i was thinkin and its really up in the air as far as what the next plane will be...sooo i thought....why not have another vote like the one they had when the B-25 was selected. A lot of you prolly werent around then but u know what im saying. I think they should do this every 3 months but thats just me.
P.S. and ofcourse it would be for SUBSCRIBERS ONLY.
tell me what ya think :aok
-
I bump anything that gets us new planes :) :aok
-
Meteor III, Beaufighter, He-111, TU-2 or PE-2! (i would suggest some Japanese planes, but i really know nothing about them)
-
Sounds great!! :aok
I'd have to amend Furball's list (removing all unwanted competition, of course :devil) to Dewoitine D.520, Beaufighter, A-26 Invader, Meteor III, PBY Catalina, later mark Mosquito, and of course the token He-111.
But yeah, let's have a vote. Under the condition that all options are approved beforehand by me. :D

I'd just be happy to see more of the originals revised. P40's, Yaks, Lancs, B26's, Ki67's, Ki61's, Typhs, the list goes on.
-
Update the Ki-61 to turn like it should.
After that, only one plane is desired.
The I.A.R. 81c
-
:aok
-
Fix the 61.
Peace
donkey
-
add the 410 in dere :aok
-
Another vote would be a splendid Idea. But we just did get new content, are y'all bored already? :huh
-
i'd like to see the ju-88 bombing sites updated and a he-111 would be nice, it was a work horse along with the ju-88 for the German air force in WW2.
-
I say do it! The majority of people want a plane, then we'll get a plane. I always like what other people think, so let's do it!
-
<Salute> All,
The most needed:
He-111
JU-52
Curtiss Hawk 75 / P36 / Mohawk
Morane Saulnier MS406
Dewoitine D520
Mitsubishi G4M - Betty
The ones that should be otw:
Savoia-Marchetti SM79 Sparviero
Fiat CR-42
Fiat G-50
Polikarpov I-16
Gloster Gladiator
Bristol Blenheim
Tupolev SB2 or Ilyushin DB3
LAGG 3
MIG 1
Petliakov PE-2
The gaps on the planeset must be filled from 1939 onwards. We allready have a rich Late War planeset, we need Italian, Japanese and Russian planes (not mentioning the French and Roumanian esquisite machines).
-
Mine vote for planes to come soon
He-111
Ju-52
Savoia Marchetti SM.79 bomber
update to the Ju-88 (bombing sights)
Dornier Do-17Z
Hs 129 (very good for ground attack)
He 177 (the Germans heavy bomber)
Update to the stuka, maybe another varient
-
id like to see
Japan: D4Y, B6N, J2M, Ki 43, Ki 44, G4M, Ki-84
USA: P-61, A-26, SB2C, F2A, F8F (yes i know it didnt see service, just would be great addition to CV aircraft set)
Russia: I-16, Yak-3, MiG-3, Tu-2, Il-2 Type 3M (37mm instead of 23mm)
Germany: Ju 188, Do 215, Me 410, Hs 129
Britain: Beaufighter, Sea Hurricane, Swordfish (Brits need torp plane!)
Italy: C.200, SM.79. Cant Z. 1007
French: D.520
-
<Salute> all!
Do not misinterpretate me, but I would like you to think in terms of representativity of the models (numbers built).
For instance, The Hs 219 had only 268 built...The He 177, 1146. The Do 17, I would accept better, but only 578 built. ITOH, the He 111, got 5678 built...So, I would go for Do17 and perked He177 that, with the He111, would pretty much close the Luftwaffe planeset IMHO.
Although I would very much appreciate the Swordfish, I think it would be better to have the Albacore or the Barracuda. The "Torbeau" would do just fine, too...The Beau and the Sea Hurricane, although good ideas, could come later, the RAF planeset is pretty much complete if you had a Blenheim.
The Italian planes, as the Russian planes are in very bad need of new planes. But 2 or three models is all that is missing to build a highly representative planeset.
The Japanese planeset really needed a couple of new models. But bare in mind that the main gap in the planeset still is the lack of the Betty. All other models were produced so late in the war and in such small numbers...mostly for homeland defense and B29 interception...
The French planeset, non-existant at the moment, would only serve Early War setups. Amiot 143 and LeO 451 bombers, Potez 630/631 and Breguet 690 Fighter/Bombers, Morane Saulnier MS406, Dewoitine D520 and Bloch 151 fighters, all would be precious aditions to the EW planeset and to some North-African setups, but that would be it. They stopped fighting quite early.
If I had to choose, I would put the Amiot143, the Potez630, the Morane Saulnier MS406 and the Dewoitine D520 into the game and I would close the French planeset right there...
Anyway, this is not going to happen, not in two years, so...let's keep on dreaming, it's free!
Cheers,
-
My list. Short, sweet, and guarantied to make me one happy foxy :D
P-61B-15 (radar not required)
Me-410
Ju-87G
Updated Ju-88 (Maybe give us bomber, ground attack, and Zerstorer kits?)
Updated Bf-110G2 and C4
Updated Mozzie (and maybe some extra versions?)
-
The choices in MY vote:
Remove all planes but Lala and Lanc;
Remove all planes but Spixteen and B24:
Remove all planes but add F1415182235 and B293652 w/ n00k
Because anything else would be a hangar queen!
-
Mitsubishi G4M - Betty
He-111
Me-410
Ju-52
KI-100
-
whatever plane ends up being the majority of votes :aok
-
Until the entire allied plane set is finished, don't waste your breath asking or voting for anything else. The majority of people playing this game don't venture to these boards. Go look up the old threads during the last vote and see how many peeps on this board listed the B-25 on the top of their most wanted list. So go ahead and except the fact that another obscure hanger queen of allied origins will be introduced next...
-
F4U-4C
:D
-
TU-2 or Pe-2
any Japanese fighter
He-111
A-26
-
can anyone guess what three I want?
-Sik

Hmmm... Judy, Judy, and Judy?
-
anyone notice anything? the B25 came out cuz it was thw winner, the P39 was second and that just came out. i didnt notice this, but VansCrew did, and if the top 2 voted planes wer put in, then wouldnt they all be put in in order of when they wer voted out? of course, this could be false, but it is a theory worth believing until proven wrong. also, it takes more than 3 months to put in a new plane, so having a vote every 3 months would put to much pressure on HTC. just my opinon

I don't think we need it. But it's what the AcesHigh players wanted and so far HTC has gone down the list. First the B25 now the P39. If i could bet the A26 would be the next plane choice. I like the yak 3 it's a nice plane.
-
Keep in mind that the B25 and the P39 were very close in votes... perhaps that's why HTC did the 39 next? Besides, the updated planes, SDKFZ 251 and WW weren't even in the vote.

thats why i think the 39 was added, as for the other two i figure they knew GV guys would want some new toys. could make the 251 as a new gv and the WW was already halfway there in the Osti. plus they help fill CT vehicles needed.

Winnnah!

No, votes are ok once in a while, but only votes equals only US aircraft added.

I FORGOT THE PBY CATALINA
Now, about the A-26:
373mph @ sea level
8x nose mounted 0.5-in guns (originally 6 in the nose, but this was changed)
remote controlled dorsal and ventral turrets, each with 2x 0.5-in guns
up to 10x 0.5-in guns in underwing and fuselage packs
up to 4,000 of bombs
able to do 355mph @ 15,000 feet
Now, I really don't know, why I love this plane, but I do.
Lieutenant-Colonel Cliffort Erly speaking about the Invader:
"Once rid of the bombs it was a real fighter, not only were we almost as fast as any fighter, we were almost as manoeuvrable. We had studies showing that at some altitudes under some conditions, we could turn inside a Bf 109. I never heard of a fighter successfully engaging an A-26 because we had the choice. We could run away from him in the straight-away or we could turn and fight..."

Where did you get that from?

Whatever they put in is fine for me but how about working all the bugs out next time around before introducing anything. Since the last patch ,
I lose vox
have runaway engine on 2 engine aircraft
lose look up hat control on joystick in GV mode
frame rate of 3-10
I have shut down all background programs, defraged and reloadder the game with no change and no I'm not on dial up either.
Please computer geeks do not reply to this with your mind numbing solutions, these problems are being experianced by many and they are all the same problems that I have so something has to be going on at HT headquarters. I do realize that some people are not having any trouble but every patch for me has the same out come. This last patch being the worst so far in 3 years. For us that aren't computer gods this is very frustrating.

G.55 what else do I have to say?
-
He-111
-
I hope they fill in the older plane sets for all nations. (Pre 44)
When the war was rough and hot, no outcome could be seen by many.
He-111 (German)
Bomerang (Austrailian)
Ki-43 (japanese)
Re 2000 (Italy)
D 520 (French)
F2A Brewster (american, commonwealth ,ect ect)
Now its time to bring on the birds from the first years of the war.
So sick of ubber rides.

Yes, the most exciting time. Not a collective gangbanging of Germany by 3 nations. In 1943, the war was just beginning to change on all fronts- nothing was certain. My favorite planeset too. 109G2/6, 190A5, mid-model Yaks, early Lavochkins... Eastern Front goodness! :aok
