As it is mentioned in some interview or a website, the planes in SoW will wear in use etc. If I recall right that is. So for this, can we see the plane get dirty, the bullet holes (fixable, minor ones) and other tear & wear visible on "our" plane in outside view, for example after landing or in briefing?
Many times mechanics of FiAF mentioned the noses of the Bf109's being greyish of guns being fired and they had to clean the glasses etc. This applies to modern planes as well, seen under years how the planes gradually turn from factory fresh to dirty, paint patched more used planes today So possibility of dynamic dirt and show of damage etc?
There could be some nice features of the ground crew added later, but which ones are interesting for a few times and pointless to the game and those that really would matter is another issue. Maybe pilot (gamer) checks the plane before flight, the pre-flight inspection etc. Just a few.. |
Yes we have this feature in code. In time from mission to mission the plane looks older. But of coure it isn't 100% real life changes. Just approximation. But looks superb and add immersion
That to make inspecition we should add a lot of other features of unprepared or prepared for the flight aircraft. Then it will have sense. But we don't plan to go in this direction. It is too complex code in terms of time cration and don't have too good effect on the gameplay if to calculate ration time/money = final effect
For any feature is some calculation in these terms. In two words - how much cost and what the result...
