Merry Christmas gents. Been jotting down wish list ideas for months, and in the spirit of Christmas Wishlists everywhere, here are some of them:
-Wish there were additional positions on the tower (rooftop or balcony), with head/views which operate same as gunner or pilot positions. Would like to be able to observe airfield ops, watch landings and takeoffs, etc. Currently the external view from the tower is hard to change the direction you're looking in, and hat views don't operate correctly.
-Change or addition to field resupply. Instead of M3, you spawn a truck convoy the follows the road to the field, with you driving the lead truck. If you go off-road, speed goes down to 10 mph, on road, up to 40-45 mph. Delivers 6x the supplies of an M3, but less flexible routes, and has no flak protection.
-Headlights for vehicles at night, search lights from towns/cities at night.
-Wish planes and downed pilots could fire colored flares. Ability for downed pilots to “join” Jeeps, M3s, or Fi.156s that have landed (pilot rescue).
-Wish we had an app or web location to go too to see MA current status: which map is up, for how long, current # players on each country, etc. Basically the “Country Status” report, made available real-time through the AH Website.
-Wish there was a way to add 3-day passes as guest accounts to my main account, for a one-time additional charge. For those with secondary systems or laptops able to run AH and some spare controls - would be a good way to introduce visiting friends or family to AH under my close supervision and/or tutelage.

Given the current numbers, I'm not sure this would be productive. If I were to check an app and see that there were 25 players in the MA, I might think it's not worth logging in. On the other hand, if I log in and see 25 players, I might also see a small fight or base take effort that seems worth joining.

I think something like this is needed if we want to see the number go up instead of down.
I still think a limited plane set for free to play would be the best for the numbers.
WWII online tried to force all their free to play players on to $4.99 a month paid accounts and quickly reversed it when they saw how much the numbers dropped.
I think there a good deal of players that would join if they could pay for free and I think most of the players with paid accounts would continue to pay (as long as the 51d was not a free to play plane)

You can do something similar with a custom arena. You have to be a subscriber to set up an arena, but you can join a custom arena with a non-paying account. Set up a couple of "visitor" or "trainee" accounts, and have them join you in the training arena or a custom arena that you set up. Good way to introduce newbies to the game.

If you hit F5 Then F8 while in the tower it puts you in GOD mode allowing you to spin 360 degrees using the hat switch.
