Title: What we need besides Lanc and Ju88
Post by: Zigrat on August 22, 2000, 11:41:00 AM

1) T34 and sherman tanks (historcical scenarios baby)
2) IL-2 (no soviet ground attack now)
3) Ju-87 (need german tank buster)
4) Spit XIV (competetive late war RAF plane)
5) 190 D9 (Late war German plane to fight the pony)

those are what i think we need most, in order of most importance

we dont need more american or japanese planes for the time being until the Pac arrives with carriers.

Also, lets get icons limited to 4k yards so if you are flying for example 20k feet you wont see icons on a bogey at 3k feet.

Black dot is ok but make closer range equired for ID.

I think no icons is a bad idea, but icons with 1/2 the cuurrent amount of range seems good to me.

you are 100% right!

only 1 thing, we should get:
il2 and ju87 (would prefer the henschel 129)
at the same time.
and of course spit14 and D9 at same time.

and a BIG yes for the icon idea!

Agreed 100%,if 190D9 has MW50.

If not, SpitXIV perked.

With all the way on this one Zig!

One small suggestion on the icons....have the range marker disappear inside 1k.

I'd like to see this stuff, but hope that the PAC Arena is higher on the list.

We need a Japanese bomber or attack plane too.

Yes RAM 190 D9 with MW50.

as for the japanese stuff, well i figure we should wait till 1.05. Concentrate on europe and fill out the european planeset with the next release. Right now eastern front scenarios are very hard to do (no IL2 or t34) and same with mediterranian (no ju-87 or sherman)

 KI-61
 
 FM-2

 Adding these planes would give us more PAC scenario options.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Yep, I'd like any of those!  Again I'd like a Japanese bomber or Heavy German bomber and as always when asked this question I'd go for either the Mosquito or Beaufighter   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Why don't you make the Il-16 Sturmovik?  The 16 is more capable than the 2, and it would still be off the perk list.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)  The Il-2 could be used for scenarios, and the Il-16 for Main Arena fighting.

I can see everybody's wish list wants for ac as being a reasonable thing, wanting to balance the arena for historical (or at least semi-historical) play (please, I don't know enuf about what entered to service when to argue, so, I don't wanna argue). But I really think ships & CV groups would be way more important to interesting play than new AC. If they're gonna invest time working on the new update, I hope it's in these areas.

You are thinking of the Il-10 Rendar?

Title: What we need besides Lanc and Ju88
Post by: Rendar on August 23, 2000, 08:17:00 PM

The Il-16 was the final version of the Il-2.  I checked. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Yeah that's true but it was developed after the war and not mass produced or put into service with the VVS.
