AH is spending all this time and effort on water, we don't fly in the water. How about realistic weather , with clouds? Wind that is based on real weather.

Is there some manner of eureka moment when someone reads one thread, they want to have an equivalent one of their own :headscratch:

Really, there is a thread asking for wind and weather, weather like rain showers and realistic clouds. Sorry, didn't see it before I posted , if it exists.

try to be original
I like my 60 frame rate instead of 30 thank you. :D
also you might try a better graphic card. that's where most of the new graphic features will be processed . You will still get your 60 FPS.

You posted this in the big cheese thread an hour ago :old:

I am against turbulence and realistic clouds because virtual "realistic" weather is probably very annoying IMHO. I tried weather effects in IL2 1946 couple of times and couldn`t stand it. Flying a fighter in turbulence there felt similar to the pt boat swell effect we had a while ago. The effect could be made a bit more random, but you can bet it happens just as you get your sight on the enemy. Think of a low twisting evasive Fw190 that is all over the place and add some random bumps that throw your aim off some more. I know what I would be like :furious. In reality turbulence is more fun because you can feel the aircraft move. In a simulator it is just a twitching screen and it is not that thrilling.
Adding clouds could create situations where you can sneak up on the enemies and force them to fight with nowhere to run. At the same time there could be situations where your enemies see you first and turn away before you see them or they sneak up on you and shoot without you even seeing them, so no "real fight". More hide and seek, but I can live with that.
If realistic weather should come I wish there would be a realistic forecast available so that I could see before logging in what the weather will be like in the game and decide if I want to play that time or not.

The the adoption of Shader 3.0 being required to play AH it is entirely possible that we'll see optimized weather effects that can be used by HTC with little or no frame rate impact.

There is a big cheese thread??? I was in several different threads where different subjects were discussed, this room however is for the purpose of requesting changes to the game by making a wish. All other rooms are just discussions.

wind and turbulence should be saved for fso and scenarios. Moving, random, and dynamic clouds on the other hand is a big winner for me. Of course, a nice weather forcast or current cloud condition information would be a very much appreciated touch.

"i like this game dying because some people want the airplane to jump all over the place without landing a single shot"
you want to simulate weather making your airplane jump all over the place just dont calibrate your joystick and pedals. it will be the same thing.

You must really hate change or have a really terrible computer because when anything comes to eye candy you start crying and making utterly stupid suggestions. We can see that a pure dog fighting arena will NOT get people to play (cough* WW1 cough*). Also War thunder while however crap it may be in terms of flight model gets way more players than aces high because of immersion and eye candy.
You know, I never see you in game. Matter of fact half of the people on this board are not in game ever. Yet they always have to put in their two cents and how ramble on about how change is bad and eye candy is for noobs.
I say we need this in game:
*windows that are not perfect, put some scratches on them it makes it more realistic.
*Some shaking when you start the engine up
*Weather which includes rain/snow/wind
*Some scratches on flight instruments. Not so they can't be seen but to add to immersion.
*Better sound engine, 3d engine placement, flak that actually sounds like flak, a default sound pack that doesn't sound like garbage, etc
*Better lighting (I believe this is already getting done).

olds442,
Players don't like it when unpredictable things change the outcome of a fight. They want the fight to be skill vs skill. Turbulence is likely to have a very, very poor reception.
And to cut off your objections, yes, my PC can handle it just fine.

No one said it was unpredictable. A set wind layer in the MA is rather predictable. Weather could just be cosmetic in the MA.

I was referring to the turbulence request, something to bounce you around unexpectedly. When we had the hard wind layers in the MA back in the old days the complaints from people who had shots spoiled by the sudden change in wind direction/speed were pretty intense.

I have a faster computer than the average ah player. I can play with all eye candy on and still have full frames. I play only every other week due to my work schedule but last 2 or 3 weeks I havent played much due to a work injury to my leg and cant use pedals. also my throttle went out and I am holding for when the x-55 rhino finally goes on sale.
I have been playing this game for about 7 or 8 years without interruption under several names. but I have been semp for the last 5 or so years.
have you tried some of the sound packs? and perhaps better speakers? as for weather during ww2 airplanes didnt fly in bad weather simple because they couldnt see crap. that's why I object to it as for the airplane being all over the place due to turbulence dont you think it would just cause more frustration and cause people to quit the game?
I remember playing aw with a force feedback joystick and while being cool the first 2 or 3 days I couldnt hit crap. I was one of the best bombers regularly ranking in the top 10 and finally had to give it up. this is what it would do in the game.

Which is funny given we have those layers now, yet you see no one complaining about it.

Not sure they are implemented the same way.
One of the P-38 guys was constantly upset about it. Don't recall if it was Ack-Ack or Citabria though.
