Aces High II's Atomic Bomb?
You think the AH2 founders/editors can add the B-29 and it's ability to wield atomic bombs such as the small boy and the fat man?
Boy, that would probably get the fun out of the game. I mean, we can take out an airfield or a city with just one bomb and capture the base lol, though it will be ill-equipped because the bomb got rid of all the objects.
Anyway, what do you guys think? Maybe a bomb that is similar to the atomic bomb but with lesser, sub-properties?-- not as lethal as the actual atomic bomb?
What's the most powerful bomb in Aces High II anyway?
If it's not the B-29, can it be the V-2 rocket? Do some caliberation, and let a player have the ability to launch a V-2 rocket using certain measurements that is readable? Oh well...just ideas.
-
Oh boy here we go....
-
Hmmm.....12,215,652,267,684,816,984th thread on the subject.
Hell why not, let's add another!!!
BTW the answer is no and will always be no.
-
you have to have 20,000 perks to use it .
:noid
-
Well, if the atomic bomb was added, night could come back too... And anyone who upped their gamma would be in a world of hurt now and then :noid

My entire bomber mission launching into a hillside.

N0oK!1!!!1! H3LLZ Y34h!!!!

The current largest bomb the the Stuka car bomb:)
HTC has mentioned in the past that there will NEVER be a A-bomb in Aces High.
-
The 4,000lb bomb on the Lancaster is the biggest bomb in AH and HTC has said that it will remain the largest bomb as well.
As to the B-29A, why are 66% of the requests for it paired with the ridiculous request for the atomic bomb?
99.999% of B-29 raids were done with conventional bombs. it is entirely appropriate to have the B-29A in AH using conventional bombers. There is no need to ask for, or have, the atomic bombs.
It is worse that asking for B-25s to be available off of the CV, which is another patently ridiculous request.

Come on, now, Karnak, you're telling me you wouldn't stop and go "Oooooo?" :D

I say give everyone a button when they log in that resets the servers. On the button write "Press to Bomb and Win the War." Done. Your a super hero for a second, in your own mind obviously. Then you try to log in again and press the button again. :aok:rofl

Will the resulting mushroom cloud be framerate friendly? :rofl
Once school gets out, I bet at least two of these threads and 1 of the b25/cv threads a week. Any takers?:t

What'll be funny to see is how many "Where's the nuke?!?" threads we get once the B-29A is added with conventional bombs only.
-
:huh

This one rates an"Aw, fer chrissakes, use the effin' search button!!!!!!!!"

Not only that, it's in the completely wrong forum.
Not that I noticed.

Hasn't he figured out how to unlock the B-29 in the LW arena yet?

atomic bomb is already in game, lil known secret! Its Alt +F4....totally wipes out everyone all around and instantly wins game....SSSSHHHHH dont tell anyone tho! The great part is u can use it from any plane..Good Luck!!
-
And what a fine piece of work that B-29 pic is.
You ever did get to try that nuke superdud?
-
There could be a nuke as a perk cleaner :) ...kinda special bonus to clear perks worth of 6 months active and successful flying or so.
It would require something like 5000 perks and would clear every perk from every category when loaded. These perks would be lost immediately in the take-off regardless of any possible rtb from the mission.
This way we might see the nukes sometimes, but not even during every tour.
The nuke could detonate everything within some 5(?) miles... friend and foe. The nuker would get points accordingly... friendlies deducted from enemy points.
-
Sometimes even old bait works I guess, if its smelly enough.

As if the orbital strike in Planetside wasn´t bad enough :rolleyes:

Another American Bomber.........With NOOOOK?
Survey says...................NOPE!
Oh by the way this is like the bizlionth time this has been brought up.........
-
I think we need a Rule #18.
18) Posting requests for an atomic bomb on these boards will immediately suspend that person's ability to post here and will assign them the designation 'Atomic Dolt' until they bribe HTC to remove it.
The only way to remove that designation will be to bribe both HiTech and the HTC staff member who had the privledge of assigning 'Atomic Dolt' to the poster.

i wish we could get a perked tall boy..atleast the 12,000 lb version. i dont know why there stuck on only 4,000lb bombs. they had formations of tall boy loaded casters hunting german battle ships constantly. 77 tall boys were dropped on the tirpiz on 3 attacks... let alone the grand slam bomb. 22,000 lb. these bombs were used alot more than the atom bomb.

Because you get three of them and the hardest destroyable object in the game (not including HQ) is 3,000lbs. This is also why they are not planning to add larger bombs. It's a balance thing.

OMFG!!! Just imagine the crying when a nuketard drops on tank town and clears everything out........hhhmmmm......what a great idea!BRING ON THE NUKE!!:t

Tired of the Hordes ruining your furball fun? Sick of fighting off 50 to 1 odds. Better solutions for HTC has the answer for you. Just use our B-29, add one nuke, and drop it on a base where the hoards have gathered. Once the bomb goes off, it's guaranteed to land you 50 kills, plus as a bonus render the base completely unusable until the map gets reset. Be the first one on your block to get the B-29, for only $14.95 a month extra, and better solutions will throw in the nukes for absolutely free. But wait, if you order right now Better Solutions will triple your order and give you a flight of B-29's, all filled with nukes. That's three B29's, three nukes, all for just 14.95 extra each month.
:rofl :rofl :rofl

Use the SEARCH function, HTC didn't add this for nothing...
-
I think that they should let u unlock the atomic bomb and a b-29 but it cost like 2k bomber perkies, that way there not like 20 b-29s destroying every base on the map
-
How did you get that b29???

wheres that handy avatar about why we need the n00k? tells the story very well.

Diggin' deep!

Wait. I could see a legitimate use for this. Drop it and it destroys the whole map making it unusable and we get new ones :)

You let me down. The largest bomb is the "Cookie" aka the 4,000 lb bomb found on the Lanc. When I come down to Dayton, you're gonna hear about it young man.
-
STOP POSTING B29 threads HTC knows we whant them we probably will get a b29 but without a nuke so quit asking for it

id say yes to the nuke on one condition.
model the radiation as well so after the base has been captured the radiation stays around for the next 2,000 years.if anyone ups from that base they die slowly (5-8 mins) from radiation sickness.
i can see a 20-30 plane mission taking off from a nuked field without them nowing it and all blowing up after 5 mins :D

In case you hadn't noticed, Hiroshima and Nagasaki are bustling, modern cities with large, healthy populations in the here and now. There is no 2,000 year wasteland from a single WWII style atomic bomb.

what game is that

Oh, the joy of old threads brought alive - Solas, mate, you've brought alive a thread you wouldn't want to see. And SFraptor, Solas stated in his post that the game is "Lock On Modern Air Combat" (which you quoted with the pics and all).
Oh, and about the B-29, Originally posted by Pyro
Not true, perhaps you are thinking of nukes. We won't be doing those. The B-29 was one of the first planes mentioned when the perk system was announced. If it wasn't such a big time-intensive project, there's a good chance it would be in the game already.

Hmm...judging by what he said "Lock On Modern Air Combat"....
My best guess would be....the game is Lock On Modern Air Combat...

i was taking the piss.
ok in laymens terms: drop a nuke on a field thens its unusable, if a field is unusable then whats the point in nuking it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if theres no use in nuking a field then whats the point in having nukes!!!!!!!!
-
if theres no use in nuking a field then whats the point in having nukes!!!!!!!!
not to sound like i support nukes being added, but technically, they could still be used for HQ raids
you can already do the same thing with 1 flight of lancs already, but that's just not as much fun:rolleyes:
-
I say we nuke anyone who quotes 12 pictures and puts a few words after it asking a dumb question.
-
It might come. In 2005 they said B25-H will not be in the game because of the 75mm gun

You'd also have to deal with the nuclear winter + associated after effects (small maps, lots of fallout) - well, at least until the map reset I suppose... :p

the reason you will never see a tall boy or grand slam is that some dolt would go out hunting tanks with it at 200 ft.

I am now in favor of the NUKE - here's what it should do.
1. You drop it...
2. It goes off 10ft under your plane, vaporizing you and everything within 5 miles...
3. The game immediately NUKES all postings by you in the forums, and bans your IP address...
4. Simulated EMP (from the game client), immediately NUKES your internet connection, and then proceeds to scrub your hard drive so that we don't ever have to hear you whine about how the game needs a NOOK again.

Stuka Bomb 1800kg = 3968lbs
British Cookie:

There's very little in it.
A-Bombs aren't tactical weapons and Aces High is a tactical game.
Strategy = Killing Civilians.
Tactics = Military Engagements.
Not strictly true but for the purposes of gameplay it highlights how little we need an A-Bomb.
Now, no more threads about A-Bombs or I'll go all Chris Crocker on you! I mean it!
