Title: Give the people what they want!!
Post by: 1solowng on August 29, 2009, 10:38:18 AM
Just 2 make every 1 happy around here i think that they should give every1 at least 2 planes and vehicles of every category...

this is just my opinion but these are the vehicles of my choice. 1st off, im a avid bomber pilot im sugesting these planes 4 big boom

#1 the big man bomber..the b-29 superfortress,He-111 or germanys biggest bomber the monster known as the fw-200....of course the b-29 will be a perk plane...the ceiling will be about 25k and down the load 2 about 19,000lbs

#2 OMG THE CV PLANES... i might not be the only 1 but our c.v plane selection is not somthing 2 throw a party over....these 3 planes im about 2 give u will change aces high naval combat forever...the ship sinker known as the SB2-C HELLDIVER which has sunk more jap ships than any other sea plane...Second the SB2-D DAUNTLESS....and since the graphics update its became harder to find carrier groups we definetly need some plane boats like like the P.B.Y CATILINA for c.v scouting that'll definetly fix it ...even thoe the helldiver will be a perked plane dew too its 2 20mm cannons and 2,500lbs bomb load, but i can deal with that!!!

#3 Our american selection of heavy tanks is far from making alot of people happy campers...lol get it campers!!! but i think these three medium and heavy tanks will do so....my first one like a million post i.ve read will be the almighty M-18 HELLCAT,THE M-26 PERSHING or the mighty M-36 JACKSON/SLUGGER


#4 im not a good fighter pilot so ill recemend  yall 2 make sugestions on fighter planes!!!!!


#5 i think they should make a night fighter/bomber category of planes in aces high... i've only been onboard the this wonderful game for 3 months but i've seen its potentail of being the best MMO IN THE WORLD WAR 2 AVIATION THANKS AND HAPPY POSTING

Good suggestions, but consider how under-represented the Japanese and Russia plane sets are.  Those two are as important to the overall plane set as anything else.

1) The He 111 would be slower, more lightly armed and have a smaller bomb load than most (all?) level bombers in the game. It was replaced by the Ju 88.
Furthermore, the Fw 200 Condor was not Germany's largest bomber; it wasn't even a bomber. It was a slow maritime patrol aircraft with a modest bomb load.
Also, the B29's ceiling was not 25,000'.
2)The Dauntless and the Helldiver do not have a larger bomb load than the fighter/bombers available from CV's currently, not to mention they would be slower.

2) I don't know what an SB2-C or SB2-D is. The SB2C, however, was a late-war Curtis dive bomber that replaced the earlier Douglas SBD Dauntless. The Helldiver, however, was not very well-liked, and early models had significant teething and control problems. Also, the DAUNTLESS sunk more Japanese shipping during WWII than any other aircraft. In fact, the ONLY weapon that sunk more enemy shipping PERIOD than the Dauntless was the submarine. And this is including all aircraft in all theaters of the war.

Kid, let me explain this to you in the best way I possibly can.


1: The unspoken law around here about posting is that unless you have had a paid subscription at least once in the past, we don't want to hear from you because we have a pretty good idea what you are going to say.

2: Using capital letters to form an entire sentence is tantamount to babbling like a retard. You wouldn't do it in your middle school, don't do it here.

3: You really need to research your requests and think things through before you post. The Helldiver and Dauntless would not add a whole lot to the game, at all. The American CV planeset is quite large as it is in comparison to the other countries. You also need to be aware of the ungodly amount of effort it takes to create a new vehicle. Think from the perspective of a programmer and a modeler. It takes WEEKS on end to create a single plane, and even longer to get it tweaked right. Extensive research has to be done to make sure the flight characteristics are as historically accurate as possible.

4: You really ought to know WHAT you are requesting, when you request it. The FW-200 'Condor' was NOT a bomber. It was a civil air transport pressed into military service as a transport and maritime attack bomber. The B-29 would require an extensive reworking of EVERY SINGLE RUNWAY IN THE GAME in order to use it, as the ones we have are not big enough. And we really don't need it. Honestly. What we NEED are more foreign aircraft. The British CV set is limited to the Seafire and Royal Navy skins of American birds. Italy has TWO fighters. Finland has ONE.

5: You already have your squad name in your signature, please stop putting it in your post.

What others said about research and effort needed to model and program a plane. It is a lot of work. So if you prefer those planes just state I wish we had X because I like it. Most people are fine with that.

As for saying it will fill out a planeset, well needs a little more thought. Remember there are two types of game plane, main arena and special events. We have massive gaps in some of our plane sets (Japan and Russia really need more planes to round them out) and some very specific gaps in others. In regards to the MA, most prefer LW and not sure there are all that many planes that could be added that would be used there or contribute.

B-29 is out for various reasons. A-26 Invader would be a good add for MA.

For special events there are quite a few planes that are needed to fill out early and mid war planesets.

For the Germans the He 111 would be nice to have for Battle of France, Battle of Britain, Invasion of Russia, etc. It would probably be my number one pick for the Germans for special events use.

For the Russians see other threads discussing what the Russian set really needs. It definitely needs early war fighters (1941-1942) and ingeniousness bombers (Pe-2 comes to mind).

For the Japanese, again see other threads. At the very least they need an early to midwar bomber. Ki-67 is not very useful for special events set in early and midwar. Also would be nice to have the Ki-43 but not really necessary since A6Ms can sub for it. Overall Japanese definitely can use some more planes.

The British, more bombers would help in many situations. Right now you just have the Boston IIIs and the Lancaster. I can think of a slew of bombers to debate about for Special events (Wellington, Manchester, Hudson, Blenheim, Whitley, etc., etc. )

As for the Americans it would be nice to have a 1941-1943 torpedo plane.

Agree to all, except add the Il-4 for Russia. And I read somewhere that the Boston III was actuall a French bomber taken over by the british after the fall of france. Could someone tell me if this is true or not?

Post by: ghostdancer on September 04, 2009, 11:13:24 AM
They were also sold to France (in 1939 French was desperately and vainly trying to upgrades its air force quality by ordering American planes).

The French ordered the DB-7, then the DB-7A, and finally 480 of the DB-73. The DB-73 wasn't able to get to France before its fall and these planes and their production were taken over by the RAF and re designated as the Boston III.

The 4 .303s were considered sufficient early on, and they are lighter with fewer guns, making them feel more like an underpowered P-38.

I can understand that, but wasn't the A20G a midwar plane? If it was, then I woulndn't concider 4 303's "sufficient"

The Boston Mk III is not an A-20G.  Remember, France ordered them so they are most definitely not a mid-war aircraft.

Also, if the 2 7.7mm MGs in the 109s are able to take off wings, why shouldn't 4 .303s? They are both deadly.

They would be sufficient in a fighter. Not in a light bomber. They would be a deterance to head-on's but wouldn't give any real stopping power in the brief time you have to find your opponet, swing the nose over to him, and aim, before he shoots you up (or down, depending), and zooms above you for another pass. I admit you can make a luck shot (or a great one, again, depending) and damage their engine, or kill the pilot, or something that will kill them, given enough time; But it takes a while to shoot them up enough for them to explode like you get with larger caliber cannons in one shot, or after a while like with the .50's and smaller cannons.

Just 2 make every 1 happy around here i think that they should give every1 at least 2 planes and vehicles of every category...

this is just my opinion but these are the vehicles of my choice. 1st off, im a avid bomber pilot im sugesting these planes 4 big boom

#1 the big man bomber..the b-29 superfortress,He-111 or germanys biggest bomber the monster known as the fw-200....of course the b-29 will be a perk plane...the ceiling will be about 25k and down the load 2 about 19,000lbs

#2 OMG THE CV PLANES... i might not be the only 1 but our c.v plane selection is not somthing 2 throw a party over....these 3 planes im about 2 give u will change aces high naval combat forever...the ship sinker known as the SB2-C HELLDIVER which has sunk more jap ships than any other sea plane...Second the SB2-D DAUNTLESS....and since the graphics update its became harder to find carrier groups we definetly need some plane boats like like the P.B.Y CATILINA for c.v scouting that'll definetly fix it ...even thoe the helldiver will be a perked plane dew too its 2 20mm cannons and 2,500lbs bomb load, but i can deal with that!!!

#3 Our american selection of heavy tanks is far from making alot of people happy campers...lol get it campers!!! but i think these three medium and heavy tanks will do so....my first one like a million post i.ve read will be the almighty M-18 HELLCAT,THE M-26 PERSHING or the mighty M-36 JACKSON/SLUGGER


#4 im not a good fighter pilot so ill recemend  yall 2 make sugestions on fighter planes!!!!!


#5 i think they should make a night fighter/bomber category of planes in aces high... i've only been onboard the this wonderful game for 3 months but i've seen its potentail of being the best MMO IN THE WORLD WAR 2 AVIATION THANKS AND HAPPY POSTING

Oh lord... May you have mercy on the felines who have done nothing wrong.  :pray

I can understand a new forum member posting something old, or maybe new. But with sufficient/accurate facts to back his idea up.

B-29 does not have a 25,000ft alt limit. The B-17 has an alt limit of 41,000ft. and the B-29 was to be twice as strong, faster, better armed/armored and climb out of reach of Axis fighter planes.

FYB, am I the only one that doesn't understand the use of the PBY as a scout aircraft? I could see it being used as a naval bomber, from costal bases (MIGHT not be affected by hangers being downed depending on the moddel we get), but I'm pretty sure a regular bomber could scout just as well, or maby better.

Well if  you want to go somewhat historical the PBY and other Seaplanes operate from bases that did not have an airstrip. So if you were able to somehow to model taking off and landing on water you could have them available only at Ports. That is their main difference.

Oh, and yes the B-24 was used for coastal and anti-submarine work.

I want an invincible unicorn with wings that flies and shoots 25mm shells at 440s/m(shells per minute) from its horn in a straight line up to 4.5k and flies at 600mph cruise speed with unrealistic maneuverability. Oh, and I have to be the only person in the MAs who can fly it.

I can't name the movie, but I can name a TV show that references the death blossom.
