Title: So.. whats next for update?
Post by: Furball on November 26, 2005, 05:28:58 AM
Looking at the aircraft to be used in TOD.. it seems that HTC are making good progress.

So what do you think is next in line for the update?

The obvious one would be the B-17, that is quite central to the scenario they are aiming at.  Would we need a new B-17 variant? The G is a bit late if they are aiming at starting it in 1943.

Also, depending on how much they want to incorporate the RAF's contribution, the Mosquito is in a much need of an update, as is the Lancaster.  But i think they will fall on the back burner a little.

Think HTC said in a news update a while ago that after the 109's and spits were done they would start concentrating and updating some other planes then just the ToD ones.

So maybe nothing that has to do with ToD?

Pyro said that after 109/spit theyw ill begin work on the B17G. He said the model will have to be completely built from scratch.

You did everything at night... and seeing how AH has degraded night time since AH2 first came out... well you get the idea

190 and 152 FM needs a second look.

imo 190/152 FM should come along with B-17 update.

What Wilbus said!

The frequency of plane renovation/creation has been increased dramatically in the past few months.  So no 'side' should claim they got the shaft, or the 'their plane' needs it more.  When was the last time we had a 12 plane update?  Supah and Nate have done an incredible amount of work with the help of the skinner team.  they're crankin'em out :)  

Look forward to more planes and faster renovations folks.  :)

must get p39
Title: So.. whats next for update?
Post by: Morpheus on November 28, 2005, 01:16:56 AM
Yeah, P39 would be nice, a fitting addition for ToD mind you.

Oct is right, they've really been crankin em out fast. An earlier B17 is also a good idea.

I would still, like to see a B29. For a bomber that had such a huge impact on the war in the pacific especially, we need it.

I'd suggest adding the B17F.  No need for the E.  It just didn't show up enough.  Yeah it flew the first mission but the F and G were the work horses.  Same applies to the B24D.  Not worth the effort I wouldn't think. Better off adding an OD/Gray H model B24 which wouldn't really be anything different then changing the skin on the silver Js.

Might consider adding a Halifax.  Lanc's and Halifaxs flying daylight raids in the summer of 44 on.  With the Spits, and RAF flown Mustang IIIs and IVs, that might add some fun.  A bomber version of the Mossie as well without the guns.

Me410 and a gunned nosed Ju88G for those poor nightfighter guys who had to go out in daylight on occasion to hit the bombers.

And yeah I know there appears to be an aversion to the B25 but the RAF was using them alongside the Bostons on those cross channel raids by 2 Group escorted by all those Spits.  A B25C/D would fit kinda nice that way.  No not a solid nose gunned version, just your plain old glass nosed bomber version.

And it might be kinda nice to have a remodeled car door Tiffie for those pre-D-Day times when the Tiffies were also escorting those raids across the channel.

Hey I can dream can't I? :)

Bring the 110 Cockpits up to the level of the 109s. And the IAR 80. Subliminal suggestion, move along And the Hurris on par with the Spits.IAR81c Another Axis bomber would be great. Probably pull for the He-111. A Romanian one, escorted by IARs

The Germans had a tri-motor for para-troops--I believe that was armed--I say we get the B-29 AND the Condor. Thats the ticket for anti-shipping and guns. They had range speed and guns as well as fairly good speed...while your at it, how about the Scorpion. Yes..I know--I am dreaming and know the Scorpion saw very little action but was a he** of a nightfight I understand.
And why no Heinkel-111's???? BOB mainstay IMHO. Oh well...I'd settle for a perked B-29 anyday
