Well, it's got nothing at all to do with Aces High, and I'm afraid it's a little too explicit for the forums here.

Most of us know what that is Fatty:

You said "Wishes"-

1.   Dora – Got it.

2.   Saitek X45 WinXP Support so I can play again and have hat switches for views

3.   Realistic cockpits in AH

4.   Massive Bomber formations (read fix to current bomber gameplay)

5.   Carpet bombing and realistic Norton Sight

6.   Weather effects

7.   IL-2 graphic quality in AH or any other mmog (yah, right)

8.   Blast radius effects from bombs and plane impact

9.   More planes added focusing on a period. Meaning introduction of planes in succession that make sense. The German bomber jet thing and a Val fill the set but for what and when?

10.   That hideous ape man pilot thing with easy over grey egg eyes to just go away forever

11.   Real maps for the MA

12.   Infantry

13.   Chutes that fold and go ballistic in instead of the strange TNT in the pockets effect

14.   Blood effects in the cockpit

15.   Cockpit gauge and damage model

16.   The weapon load that shoots rockets off German planes up into bomber formations

17.   A real honest to God manual for AH bathroom read ready


19.   Packers vs. Rams playoff rematch 2002 in Lambeau Field with –5 temps and snow

20.   That hideous ape pilot thing removed if not explained “Why?”

21.    Subs

22.   Destroyers for the Subs

23.   Anti-armor guns

24.   Manned flak batteries

25.   Bail shows plane going down

26.   Score for chute kills

27.   Informative updates on progress from HTC in a email newsletter for the subscribing faithful rather than random “News Posts” and the subsequent inevitable BBS clog of uninformed whines it generates as a constant to the current mismanaged formula

28.   A Weapon load out area/ Gun convergence screen change that is in 2D and easy to navigate much like other sims with a separate 3D rotational plane graphic to see what you have

29.    Custom Skins. Not per individual or squad, just in the sense of flying a 109 in a particular realistic era limited for everyone.

30.   B17 guns that look as good as even old WBS

31.   Scalable Icons. I like icons, and they ARE needed. Still, they are bigger than the planes, I can’t see how making them smaller would diminish anything. Info is there, it just isn’t a huge red billboard, my long time thought of how to fix the “reduced icon” argument.

32.   IL-2 mouse and over-all cockpit view system integrated with AH

33.   Call signs locked and re-accessible. I find great fun goofing on names, but goodness, if a guy takes a month off for a financial reason, or even quits, I don’t want to figure out who they are every month.

34.   Kick this guys (SOB) ass-  ...

 Don’t ask...

35.   Scenarios run at normal times like dinner time and not on the weekends. Some people do get laid and venture out of the house.

36.   A auction sight that  links off the BBS for AH players to trade hardware

Seems fair to me

good list Creamo.

I'ld add (for right now )...


a.  A more realistic CV/fleet damage model; ships listing, guns out of action, smoking, etc etc.

b.  Manual flaps for all planes. No more auto-retract.

c.  Persistant squelch feature

That would certainly explain it’s use and introduction in the MA Skurj, ty.

Not to mention HTC’s gameplay post make’s it even more clear-

 It’s a balancing act between what is needed for this and what is needed for that and what is needed for now and what is needed for later.

Heh. This is going to be some scenario or something. I just can’t see the roundtable HTC think-tank on making it before say the P-40.

 Clue me in.

I already have what I would wish for:

One hell of a great WWII air combat sim that continuously improves and a bunch of great people to play it with.
