After the important things get fixed, what else do we want in this sim?

I'll start by saying I'd like to see a first-person view when you bail out. It would be cool to see the first-person view from sitting in the cockpit to jumping out the plane. Then free falling and pulling the cord and watching the dogfight as you slowly fall to earth.

Force Feed Back. Not sure if that is considered major or not.

As far as tertiary things go I'd say I'd like to see AA guns being player controlled asap (after all major fixes).

I have a FF joystick so i'd say force feedback is on top of my list. AA guns too!

A large playable plane list spanning from 1910 - 2010 with all planes and systems accurately modeled.

Maps and a dynamic campaign for every theater of air warfare that accurately reflects the number of planes, ground units and personnel used in each operation.

An AI that passes an aerial Turing test and is in every way indistinguishable from human pilots. Similar AI for ground units.

Those are the first things that spring to mind.

You do noticed that IL2COD is a WW2 sim right? :confused::confused::confused::confused:

So it would make sence to add more WW2 planes like in Il2-1946 (Lots of fighters, bombers and so on ...) :!:

p.s. oh and ye ... if it was a joke forget my post ;)

Hi Guys,

Sorry if this is already answered elsewhere. What is the chance of this game having FF implemented at a later date?

TheEditor
04-03-2011, 03:28 AM
I'd say from all the responses on this forum, force feedback will be there...someday...

realistic external merlin and other external aircraft audios.

will be sweet for movie making , having nice external audios,

failing this make the audio edit friendly open format.

Obvious and easy selecatable skin settings for aircrafts (like in IL2).

more theaters
and a MUCH better campaign system with cutscenes,deatailed briefings ,REALISTIC debriefings (not just a story that totally ignores what happens in the mission) and if possible dynamic.At least don't show the "next" button in if you totally fail or put or put it as an option like the old IL-2.
More SP missions,more maps.
Better weather and clouds

Instruments easily displayed on a second monitor and other considerations for cockpit builders.

Some sort of FF for seat, but not in the joystick for my preferences at least.

Air Raid Sirens on the fields, a dynamic campaign that lets you take part in the last moments of the BoF up to the final days of the BoB, including the evacuation, awards and ranks for your campaign, more variants of the Hurricane and last but not least drop-in missions to randomize what you are up against.

Some warships to make some proper convoys, as at the moment the only so called warship is a British landing boat. At the outbreak of BoB the destroyers where prime targets for dive bombing.

Someone already mentionned more theaters and I want to add more planes. I heard of a Mediterian Theater and so I hope for some versions of the P40.

2. Better sounds (including a stall buffet which is entirely missing).

You do have certain inactive settings in your controls setup such as "start engine compressor/stop engine compressor" and some War emergency power effects when you hit the button and it says "afterburner off". Shows that they are thinking ahead. ;)

Jeez. It's not even out everywhere and you already clamor for other theaters. Keywords: finger, take, whole arm with shoulder :roll:

My personal and totally unprepresentative list in no particular order:


Fix of performance issues
Fix of translation bugs in GUI
Bf 109 E-1 and E-4 (as talked about by Luthier)
MG FF/M for Bf 110 C-4 and C-7 (as in reality)
skin templates for all aircraft with 3D overlay
Fix of marking issues (falsely assigned emblems, units in wrong category, ground vehicle markings not working)
AI Ju 52
warships
Those gorgeous human figures we've seen in development (tank, vehicle and artillery crews, mechanics etc)


And last but not least ... some detailed documentation about the FMB.

Have you tried the 110 and had a listen to the external gun & cannon sounds? Those are not bad actually. I think they forgot about the fighters. :)

It needs Dynamic Campaign Career mode..plus the first person view of the bail out.

Thats all :)

Force feedback of course.

What were they thinking.LOL

I must say the OP suggestion with a 1st person parachuting would be truly immersive and add a whole new level of realism!

It feels so unpersonal when you see someone jump out in first person, it's just "some guy" and not yourself..

Much enough still ahead to fix.

But after all performace problems have been debugged I only have one big wish: make the engine sounds editable so one fine day we can have something like this legally:

After that I will tell you my other wishes :D

Hi,

Having the possibility to control your pilot once bailed out and interact with ground AA and vehicules. Apparently, the 3D engine for COD has been designed with this capability in mind in the long run.

Actually, DSC has already done it with a-10:

For me, it's the sound.

Some sounds are great, ie. weapon firing, but many of the aircraft engines all sound alike. (?)
Voice acting is okay, but could be better.
Engines don't seem loud enough to me.

A waypoint option in the FMB to make aircraft loiter in a position for a specified time before continuing to next waypoint.

A waypoint option in the FMB to make aircraft loiter in a position for a specified time before continuing to next waypoint.

You can do it now by just making a couple extra waypoints at the spot to loiter. let your aircraft turn around circular area for the time of loiter.

There is supposed to be a more comprehensive document released soon that deals with scripting and programming tools for the FMB. I would think what you asked would be easily done with such tools

rain effects , water moisture on canopy , also some fogging

more varied weather choices ingame. overcast would be nice, however clouds need performance fixed as is.

I want a speedbar like in Il2- I'm addicted to it!
Indication on screen when a kill is confirmed.
Improved comms system- i cant get it to work properly. I would like the text to refer to me by name or be in a different colour so i can readily tell when they are referring to me (i'm rubbish at remembering what number i'm supposed to be).
A quick way to change convergence/loadout for all guns, with the option to change them individually.

.... and FFB;-)

Yea I remember doing that in the beta. A-10 is a good game.

wishlist

fixing the framerate
fixing the stutter
better joystick support and tuning
better sounds
collisions with tree
better user interface
better ai
career mode
better effects, in particular tracers, but also crashes, in flight explosions
more mid sized mp maps
better damage model (yes, this one have flaws)
access to structure and weathering files for skinning

Pease consider animated oil blotches on canopy & bullet ricochetes

Blackdog_kt
04-04-2011, 09:51 AM
Ricochets are already there. After crash-landing a 110 i switched to external camera and started firing the guns, it wasn't long before i could see tracers going off in weird angles. It looks pretty good, even better if you use cannon shells that have a smoke trail.
