Title: Priorities
Post by: caldera on August 23, 2012, 09:55:16 AM: One of these is not like the others...

Bringing the old plane set more up to date will bring in more customers than any new map or strat system will. HTC spent a lot of it's time on revamping and adding ground vehicles lately, along with new GV controls and icons. Better plane graphics (even a newer P-51 - barf) would generate more interest and cu$tomers. The flight modelling keeps people interested but the graphics help draw them in. Shouldn't HTC concentrate on its bread and butter?

Talk amongst yourselves.

I'm sure HTC are working on it as we speak.

One good thing about the older yak model is that you can see thru the back glass as if it was nothing. I believe that will change with a new model, along the lines of what happened to the la7 when is was remodelled.

No he can't. :neener: Well, he did vulch me once.

The Yak-9T was included to show the disparity of graphics quality versus the other (basically non-lethal) contraptions, in an attempt to request that remodeling efforts focus on things that actually fight.
