU-88 over towns that tell them "Surrender and live" and then the nearest airfield becomes Rook/Bish/Knit.

BTW, when are we going to implement flyable V1's and V2's....GAWD COME ON!
