The "Crooked Cross" symbol on LW aircraft tails
Since the unmentionable "Crooked Cross" is illegal in some countries and is a nightmare for others, what about a substitute?
The RAF put a 2 color bar on its vertical. The LW aircraft in game without the mark is, off, not just becuase it is, but more so compared to the RAF aircraft. Substitutes mark rejected? |

I'd like to propose some sort of symbol for Gay Pride. Or perhaps a pic of Basil Fawlty doing his routine. Henry Kissinger? For the folks at home, David Cameron.
I predict an enormo-thread. |

I thought the swastika Was the symbol of Gay Pride! Or maybe it should be? It would take away any negitive association with the symbol!
Cheers! |

well as many other say, is just historical accuracy, and in the other hand
why we can't chose what to pick up, and as somebody else say, swastika is part of history and history must not be ereased but remembered. |

Well, you could take ten second and download a swastika using google image search. Then you could paste it on the skin of your choice and load that skin in-game.
Why are we still having this discussion? It's like complaining that windows doesn't ship with wallpapers of nude women. MAKE IT HAPPEN! It's not hard and it doesn't even take more than a minute to do. I'm sure even the slowest of 12 year olds could do it from just readign this post. Do you also complain that your ramen noodles don't come pre-cooked and ready to eat in the package? Jeeze! Please tell me you people are not that helpless? Edit: Wait 1 hour after the game is released! There will be more swastika mods than you can shake a stick at. Last edited by speculum jockey; 03-02-2011 at 01:23 AM. |

I've expressed my views on this topic before. I support Maddox Games' decision to omit the swastika for fear of potential legal reprisal, though I do think the "boogey man" stigma that surrounds the swastika is ridiculous. The way in which the Nazis perverted the swastika is a historical reality and nothing can change that. It is what it is. I highly doubt many neo-Nazis are going to get meaningfully frenzied into a political fervor after buying a flight simulator that features the big scary swastika on the vertical stabilizer of a few planes.
With that said, I'd be fine if they just used the aforementioned diamond or an "X" as an alternative. It'd look okay from a distance. I'll probably just wait for the community to correct the issue. |

I bet this community's talented skinners will have more historically correct markings to share within a day or two of release. Probably even less than a day, considering how easy this particular addition would be.
