I think that they need to add movement to the pilots legs before anything like this. I dont like the levitation device that they use to move currently.

I want each pilot to carry 2 grenades and a M42 with 1000+ rounds. Anyone who does not also want this has never spawn camped a hanger/field with their pistol.

Now, when I bail out of my plane as soon as I get shot at, I would like to have a browning 30 cal or like an mg 42, because from what wiki told me, thats what pilots had in real life. Now, if you are still reading this, my actual wish, I have noticed in the updated planes, the pilots have been updated to sport uniforms from their country of origin, when you do bail out (Hopefully only if you have actually been shot down! ) would is be possible to get country correct pistols/side arms? such as the No.2 revolver for British/Commonwealth, TT33 for USSR, Nambu for JP (not sure of the "type" designation for that one) and Walther p38 or p108 Luger for germany, I know I am missing a couple and some of the numbers/ names could be wrong, but I think it would be one of those little things that could make the game that much better :) tell me what you think guys.

Imowface, I just want you to know, I got the sarcasm.  So many people didn't read your entire post and/or didn't read any of the replies.  I'm sorry it failed.  :lol

Per the following image, I think this wish would open a really big can of worms...

Think its a samurai sword he's carrying, the rear gun was a bow and arrow and it was already inside the plane.

Either way, he's not trying to carry it with him when he bails out. All these comments about removable weapons in aircraft being taken with the crew when they bail is total b.s. Airplane crews, especially the pilots, were not airborne infantry trying to parachute with rifles and machine guns strapped to their backs or in rucksacks attached to their legs.

Pure silliness...

thank you gyrene, all I am asking for in this wish is to give us historically accurate side arms pertaining to the plane you bail out of, in other words, not Mg's or anything of the sort, just standard issue side arms, and sorry for double post

My god, you guys collectively suck at reading comprehension.  :lol  Read the entire post, then reply.  This wish is not all that crazy, if indeed you don't stop after the first line.  A simple re-skinning of the sidearm perhaps wouldn't take that long, as long as you didn't worry about remodeling it for accuracy or realism.  I could be wrong here though.
