1) Be able to select aircraft skins when starting a mission - every one in mission gets the same skin.
2) Repair hangar where you can take your plane and have certain repairs made, like control surfaces replaced, fuel leaks fixed, oil lines and radiator lines repaired, holes patched. Even if it ends your sortie or costs perk points.
3) P-39!
4) More Japanese planes.
5) Cockpit shake/shudder effect for close ack bursts, shrapnel sound effect
6) Gun sight/ gun safety on/off switch
7) Damaged engine wav sound - rattle rattle thunder clatter boom boom bang
S'all I got. Hard to think of improvements its so good already!

1) Tu-2
2) Pe-2

4) Permanent squelch list
-
1) More weather effects, rain, lightning, snow etc...
2) Bring back night time flying but have it revamped so moonlight provides light, bases have searchlights etc...also have a limited number of night hours say 3 hours daylight 1 hour night so there are less night than daylight hours.
3) Ability to resupply carriers via C-47 or other means just like you can resupply a base.
4) Different/improved terrains, desert, snow, actual mountains that don't just look like weird hills/cliffs with farmland on them.
5) Limit on being able to switch countries ie., you can only switch once per day or week etc...
6) Some sort of system that shows downtimes for things at bases and how much supplies would be needed to get it fully upped (read this one somewhere else)
7) Permanent squelch list :)

Tought you enjoyed fighting people off your bombers? No one in the right mind would attack a B29. I woudnt, not in a 190, not in a 109, and not in a 262. MAYBE in a 163, but only if I were fllying with my squad.

Theres a lot of guys who would. Some of whom would win. And some of those are always a threat to slice and dice an entire bomber formation. Some can still slice and dice me no matter what Im flying.

You wouldnt be able to slash a B29. We were having trouble attacking bombers in DGS, and we were above them, waiting for them, and they had a max alt of what... 22k.... at 30k, a bomber going even faster than a fortress, with an even more deadly defensive armament, you wouldnt stand a chance. You seem to forget that once at 30k, interceptors such as the 190, can barely climb at all (we couldnt get our G14's up to 30k in DGS... they just wouldnt climb anymore).
-
1) Remove flap auto-retract
2) More Italian planes
3) Have some detailed damage modeling. (i.e. if a wing has a panel blown off, there's more drag on top, therefore less lift on that wing)
-
Simple.
- Back in the game.
- Squadron full strength*.
* - ok .... "full strength" to VF-17 was 4 or more on any given squad night. It's all relative.

1) More free time to play.
2) Different variants of Mossies (tse tse, bombsight one)
3) Spit 21 perked.
4) New water graphics
5) Better rotation of maps, plus new ones.
6) Fill out the rest of the planeset. (Russian , German , Japanese Bombers, yak-3, i16, mig3. oscar, j2m3, ki-100.)
7) Revise the naval aspect. Maybe harden CV's a little.

A better one, one that I actually can DIE in. With the 234 it's just so fast the only way to die in it is if you purposly fly slow, or you somehow run into a 262.

Anyone with patience enough to climb to 30,000' in B-29s deserves to be almost invulnerable. Properly flown ME-262s are practically invulnerable. In real life the B-29 at 30,000' was practically invulnerable.
One solution would be to introduce jet stream effects that high to make hitting targets more difficult.
You dont think it would be fun to have a "show down at the hoe-down" between Mr. B and the 262?

I was thinkimg of immersion. Just seems gamey to me to pop out to the tower after landing and then pop back onto the the runway in a brand new plane in a few seconds. Plus, the pucker factor in taxiing your plane to a hangar and waiting while repairs are implemented - if you're at a front line base it could be under attack any second.
Hitech said in a thread he'd consider implementing it as long as it ended the sortie. Made sense to me-- in real life, didn't landing back at base end a sortie? If you refueled and went out again, it was counted as your second sortie of the day, wasn't it?
I think I get what you mean tho- I just wasn't thinking about it in a scoring sort of way.
-
S!
I don't want to sound disrespectful, just confused.
I'm not quite sure I understand the purpose either if it ended your sortie...there wouldn't be much difference between the system now and that one except it sounds more painful.
You would have to land, taxi to an area for repair, taxi out then take off. Seems easier to just land and grab a new plane. And I'm not sure why one would want to wait for repairs to be implemented if they can land and get in a new plane instantly which is ready to go.
I think it would also create a problem of people just hording near the repair hanger and blowing up planes as they sit there waiting for repairs...easy targets easy way to rack up kills.
I do get the point, but I just don't think it would work quite right as there are no real benefits to getting repairs besides taking more of your time up and making you a sitting target. The only way I could really see this working is if it DID NOT end your sortie, in which you could in a way extend your sortie, then people might be inclined to use it.

No disrespect taken at all, Golden. I like thinking about and discussing these proposals. In fact, your thoughts have made me realize just how damaging Hitech's suggested sortie-ending condition would be to the idea for most people. I hadn't really thought about it critically before; I was just keyed that he seemed to be considering the idea.
Immersion factor is important for me, so I was looking at it only from that narrow perspective. You've captured the gist of it perfectly right here: You would have to land, taxi to an area for repair, taxi out then take off. Seems easier to just land and grab a new plane. And I'm not sure why one would want to wait for repairs to be implemented if they can land and get in a new plane instantly which is ready to go.
Interestingly, a few people have objected to the repair hangar idea as "too gamey". These people have it exactly backwards, I think. Landing, grabbing a new plane and taking off immediately is what's gamey.
You might be right, too, about it causing congestion and creating a target-rich environment (actually, that sounds pretty good!). I don't think that many people would end up using it at the same time, but one way to ease congestion is to make repair capability available at any standing hangar on the field. I think a lot of people would just tower out though, if there was a long wait or an attack got too hot. Probably, multiple planes could be serviced simultaneously at the same hangar, the way it is with refuel/rearm pads. Might be easier to code that way.
The idea still appeals to me, though, and who knows - maybe its more appropriate for Combat Tour or scenarios.
In the end though, I think you're right - the sortie-ending condition would pretty much kill the reason to use it for most players. I think I rememebr Hitech saying that's the only way he could see coding it, so this one might be DOA.
Wonder if, instead of ending your sortie, it just costed perks?

2. someway other than AR234 to spend bomber perkies
3. Radar that differentiates between single aircraft and Bombers formation
4. Altitude indication in the radar
5. friendly gv indication on the radar screen when in gv's
6. On base status screen...% of fh's damaged
7. Base ack loses accuracy when radar destroyed
8. Increased importance of strat targets
-
1) Cockpit shake/shudder effect for close ack bursts, shrapnel sound effect
2) Damaged engine wav sound
3) more different ground textures

Spit 21? Bah. It's not a Spitfire anymore lol. What with that dangfangled new wing. Pshaw. I say bring either (or a combo of) the Seafire III, a Seafire XV (which technically entered the war, but never fought.. yea I know, I'm dreaming) and that awesome centre-line hard point for the F4U-1D which Sax has been whining about.

I think I get what you mean tho- I just wasn't thinking about it in a scoring sort of way.
I wouldn't mind seeing this, but for it to be used I think it would have to work more like this...
The main ideal that needs to be implemented into this is that you could get repairs even if the Fighter Hangers and/or Bomber Hangers are destroyed. In this way bases on the front line that have been bombed can still support fighters in some way. If the fighters already upped and perhaps intercepted the bombers but took some minor damage like engine oil or a fuel leak they could fly down, get repairs and await the swarm of fighters instead of being rend useless and have to up from an other base. Also perhaps if your kills are "landed" (In other words you would see the "John Smith has landed 2 kills in a Spit 16") but your plane would remain at the pad just with a fresh start in damage and score, similar to upping a new plane.
This is the only way I can see it being used, people won't use it when the FH's are up, but when they are down and the pressure is on to keep the base it could find a niche.
On a side note, perhaps a completely new pad could be added to the bases dedicated to repairs, this would help the congestion problem if there are a few of them around the base like re-arm pads. If they are destroyable it gives an other possible prime target for bombers to hit.

3) P-39!
>w00t :]
4) More Japanese planes.
>nah...
5) Cockpit shake/shudder effect for close ack bursts, shrapnel sound effect
>you've got some wise ideas
6) Gun sight/ gun safety on/off switch
>here's an idea for your gun safety...
>take your finger off the trigger.
7) Damaged engine wav sound - rattle rattle thunder clatter boom boom bang
