Non-Battle (Supply / Transport missions)

I'm thinking maybe a scenario where a C47 carries fuel/ammo to ground vehicles that have run out of fuel or need fuel/ammo to advance on the next target.  This would depend on the type of terrain and base layout in use I guess but would be fun in the gaming sense.

Lephturn, up high at 20fps it counts for nothing when the frame speed drops and drops until planes strobe past like traces from a drug overdose. However, if a player has expertise, he can at least land on the runway at 5fps without having "the common" computer assisted cheat on. But if a player is inexperienced, I am certain the slow processor speeds would prevent a simmer from learning. I agree, a long learning curve is most desirable, however, learning is easier when given credible examples and not flashing uncertainties. As for Ghost42, I would not suggest he give up on commanding respect in the air sims, but to accept defeat and continue to learn. Sometimes, but not often, a good simmer will give you some excellent points to increase your survivability which exceeds the rhetoric some trainers will feed out.

Good idea ghost42 . Many times I would just like to be online flying after a hard day at work etc and that sounds like fun without the extra strain . Right now I man the CV 5 in gun when tired but still want to be online . Or I did the gooning too  

Just remember some of you , that even if some practice till "hell freezes over" they won't get only so good . Having to fight a 3D chess game with guns ain't for everyone (as in too many things going on at once and overload comes into play ) and this way like ghost42 says lets them have a important and usefull place to help win the war .

I get it ( your point) makes perfect sence to me . Hopefully HTC will give it a try too ,

cheers spro

Yes it would be nice to have something alternative like that to do when you want to be on line but not in the middle of a fur ball all the time.
