AH doesn't prevent you of using them. Why go for virtual if you can use real...

Lets just have an option to turn the sun effects off!!
While we're at it, no more dark periods as well, make it high noon all the time!!
Give the special effects to the CT and TOD please. :)

Ya, back in WW2 the sun was shining "high noon" all the time and very seldom ever got somewhat dark

When I watch Band of Brothers or Saving Private Ryan I am often puzzled why no one is wearing Bermuda shorts and tank tops, they need to do some research or something:rolleyes:

The MA is not WW2, if you're into that kind of realism it belongs in the CT and the upcoming TOD :)

Alky:
"The MA is not WW2, if you're into that kind of realism it belongs in the CT and the upcoming TOD"

Then why is it everyone and their brother complains about how all these planes need to be "realistic" ??

Then an LA7 should be about the same speed as a C47 right?
Cuz this ISN"T WW2, it's a GAME {don't even go there about the "sim" part}

Then HTC needs to just put the brakes on any further devel to the game and just make everything even acroos the board. That way we have perfect visability, just enough light, planes that are all matched, unlimited ammo and fuel.  
Which will work out great, you can up a P47 or an  A20, they'll fly exactly the same.  You know,  don't wanna get to "real" :rolleyes:

Sun and Weather effects should be part of the game.

Why have aircraft that are "realisticly" modelled if everything else is not? Why have terrain? Why have towns and buildings and water?

I know, why not just make the MA look like flat green ground, a perfect blue sky and 100% ambient lighting? Yeah that would be cool then we could get in "realistic" dogfights with other planes.
