Title: Thank you HTC! The B-29 is awesome!!
Post by: USRanger on July 03, 2009, 10:47:59 PM
It's worth every bit of the 400 perkies it costs, give or take.  I haven't had that much fun in AH in years.  Thank you HTC! WTG! :salute

Oh man that would be so un PC that it would never be in this game.  Too many whiny girls in this game would cry till they removed that bomb.

I would be willing to lose 1000 perks just to take up the nuke and drop it, even if it were a really tiny one..enough to level an entire base AND town and everything in the air.

Me thinks I'm onto something.  Of course, there would be very few people flying fighters as they jockey to get into position to drop one of these bad boys. :)

Oh well, here's to hoping!  :aok

Imagine dropping a nuke on a low furball  :O   But then again, in today's terms "low" means below 30k.

I think I can predict the introduction of the B29 and more specifically the nuke to the game of AH.
It will be in the very last release of the game.and the nuke will be introduced and used only on the games last day of existence to appropriately mark the end of the game.  Nothing lasts forever and at some point in time the game of AH will end as well

So if I were you folks. I wouldnt be asking for or looking forward to the introduction of the nuke into the game.
I would fear it

Purely from the perspective of someone who loves the game, loves WW2 aviation history, and loves the Boeing B29 Superfort: the people who continue to marry the nuclear bomb, the B29 and Aceshigh together are doing one thing and one thing only:  They are contributing to eliminating any chance we have of experiencing the Suprfortress in game.  I deduce that is exactly what the poster is trying to do.  Truly unfortunate.

So?   If you could clear a spawn camp, those perkies would worth it.   Close enough to an enemy base and getting kills for uppers would be icing on the cake.   

Ranja, excellent skillz on the Adobe!    :rock

Shockwave? You'd be INCINERATED by the blast at that low of an altitude.

So.  It wouldn't hurt me one bit to not ever have the B-29 in AH.  I would much rather have bombers from other nations ranging from EW-LW.

Its about time we had a B-29 thread, I am surprised it has been brought up so few times. ;)

I beleive HTC stated that the B-29 would take a lot of resources to make in game, and there was never any prejudice against including it at some point.

It would be, almost as a certainty, the standard B-29A, which was *not* capable of a nuclear loadout. Those being the B-29 "specials" (Silverplate) specifically modified to carry the Manhatten Project devices.

I wouldn't mind it in game at all, for SEA stuff, but I would like the Ki-45 "Dragon Slayer" as well with the 1945 armament options.

That is an acceptable point of view in my opinion.  Flawed, but acceptable.

Well stated Squire.  Perhaps there is hope, console gamer noobs be damned.

Agreed.
With the lazers the 17's fire now can you imagine how the 29's fire control system would be modeled?  :O

 Nice screenshot from Il-2 with mods on, which has the B29 "Silverplate" (noseart for both Bock's Car and Enola Gay) modelled with both Fat Boy and Little Boy, so not a photshopped pic ;)
