I heard that many WW2 plots had dogs.
I think they should model pilot's dogs in the game.
That is all.

Wow....this is Tavingon style weirdness, I believe some of them had girlfriends too but Spitgirl wasn't exactly a massive hit, should we also include their entire life story since birth?

In addition to Dogs, and Wives/ girlfriends I would also like to see the opportunity for pilots based near good pheasant country to take the 12 gauge out between sorties and get some birds.

Crappy jokes aside - in ArmA II for example I liked the wildlife. Wasn't much but it still had an effect.
An Airfield that would feel alive couldn't be more awesome. Dogs, mechanics, tankers, crew, if possible I'd love to see that added. :D

I guess we'd all like to see a GTA IV type kinda world (WW2 setting of course) 'underneath' our Flight Sim, but it's just not doable at the moment.

I can see potential with the game feature of driveable vehicles to have a 'blast' driving around in one of the classic MG sports cars they all apparently had and blasting phesants with the shotty from the drivers seat.

If not dogs, the possibility of adding a girlfriend picture in the cockpit would be nice. There are some IL2 1946-mods that allows that I think, so in theory it should be possible.

Mmm, an MG would be nice - but the Mercedes W125 would be better ;) I just love that 1937 race car that had more horsepower than F1 cars had until the 80:ies... Top speed of 320 km/h and no downforce at all. The classic press qoute by Rodney Walkerley from the 1937 Donnington GP says it all:
"Away beyond the woods we heard the approaching scream of a well-tuned E.R.A. and down the winding slope towards us came Raymond Mays. He changed down, braked, skirted round the Hairpin and was gone. "There's the winner," remarked one of my friends. "Knows this course backwards." Half a minute later came the deeper note of a 2.9-litre Maserati, and "B. Bira" (Prince Birabongse of Siam, Mays’ nearest rival and a new star in the racing firmament) shot past us, cornering with that precision which marked him as the master he was. "Or him," said another. We waited again. Then they came. Far away in the distance we heard an angry, deep-throated roaring – as someone once remarked, like hungry lions impatient for the arena. A few moments later, Manfred von Brauchitsch, red helmeted, brought a great, silver projectile snaking down the hill, and close behind, his teammate Rudolf Caracciola, then at the height of his great career. The two cars took the hairpin, von Brauchitsch almost sideways, and rocketed away out of sight with long plumes of rubber smoke trailing from their huge rear tyres, in a deafening crash of sound. The startled Pressmen gazed at each other, awe-struck. "Strewth," gasped one of them, "so that's what they're like!" That was what they were like."
But a dog would be OK too ;)

Its just an idea, an adding to the much ideas we have, dont destroy it, if you cannot aport any new , dont blame in the work of the others, and dont use the excuse of its absurd becose, in the time you expended writing that comment you can really help the community and the game searching for new ideas, its not a bad response, only my opinion, if we all help, we all get benefits.
and yes, it woul be a good idea, every content to add in the game that has happened in the ww2 its a good idea. and more, if we count that are a few sims that the player can customize all of his things.

I get what you are saying but in my oppinion 'help' is usually assistance in the solution to a problem, I am struggling to see where a dog based problem exists in the game.....is this a flight sim or some strange kind of RPG style game to act out weird fantasies......I'm pretty sure people will eventually be asking for magic elves etc.....

Can't model dogs until they sort the trees out. Think about it.

One problem I can see is that in that era dogs were given names like Sambo and Nigger (Douglas Bader's dog was called Nigger apparently). Having a pilot wander across an airfield shouting 'Here Sambo' might not go down too well in some quarters!

In WWII, many pilot and aircrew wizit brothel and do dirty sexy business with girls there. Can we have brothel in the game?
And anyway, who said a G/S out-turns an E/S. Not according to my graphs m8!

Appart from Guy Gibson's dog 'N word'.....(Guy Gibson was not even a fighter jock in the Battle of Britain), can you name me all these 'famous' dogs?......if we eventually end up with dogs in game who is going to feed them? and take them for walks? clean up after them? what if they have behavioural issues and are compulsive 'leg humpers'? how will the CO react to that?

Ok, ok, ok, clearly dogs is pushing it too far...
What about pilot owned cats?
Meow...

It would circumvent the animal husbandry requirements and avoid behavioural issues, you just have to put up with the looks of utter contempt from the cat as you try to 'shoo' it out of the cockpit when you need to scramble.

Probably need to model milk too now.
Cats drink milk.
bongodriver
08-24-2012, 11:38 AM
problem is we have no sources of measureable data of how milk was in 1939/45, sure you can ask granny but that would just be annecdotal and we know old peoples accounts aren't worth toffe, we need data supplied by a faceless goverment agency of the time to tell us what milk should be like and if the milk at that time came up to scratch, theres bound to be bias too, milk from the continental alpine/tyrolean regions was light years ahead in milk technology, give a cat the option of rich creamy sweet goodness compared to incipid and watery British milk and we all know what the cat would choose.
pstyle
08-24-2012, 11:43 AM
Aren't there some photos of a 1939 milk bowser/ delivery van somewhere online?
If we are modelling milk, might as well add cows in too. Can't be too much to ask, the grass is there already.....

Yeah but then all the arguments over which had the better performance would start, the Jersey or the 'Heck'.

What next Budggies?
Still we have london buses why not a horse and cart delivering milk?
Think a Dairy heard in the odd field would look realistic to what was about in WW2.
Stll a great laugh for a topic.LOL:grin:
Just had a quick flight around Rochester in a ME109 G2 on FSX.
