Sure. I would fund the BoP sequel. No doubt. I'd throw in a few badass servers 2... And redecorated the planet with new fiberoptic broadbandcables.
How do I get my hands on those millions?!

If I had £150 million I wouldn't need to play videogames for entertainment.

I would, and I'd be at Gaijin's office for every major milestone making sure they add all the cool sh*t we all want, while having a simple arcade game on the surface for the masses. Investment FTW :)

Definitely this. Personally my planes of choice would be the glorious Yak-3 (with a real Klimov VK-105PF-2 engine and everything) along with a La-5F, P-40B, and I-16 type 10 (maybe a 24 like in BoP, but 10s were more stable with their gun platform of just 4 MGs.)

I could go on, so I'll just stick with those I've mentioned. :cool:

no sorry. i wont.

i started by gettin me a million dollar house. i allways wanted to have my own place the way i want it. without renting it just build it. i am a big fan of those overhauling programs on the TV that rebuild/restore old houses and sell them off with allot of proffet.

then i went to New York. see the city, go on a shopping spree like there is no other staying in the Hilton' or Ritz for 2 days or so and see and experience the city. i might play a game of Basketball in the Suberbs of Brooklynn.

then take the plane to Chicago and drive Route 66 ( all 3000 miles of it) in a classic rented Mustang to LA and place me an Order for a 2011 Mustang GT.
(wich is my favorite car eva!!! :cool: )

but before i done that i went to the UK and placed 3 orders for 1/4 RC tanks. a Panther G, a King Tiger , and a Panzer 4 H.

i build a ''small'' personal car garage for 40 cars or so and collect some pretty awesome cars. Mustangs, Lamborghinis, Muscle cars, and make it an awesome guys garage. including with Elvis figurine and JukeBox! :eek:

then i flew my ass to Hong Kong and met my best Friend Gabriel Wong.
we've been talking for a long time to meet each other, and make the best 1/4 tank videos on Youtube.

start up a small company that makes 1/4 tank dolls and accesories and stuff like that.

yeah.... you could be saying i dream about it every night....;)

Nope. If I won 150 million pounds I would buy an airplane.

But I might start a company to start 1st-person radio-control dogfights. If it doesn't already exist. You can take a model ww2 fighter via remote control, using a wireless camera and a pc to change it to 1st person mode. Then you mount paintball guns on the planes with frozen paintballs so they will do real damage. At first I was thinking BB or air soft guns, but they wouldn't be able to shoot anything down.

so none of you have actually realised if you published it you had the chance of some profit and you could do all the things you listed anyway

Well round here they do .

But on a serious note I think that everyone should buy the download content pac. with the P47 and extra missions . The extra $$$ is the best way to show puplisher that a sequel will be profit maker.

Because that what the bear needs to wipe his a*s*s with is cash .

So thats my $9.99

PMSL!

If they'd have thought about it there was so much potential for 'add on' aircraft, missions and other online modes, that's where they f'd up

I did, but the profit wouldn't be as good as say flying your plane around in Air Shows, being paid to fly it/them around, and also having the ability for the goers to take a seat in the plane for a simple $20 for 1 adult and $10 for 1 Teen/Pre-teens, while 1 kid is $5. :D :cool:

Amen to that, I would get one of those full motion ones on hydraulics.
I would also get some private hackers to get gamecube rogue squadren game emulated on it. Or even get someone to create a star wars mod for the pc version of BoP

nice idea but how do you keep up with the repair costs?

By not getting shot down, of course.

If you don't want to repair your model ww2 fighter, win the battle! And don't get hit.

But now on second thought, with 150 million pounds which is something like 250 million us dollars, I would actually just start air combat for real as a sport. I know there are people that go through the motions of it, but they don't actually shoot each other. No need for model airplanes, cameras and computers, I'll use real airplanes, and the only difference will be the canopies will use modern armor so the pilot will only be killed if they fail to bail out when they're shot down.

Just another extreme sport, but if some countries ban it, I'll buy an uninhabited Pacific Island and have the competitions there, and sell the rights to pay-per-view.

Been thinking recently about whether it's worth the current price of £7.99 when I found some earlier links to when the DLC first came out - almost half the price/MS points were being asked at the time. Now that I find is a real shame, after all, the content is already there, it just needs unlocking.

I will probably buy the DLC codes though, as it will bug me constantly otherwise.

As to funding a sequel...hell, why not, just as long as they include all theatres and in broader detail.

Have you ever read The Most Dangerous Game? I think maybe a situation like that is in order for your island, but with planes.:-P

In reality, if I had that much money, the last thing I would be doing is trying to get some game published. But as long as we're dreaming, sure I guess I could toss a few bucks at 1C and see what they would do.:cool:

I took a military history class with a Professor named ron yoshino. Now when he was growing up in central California as a kid his neighbor was a retired WWII Major who was a doctor. Now the interesting thing was this Major had a landing strip in his backyard and his craft of choice was a P-51D and would fly over my Prof house just to make the kids happy.
If i won the Millions of bags of money I would Buy regular house, a big strip of land, A P-38 lightning, I would invest in a BoP sequal and invest what was left over and never work again.

I would stick £100 million in a high interest account. With the rest, I would start a company to restore (or scratch build) WW2 a/c. I would then donate them to the BBMF and pay for their upkeep. I would get things flying like a Wimpy, Mossie, Tiffy, Halibag, Whirlwind, Defiant.......... Oh the possibilties!

I would also bump off 1C and make my own company to get the sequel going! The focus group would be you guys, so the game would be made around your suggestions. Although you would probs need a seperate 60gig HDD for the game and all its DLC!
