The Jeep?:lol

I remember it came out after the 24 and iirc there were others. The B-17 was upgraded for one and once upon a time htc said they wanted to upgrade the current planeset before adding more. I'd vote for more planes instead.
Easy in-game again.

p47N

109 K4

spit 8

spit 16

f4u 1-A

all in the past year IIRC

now some are "variants" of other planes, but know this, the same ammount of work in designing the FM of those planes is just as much as any "new" plane.


yes there are some "new" planes not in the set list that may be suitable for AH, but the money invested in getting detailed information on their actual desing, and FM has got to be huge.

one can not simply make a 3d model from scratch on what they "think" looks right, and make an FM based on a few numbers posted in the aircraft forums.

of course i appreciate lastest updates
but
digging  for  data of "new" planes cannot be harder then on "variants"

variants are easier to make due same or similar existing templates
so after minor changes it should be easier to introduce them to AH
is that not what we get?
also impact of this updates is much weaker for gameplay then introduction of new model of airplane, special after splitting arenas to 3 time periods

I wish i could see more new airplanes instead of new trees for 3 types of tanks we have for ground war

Actually Slash, Ramzey listed that in the post that starts the thread.

And Mustaine, how would researching the FM consume alotta money??? There's plenty of good, free Data on almost any aircraft that ever flew...It would really be a matter of deciding which to use.

ersion 2.09 Patch 0 Released November 15, 2006

Changes from previous release

    * Added a new chat lobby option at the arena selection menu. This enables you to chat with other players in the lobby prior to entering an arena.

    * Revised the 3D shapes of the F4U's. The F4U-1C was excluded from the revision as it will eventually be dropped as a separate plane when a perk ordnance system is developed.

    * Added the F4U-1A. A big thanks to Greebo for the excellent skins on the -1, -1A, and -4.
