A few answers for now

[Pyro]

More traffic than I can respond to.  I'll try to hit on a few of the questions that I've seen so far.

Clouds-  I don't know yet because we haven't tried.  Dale has a design in mind that he thinks will work nicely, but we won't know until we try.  But we are planning to give it a whirl.  We've been talking about making a micro-climate weather system where weather systems are greatly scaled down for playability.  Weather doesn't do you much good if the whole server is grounded.

Guncam-  Definately.  AH has been structured with most of the hooks for a guncam in place.  However, I'm not planning on this to be finished before beta ends, but on the other hand, I won't be surprised if it is.  If it's not it won't be long after that.

Planes-  I still don't know what the initial plane set will be.  Part of it depends on how fast we can crank them out and the other part depends on what I can get enough data on to be comfortable with.  The initial planeset will be a mix of standard staples and exotics, but they're mostly centered around 1944 to start.  As of now, we have a P-51D, Bf 109G-10, Spitfire Mk IX, and a B-17G under construction.  Other planes slated to come soon will be the La-5FN, C.205, and N1K or Ki-84.  I'm also thinking about using an He 111H-16 as a troop carrier to make the beta a bit more interesting.  Past that, we're just going to keep adding planes as fast as we can until we can't think of anything worth doing anymore.

B-17G equal something to bomb equal a reason for the fighter jocks to intercept the buffs equal some strategic elements?

And a He-111H? Yum yum. Even if this will be a lumbering beast that late in the war  

Juve: You took your time  
I really hope that you italian guys finally see some italian fighters online - although I have no special relations to Italy other than relatively close geographic distance I really like the lines of the C.202 Folgore and C.205 Veltro - real beauties.

All I can say Pyro is go with the N1K Shinden  

We all know you can do a really nice Ki-84 (just look in WB's) , but lets see what you can do with a N1K  

I'm sure you can add a Ki at a later date really quickly with the prior experience.

Oh and just so everyone knows, I will offically be the VERY first "Niki DWEEB" (expect this type of rant since x4 20mm will be popular).

Hmmm will bribery work Pyro? What is your favorite liquor? Wild Turkey? Glen Fiddich? Just say the word <G> hehehe

Pyro,
we italians sent Macchi's data, say, two or three times to iMOL. First it was you, then --MO--, we cant remember how many times we did it.

I do really hope to see the beautiful C.205, so we'll be able to give hell to those red nosed Mustangs, at least at medium-low alt.

Anyway, I'll enjoy flying the G-10 as well, as we did in the real thing.

Good work and good luck.
