What do you think it is that Luthier thinks will have Competitors squirming?

[Ataros]

Drivable U-boats.

[No601_Swallow]

St Paul's bleedin' Cathedral

[Wolf_Rider]

Battlefield Commander

Code that allows the game to run properly.

[CharveL]

Working radar implementation that they mentioned years ago.

3d..!?

Dons goggles..

Well who are the competition? The only thing close is World Of Planes as they are in the same time period. So what would make the WOP guys squirm?

Maybe something to bring in the 'aircade' players?

As we are on Steam maybe it's all about hats, like in Team Fortress 2.

We get to collect hats and trade them with other players!
The open canopy aircraft will be all the rage because other players will have unrestricted view of our magnificent hats. Oh the jealousy!....

For the sake of keeping the posts short and to the point you get three guesses (not including Luthier!) to see if you guess right when it's released, so here are mine.

1) Pilot visible in the cockpit from the player POV when inside

2) Dynamic Campaign Generator

3) Ability to view aircraft in online battles on a 3D battle map like you were in a map room with a virtual environment showing all the aircraft in the sky (imagine Map view with Red and Blue icons, but larger view and the aircraft are in 3D, the map fills the screen?

4) Oleg is coming back

4a) Okay 4 isn't going to happen so I've only had 3

Okay, your turn cheers, MP

maybe 2 but even then this isnt some complex and like unheard of feature...i dont see 1 being that big of a deal...im the pilot and i can see my hands on my joystick and so on...same with 3...i didnt buy the game to watch battles play out on a map...

in reality all they have to do to make their competitors squirm is to simply refine the game and work out all the bugs, the fact that this game even exists should be enough to make competitors squirm...

1.- After successfully parachuting on enemy territory, being able to control the pilot in order to escape capture and return to the friendly lines (FPS style).

2.- Control of ground units or groups of units.

3.- Voice activated commands to the other pilots/crew.

Just wishing ....

Controllable AA and torpedoboat.
Or indeed lifelike dynamic weather with airlayers ,temperature and so forth.
Both would be fun but my preference goes to dynamic weather.
