how can it kill the game? if the B29 is setup with no formations, the load out won't be as much as a formation of lanc's flown by one pilot, if they want 3 B29's in a formation then they will need 2 more people to fly the other two planes

+1...there are many ways to make it fit without "Aces High Armageddon".

I see 2 opposite theories of what the b29 will do..

1. it will unbalance the game too much -- too high, too fast, too much ords

2. it's not so special, it's a sitting duck, most people wont use it right, don't sweat it.

the way i see it, both reasons are why I voted against it. Because either it's uber, and you'll never see one except as a tiny dot 35000ft above your base because very few will bother to intercept it, or it's just another bomber, in which case, I ask wtf is it gonna do that the other heavy bombers we already have can't??


ohwell, I think i am with the others that say "any new additions to the game are good". we will live with it.

Anyone else having flashbacks from a couple months ago and the new mossie threads?  :D

3x B-29s, 3x times the perk points of a single B-29.  It probabley won't be cheap, so I have no problems with B-29 formations, let them use up those perkies.

Pyro: Hitech, the bomber hangar is to small, B29 will explode at spawn
Hitech: I know...
Pyro: so, first we build new hangars?
Hitech: nope
Pyro: hehehehe
Hitech: hehehehe

There's a lot of assumption in that... maybe "old subscribers" have voted B-29 too? There are buff guys among them too.

I was subscriber for 5 years and would have voted B-29 too :)

You guys must also consider that a majority of Dickweed,and the 91st probably voted for the 29 to.

.....in which case, I ask wtf is it gonna do that the other heavy bombers we already have can't??

I'm going to ask the question of what would the Me410 do that the Me110, Fw190, F4U1C, Mossie, Ta152, etc, can't already do?

This argument of "we don't need this plane because X plane can do it's job" is invalid because the plane-set is large enough that any plane can sub for another aircraft. All the planes in the voting poll have another aircraft that could do their job so in the end it doesn't really matter.

Just another plane that will be used to dive bomb with. Everyone will fly it when it first comes out. Then like all other new planes, everyone will abandon it for their main rides. It will take the place of the lancs. But that about all it will do. Oh and stir up whines about the "nuke". So prepare for the whine fest.

And who cares about the B29 winning?
