Lol
Looks like you've added just about everything except an M1 and a bayonet.

Dont forget the maps.  I really hope the maps/terrain folders get much bigger with many more maps of diverse terrain on them.  Snow, desert, tundra, plains, really thick jungles, etc etc.

that would be interesting.

could you imagine the GV battles if TT was turned into one giant, shallow valley? :O

Looking at how AH changed in the past 10 years I have very hard time imagining what will happen in the next 10 years.

I expect to see the thing you listed in the next 3 or 4 years.

high alt and maneuvering contrails, rocket and jet exhaust trail, exhaust flames incl. for jet engines, firewalling burst of exhaust smoke
fast enough sound system for correct rate of fire sound (eg 50cals that don't sound like they're firing at 600 rpm)
historical color tracers
pixel shading
reflectivity mapping for skins
more physics
more damage model details, e.g. structural and aerodynamic effect of a tater hole in fuselage, control cables vulnerable so e.g. .303 banks are more competitive
destructible greenery and buildings
random urban areas for better ground combat
multiple roads between bases and strat and random urban areas
more terrain topology detail
submarines
FPS element for map room capture
Korean dogfighting arena

My greatest fear is that they will sell the game and someone else will manage it.

Better explosion graphics.  Debris fallout, dust, craters from HE explosions (no more smooth open country ride for fast vehicles).
Turbulence

I'm pretty sure we're safe from that.

bridges that you can destroy between towns and winter maps in the main arena's.

What's that? Water!?  :rofl

I've always been content with the navy blue/blue carpet with ruffles in it.

I still want U-boats.

Maybe ships with names on them like the road names in the cities.

Yall must also remember how much time was spent "wasted" for TOD. With that canned, progression with the ac's and gv's should go much faster.

you have your detailed water turned on?

our water actually looks quite similar, no whitecaps tho.

I always turn on detailed water, I'm always too busy crashing into it to notice what it looks like  :lol

I wasn't being serious, anyway.  :noid The water looks fine (minus whitecaps).

Subs sound cool in theory but after playing the Silent Hunter series there is really no way that they would be fun in this game. Without time compression, which obviously wouldn't be allowed in Aces High, you would spend many many hours in the sub before you could even get a shot off on a ship. I'd really love to see subs, but I don't know how they could be implemented in a fun way. I guess they could be AI controlled like the CVs and a player can take control of them whenever they feel, or maybe make them cost a TON of perks and let them spawn from CVs and naval bases. Would be cool, but I don't think it will happen.

I will reiterate what I previously posted in another thread..... Mannable Sheep.
