Other than seeing the half mangled body of Torque hanging from an F4U leaking blood and entrails as it sprial flaming into the earth and exploding in a fireball, I don't need any more special affects.

I was just in a dogfight when HT was discussing this, so it slipped my eyes if the navy comes with 1.03 or 1.04.  But its coming...

Yeah, I was on and caught the tail end of that.

Something about Flak guns in 1.03 and navy (Battleships, Carriers, and PT boats) in version 1.04.

Hey hey, stop it!...why go so fast?. we just took Land battles and that still needs a lot of work in order to do it better and better (troop carriers, artillery, better AAA on fields, etc).

Also there are still some planes to be done (190D9  , and russian, japanese...) in order to complete a good planeset.

So, if we start asking for a navy we also need dive bombers, torpedo carriers...etc etc...so more work

Lets go step by step. Dont forget that HTC only has 6 members and they are overloaded w ith work. Lets not try to bite too much in few time, guys, we can have stomachache and noone wants that mmm??  

Keep the good work ,HTC. Whatever is done by you,guys, will be a nice step on the right direction (just as you've shown in last year  )

- Z-Buffer; means AH will finally be used with 3D Revelator glasses   (wonder how icons will do)
- other effects stuff

I think in Dan Fords "Flying Tigers" he recounts the 67 Sq RNZAF'rs having to remove a sock to clear the oil from the windscreen of their Buffalos.  If I can besmirch my aircraft eviscerating those suspended in their silken safety devices I would like the ability to remove a sock, to clear my view.

I admire these guys at HTC for takin up the fight against WWII online, face it guys, if and when wwII is goin up, theres going to be a mass defection to that game. Atleast for a while, but it might be enough to worry about the future. We got a nice flightmodel, and the vehicle thing is getting polished. Now the rest have to get up, sooner the better.
I dont mind being a paying beta tester, not at all. Cause the flightmodel is not beta, thats for sure.
