They're probably making some skins, or maps, or organizing a special event, or something.

Oh, in which case they're probably in the TA training new players, or anonymously moderating the arenas or something.

They're doing plenty. It's not always on the front page, but you can find out what they're working on in the forums sometimes.

- 410 research is currently underway (maybe even the work for the flight model?)
- Skins are being increased from 15 slots to 30 per plane. This means going over a year's skin submissions, adding in backlogged skins, reviewing new ones, removing any old ones (including old skins on the remodeled planes like A6Ms, P-40s), sending out e-mails to skinners, etc.
- It's Thanksgiving, and Christmas season is coming up. It's a time when production in most places slows down as folks spend more time with their families. Can't expect too much during the next month. If we get it, great! If not, totally understandable.
- any 3D work/upgrades to older models that is being included in these updates alongside new additions, to finish off the "uglier" planes.


So that's the stuff I can think of, off the top of my head. Not necessarily front page news, but there ya have it.

No no no.... They're all vampires. For the upcoming Twilight movie they all had the procedure done (you know, to pick up chicks?), and they're finding it hard to adjust to a totally night-time production schedule.


P.S. You didn't hear it from me!

I wondered why there were absolutely no Bishops on as of lately, must be camping out for tickets.

Early reports say it will be revolutionary

I would imagine that HTC has been busy with the following: designing the Me410, updating the M8 and/or jeep, approving custom skins, and fixing bugs here and there.

Otherwise... we can only hope that HTC is also working on the He111.   :aok

Hate to break it to ya, but the jeep is already 3rd generation!

It was released post T-34/B-24/Ki84, which is really the "new model" introduction date.
