I don't think that this should be a problem, forcing players to land on the strip adds a bit of excitement to landing a damaged plane.

Doing a deadstick approach and then landing and coasting to the rearm pad gives a sense of satisfaction to me since it isn't necessarily easy to do, not that it's that hard but it does add to the excitement IMO.


I think you can forget about this being changed for this version of AH, maybe HT has taken this into consideration for AH2. If he does then I'd like to see the terrain surounding the base to be spotted with potholes and mud bogs...just to keep the excitement level up yaknow ;)

Wasn't WB3 supposed to come out on the Xbox?

Great!  Nothing will prevent you from continuing to challenge yourself if you choose should HTC decide to make the model more realistic in regards to landing.

I'm a pilot in real life, and at the field where I fly, 9 times out of 10 I prefer to land on the grass next to the runway (either in power or in my sailplane...personally I find that more challenging).  When I do this, folks don't come running out of the FBO asking me why I ditched!  :)

Maybe HT will model a mud bog at each field and dedicate it to you....could call it Cromagnon bog ;)

How 'bout some potholes: Mawtholes

Then we could see some of the sights seen on the unpaved fields during the war....wouldn't it be fun to do a propstand or have a part of your landing gear collapse while you were trying to eek the highest score possible for that flight!

Gotta have the bad if you want the good on this particular point IMO.

I agree.  I had no idea that HT was considering this as a "fix" to people complaining about blowing up when hitting one.

Hmm...Lars I'd say you Men of Leisure (or is it light loafers ;) ) have been lazily sipping on too many over-iced lemonades...it's given you a brain freeze.

When you have a good argument and not a bunch of vitriolic comments aimed at me or my squad come back.  Till then..bu-bye.

Landing anywhere on ANY BASE TILE should be a successful landing, friendly or otherwise.

If an enemy base is capped enough to the point that you can land safely, then what is the REAL fundemental problem with receiving a safe landing.

I can't believe that HTC changed this. There have been previous posts on this subject, and from what I can remember, there wasn't such an overwhelming call for this change to justify this change.

MeatWacker......I'm with you on this one.  I've lost at least 90% of my tigers due to a sliver of wood on the ground.  I'd like my perkies back too.  I'm pretty sure I won't get them but....you know....wishful thinking

MOLs drink Flak Panzer Oil, not over-iced lemonades.  They also wear lime green leisure suits but that's a different topic.

Not unless HT is willing to give control of AH over to Mickey$oft; from what I understand, online games have to be hosted on Microsoft's servers. And the eternal crap involved in having to recertify the game for Xbox every time they released a patch or added/updated a terrain.
