1) Reduce the hanger damage score for 2,800lbs to 1,500lbs, allowing more aircraft the opportunity to take down hangers. Right now the American lineup dominates the offensive roll as they are the only planes that can take on hangers by themselves.
2) Introduce a perked ordnance system perking ords greater than 2,000lbs. This way single engine fighters cannot take down multiple hangers without a little more risk involved.
3) Reduce enemy icon range 3.0k, giving the higher ENY aircraft an opportunity to escape a fight if the situation demands it.
4) Perk all aircraft with 10 ENY or less similarly to the way tanks are perked. Most won't be afraid to risk 1-2 perks for their Pony D or LA7, but they wont be so suicidal.
5) Perk all 4 engine bombers as listed above, to cut down on bomb n' bailers/lanc-kaze
6) Allow the use personal skins. I don't know on the technical level how difficult this would be, but it shouldn't be to hard considering everyone has the option of turning off custom skins.
1. It would be nice to allow older planes to actually participate on the level that the newer planes do. However, it would make the later planes that much stronger/better.
2. Punishes planes with a larger bomb loadout.
3. While it may sound harsh, learn to fly. The older planes are what they are, and can kill if flown properly. Why should I take off in an older plane, knowing that I have the disadvantage, then request a handicap so I can escape combat easier. Yet I was the fool who took off in the older plane! Simply put, it sounds like a handicap card for older planes. If you don't know how to fly the plane, then don't use it. Or if you are learning, then be prepared to have your rudder handed to you.
4. If they don't care about their 'life' because it's free, they won't mind either if it's 1-2 perks.
5. Punishing the bombers, and the many because the actions of the few? Bombers are already slow, and quite vulnerable if you know what you are doing. There are only a handful of players who can even hit an enemy plane while being attacked, and fewer still who can kill in a bomber via gunnery. This simply puts a limit on the bombers for something that a few do. I actually LIKE lancstukas, because the m16/wirb/osti can kill them quite quickly.
6. I do not know HTC's stance on this, so can not make an educated opinion on it.
I wish HTC could use this as their BBS logo for the wishlist forum. I think it would be quite appropriate.
