Engine failures

Having that kind of sucks in games like these.  AW had randomized engine failures, would suck to see all of a sudden a system message about an engine or hydraulic failure or bad fuel and your plane would fly like crap.  The randomizer was one of the most hated features of Air Warrior.

Random failures punishes you for playing the game. It also removes any personal skill or ability in a game that gives us fixed weapons platforms with the SAME performance and equalizes all else so that skill is the biggest defining factor....

No random failures.

Terrible idea.

Wasn't a big fan in real life, for sure a no for in game.

For more "realism" you can try IL2 Cliffs of Dover Blitz. You can use the ATAG server which has multiplayer. It is very different from AH3 but is fun. No icons, I need Track IR to  be able to look around, no autopilot, you dar, you have to navigate.

We already get random failure from the internet.

Maybe it could only apply to those who continually use WEP as if it was just a normal throttle setting and then come to the BBS to complain that it doesn't last long enough.

A bit off topic but, was there a time in AH (or AW) when you could wreck the flaps by leaving them deployed at too high speed?  Or, did we always have auto-retracting flaps?

I think that if you burn your WEP out than there should be chance of engine malfunction.

I also think that there should be a chance of malfunction after multiple rearms and refuels.

It’s just the nature of the beast.

AW you could damage your flaps from over speeding.  Auto-retracting flaps has always been in AH since I've played.
