In IL2/Pacific Fighters, when you're lit up on fire, your vision starts to redden from being wounded more and more. I would like to see that kind of effect in AH2, rather than just the whole pilot wound with blackouts here and there or the whole plane on fire bit.

Never played it, but something like that would be cool.

Maybe have the cockpit fill with smoke so the pilot cant see.

Maybe have the cockpit fill with fire, and if the pilot doesn't bail he dies in a pre-determined time.

Maybe have the metal in the cockpit change colors to red, to simulate it heating up. Then have the controls take a crap, as the wiring harness melts.

Maybe have the pilot automatically bail after a pre-determined time, because he doesn't want to "die".

Its an aquired taste. The FM is a little bit more dumber than AH2, and the AI is no match for human pilots.

But the excitement of sitting on a CV while other planes are taking off from other carriers and heading towards an island in the distance, watching the fog clear and seeing dust kick up from japanese Niki's taking off, really is an amazing immersion factor.

The graphics are great, damage model is awesome, I play it when I'm in the mood when AH2 is slow or when I'm working on my campaigns.
