Hi Vdomini!

Yes I remember I made a suggestion to the developers for the sequel (Last man standing), but much of the fun would be that you could stay in the game and watch as a 'ghost' with various perspectives on the remaining game and planes available, and unable to distract or take part in the action.

Maybe we could try something similar - to start with I would suggest a game for three players. The first who gets killed stays out of the action but can take up a viewing position nearby to watch how the remaining dogfight turns out. However he should only come near the action when the remaining players have already clearly engaged each other, this is when their red dots on the map have 'merged'. He should stay at good distance and above the dogfight and watch while making wide circles around. He really should avoid making any aggressive turns, descents, loops and so on in order not to confuse the active players.

It would then be the responsiblity of the active players to recognise a ghost as a ghost and not waste time trying to kill it, but to stay alive.

I'm not sure if this could work, but perhaps we'll try? If it works, we could think about increasing the number of players.

What do you think?

MAC

Dom's idea could work as a nomap game too. With a prearranged playground like the port of dover, berlin airfield etc. That way when you are landed near by you won't disturb other's and you'll see the action too.

By the way I would love to join you guys. I ordered new copy from amazon. Thanks for tip Mac.

Yeah, I agree with that. If people aren't involved and they're just flying about they'll be a distraction and if they just have to fly off the map they'll be somewhat bored. Although, when they are out of the game and are coming in to land they might cause a brief moment of confusion. Perhaps when someone is killed there should be an instant ceasefire until they have confirmed they have landed?

I think best way is to land and stay on the ground.

10 minutes are short, and unless you are very unlucky and crash very soon, you could have fun.

Also, the game timeout does not need to reach 0. If after 4 min everybody dies exept one player, the host can close the match.
