Suggesting to devs

[Tolo]

Hi,
it would be nice to have the following as aditional options or improvements in the game on the ps3:

- mappable controls for the thrustmaster or at least the brakes should work
or a shift button to assign more functions
or a possibility to assign to two different mappings of the Thrustmaster different functions
- free 360° view on the cooli hat, eliminate the deadzone
- the option to play the missions, training or campain with a start and landing
- the option to choose "0" enemies in Training
- and maybe also an option for the flaps in realistic too, to choose as automatic or manual. Therefore more Buttons on the Thrustmaster

At all the Game is allready great! The best flygame on a console i have ever seen! Thx! The suggestions would make a more simulated feeling playing the game.

Maybe not being pulled to the menu as soon as the mission is acomplished will help.

Often I have the sense (wrong of course) that they dont want I enjoy too much his wonderful game.

Hi! This is my first post here. Been playing the PS3 version with my Thrustmaster HOTAS Stick. The game is very very good.
My suggestion for braking and WEP using the throttle:
It seems like your using the whole 0-100 scale for speed. Which means that you can't fly on 100% speed (it will always go into WEP) nor brake. Why don't you just adjust the scale so that 1% throttle equals 0 speed and 99% throttle equals 100 speed. So the max (100% throttle) and min (0% throttle) settings could be used for WEP and braking.

Another thing. The look around function:
Why don't you just get rid of the look down function when pressing down and use that movement to look back on your six? looking down on the instruments is pretty neat, but not really helpful and when in virtual cockpit looking straight down is kind of unrealistic anyways.
Other than that, the game is almost perfect.
Oh one more wish: it would be cool if emergency landings were possible and if successful the plain could be repaired...

But please keep that to the virtual cockpit. In cockpit view I would hate not being able to see the wonderfully modelled and working instruments. It defeats the purpose of having them I think.

Hey while we're all hoping maybe a P-39 Airacobra and a P-40 Warhawk, in Russian skins would be sweet.

Hey Anton, Great job on the game, you guys have done stellar work, and made many people very happy with the results
Personally i have been waiting for this title ever since i 1st saw the 1st trailer over a year ago, even went out and bought myself a new flight stick.. lol

heres a few suggestions ive notice that would make this awesome game even more awesome
On PS3 version, be able to setup private servers (passworded) or reserve slots for friends.
To be able to play again with same group of people without dropping back to the setup lobby.
Internal gunner positions (with modelled interiors at some point)

Oops! Sorry, I just started a thread to the Devs before I saw this one - apologies!

My request/suggestion is for the unlocking of all the online dependant aircraft (and, ideally, weapons packages) for offline play. I know one or two other games where this has been done (classes etc. being unlocked for offline play) which means that those of us who don't play online so much can access the full contents of the game. For those that do wish to play online though, the challenge of unlocking all the aircraft (and the corresponding Trophies) is still there.

If this could implemented in a forthcoming patch or update it would be great and would really complete the game for me. I love the training mode, but I'd really like the full set of aircraft (especially the Spitfire Mk.XIV!) to play with.

Thanks for your time and an excellent game!

I'd like a free flight mode where I can practice my flying in any unlocked aircraft and map. Should be easy to accomplish.

Also I'd like the option of take-off and landing for every mission. IE. Battle of Britain Scramble!!!!!

Lots of others but they are my main two and would be sooooo easy to encode in a DLC.

Best idea yet!!

My thoughts for DLC's,

Axis campaigns,
Free flight mode, maybe modify training mode to include take off's and landings?
Heavy bombers, I know the B17 can be unlocked but what about the lancaster, halifax, stirling etc, and the B24 for the yanks, plus the German FW200 condor?
8th airforce missions flying out of east anglia,
BoB battles over London, scrambling out of Biggin Hill, Redhill, North Weald, Colney etc,
the game NEEDS a Mosquito badly,
historically accurate aeroplane registrations and squadron codes, (Please),

Maybe as add-on expansions,

Pacific Theatre, Zero's, corsairs, bearcats, B29's,
North Africa, theres something about a desert spec MK5 spit with that huge air filter,
