No, a B-25C of the 501st/345th BG.

I've been waiting 3 years.  :)

I'd like to see the eventual addition of player controlled paratroopers that HiTech has been talking about.

Post by: DREDIOCK on December 29, 2002, 12:00:35 PM
A 105 MM self propelled Howitzer,(unperked) a 155 would be better(perked perhaps)

Bridges over rivers and canyons (bombable),

A  Winter MA map

how about a WWI arena? Actually Im kinda surprised there isnt one already. The terrain graphics would lend itself perfectly to this.

Gimme time I'll think of more

my statment holds you guys are arguing balistics of cold guns all day long when your talking about red hot or in real life burnt out barrels.

htc knows this has known this for years that i know of.

the dont fix it or really even recognize it as a problem. i.e. they dont care. ( at least on that point )


" get over it ( as i have ) or quit "

seems resonable no anger on my end just realistic.
they dont answer about somthing after numerous posts i take the side they dont care about that issue.

i was of the oppinion that this was the fact with the 190 modeling until  ht came on and said they knew of some proven  problems. i was wrong on that count. but is was honestly the first i had ever heard of anyone at (htc)recognizing it. befor that i honestly felt they considered it correct and as such didn't care ( a year of silence on the subject helped my oppinion).

BIG thing? Not sure but here's my wish list in order:

Brewster Buffalo! (of course)  :D
------------------------
Fix VOX so it doesn't "quit" working as often as it does.
------------------------
Permasquelch List.
------------------------
Fix frame-rate hit in smokey areas.
------------------------
Ground target hardened ie: 5-6 1k bombs to hurt fuel 25%, 8-10 to kill VH, alot harder town buildings and CVs, etc... Also take 23-24 troops for capture.
------------------------
Rotating Plane set.
------------------------
Alot more maps.
------------------------
A 'visable' forward spawnpoint for GVs. A) So you can see where they will spawn from B) So they can return for "Safe Landing"
------------------------
Bridges you can bomb.
------------------------
Bases flash when enemy 5 miles out. Not the 10-15? it is now.
------------------------
Ki-84 "Frank".
------------------------
Submarines (of course add depth charges to PT boats)
------------------------

Edited: To add a few things I forgot...

I really miss the kill-streak counter from Warbirds. I know its been brought up before but I forget why we don't have it? I sure would like to see it added.
Title: What should be the next big thing in AH...
Post by: Blank on December 29, 2002, 12:44:35 PM
just something simple like the ability to select different texture depth in the video setup, 256x256, 512x512 or 1024x1024,

:)

maybe some proper weather and reduced visability or at least ke the distance that icons are visable change depending on where you are, so like clear sky d6.0, under clounds d4.0 in a cloud d2.0

:)

OK... This is a small thing....

Id like to see the Numbered Radio Channels  (ie 125, 150, 185)  to have different colors or Shading so when your tuned to more than one number channel,  You can easily identify them each other by color.    as it is now they all are the same yellow.

I would like to see them different colored or shaded.

good news, bridge objects are already in the game, we just need a terrain with them in.

How about adding something for the whiners on the radio.  If one gets "moderated" then there is the addition of.....

POOPY PANT ACTION

With this amazing new feature, the whiner will exhibit a brown mist out of the back of their aircraft to alert anybody within range that the pilot is a  POOPY-PANT and that extra perks will be awarded for shooting him down.  Also killshooter is disabled for that plane.

Yeah that's it!!


BRING POOPY-PANT ACTION TO ACES HIGH

You guys are all wrong.

The next big thing HT needs to do is find a way to make me not suck at this game.  Personally I don't think he's got what it takes to do it.

Enemy GV icons do not appear to planes.

Enemy icons - all - do not appear to GV's.

No point in having em, only puts the GV's to disadvantage.

You mean the player is the actual paratrooper???

You could also have player controlled troops as resistance in the towns!!!!

That would be SWEET!!:cool:
