The WWI stuff looks amazing, but I am hoping for a shiny new P-40 in the next update.
Which plane would you like to be redone?
-
Yaks need it. Ju-88 and B26 REALLY need it. Others...
-
The German 30mm......... :bolt:
-
The G4M "Betty" bomber, Heinkel 111 and The PE-2 attack bomber could use and update too.
Oops, I meant the Albatros DIII.
Oops, I meant...never mind.
-
Yaks, B26, Ki67.
-
Yaks, B26s
-
Macchis by far need it the most, and Yaks next I would say...
-
I'm going with the Yak.. I was also hoping someone with more free time that they know what to do with could make some more skins for the Yaks..

The B-26, C.202, C.205 and C-47 are all Aces High v1.00 models, so they are the oldest in the game.
Others that need updating are, in alphabetic order,:
A-20G
A6M2
A6M5b
Ar234B
B6N2
Bf110C-4b
Bf110G-2
Boston Mk III
D3A1
F4F-4
FM2
Hurricane Mk I
Hurricane Mk IIc
Hurricane Mk IId
Ju87D-3
Ju88A-4
Ki-61-I-KAIc
Ki-67
Lancaster Mk III
LVT(A)2
LVT(A)4
M-3
M-8
M-16
Me163B
Mosquito Mk VI
P-40B
P-40E
Panzer IV H
SBD-5
TBM-3
Tempest Mk V
Tiger I
Yak-9T
Yak-9U
I also think the Ki-84 could really use a touch up on its cockpit, particularly the framing.

That might take a while..... :confused:

Wasnt the 163 just recently updated a bit?
:salute
-
The last few updated seem to have been done on a popularity basis, and that would put the Panzer IV H at the top of the list. Other top contenders would be the Bf110s, Hurricanes and A6Ms.
Want the 163 just recently updated a bit?
:salute
I thought that was just flight model changes. If it has been updated, strike it from the list.
-
FM only...
-
more german bombers :devil
-
Based on usage I would say the 110s, Hurricanes, Yaks, and Tempest should be done next. But of course if they wanna re-do the Macchis, KI-61, and the JU-87 and slip me in a 37mm armed tank killer that would be just fine too.
-
You beat me to it...... Those 4 are badly in need. And a very good call on the Mossie sir! :salute

I vote for the YAK9. would love to see the cockpit and gunsight brought up to the level of, say the F4U.
-
C.205
-
The B26, C47, and the C2s are the oldest models in the game dating all the way back to Aces High Beta....thats 10 years old! They really need some loving.
-
By usage, I think the Yak's need it first.
Would likely vote for the Macci's, second.
-
C205!!!
B26
-
I would like to see the 110s get a little love whenever HT gets around the the 111... *hint* *hint*.
-
The KI-84 needs an update to the KI-84lb. :pray
-
Does the 110 or JapCrap really look that bad?
-
I wouldn't look for any updates for awhile with them working on WWI.
-
AR234
I think its still from AHI.
-
C2, K-61 would be a fine start. Especially those cock-pits with the black holes in front.
-
P40s desperately
-
Betty Grable, my poster is worn out :D
-
P40s desperately
Absolutely, +10
-
The C.205, B26 and C-47 :aok
-
A6M series, add some new variants/gun options
-
is a depressing list for HTC to look at. Why I go a bit :mad: when i see WW1 / korea wishes. Just crack on with the updates to WW2! I don't care much for sideshows.
I'd go with mossie / Temp. The mossie needs an overhaul with some new variants. Speed corrected seeing as we have no night time, the bomber variant with all guns removed. and the Tse Tse for anti shipping 25, molins 57mm rounds.
-
Leave the Yak alone. It's fine just the way it is.
Update the Tempest, Hurricane, B-26.
Don't touch the Yak.

For me the P-40's are just a bit lacking , The A6M's also could use a little love .

I'd like some of what you're smoking! :aok

Meh. Whichever.

Hi all!
I'd like to have some better cockpits. By "better" I mean cockpits which do not hide important indications, like auto pilot lights and gun ammo counters.
In Bf-109K4, auto pilot combat trim light and cannon ammo counter are hidden behind stick. One has to move it off center to be able to see them.

How abount a Tiger like was once feared. Not the paper Tiger like we have now.

109G6!
the FM and speed and climb data are not correct!
spit 14!
option with clipped wings, this bird was in RL one of the fastest!
loadout at 190 F8, this bird got some more options
a 190A8 option: Schräge Musik!
ju 88 option with 75 mm gun!
IL2
must have a much more stable surface, in RL they never shoot it down until Hartman found out a weak point at low 6!

YAK3 109G10
HE111 for BoB a must have!

Where to begin?
109G6!
the FM and speed and climb data are not correct!
Prove it. There were MANY G-6s.. It's a generic name for dozens of different models. We have an early G-6 modeled, with 20mm hub gun and squared canopy, and short tail.
spit 14!
option with clipped wings, this bird was in RL one of the fastest!
Already updated. We don't need clipped wings on it. That would make the squirrely flight model even more spastic, and reduce it's high-alt capabilities (since we have the high-alt engine modeled).
a 190A8 option: Schräge Musik!
Look up 190A8. Then look up Schrage Musik. You're confusing one or the other.
ju 88 option with 75 mm gun!
That's the last thing our Ju88 needs
IL2
must have a much more stable surface, in RL they never shoot it down until Hartman found out a weak point at low 6!
You're wrong on that. The armor on an IL2 only surrounds the immediate cockpit and parts of the engine/weapons. It had a wooden tail, and much less stick stirring capabilities in real life than it does in AH. The reason they couldn't kill it is because 109F2s had 15mm cannons. F4s had 1x 20mm cannons. One of the biggest reasons for the development of 30mm hub guns was to kill IL2s faster. Yet, kill them they did. It was just harder to do.
addon ... 109G10
Fly a K-4, it's faster and climbs better. Or fly a G-14. Has all the same options, same speed up to 16k.

KRUSTIFIED!!

Oops, missed this:
is a depressing list for HTC to look at.
Of the 95 playable vehicles in this game, only 34 (give or take any I missed?) need updating:
F4F4/FM2
P40B/P40E
Hurr1/2c/2d
110C/110G
c202/205
a6m2/a6m5
yak9u/t
A20/A20G
B26
Lancaster
ar234
ju88
ki67
Moss
Temp
163
ki61
ju87
b5n
d3a1
SBD
TBM
C-47
M3
M8
Those need to be updated. That's 33 total. That may seem like a lot, but if you count "families" of planes, where multiples are updated in a single round, it's much less. There are 7 familes that would cover almost all of the remaining fighter planes and 2 of the bombers. There are only 5 standalone bombers (the level ones), and 4 standalone fighters, a measely 6 dive bombers (lumping C47 in there since it has no formations), and 2 GVs.
Meanwhile, they've updated 41 pre-existing "older" models to newer quality, and WHILE they were doing that they added 22 new models of varrying complexity (some simple "versions" some entirely new).
This is just since the Ki84/B24/T34 update when they started updating models and adding new vehicles.
I think they've got a lot done. If they weren't focusing on WW1, I'd imagine we'd have had 2 more "updated planes" patches already. I'm hopeful they can get the rest done fairly quickly, but they keep doing other things (like the pesky terrian updates! Foolish us wanting better looking terrain!)
[EDIT: Fixed my math, cursed "counting skills" on the blink!]
-
Krusty, I posted a complete list earlier in the thread. You left out the M16, obviously related to the M3, and the LVTs.
-
LVTs are redone, last I recall aiming their guns they have the Sherman-style gun mounts. [EDIT: on second thought I don't know now, I'd have to go check but I thought they were redone]
M16 is my bad.
I didn't really intend to repeat your list as much as compare the totals to the "already dones" and then break down the families. My bad if it seemed redundant.

The Lavochkins were redone just a couple of months ago...

krusty you should be a lawyer or a detective or something of that nature :noid ;)

My guess is will be whatever HTC feels needs it. Doesn't matter to me. I love updates, I love the eye candy, new planes, ww1, anything new we get. But no matter what they do, there will be a group that loves it, a group that doesn't care and a very vocal group that don't like it.
-
Yaks (adding Yak1,Yak7,Yak9D(or M), Yak3)
then
Mossies (adding B.IV & BXVI formation enabled)
then
Il2-M3 (adding 2.5 PTAB cluster bombs)
-
I'd like some of what you're smoking! :aok
Fly Yaks much?
I can see now. Have you seen what happened when they updated the F4U, F6F, La7, N1K2? When they introduced new a/c altogether?
You have a much more limited amount of head movement. I still think I should be able to move around a P-39 cockpit more. You have new, "pretty" canopy frames in the way.
Leave my Yaks alone.
:neener:
