"Oh yes, bullets appear exactly where they hit"

 ..
 
 Even IL-2/FB doesn't do that! :) They use impressive graphics, but even so, the damage level is presented in just different layers of textures according to the damage level. Pepper a wing with MGs, and it shows the "bullet ridden" texture, pound it with cannons, and it shows "gaping hole" texture.

 I'm quite intrigued as to how HTC has done that - "appear exactly where they hit" !! :)

What codec did you guys use to get it to run?  I've tried Quicktime, Realplayer, DivX and Windows Media Player and I get the same error with all of them.  They all get a "Class Not Registered" error every time those programs try to download the necessary codec.

Well it is already implimented, but not on planes.

I'm not gonna tell you where it is, cos that wouldn't be fun :)

It's great that there will be an increased degree of eye-candy.
I'm guessing the "appear where they are hit" only applies to smaller caliber fire, while the larger are being done ala FB?
I can imagine that it would be very hard making holes in the wings "where they hit" look good enough, compared to what can be done with layers of damage graphic.

I also hope that it's not just eye-candy, but that we'll get rid of the on/off damage model we have now.

You can set whatever sounds you want in the current version of AH.  My game sounds nothing like the default sounds that come with the 38mb download.

Hopefully, while they're redoing the clipboard they'll fix it so AH doesn't keep quitting to the area choice screen on you when you scroll the map about with the mouse.
