Now that I've been in AH for a while, about 3 months, I have had a chance to do most things in the game. I am in a squad, I've flown the CT and enjoyed it very much, entered snapshots and scenarios and participated in KOTH.
So, my question is, do we need an alteration of AH that allows for the greater immersion of the hardcore sim junky or would the game be better served by adding some more specialized arenas, improving graphix quality and fleshing out the plane set.
I personally think adding a fiter town to a new map with closer air fields and continuing to put tank town on new maps is the way to go. Spend the extra time adding new planes and improved graphix. You could simply add a new line of special events that would keep track of a "career" and automatically give you awards and promotions based on your performance as indicated by CMs and logs and create a forum on the bbs to keep track of it all and have discussions.
