Easy to do -- can use media player and play CD in background. If your processor and connection up to it -- can even use streaming audio over web.

This one too. It's a major pain as is, and ends up being a disadvantage esp against multiple cons -- switching guns can be counterproductive.













And, DadDog -- great thread!!   :aok

AWind mentioned something, not necessarily a game tool though.
After your flight, have the oppertunity to do a walk around and check out the damage. If you rtb 100% healthy no point to it but it'd be nice to see what the crate looks like after a nasty one.

How about the option of having a guy in a squad be able to temporarily transfer to check out another squad. He could return to his after a short  limited time and not loose any perks/points.
Like a Squad Exchange program.

-Mission Briefing Room a-la Air Warrior 3

(people who joined mission went to a room with a map, mission creator had a mute all option so he could brief others in the mission, players could zoom in on map to see their assignments).

- Ability to select how many tracers per ammo round and in which guns the tracers are loaded. Id load tracers only in 2 guns on my 38... at 10 and at 20 rnds so that when i shoot the tracers still show where my shots go but it doesnt block my view)

- Longer range for bullet ammo. Currently they seem to dissapear at d1.5 .. imo the game should 'poof' the bullets a d3.0 . Many times in history channel you see planes strafing ground targets from 2 or 3000 ft ... in AH you have to get so close that you really can only get 1 pass at 1 object before you have to pull up or hit the ground.

- For Fun: Fantasy loadout generator for special events arena.

For example, allow event creators to arm planes with different weapon loadouts. Say, put 10 .303's on the nose of a P-38 with 5000rnds of ammo. Or load a B26 with 1 panzer/tiger main gun.

The plane would fly just like it would with normal loadout, but the ammo type the planes fire and the ammo loadout is changed.  And since its a special events arena theres little chance of abuse (aka a n1k with 1000 rnds of 30mm APHE :P )

A "watch for" on roster -- like wingman command, but instead sends a message when a particular buddy logs on

I'd like the 'Notify me when a new Cadet enters the arena' thing fixed.

How about perks for resupplying friendly GVs and negative perks if they fall into enemy hands.

I gave this considerable though and I've finally come up with something.

A releif tube.

For when you've hit that tiger or other GV dead on  with everything from 1,000 pounders to rockets to cannon round and it just keeps plinking away.

Then you could just pee on em out of disgust before RTBing

Slimpikin came up with this one.

For every fighter hanger you kill, a runway spawn dies.  Kill all the hangers, all the spawns are off.


Perk the buff boxes, make um pay for extra planes.
