IMO, As soon as HTC is Happy with AHII and everything is stable and what not, and they all take a long nap:)
I Think The Most Important Thing is some NEW Planes:)
While I am shure we all differ in what we would like, I think we can all agree that some new rides would realy be great.
So If you feal this way how about chiming in.
-
I think we have way too many planes. They should remove everything except the C-47 and the Val.
-
lol:)

Are you insane? Nix the Val for the Kate. The last thing we need are forward firing guns.

and the val should be perked.

Looking into my crystal ball.....
I see ......
a TU-2 !

If they can figure out how to do the Rear gun, it had a reversed perescope kind gizmo for sighting it. Thier was talk for a long time of it being added but nothing came of it:(
-
Pyro is on record saying planes are forthcoming after bugs & maps are ironed out.
Time for the Betty, B-25, an early P-38, P-39 and then all your wierd preferences.
-
nice sure cant wait for those p38s that will be awsome! :D
-
im all for new 38s, but new rides in general would be great.
~S~
-
New planes would be great... Maybe we'll see some in the future...:aok
-
Actually I would say terrain editor and then planes. So we can convert the old AH1 maps into AH2 and create new AH2 maps.
Then new planes would be nice. :)
-
I think the Ki84 is a real likely candidate. Along the lines of the TU2 would be the Me410, it also had some "interesting" modeling hurdles with regards to the rear-facing guns. It also had almost a dozen different forward-firing loadout combinations available of the years.
-
Yep, looking forward to working on some new planes for a change. I almost miss all the inevitable crying that goes on every time we announce a new plane.
-
forget it.

Single most important? Oh Dear...im sweating profusely at the thought of replying to this subject. hmmmm Not too cold i guess.... welp im going for it........................... ........PBY Catalina. NOT the PB4Y2 privateer. patrol navy version of the b24 with 6 turrets!
We already have enough bombers with multiple turrets, for you (3 kill per pass) fighter pilots to Pad Up your scores on... Fester :D
Just seen a documentary on the PBY...was very cool.

and is still missing is the PBY.
It could carry troops, torps, depth charges, bombs, defend itself and so many other things.
Yet no one has modelled it for game.
It would be cool to have troops and sit out on the water somewhere waiting for the opportunity to capture a base.
It was versatile and famous!
What you think?
Thinking of another idea someone brought up...rescue missions of downed pilots in the Sea. ahhh sounds like a refreshing new twist in AH :aok
Yeah...lets do it. :)
-
pB4Y privateer!!! the ultimate bomber lonewulf nothing would be better for the MA and it WOULD GET USED ALL THE TIME!!
because it has awsome defenses and speed and bombload.

All you need is spits - everything else is easy mode planes :D ---j

How about the terrain editor? I'm sure that's more important than another P-38 variant. :D
-
Uh ... Muuuuugz. Before seaplanes can be modeled HTC has to actually model sea. ;)
-
Sea is already there, thats what LVt's float on. Take the PBY and code it partly like what lvt's use on water and it should work.
-
Fester, that is an interesting pic their, what is it from? Somthing your working on?

You mean the size of the water area?

Your fighters and bombers also already float on the water...as well as PT boats. The PBY is unique in that it needs to be able to land on the SEA and the land....Im not even certian that the fighters and bombers wouldnt run on the water if the engine didnt get killed by the prop hiting the water? Because it also will belly slide on Land and the result seems the same as when you ditch on the water.

yeah I had 3dsmax6 for a while but I returned it for a refund and its no longer on my hard drive so i just have pics and the pb4y2 and B-24d 3ds files saved on a disk unfinished.
pb4y would be the ultimate Main arena bomber and its similar enough to the B-24 to make it and variations not to difficult.
-
Very Cool looking 3D model. Looks like a lot of hard work.
................
Of course we nead another US Heavy Bomber like we nead a hole in the head but I do wish you well on geting what you want:)

More like a pt boat but I'm sure it isn't that simple. (Think sea/land transitions at the ramps - gear up/gear down config - ocean takeoffs) :)
The game needs better water physics before we ask for seaplanes. Sink planes first. Sea planes later. ;)
I wouldn't put the Catalina high on the list.

Drop your gear for a water langing, Mugz. The game needs a better ocean physics model before we start going with seaplane hybrid designs methinks. ;)

Please elaborate. This subject is of great interest to me.
What changes or add ons do we need for the sea?

Other than it being nothing more than a blue surface to ditch a plane on, you mean? You want a sea plane but you really don't want sea, it seems. The seas and oceans move, bro. Airplanes that aren't seaplanes sink. Sometimes even seaplanes do. ;)
Catalina .... the flying pt boat? I don't think so.
:D

Sorry Arlo... i dont recall ever saying that i dont want a "SEA"
Re-read my replies and you couldn't even say that i have implied that i dont want a SEA. Im simply asking you what you have in mind. You "Seem" to have some ideas about what you would do the creat a "SEA".
I simply replied to the subject matter of this thread.
"The Single Most Important Thing..after... "
However after re-reading your replies. It is clear that you havent even added your " Single Most Important Thing..after... "
Instead you are acting like an Idiot. If you are saying that your
"Single Most........" is to change the SEA? Then use the "Reply" button
Dont use my replies and quotes to convey your thoughts, as this implies disagreement. If you dont like the "Flying Boat" then just say it. Dont make an argument out of it. :rolleyes:
Thank you :)

Please please please please can we have a Sea Fury? please?

Holy crap!:lol :aok

Oh wait .... :rolleyes:

Whats the big Japanese flying-boat-bomber doomahitchie? Thats the one I want (as bombers go).

Cit, having a PB4Y would be excellent, but I'd still prefer a B-24J. I guess its the sentimental ties that have me pullin for one. :aok

For what? You said the single most importantest thing for HTC and co to work on next is the Catalina. I said no it ain't. I said even working on sea dynamics is more important. Adding Japanese fighters, an Italian bomber and even allied mbts deserves more attention. What are you expecting now? Besides ... in your melt-down post you said you didn't want an argument. Now you don't seem so certain about that. Apparently you just want everyone to agree. Had I known you were a woman I wouldn't have bothered. :D

Nobody asked you to say what you DIDNT think was the most important .... it was asked what we each though was the most important thing. If you want to be an prettythang Ok...so you are an prettythang. Nice to meet ya mister hole. Moron :rolleyes:

Yes, ma'am. Whatever you say. No that dress doesn't make you look fat. Yes the Catalina is the perfect accessory. :D

New planes are nice,but I'd rather have TOD ASAP.

Only a hunch Sir...But i personally doubt that we will see AH2 TOD in less than a year from now. But i do hope that HTC will realize their plans and get TOD finished some day.
