If you could add any game tool...

Few good ones have been suggested...

1) Heat waves behind jets

2) A few perks at the begining of the month to start with.  Not everyone flies 40 hours a week and trying to earn a 262, Ar234 or Tiger ride can take a very long time

3) Crater damage affecting GVs/Aircraft trying to go thru them

4) Engine Contrails from high alt aircraft

5) Wind/weather at fields.  Be interesting to bring in a damaged buff to a field that has a stiff crosswind or turbulence.

6) Longer smoke effects that do not disapate so quickly.  I.E. engine oil smoke, RATO smoke, etc

7) Require an OK/Confirmation if someone attempts to .wingman you.

I would like to have my bomber guns stay where I leave them. I was just in some lancs in top turret, con is at 11 oclock high I switch to pilot for a second then back to top and the guns are facing rear. This coincides with the 38 diving in and I gotta swing the guns all the way to the front again.

I hate being captured after I bail.  I'd spend perkpoints to 'safely evade capture and return to base'.

I'd like to spend my bomber perkies on V-1 rockets.  After all they are just dumb suicide bombers.

I'd like to be able to control (posess?) a troop after dropping them from my C-47 or M-3.  This would even the odds for the pilot with his .45 defending the map room.

I'd like the gv's to not have such uniform performance.  Maybe have a +-10% modifier on top speed and reload time.  Some gv's had better crews and were better maintained.  Let's have the game reflect this.  Or we could just have "Elete" units that are better trained (i.e. quicker reload times) that cost a few perkies.

Night. More fires, more things that cause fires, fire, fire, fire, and mouse wheel function for damned near anything with a pulldown menu.

The ability to have weather, ANY type of weather.

Just anything but bright sunlight 24/7,  gets a bit old. I know they took out night time due to whines, but come on.

How bout some cloudy overcast days now & then. Some fog at certain time of morn or night. Rain, anything!!!!!!!!!!!

Im listening to the music all the time while flying, and it doesn't interrupt any of the game sounds or vox. Using Winamp 2.78 in background.

Maps could be brought up, zoomed in, show individual target bldgs.

Even have 40s era music until the briefing officer mutes it for the meeting. This would be the place to meet at the start of squad nights, instead of everyone spread all over the place. There just doesnt seem like there is a cozy nook to settle in as it is now.


AirWarrior had a briefing room similiar to what you describe. Didnt have the 40's era music, but that would be a nice touch.

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.
