Could some one please say how htc chooses which item to have from the wish list , how do you create a poll , ive looked through the threads and it says htc dissabled all the polls :headscratch:
-
they implement all the wishes in two weeks tops. that has been pretty much the standard since i got here. but you have to realize some wishes are pretty much just that wishes. htc is not the fairy godmother that can grant everybody's wishes all the time :salute.
and you have to realize that just about everything that you can think of has already been wished several times before. and it takes some time to add things like airplanes/gvs. it's not just copy and paste from a Wikipedia picture. the art and modeling has to be done and it takes a while for it to be created. i have been wishing for the a26 for the past 5 years and many other airplanes have been added but I am still waiting for mine.
so basically if it is a good idea then it's two weeks. for a not so good idea perhaps 3 or 4 weeks.

Once in a while HTC does a poll. The last poll choose the Me 410. We may see that later this year. Player created polls are a waste of time. You can't do anything to get a certain aircraft added next to Aces High. It doesn't matter how often it's requested or if 20 people give it a "+". The wishlist is just a list of ideas. Many of the ideas have made it to Hitech's list of things to do someday if possible or when he has time. It can take years before you see an aircraft that was requested on the wishlist make it into the game.

so that caption at the bottom each players thread history polls created , and votes etc is not valid :salute
-
dont worry about it david. most of your askings arent nearly close to anything we need in the game not to mention your lack of specs on your "wishes"
-
some may make it dont give up , the concept is there but some ideas are prob a bit too much to ask for :salute
-
IN before the lock/move.

Players cannot create those polls. Votes cast are for the polls HTC posts.

David, just to give you an idea. Vehicles could take more than a month for the art work and modeling to be done to add just one vehicle to the game. Planes take more than three months for a single plane. An addition to something in the maps or game play could take over a year to incorporate into the game.
Keep in mind these times are based on if HTC has nothing else going on, which is never true. HTC is always working on something for the game. The wish list is just that, a list of things people would like. From what I've seen in the years I've been here less than 10 percent of wish ever make it into the game.
Relax, play the game and have fun. When new stuff comes out, have fun with it.

ok i wont put any more ideas just modify the ones you asked for in existing threads, i know some of the aircraft must take ages , ive been looking at the way that they do the artwork , its really good , but you know those flying sharks we had on news eve a few years ago those must have taken a long time to make ,just for one night, but some of the things you guys have asked for seem to be easy to alter , like the perks for loyality issue , which would solve many problems . :salute

david... do you even *play* the game, i.e., pay for a subscription? if so, how long now? (if you haven't - then stop reading this (and posting on the boards) and either pony up or hush up.)
As you can see, some people have been here for *years* - if you're this new, it'd be a good idea to basically just learn more about this game and it's dunamics and techinical aspects before spamming the boards in hopes of something sticking.
The more you do what you're currently doing, the less people are going to give you even less consideration beyond what you're already seeing.
Enthusiasm is okay as long as it's not accompanied by ignorance. Enthusiasm + ignorance = annoyance, which you are rapidly becoming. Just sayin'
-
Just because folks wish/ask for it doesn't mean HTC will do it.
If it's a good idea, they'll think about adding it. Many many features you find in-game now were once wishlist requests. If you actually have an idea, post it. If not, don't go searching for an idea, JUST to post. Don't spam it. Lord knows there's enough posts in there to last a lifetime. Think of it this way: Try not to dilute it so that if/when you actually have an idea, people pay attention instead of ignoring it because you've posted 10,000 already (for example).
-
I've been begging for the Me410, Panther and g.55/1 for years now, as well as certain others like the entire graphic updates for the c202/c205 (recently).
If it gets added, then its just one more toy to play with, otherwise I just wait a few months and bring it back up :)
So.... He-111 in 2 weeks?

Wow....that's 3 mins of being a jerk that Shane will never get back. If he's new, he damn sure loves it now....worth every bit of 14.95 a month, lol?..just sayin

First, it has to be posted to the Wish List. Then it has to be vetted by the wise Council of Flamers whom shall dismiss your post based on a typographical or punctuation error, then repost your same topic a week later after it's off the active topics board. This thread will then be hijacked and turned into a discussion on whether anyone actually died from Allied Chocolate drops during the war or why a crap Fiat should be added before an awesome PBY. Invariably this will circle back around to why U-Boats will never be added into the game, someone posts a screenshot of sheep doing silly things, and Skuzzy locks the posts due to excessive rule violations.
...and that's how a Bill becomes a Law.

David has an active account hes been playing this game for awhile
his puter giving him troubles thats why hes on the forums now.

thats very funny i never post anything about allied personal being poisoned by choclate drops , and i never put pics of sheep doing funny things , my posts are relevent to the war effort and i do pay , my posts are fairly good , apart from the flying wing which i regret , due to not having all the information available , now i think its the worst post ive put on bb :salute

Spamming wishlists or data copied from Wikipedia does nothing to get something added. HTC is well aware of the aircraft in service at that time. They have extensive and detailed resources on such things. What is most likely to get implemented, or at least considered, is a well thought out idea that is presented in a considered and mature manner. Occasionally this can be about a unit, but most often it is about a gameplay function.
Most of what happens in the Wishlist forum is just shooting the breeze between hobbyists.

Shane, you might want to fix the spelling in your "Perfect" Quote. You misspelled the word "people".
"Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.
I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.
I'm not perfect, but I am closer to it than you are."

David,
If what Matt says is true about your computer giving you problems, there are many folks that might be able to help you sort it out, unless something is broken. PM me if you like and I would be glad to see if we can get you headed back to the virtual skies.
As far as your requests go, Skuzzy is king here. Notice he has stickied a list of forum rules for us all to read. Although, we have these rules, it doesn't mean that we shouldn't try and exhibit some sort of self control in our posts. For me this means that I try and think it through, especially before creating a new thread.
However, your title, How does HTC work ....... hit close to a post of mine, asking if it would help to ease the number of repeat wishes for new models if they had an up and coming list with no release date just a probable "yes it is in the works" list (sticky would be most effective).
Then, if a member of the forum continued to spam they would be subject to more harsh warnings and actions by the moderators. As it is, pretty much as stated before here, posts will be subject to ridicule, thread hijacked, some humorous and not so humorous analogies and eventually Skuzzy brings his lock and looses another precious chunk of his life because the lot of us are not able to exercise enough restraint.

he's not a new guy. he's been around for a while. he mentioned it in another of his posts. he's a subscriber but not playing right now due to puter problems. he also mentioned it in another thread. and he already understands the difference between helping the game get better and being a pest as he also indicated that in another message.
so shane is right on the money with advise.

After years of careful and tactful, constructive and progressive dialogs and accumulations of hard facts and data in a central thread on the wishlist forum... and then, maybe, HTCs will choose them for consideration or inclusion on a consumer poll. Don't tell us you're giving up or starting to get tired of waiting already? :D
-
I wonder if HTC doesn't have a dartboard on the back of his office door, where each number would be - is a photo of an aircraft, GV or change in the game.
Before he decides, he brings in skuzzy to spin three times and fires off......
Think about it - Me410, 8.8cm flak and Storch are due next.....
next up: He-111, D.520 and Boomerang :D

hi chilli my motherboard had a problem i have 2 sata hard drives and the one connection into the mb is broken , so i bought new motherboard and forgot to plug the fan in on my processor , and installed the drivers for board fired it up , and then i could smell the burning , around the radiator , i then realised what i had done , but i think ive cooked my processor now ,as i get to windows start page and it reboots , it seems that it is in a loop , ive tried , lots of things through bios , and i think that i have either damaged the processor or bios has been corrupted , ive tried updating bios , and tried repairing windows via recovery console , and it says that there are some files missing , i have not got the origanal xp disc i had with the machine so i installed windows pro and then upgraded to windows home with the service packs , and it is still in a loops , i did have a problem last year with the intergrated graphic card , so i bought a new one , and all seemed fine untill the processor got cooked , do you think hardware or software probs , i have this old pc , but its not fast enough to run the game it hangs all the time , and the more players that are on , it slows terrible , it has got to the stage now that if i fly a mission i get dissed, as it freezes , which makes me so frustrated , ive tried removing things like trcers shadows etc , to see if that would speed this machine up, but that does not work this pc has only a p4 in 2.66 ghz, 1022mb of ram and intergrated gragh card which is only 94 mb :salute

how can a dart match be fixed , throw a dart get the wish and hey presto we got flying wings , cant wait to see them flying over your base just before we take it :aok

We aint getting flying wings. It's just the reality of the situation. Expect a 1946 arena followed sometime later by a cold war arena followed by some other stuff followed by prototype weapons arena. But when we do get a drawing board arena I got first dibs on captaining the Habakkuk.

Check your PMs concerning MB and processor.
