Anyone else find the Arena 51 gameplay...

my dad says it looks like a Y Wing fighter from starwars. i think it came outa startrek.

if you go back to the 2010 convention threads, I could swear hitech said they paid $20 for the 3d model from some 3rd party and threw it together in a few hours, specifically for the evil con mission.

I think it looks more like something from the 'The Last Starfighter' ..

The mines killed it for me, no one wants to fight but go vertical and drop mines on anyone who follows.

Looks to me like a miniature version of the Excalibur from the Babylon 5 spin-off Crusade:

sidestep & torpedo

Tried that... said screw it when a mine hit me after I sidestepped and went the complete opposite direction... the suckage is strong with me.

never seen the above before, must be something from fan fic or comic or those paperback off-shoots.

The cockpit is pure F22.

For Korea we just need 2 new planes 

Mig and Sabre we have everything else to make it credible

I wish they'd let us know what they modeled the claw on.

The Brewster...

...super addictive?

The FM of the Claw forces everyone into a turn and burn style fight because it's impossible to BnZ in these things. I also find the weapon balance to be perfect.

If HTC had the man power, they could make a very, very addictive mini game and sell it for a couple bucks through steam.

Why does this not surprise me from an air-quaker?

MiG and Sabre might make it credible, but I think we'd need more to make it successful.  Probably under a dozen aircraft would do it though, and maybe 5-6 additional tanks and GVs.   I think it'd be way more interesting than the WWI arena, especially with ground and ground support and interdiction operations.   

Might even pull me out of WWII arenas if it was set up like the Axis vs Allies arena.  Not sure I'd stay too long in a Korean-era MA.    I think the scenario team could cook up some great scenarios, too.

Nah brewster dives much better than claw.
