WWI A/C is nice... Higher Fidelity DM is nice...

Your idea is self defeating Shuf, no developer can keep up with guys thinking up scenario's with unusual plane types in them.

I beg to differ. There is a rather small set that is really needed.

If you'd ever been in a tbm 1vs1 I believe it's going to be similar to that.  I love tbm 1on1's and I'm looking forward to the new arena.  Your always going to get hoed ect. but it's kinda like in golf out of 72 shots it only takes 1 good one to make you come back.  Same in any thing else in the world and in Aces High same thing that 1 good fight brings you back.

You mean the aircraft that the scenarios and FSO needs.

I agree with the need and want for more WWII planes for scenario/FSO usage.  I also like the idea of WWI.  I'd choose more WWII planes than WWI planes in a heartbeat though.

Knowing what you like to do in the game it is understandable Kermit, but i think the change of pace and the new blood WWI will bring in is worth the effort.

In your opinion Shuf, the next will say that he wants different stuff for his scenario etc etc

LOL, just wait till ppl start asking for the SPAD VII w the 37mm spudgun firing thru the prop hub, LOL!!!

Yes it existed in 1916...

Well this thread really went off topic!

You expected different?

A quick google sez it was the Spad XII, and that the 37mm was a one shot deal with in flight reload required 

[RipChord929]

Yeah thats right Box.. I didn't catch that it switched from V to X in the middle of the article I was reading...

The scenario crowd will dramatically lower the volume when we have:

He 111
Ki-43
G4M
Yak-1 and 1/B
Lagg-3
Pe-2 or Tu-2.

That's not a complete list, but those are the biggest holes.  It's a little embarrassing that Aces High does not have the He 111 with all of the times the BoB has run.

But configurable 8v8 (or hopefully 16v16) rooms is what I'm most looking forward to!  Especially if you can utilize the AI aircraft!  Opens up a whole lot of possibilities.

I'll respond to the OP . Yes, I am looking forward to this more than most things we've gotten lately.  I hope they will release some info on it.  I'd like to know how/if we can use custom terrains like we did in good ol H2H.  If we have to use the current "official" terrains...well...blah.  That would lose a lot of its appeal to me right there.  We can do so much with the new Terrain Editor, it'd be a shame to not be able to use it to its max potential.

Was thinking about the same thing the other day (the 12)...and waiting when the first mention of the said plane appears.

Congrats!

Well this thread really went off topic! 

I tried Trukk.   Maybe if we had a WW1 plane thread or 4, oh wait.....

[FiLtH]

   Think of it as zeros and p51s. There are people who fly all types. Some will be in the tightest turners, others will be in the fastest.
