Korean war arena

[Plawranc]

I cannot believe Im saying this.

The old farts are right.

WW2 needs to be finished before we get on with WW1 and Korea. I have ROF to keep my WW1 urges occupied, and Jet Combat? yaaaaaaaaaaaawn. Let Hi-tech make AH2 THE COMPREHENSIVE, instead of PREMIERE, WW2 MMOCFS before we expand into other areas. 

[Ack-Ack]

perk the F-86, problem fixed 

Depends on the Sabre.  Early Sabres like the C model wouldn't need a perk but the F model would as that the jet the majority would fly.  It would be like the C-Hog days in early AH.

ack-ack

I strongly suspect that any model of Sabre would end up being, by far, the most used unit simply due to being the Sabre.

Can we all agree that it's below filling in ALL holes in the WWII arenas with reasonable coverage, and finishing the WWI arena up a bit more?



Because if we can, then we can also get rid of this thread, as HTC is well aware of the fact that some people want the Korean war arena. And once you've said that it would let us add some new stuff, you've exhausted all of its positive virtues.

No one is saying it's even remotely a priority.  The guy brought it up and got ripped for it.  Yes it's been brought up a million times.  Considering HTC knows everything you've already said, I don't think it was out of line to respond with what would be intriguing to some of us about a Korean arena.  Note that in saying what was intriguing, it's also been pointed out each time that it won't work so relax.

Are you even playing yet?  If so, go wash your tank

BS....I have never know him to just hate something. Like any person that's not blind he can see what plane sets we are heavy on and which plane sets are lacking. So he advocates for the country's that are lacking.

And I feel he is very correct on how Korean war arena would turn out. Everything that isn't a Misstang in the MA is considered a Hanger Queen now anyways. But all of a sudden if we get the Korean war arena everyone swears they will take 51s and Yaks against jets. These same folks wouldn't take a P39 in the MA now because it's not über enough....but that would change right?

No thanks to the F-86 arena.

     Apparently I have misunderstood the years of Karnak bagging on US iron...because it is US.  Because you agree with him doesn't
necessarily make him right.

I don't bag on American stuff.  I like gaps to be filled and the American stuff has the fewest and narrowest gaps and thus the least need by my count.

If, for example, we didn't have the P-38 and the vote had been between the Yak-3, Beaufighter, Me410 and P-38 I would have voted for the P-38 hands down.

Here is me "bagging" on American stuff the other day:

The P-61B would be a nice and fun addition to the game.  While it would have certain surprising capabilities I don't think it would be as potent as a lot of people fear.  It isn't that fast and its power to weight ratio isn't particularly good either.

My guess is that it would mostly end up being used like the Bf110G-2 due to its ordnance capacity and guns.

So let me guess, Karnak shot down one of your US bird request and you've never gotten over it?

It will be OK.....just breath!

[Bino]

Have any of you folks ever played out an F-86/MiG-15 match-up in another game?  Here's what I've seen: lots and lots and lots of maneuvering, almost *no* use of the much-beloved stall-fighting we see here in the current MA, h-u-g-e turn radii due to the speeds and G forces on the pilots, and finally, precious few chances to fire guns due to the combined aircraft speeds and relatively short gun ranges.  It's really pretty boring, IMHO.

I suppose that MiG-15s intercepting B-29s might be a little more engaging.   <shrug>

He is right that I have frequently objected to requests for more American stuff.  He is wrong about the reasons for that.

If only for a chance to fly this

Only reason I object to any more american birds is fact we have enough 38s and 47 versions, same for 109s, 190s and spitfires.

We need other plane sets or complete them out first, before we get more "versions".

[LCADolby]

same for 109s,

We need the E3 and E7 

[Karnak]

Variants needed:

B-25J
Bf109G-6/AS or Bf109G-14/AS
Fw190A-2
Ki-61-I-Ko
La-5
LaGG-3
P-51A/A-36 (no cannons)
Seafire Mk III

Variants needed:

B-25J
Bf109G-6/AS or Bf109G-14/AS
Fw190A-2
Ki-61-I-Ko
La-5
LaGG-3
P-51A/A-36 (no cannons)
Seafire Mk III

Much rather stay away from more 109s/190s for a while, rest on the list is quite reasonable I would throw SeaHurricane IIB/IIC to that list just to add some carrier variations.

[Tank-Ace]

Five, six things, then I agree we stay away from the big names for a while.

190A8 split in to early standard-armored, and late up-armored models
109G-10 (not needed, I just want it).
190F8 updated for weapons
109E7
190A2
109G6 AS



After that, we can pretty much leave the 109/190's alone till everything else is done.
