He got it right about tanks hitting planes with the main gun. Never in the history of the world did a tank hit a flying plane except by accident and the crew never knew it or never reported it. I do not except any claims of this by the Red army.

No pilot in the real war was stupid enough to fly right down the barrel of a gun that can only elevate 23 degrees.

If you get hit by the main gun, you are doing it all wrong.

I dont think GVing is very good in this game. The terrain is very poor and dated.

But...a lot of players like it so more power to them. I dont think getting rid of GVs would help anything and would only lose more players.

if the terrain is your main concern, you're in the wrong place.

- Get rid of the vehicles. It's a FLIGHT SIM for god's sake!
- Fix the cannons!
- Fix the bombers. Remove the drones .. ONE MAN ONE PLANE.  And force them to fly at historical speeds. Take away the EZ mode bombsight. They shouldn't be able to hit anything smaller than a city from 30K feet JUST LIKE IN REAL WAR
- Fix the .50 cal guns!
- Delete the ability to switch countries or to "chat" with the enemy. That's just wrong.  Did you ever hear about brave American pilots to fly for the US today and the Nazis tomorrow? That's treason in real life, son, and so it should be here
- Where there "rooks" or "knights" in WWII? No, it was Allies vs Axis. The current "countries" are a travesty, make it like the REAL THING - Axis vs Allies, and with a rolling plane set.
- Get the dam collisions right. BOTH have to take damage, just like in real life. Don't tell me about "lag", that's just an excuse for crappy programming
- Tanks are no AA vehicles. Tank rounds should not damage planes at all!
- Fuel burn should always be 1.0
- Get the price up, to at least 50$. Preferably more.  HTC will make more money while the riff raff will be driven away. Those skilless foulmouthed welfare people are very detriment to the game, a higher percentage of successful upper class people will bring back class to the game as well.
- WWII planes had no neaon signs hover above them! NO icons and NO inflight dar! If you wanna have dar, have someone sitting in tower and give you updates.
- Fix the Spixteen and the magic Brewster! They are a parody of the real planes, they should not be able to accelerate to 400mph while going straight up!
- PERK everything but a few ENY 40 planes. Wanna fly something better than a P-40C? EARN IT!
- Killshooter is retarded. There was friendly fire in WW2, so it should be here. This one should definitely improve combat!
- B-25's did take off from CV's and B-29's did carry atomic bombs! So they should do both in this WW2 SIMULAtION as well!
- BAN squeakers. This is an ADULT game. No one under 21 has any business being here.
- Stop the silly filtering and moderation. it's a COMBAT game, and men in combat ain't polite all the time. If you can't bear it, go play some FB farm games, you %!!&§&%" ! Toughen up!

I work while injured and barely make the money I do. I don't get food stamps or any other kind of welfare, but I highly enjoy this game. I dedicate my time working on our squad site including "granted it's incomplete" a up-to-date resource index and donate my time to the AvA in hopes of building it up.

Granted I am pretty much the bottom of the social ladder, and can even be called scum... But am I really riff raff? I don't deserve to play the game?
