A little trivia tid-bit, that would only be of interest to P-51 (and movie) fans...

"Most" of the aerial sequences, showing the P-51 and Hayabusa battling, are in fact scale RC aeroplanes.

Please accept that I will not speak about ongoing projects. That is neither my job nor would it be wise. Like I said we're all doing this in our spare time and sometimes "real life" strikes. One of our members had two very interesting projects running when, about a year ago, real life struck and he had to put his work and his membership on hold (he's still in that limbo BTW). So you see it wouldn't be a good idea to speak in detail about what is going on ATM. But a Meteor is not on the scope ...

I would like to see more flyables heavies, a bigger map for central/western europe (so we could go from North sea to Germany, even with a fake island so you dont need to draw the UK), more japaneses airplanes flyables (or at least IA), i tthink this one is a WIP but it would be great that the IA could get lost if you fly inside a cloud....
And smaller patches.... even size of just one plane.

You should read previous page. About new planes. Aslo, it's not "IA", it's "AI", and in already can lost you inside a cloud. And patches "size of just one plane" are unpractical.

One thing that really needs to be addressed is the AI.

What I am talking about specifically is the fact that STILL you can set an enemy aircraft on fire.. and he will still fly around.. and in many cases actually engage aircraft ... while smoking.. I don't know how doable this is.. but AI aircraft should do the same thing most live pilots would do when their plane catches fire... bail out. Unless wounded... and they certainly shouldn't keep flying around attacking other aircraft.. This is a real immersion killer.. especially on a coop or MDS server.. Can this be addressed?

I would like some kind of answer from someone please.

I have made posts on other issues in this thread and got no response at all.. I hope someone responds to this one..

Flyable Hampden .. and ability to lay mines.

Thanks

Do we know when 4.11 is going to be released?

P.S Excuse me if already mentioned but couldn't read all the 37 pages...;)

Server with 128 or more players in big maps, and dynamic MDS generic missions...

Could you redo the p-47 and mig-3 cockpits. Because they look like someones used paint to colour them and then cut and pasted pictures of 3d switches of the internet and pasted them on a 3d block. Because this has completely put me off the p-47 which would be one of my favruite aircraft and the mig-3.

The MiG-3 is one of the oldest models in the game, from the original Il-2. The P-47 model was done as a "gift" by someone so as to make the plane flyable, also very early in the game's development.

I agree, but maybe DT have their hands tied at the moment. Revamping the AI won't be easy and may cause DGEN to become unusable.

At the moment, I feel, the most pressing issue is "eyes behind the head". You cannot get within 200 meters of the enemy without them rolling away. However, sometimes your AI wingmen totally fail to call out anything (which is realistic, but this double-standard is bad for gameplay).

Another big deal for me would be switch off "Mission Over", "Red Team Won", etc. and to be able to pick and choose which hud logs appear on the side (My preference would be for nothing but bomb-sight controls and power/mix/rad settings).

But I'll take whatever I get. Any update great - and these have been awesome updates :)
