Before posting another "I think AH needs the X aircraft" post, just spend about 20sec using that little thing called a search function. It will save you lots of grief and flaming.

Thank you

Also Skuzzy might want to either sticky this or make one up, please for the love of all that holy and mentally balanced.

You're pissing up rope, Mech. I wish you the best of luck in this endeavor.

I know, maybe I should only read the boards once a month

You also are not supposed to punt old topics... (Sometimes you get rule #13's and topic gets locked)

The solution is real easy...
Start a new forum, 1 thread for each new plane/variant requested.
To see what's been requested simply look in the forum and add your own comment/vote/abuse as required.

Now that is a good idea, maybe just sticky each aircraft. Have to pm skuzzy to ask for a new thread?

Yeh - I reckon.
That way we KNOW they know what we want (or talk about anyway).
And we know they know we know they know what we want...

Is reading every thread required?

Is this where I rant about how the B-29 is your new god and that it would make the game so much better, especially with it's Uber-l33t Nooke!!!!!111111

If you don't read every thread, you'll miss some of the comedic highlights of this board. Furball's MSPaint competition comes to mind immediately. Some true gems were lost in that thread.

And yes, we need a B29 Stardestroyer. That would pwn.

I disagree. I think that new people coming in and constantly asking for the same aircraft/vehicles shows Hitech that these are not just passing phases; these are things that many people coming into the game continuously notice are missing. If you can't ignore the weekly "IWANTNOOK" thread then it would appear to me that you have an anger issue.

Oh, by the way, I think the game would greatly benefit from introducing the P-39, the B-25, the P-61 and a HEAVILY perked B-29 (without nookie and only available from rear bases).

GAAAAHHHHH!!!

We've all heard these arguments over and over and over before.

Which is why we really need a separate forum - a special place for these requests.

On top of the planes, there's vehicles too. How many are there? And for the wet guys - the boats/ships are really under represented (E-boats, MTBs, Jap carriers etc. etc.).

Just how many different types of planes/vehicles/ships can AH support anyway?

Unfortunately the search function won't let you search for 3 letter terms, like B29 or B-29 (it removes the -). So much for that

Yeah, pretty good at setting themselves up for failure that way. So many planes designated by three alphanumeric descriptor.... and can't be searched for.
