Here's a few things I would love to see...
1:No Icons(have it so enemy icons CAN be disabled for certain scenarios and ALL icons for certain events/tournies)
2:Added "Check Six" type calls like.."Bogie on my tail..Help!"..."Hold On,I'm on my way!"..."You're six is clear."
3:Officer's Mess Hall...I club like room where all the friendly pilots can chat while they wait for the mission to start (or lounge around after they get shot down.)PLay some swing tunes in the background with bar noises(bottles,fights..etc)
4:Group players that are in squads with their squad mates on the roster..In other words I would like not to have to put "AK,MOL,FB..etc" in player name i order to have them listed together on the roster.
5:Kill Markings:Wouldn't it be great to have kills displayed on your plane?You get in close and deep with an enemy plane and notice his fuselage has over a hundred kills?(uh oh..)..:D ...Maybe scale it down to something like 10 kills=1 marking...
What you guys think?..Add your own too.:)

:aok I like it

More CM icon control would be good.
My own pet peeve with AH 1 is when a base is porked:
I go to hanger, and pick a ride; say the 110.
I get a warning that ord is out, and fuel is 50%; and click ok to both.
I go to tower, and hit the runway button, and get a warning ord is out and fuel is 50%, WTF? Didn't I already click OK? I click OK again; and hit the runway button again.
I get a warning that ord is out, and fuel is 50%; and click ok to both.
WTF? That's two times I've clicked OK; is the FE stoopid or sumthing?
-
For kill markings, just the current streak would be better.
Two birds in one stone, cool kill markings and a streak counter.

hehe whiney seeker.
But aye, CMs do need even better controls, icons, drag and select fields for setups, AI units command.
-
You know what I think? I think that there should be AI anti-aircraft ground vehicles automatically deployed when a base is under attack. That would be really sweet; and a pain in the neck when trying to capture a base. But still, it elimates your opponents ability to catch you off guard or take a base when you aren't looking.

1: Pull Up Roster
2: Click "Squadron"
Now your roster is grouped by squad affiliation.
For further delineation ... click "country."
The only reason for a player to wear a "uniform tag" is to proudly proclaim to the world that they belong to "ThE 666th SuPrEeM LeET UBer-DeTH SnipErZ Fiter-HeVEE Boomer-ShiP GunZ" Squad: SNpRZdufe, SNpRZdweeb, SNpRZkidrock. ;)

Agreed it would be nice if it was possible to have no icons particularly in events; however, this and shorter icons have been requested many times in the past without success. One feature I noticed in the Setup tools though is the large amount of fog settings - they could make things more interesting with visibility, I think. :)

Swoop cheated - he used an old screenshot. Mine was taken online a few minutes before I posted it. ;)

Actually, no I didnt. :) I just let the full roster download before taking the screen shot........which is why we've got different numbers of players shown as in the arena.
BTW, this thread is going waaaaay off topic. :aok

The problem with this one is that you're playing on a computer monitor, instead of looking at a plane in real life --at around d4.0 or d5.0, those five pixels could be nearly anything. As a modern equivalent, professional racecar drivers claim it's more difficult to play on the PS2 than it is to actually drive the car: the pixel resolution is so small, it's difficult to determine exactly where and what things are at a glance. Don't get me wrong, in a perfect world, I agree that I'd have to identify that plane as a spit V instead of a spit IX by eyesight. And I suppose I support giving the CMs more control over the icon display properties, however, I think it will turn out that the events with no icons, or very short-ranged icons, will be a lot less popular. Sucks to enter a merge with a group of 109s that you were hoping might be 190s.
-
1-3 & 5 :aok
Mos
There could be CM icon setting option like Friendly Icons Only with d3k/d6k distance option.
How about that?
-
Lakes above sea level would be a great new addition, though I suspect it would take a huge rewrite so I don't expect to see it any time soon.

Old Beefy one,
At first I thought, we dont need that, then I read the part about music with bar sounds, and I really liked it! have that sound on a level slider so you can have it soft or loud as you like. Think of the Fun HTC could have making the brawl noises. ;)
Also, When I get too old to fly anymore, I could just hang out in the Mess Hall and chat and tell stories of the old days. "Sonny, I remember that time I got HiTech, Fester and Shane eight times in one hop... I was in my trusty P51 Spitfire....." lol
Maybe when you click Mess Hall it takes everyone to a building at HQ?

Bomber Contrails
saw on DW the other day an interview of B17 gunners who stated they had fighters sneak in close by flying the contrails in
have to be a thick/large contrail to hide the glowing icon - cloud material - guess that'd hit the fps
-
-Customisable fuel tank switching timing and order, and if not completely unfeasible, the option to fill certain tanks only, and/or by as small increments as possible.
-The replacement/addition of stall shudder by the plane when nearing stall, instead of the horn.
-The possibility to map two axii to one function, for example if you want the js twist for small rudder movements, and the pedals for large ones.
-Icons something like in WWIIOL, it sounds pretty neat. And the said CM option to turn off icons altogether. And adding planetype+name in the iconmode cycle.
-More ordnance types for the planes that had much more of them than we have, like Pzblitz or SMuzic for the LW, NS-37 for the Il2, etc.
-A larger sun flare corona, the one there is is good, but it'd be better if it had another wider outer glare.
--Map icon+text color added to color setup.
-Tracer shell and and quantity/placement in the chosen ammo belts.
-That promised post-flight .txt statistic summary.
-Perked extra goon loads, they could carry 20 troops, I heard.
-The possibility to brake off parts rather than insta-towering at low speed, you can drag the wingtips and bounce the tail almost as hard as you want <200mph, but >= 200 you suddenly die.
-Hopefully, more gradual damage will affect the FM gradually as well, so that you don't fly perfectly if your strainer-plane is about to fall apart.
-
More telemetry in the film viewer, like AoA, etc.
-
plz add them:
ki84
ki100
ki61-II
ki44
ki43
j2m3
h8k2
g4m
that's it!
-
Please add 8 Japanese planes in one patch? I'm all for increasing the IJ planeset but ... :eek:
At least throw a B-25 in the middle of it all to reduce the shock. :D
-
At the moment, when you bail and are on the ground, you can move around.
How about taking this functionality and using it to add a troop as an option from the hangar. Just like with a b17, instead of leaving the base with only one troop, you could leave with a squad of 10 or so, who would try to stick close to you , thier "leader" just as with the buff groups.
These troops would then be armed with a light machine gun as thier primary weapon (good against other troops) and some sort of anti tank / building destroyer secondary weapon , like hand grenades or private ryan's "sticky bombs". Perhaps you could give them a range of armament options.
If you then allowed these troops to be dropped from a c47 or a troop carrier, you could have a blast!!

Until we get binocular hemishperical VR goggles with 5000x5000 resolution in each eye, which instantly follow rotational and translational movement of your face, icons are more realistic than no icons. IMO. However, there may be a better way of implementing icons. For example, icons change the amount of information they present as the distance and aspect of the target plane changes. And icons disappear behind clouds. Maybe it already works this way, I haven't played AH yet. :)

Cool idea. Even better would be only the streak displayed, as someone else mentioned above.

The problem with vox is that it is only suited to scenario play--where the situation is closer to how a military organization might operate. Text is better for an arena. So I agree with the original poster on this one. It would be cool to be able to set up more "transmission macros".
Actually, the ideal arena (and maybe also scenario) solution would be voice recognition for each FE, so you could speak messages and they would be translated to text for transmission. That way you get the best of both worlds--easy transmission without sitting around typing (or using the mouse), and easy reception from multiple radios, including a log so you can scroll back to what you might have missed. But this is more for AH4 or 5. :)

Yes, I agree.

Cargo added to the damage list.
Released cargo damageable by every weapon, not just bullets.
LVT(2)s don't rotate entirely when only the pilot's pov (gunning most likely) rotates.
Turbulence.

I want a D9 with Alizee nose art.

raptor what he means is if someone clears your six after he gave you the call he can quickly notify him of that...
-
A "Heads up!" button which warns all the planes in visual range OR the planes in visual range which are on the same mission. Or maybe only in the direction U'r looking at?
Just to warn if you see a threat that is an instant treat to your buddies and you do not have time to write a warning on text buffer.

Squad member limits Increase from 32
Our squad come up with this alot being over 32 guys in squad and wonder who to put out to put someone in then take another out cause that one comes back in another week, the squad memeber shuffle, How come we dont UP the limit to being in a squad.. for ours 32 is busting out of our seams..lol why cant it be changed to like 50 or more , is this still going to be a factor in AH2 also. Just wondering
-
strange that you'd have such a mass of a squad, but the more the merrier..
better tracers for the tank rounds, easy thing to do.. (http://www.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=100783)
Cockpit gun shaking adjusted to be proportional to the guns' caliber.
AAA guns made to obey law of physics, so they don't instantly rotate to target.
Add the O'Club wall textures to the ones we can submit, like plane skins, repainted :)
-
Add more sound slots to the explosions module, but make it default to a single sound file, so unless we add third party sounds, it stays as it is. So we can, if we want, differentiate all explosions, like rocket impacts and CV 5' explosions, just like we're allowed to do with different model engines etc.
Different sounds across the engine power positions and damage conditions.
-
The KI84 would have to be porked or perked.....Think you hear whinning about the spit and LA7 now....if they give us the KI84 you ain't heard nothin yet.
-
All joking aside, I would like to see some French planes sometime in AH2. I don't see a reason to leave them out like this, as they played a part in the war.
I would also like to see more Italian planes, and a fighter Mossie.

I'll second Moochie's request, would make using the map while in flight a whole lot easier.

Realism this and realism that.
New icon options could be anyway usefull in SEA time to time.
Try ones with your friends FRIENDLY ICONS ONLY team fighterfight in h2h room. Take some historical plane setup like BoB, FinRus etc.
Its a thrill 'n blast
:)
-
cc it's a nice purist idea but doesn't work in practice, because once you've played the game enough, you can be proficient enough at everything to handle such a (relatively at least) small unknown.
And as soon as there is a small possibility something is useful/wanted, you might as well make an option so as not to limit the player's possibilities.

1. Seperate the Cruisers from the Carrier fleets.
This is always been a MAJOR PAIN in the kazoo as someone will always try to drive the fleet up on the beach to shell it and in turn loose the CV. With seperate CA & CV fleets the Cruisers could go in close and shell and drop the LVT's to capture a field or port while the CV's stand farther out and launch a/c out of imediate danger.
2. Make the 5" guns on the Destroyers manable for air defense as they are on the CV.

I just want the magnetic compass to rotate in the right direction....It's always been backwards.

1) This is already possible, but with a twist. In the next FesterMA map there will be lone cruisers. They will be able to move separate of the CV. Fester sees them as being used to hunt and destroy CV Groups, but could also be used as you describe.
2) I don't know about you, but I have been able to sit in the 5 inch guns on the Cruiser.

I would like the Fuel gauge to work on GV's This way they would run low also and if you prok a gv base and it ups it would kill there fuel level to go camping and such,
and the rearm pad is better than going to hanger or upping a m3 drop supplies then back to tank.. that is a good isea also
but then they wold have to install rearm pads on all bases's and all maps that i would think would take months to do.. Dont know if there is an easy way to do it

Tank turret rotation control from driver's seat, by the rudder?
Control of the remaining flap when the other's been shot off.
The old turret coaxial, haven't heard of anyone getting it to work anymore.
Smoke for the Tiger and PT boat?

I would like exact coordinates for the cruisers, shore batteries, etc... If there was a gv war going on and needed artillary then someone gets in gun, hits W then gv give their location, and how far they think enemy is (or drive a little and get into trig and all that but would be quicker to guess). Then when the ship gunner is clicking for a place on map a little highlighted number shows up next to where his curser is (Ex: 456N,728E).

I love the kill marking idea. Base it on streak and make it 1=1.
b-24
b-25
b-29
the original mustang. I know it's not called a mustang. The British one with the hispanos.
Spit-IX with the clipped wings
the idea about making the remaining flap work after the other was shot off is more realistic, but the added lift from that side would make you roll; and the added drag would make you yaw. it would be easier to land low and fast
a combinationion of stall horn and shudder
a squad should be able to have distinguishing paint(besides the
pinup)like a red tail and so forth
how about bullet holes on parts of the airplane that were pinged and not blown off
different engine sounds for every airplane would be more realistic
permanent .showjoin 0
more tanks
all AH lacks now is submarine warfare...that would be awsome.

1. That is in AH2.
2. We have that right now, if you download a sound pack, like Mitsu's.
-
the thing about the flaps is it's bugged at the moment, you can't retract one if the other's been damaged.
-
I didn't know the flap thing was a bug. Even if it worked it would be useless.
That's cool about the bullet holes in AH2
I don't think that the mitsu sound pack sounds realistic. These airplanes twelve cylinder engines and the mitsu sound pack sounds like a weedeater...lol.

I was running out of room for clipboard files in AH1.
Please add room for more clipboard files in AH2. Judging from the number of different airfield layouts, I'll want room for lots of extra files.
Thanks.

It was called the Mustang. Mustang Mk I to be precise. What it wasn't called was the P-51.
-
you misunderstand, Merlin:
Either a flap is undamaged, and works normally,
Or it is damaged, and if you had your flaps lowered before the time they were damaged, the other, undamaged flap will not work normally: it stays where it was at said time.

We should have F-35 JSF, Eurofighter Tyhoon, F-22 Raptor and SU-47 Terminators! LOL

make GVs collideable against each other, like for buildings now; no more walk-thru pintle PKs.

(An) intermediate color(s) for partially damaged items on the damage list.
A way to plot waypoints on the cb map outside of missions, for personal notes, own navigation or predicting vectors based on dar dots movement, for example.
-
I think they ahould make it so that we can modify th game. Like make our own airplanes or vehicles and add them so that we can play with em offline :D :D :D

Separate wounds for pilots and gunners.
personal one, but honestly worth it, keep wing tanks on the 152 for 75 and 100% filling, like for the 51D's Aux.
-
because the new damage model shows holes in the plane, will the pilot have a big hole in him for pilot wound? or will it get into blood and gore.
-
:lol :lol :lol :lol
THis is just me but i would like to have some blood n gore...
:D :lol :lol :D
-
You can barely see the pilot (even with external views), let alone any bulletholes that might be in him.
-
External sounds for the GV guns, separate if possible.
-
Here's an Idea I've been kicking around. Whenever you see someone vulching a field and racking up 7, 8, 9 kills, set it up to where if you shoot him down you get a little ace perk point bonus. Nothing huge, just maybe half the perkies that he's built up. Oh yeah get rid of that dammed "don't move controls so rapidly" msg.

At the very least make it sensitive to pitch control only. I get tired of the game killing me from aiming shots on the other axises.

a way to set separate salvo values
a button to salvo everything at once.

My wish would be custom plane skin we can add.

I know I've mentioned this before, but the compases both in AH1 and AH2 are reversed. Hoping this can be fixed as this seems like an easy thing to do.

Apart from aircraft the only thing I'd really like is more detailed terrain like that of WWIIOL. That terrain gives a real sense of height.

Hey ... I found the joke funny. Picturing the guys on the range tweaking those rocket rails for convergence and all. Ok, Joe ... fire `em all off and lets see how tight a grouping we have.
It was funny. Even funnier if you were being serious. handsomehunk :D

miscommunication?

Hey ... you started it. I was just laughing at the funny you made ... whether you actually meant it as a funny or not. A few other funny suggestions:
- heat-seeking missles
- 0/0 ejection seats for all aircraft
- flir
- vulcan cannons
(cue laughtrack) :lol :aok :rofl

Well hell ... if IL2 models rocket convergence then that cinches it. :D

I dunno, before I played these games I knew niet about anything aviation besides the Black Sheep on tv. I figure it's not rocket science to calculate them going one way or another, so if that game lets you control so many other variables that I know for a fact were decisive, of how to better survive and/or kill the other guy in a world war, why wouldn't this one be realistic?

How about multi monitor support? :) I'd love to get that clipboard out from in from of my face and onto my second monitor. The Chat buffer would be great also as then you could have it large all the time.
-
Late on this thread but I would like to see a penalty in this game for death - anything at all - but something significant enough to at least make someone think for a moment before they made that clearly suicidal attack.
-
Ummmm ..... have you read the description of TOD yet? :D

How do you change the size of the chat buffer?

The key above the Tab (` on mine) toggles the size of the chat buffer. :)

make GVs collideable against each other, like for buildings now; no more walk-thru pintle PKs.
I presume you mean friendly GVs? That would cause problems as they spawned, which is why we don't generally have Friendly Collisions enabled. It is occasionally turned on in Special Events, but even then it has to be done after everyone has taken off. :) Enemy GVs do collide as far as I know.

Yep so does mine - but I noticed the AH2 zoomed in mode is a lot bigger than AH1's
-
I think I saw that once a long time ago Flossy, but in general (99.99999%) they dont collide, you can see many guys just walking their hull MGs up to the enemy GV's pilot seat and killing them that way, or just seeking shelter when they're in the middle of a group of enemies, etc.
Mission dar dot color, as it is they show up as the regular country color.
A separate buffer for mission ads and recon info would be neat, but it's probably not so feasible..
-
.quicker damage to the pilot while one fire, instead of nothing until sudden death.. but they've probably thought this out and've made their choice as it is.
.An option to leave the loadouts on the mission flights unlocked, so you don't have to make multiples of the same flights just to vary the loadouts.
.broken GV tracks just stop working rather than dip the vehicle a million degrees.. as it is (I) nearly always get 'crash'es when landing damaged on own soil with no enemies in range.
-
3:Officer's Mess Hall...I club like room where all the friendly pilots can chat while they wait for the mission to start (or lounge around after they get shot down.)PLay some swing tunes in the background with bar noises(bottles,fights..etc)
I've been hoping for this all my live! Since I get shot down alot..
Well it would certainly be fun to lounch abit before starting a mission.
We could make the messhall inside one of those Nissen huts (you know...the barracks) And have online games/chat there :)

Agreed it would be nice if it was possible to have no icons particularly in events; however, this and shorter icons have been requested many times in the past without success. One feature I noticed in the Setup tools though is the large amount of fog settings - they could make things more interesting with visibility, I think. :)
One time on H2H the grounds altitude was so high that the map designer used clouds to imitate fog which was interesting...
was anyone else there or have been on that map?

So what happens when someone blows it up? lol

1) I don't meen to be a smart arse with this but..... any chance you all could give EA 10 bucks and Buy the Air Warrior Name and call AHII, Air Warrior / Legacy, Air Warrior/Aces High, Air Warrior/Legends or something to that effect just avoid giving it a number. guess I miss the old Air warrior and she was the great grandmama of all WWII MMP flight sims! 8)
2)more air craft like ju87, ki84, jm2, p39, a26, p80, sea huricane, whirwind, Beaufiter,one of the carrier british torpedo bombmers, and mabey even the b29 if you give a beach of a flight model specially at take off.
3) more squad org. option group/squadron/wings ect. so you cram alot more people into a group allowing subgroups with special abilaties such as indipendent nose art for subgroup and wingman/role assingments and such.
4) more to the officers club such as actually music from the radio with mabey 3 difrent song or song groups big band / swing / classical. mabey add customisable charictors/avators for people add a mini game such as texas holdem or poker where players could bet there perk points (5 or 10 point max bet) or play against the house (black jack).
5)more graphic controls such as aircraft, cockpit, ground object, field objects, and terrrian detail. as well as object visual ranges. this way I can see the important building on a base at long range in low detail but not every thing else such as ground object (farms) while keeping medium terrian detail and high aircraft detail with medium cokpit detail. this would really help with the frame rates for lower end systems as well as poeple like my who like to crank up the FSAA ect. (I get about 60 fps at tower with defualt details and 6x fsaa 16x af 1024x768x32).
6) a detailed newbi guide with BCM ACM dive bombing and level bombing guides as well as the use of your aircraft/vehicle/ship/gun/boat guide.
7) Give the game some nestalgia feel to it (sheep/40's era decore)
8) new arena's such as a MA (Main Arena) PTO (pacific) ETO (Europe) as well as combat SE and training arena's
