"SEA only" Features & Planes
« on: February 27, 2002, 05:55:01 PM »

HiTech has been answering questions in the MA for the past 2 days, 60% of
them are regarding planes and vehicules future releases; will we see a
"insert plane of choise" in the future?
Some planes wont make it into the MA (or wont make it soon) because they are
either too weak, too strong or too strange.
So why not model them and use them for Special Events? a b17 on steroids,
hmm was it the YP-40? snapshot, a me163 last resource interception, a
devastator torpedo run in a midway scenario, a swordfish raid against the
bismark, zeros with floating gear (forgot designation) and a long etc.
These planes are probably down on the MA plane set release list, but would
add to SEA or even CT excitment.
Another idea would be making special features which would be useless (or
almost) in the MA but could add great gameplay for a special event, im
thinking pathfinder mossies that drop a glowing chute (no idea about
programming but it shouldnt be that hard), photorecon P38s, search and
rescue Catalinas missions, timedsetbombs (ploesti anyone?) and again a long
etc.
I know it takes a long time to make a plane, and that this would decrease
the amount of planes being released for the MA, but it would still be a nice
addition on a perfet case world.
Any thoughts?

PS: Im basicaly new so if this been discussed already please either point me
to the msgs or let me know what were the conclutions, thanks!

Hiya Kisters,

Well, even though the CM's have a good, close working relationship with HiTech and Pyro, they have a plan for their business. And if we want something, we have to beg just like everyone else in the game. We constantly ask HTC for specific planes and features that we feel would enhance the special events we host, but they can't fulfill all of our requests, so we get what we get when we get it.

Doesn't stop us from asking, though! :)
