Hey gang at Hitech Creations......
I am not sure if this idea was discussed before but ....here goes.
In the WWI arena, is there anyway to "turn-on"
enemy player aliases (the name you see over the aircraft....as you would for people in your own country)? I was thinking along the lines that you need to be 2.0 or closer to get a visual on the enemy alias you are about to encounter.
Now, before you all behead me.....Here is my reasoning
During WWI, when the pilots would engage each other, and they got close enough to each other, they knew who they were fighting against. Just by a visual, they knew their opponent. As expected, this added to the excitement of the impending dog fight. Put yourself in their shoes/pilot seats....Imagine for one moment your flying in WWI, in your DR1, and you get close enough to "see" that you are engaging against and a renowned 'Ace', like....Baron Manfred von Richthofen - Red Baron..... You know its him and he knows it you. Based on you
knowing who your opponent is...you know you need to step it up a notch, IF you are going to be victorious.
Here is my wish -->>> To have enemy aliases turned on, so I can see the name of my opponent at a predetermined range (ie: 2.0). I want to know "who" I am up against, before the merge. In my humble opinion, it brings the simulation to a more accurate level.
I have flown previous WWI online arenas (Flying Circus 1998-2000 & Dawn of Aces 2000-2002) where this option was enabled, and it worked perfectly. Fingers crossed your team might consider this option.
peace,
