Spit pursuit to Fw190 over Chanel, Imaga from cover to box game :)

This is 1940 sir.

An FW 190 or 109 F or Spit V are the last things we need.

I want a Convair NB-36 pl0x!

It would take years to model!!!!

:grin:

Think of the game box art as like a "Serving Suggestion", a bit like the picture on a box of frozen food, that rarely matches what's actually inside......:lol:

I think the Fw-190 would be a good one :D And the Devoitine 520! Not really battle of britain material, but surely, the game, like for the original IL-2 will extend to greater (greater by size, time periods and locations) theaters.

Also on a side note before all of these I think the Su 26 should be made flyable asap.

I just want a plane that flies above 20 000 ft without having a fit

I think it the primary thing would be the equalisation of the time line, in which the RAF has a huge benefit currently.

The present most modern luftwaffe fighter with these armorless cocpit, DB 601 engine and MG-FF weapon enters service in early 1939, in Spanish Civil War*

The first Spitfire Mk II enters in service in Aug 1940. The Germans got the 109 E-7 in the same month. An Bf 109 E-4, DB 601/N engine and a MG-FF/M cannon were received already on the same summer. From E-4 the German airplanes were equipped with Armoured cocpit, automatic prop pitch and automatic water radiator system (i mention the most important ones only).

So, the Hispano may wait for a short time...:rolleyes:


*"Early in the year (1939) J/88 had recieved 40 new cannon-armed Bf 109 E fighters, and the outdated early marks were passed to Gruppo 5-G-5. On 5 March Mölders's replacement as leader of 3 Staffel." (Osprey Airwar3 - Christopher Shores: Spanish Civil War Air Forces, page 42)

IMHO just let the guys at 1C fix what we have. Then give us the tools to build our own add ons (to be approved by 1C after testing of course). This sim would be a monster in no time.

Clearly we all would like to see various extra aircraft added to CoD at some point.
Im sure the devs would be only to happy to provide additional aircraft as this would turn out to be a nice little earner for them. Unfortunatly any later type aircraft added make any previous models obsolete. Who wants to fly their 109D against a P51 or Tempest ? Fancy your chances in a MKII Spit against a long nose FW ? Thought not, neither do I.
Clearly for the U.S market the devs would have a chance of greater sales if they included U.S aircraft. But the problem is that moves us on too 1943 in the timeline, and a lot happened between 1940-1943.
Perhaps they are considering the "Eagle Squadrons" of the RAF manned by US volunteers. But even with this scenario we are talking 1941,
So additional aircraft must be added along a timeline or within a scenario
When new scenarios ie maps are added clearly the will be stand alone addons
so perhaps we can look forward to

North Africa , Its a gift, sparse landscape ideal for frame rates, lotsa strafing , always fun and not to much work for additional aircraft

Eastern front , clearly the devs true love.

Pacific war , Whole new conflict type ( I do love the Zero)

Last days of the Reich, The finest Allied and German fighters battling it out over Germany.

Clearly creating new maps is not a priority on the devs list, however it would be rather easy to move the present map onto a 1942-3 setting with the advantage of being able to add the P47, Later spits, FW190 and later 109s and perhaps the B17.

Once this game (sorry sim) is sorted and more playable lets say six months this potental to sell essentially the same game over and over to a loyal and dedicated core of fans for the next ten years must be any accountants dream.
