Hi Tech Decision on P-63

[earl1937]

  As anyone can see, with over 400 responses to the original post, there is a great deal of intrest in having the P-63 in the Aces High stable. How about it Hi Tech, with some in the game already that is not being used much, maybe the 63 would be used a good deal more than what is here.

HTC doesn't respond to such threads.  There is a Beaufighter thread and a Whirlwind thread that are much longer and no comment, beyond the Beaufighter being on the last poll, on either has been made by HTC.

Even when a requested aircraft or tank is added nobody knows if the requesting of it had any influence on it being added or if HTC had added it completely independently of what people on the BB posted.

I understand Hi Tech's attitude about requests, but if you don't ask, you will never know, and I bet that I won't get a entry in my personell file for asking!

Beaufighter made it to the poll, that is the response the community wnated. It didn't win. It will probably be on the next poll. All we are asking is to put the P-63 in the poll.

If the P-63 is in the poll the only things that might contend with it are the A-26 and the M26.  Unless you want a poll of those three it is pointless to even bother with a poll containing those units.  These are things that ought to be added without a poll when HTC determines it is time.  Polls ought to be used to for the community to pick something when the outcome is uncertain.

I don't see the overwhelming interest in having it immediately added to the a/c list that you do, Earl.

400 responses of various kinds (many of which are from the same members, many of which include the
opinion that it's nowhere near the time to model it, many of which have nothing to do with the P-63)
doesn't indicate 400 wants.

P-63 generated alot of buzz, which is interesting because other aircraft like the G.55 and Re.2005 I couldn't get more then 1 page of comments on it.

Mainly because the P-63 has some stellar stats, where the other aircraft I post don't have much.

Wasn't saying we have 400 responses in the positive for wanting the P-63, what I am saying is this: I might see 1 P-39 every 2 or 3 days, and sometimes a week goes by without seeing one, so why not discontinue the use of that aircraft and put something in its place that people will use?

Why in the world you would remove a plane from AH??  Just becasue it's -in your eyes - not 'popular' enough

indeed. The OP is clearly skewing the facts here.

Yeah, I am sure that would make those pilots who do like it pretty happy campers and thereby supporters for your idea of what planes others should be flying. Why don't you make a list of every plane you are willing to do without for your list of planes you think will be enjoyed more by those who fly the game. You seem to have a much better idea of what I should fly than I do sir.

Because in Scenarios its a must have plane for just about every theater of operation during WW2, and because its also one really fun plane to fly:

You forgot the meteor, that gets my vote

Frankly. No.

I honestly hope it's never added. Of the 400 posts on it, they all come from the same 10 or so people. Just to piss them off I hope HTC never responds and never adds it.
