There is unrest in the playpen,
There is trouble with the trees,
For the kiddies hate collisions
And HTC ignore their pleas.

The trouble with the dweeblets,
And they're quite convinced the're right
They say the palms are just too lofty
And they smash all planes in sight.

But the palms can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made.
And they wonder why the quakers
Can't be happy in their shade?

There is trouble in the Forest
And the newbies all have fled
As the gamers scream "Oppression!"
And the vets just shake their heads.

So the dweebs all formed a union
And demanded equal rights.
"The palms are just too hardy;
They should never stop our flight."

Now there's no more oak oppression,
For they passed a noble law,
And the trees don't cause collisions.
Now back to your furball.

You know, Im my old flight sim (AW) They would design a feature that wouldnt be quite right.  They would end up disabling the feature, once they realised it didnt work, rather than fixing it.

But I have found with AH that is not thier approach. They design a feature, and If they find problems or see a better way to do it, The fix the problem.

If you brush a leaf, it certainly shouldnt mean instant death.  The trees now dont provide any cover.  If you crash into one at 100knts dead center, You probably will wreck your A/C

Given time, I have a feeling we will see improvments with the trees.  Its just a new feature that needs the wrinkles worked out.

Trees are fine, just make forests.

They should also be able to be TAKEN OUT.

Im sorry, but a HE SHELL should be a Nice chainsaw.

It is actually not so hard to hide behind trees when one; seldom >1, plane comes down on you.
The faster the GV, the more trees pass by in a given time length, so shielding oneself with a tree is much easier in M8 (the fnuctional one, not the present one) than Pz.

Actually have had a few planes (mostly spits for some reason!) clip into the tree in question or one next to it.

It would be very nice if HT takes trees from IL-2 and modify them so they wouldn't look like pancakes at low alt. Make forests too. Let GV drive thrue forests and make forest damagebile (sp?)

Trees are OK, but som open fields somewhere would be nice, it's pretty hard to ditch a damaged airplane and not having any open fields to choose from just a trees all over the map.
