yea thats what I was sorta thinking.


Not sure about Vietnam though. Instead of vulching dweebs, dweebs with air to air missles.

Maybe, but we wont be in wirbys on the ground. Bring on the sam sites and big time AAA!! yeee haw!!!

 Wasnt a whole lot of gv action in vietnam, i mean there was, but.....

 mig 15's, 17's, 21's, 105's, f4's, a7's, a8's, spads....even a new role of rescue, lets being in the choppers too, would be different and interesting to be sure. oh and last but not least, for all you buff pukes that like the heavys and really wanna gun stuff up, c-130 gunships(think they were 130's) . Lets roll with some b52's for serious hi alt runs. Thuds and phantoms setup for the "wild weasel" roles, anti-radar/sam missions before the main strike groups arrive. There sure wouldnt be any more screaming about ho's with 1500 to 2000 knot closing speeds and missiles. To be accurate for the era, we gotta make some of those missles duds too, happened a lot back then.  May make the game mechanics more about strategy instead of how things are now, but players always find the least path of resistance in any game, but at least NOE was a much more historic and realistic apsect of war than it was in WW2 me thinks.

 I would love to see an accurate representation of vietnam in a game.

 What do yah say to that Hitech?

Greetings,

  WWII had a large variation in the types of airframes available.  WW I had at least an equal number of airframes.  That would be my vote.  Red Baron on an Aces High scale!  Cool!  Bring it on! (wait....what would I do without cannon?)  :O

HTC takes over the world....is what happens next.


As it is written in the book of S.A.P.P..



The Consortium Of 12

Book of S.A.P.P., Ewella 12:66 Chapter 12, Verse 12, "Whoa, fear the completion of the plane set, for this will herald the rise of the Grand Exalted Ruler and the Consortium of 12.  The world will pass onto them and they shall lead us into enslavement."

In the past, you have said it is one of your goals to add every aircraft that flew in WWII, into the game.

I can guarantee you he's never said that.  Please post a link to such a proclamation.  I don't think you realize how many planes fit that category.

a graphics update is probably the farthest from reality,  what kind of insanity would lead to the decision to update the game with graphics that are even comparable to average circa 2003, much less anything remotely current..

pathetic clouds, and triangle mountains.. FOREVER!!!   :rock

say what?

careful what you wish for.  This game is fun because of what it is,  Wana see what a WWI set up would be like?  Take your squad in the DA and fly in D3As for a few days straight.  Korea?  Just fly 262s all day.

I think this game is designed fine.  Graphics, more plains, damage models, TOD, maps, Strat etc, yes, please do keep developing.  You guys remember what happened when Coka Cola changed their formula right?

Don't break it, Don't touch it  :lol

If a Korean War version comes out that would mean finally having to make the B29, so it will never happen.

Aside from that it would also have a pretty sparse planeset compared to WWII.  Obviously the attraction would be mass jet vs. jet combat but that might prove to be more of a novelty in the long run and turn more into all the jets BnZing all the poor P51s, F4Us, and F80s.  Basically what we have now, just fewer planes to choose from.  But if a Korean War arena did appear one day, I would sure as hell give it a shot.

Not really Sullie.  AirWarrior had a korean arena without the B-29.  They had the Vader but by the korean war the A-26 was redesignated as the B-26 Invader.

All the Best...

I don't know why you would say that.

Said it as sort of a joke since the B29 has been desired since before AH even launched and we've still yet to see it.  Also based the statement on the fact that the B29 did not show up in the user vote a while back despite how much it is requested which would suggest a lack of desire by HTC to produce it.  Or they just wanted to avoid developing a large aircraft as opposed to a smaller one.  But if HT told you he'd like to have it in the game then great.
