AI is better than no players on at all.  It can supplement low number periods.

Unless you prefer to site-see during low numbers time slots.  :old:

Add the folded wings on f4u's when they are parked(because i fly f4u's and it will look even more coooler). Also add a button to slide canopy open. And please please please make it difficult as possible to hit the HQ. :cool: :cool: :cool:

That's a matter of opinion.  Drone bombers that will hopefully tend to get players headed in a direction?  Yes please!  Drone fighters, I'm not as enthusiastic about.

Flights of drone bombers, routinely hitting multiple towns on all three sides could help spread out the action.  Bomber hunters would have more targets and base takers would have a head start on several towns of each enemy chess piece.  At least have drone bombers on the large maps, as they can stagnate badly.

If this happens, I would hope to see varied types of bombers, not just flights of B-17's/24's.  Example would be; in a section of a front that has high enemy activity, you would see bombers like the B-17 & B-24.  In area's were there isn't any activity, you would see G4M1's, Ju-88's, B-25C's, etc.

If the numbers will be based off of bomber's defensive ability/bomb load/survivability, then you'd see a lot more G4M1's show up vs B-17's.  Another spot into numbers would be based off of a side's numbers.  The side with the highest number would spawn in stuff like the G4M1, Ju-88, B-25C; while the side with the lowest number would spawn in stuff like the B-17, B-24 and B-29.

I wonder if there are new "HD" cockpits in the works? It's a shame to have cockpits like A-20 or Ki-61 in 21st century.

Good idea, except leave out the perk bombers.  :aok

Well, I was under the guess of, shooting down these drones wouldn't give you the perks that shooting down a player based plane would.  Maybe 25%?  The 29 was just an example. :)  It would be bad for a town.  Now if we had to level a city to capture something, then.... :devil

I woke up from a dream at 3:30 this morning:

I was driving through my town, it was dark and lightly raining. As I came to an intersection, I beheld a large illuminated billboard. Featured on the billboard were several formations of B-17s, on the top was the Aces High logo and on the left side there was a caption that read something like "CT coming soon!". Can't say for sure, but I think I saw a March release date (pretty sure that was stuck in my head because that is when we are set to open an apartment complex).  :noid

Yeah, I'm looking forward to this.

Nope.  Not an opinion during low number times.  I wish it was!!!

1. See action on map\dar - up a plane.
2. Get to location only to find no one there.
3. Repeat.

Better to engage a drone than nothing at for of many us.
