The b17 is such a legend that putting it in the game with limited capability would be a dis service to the plane We need a remake of B17:the mighty 8th with this engine

I just got a Gordon Cooper haircut lol, its not as long though.
The topic is clearly for wishful thinking, I don't think any heavy bombers are even going to be flyable. Really besides the B17, what else was do the heavy bombing, I know the B25 but they are listed as a medium bomber (not much difference really in there execution of the mission, I think, never read into it much) what did the RAF use? didn't they use b25s aswell? and the germans never got a heavy bomber into action really, infact they never conducted bombing raids (Probably to busy trying to fight the Sov and Raf/US LOL) they have medium 111 and stukas for more surgical stikes, quick and decisive, good for frontline operations, but you have to take the ground eventually to rebuild, they never got the chance, they got western europe, then right after that, they go into a longer war, mostly a war of attriation (never good for winning, look at the US in vietnam, we lost because of attriation warfare (that and politcal issues at home, no support for the war) Anyway sorry for the ramble, I say no heavy bombers because the name itself "Birds of Prey" clearly this game is leaning towards our Fighter Role planes, thankfully every ww2 player doubled as a bomber/fighter so now I can re enact the last scene to private ryan! They probably have private ryan mission already from the org IL i bet someone made, be easy, just got to hit one tank by a bridge!

Ah a microprose game, they used to be the name for games.
I never seen this one, but i was only 8 in 92, and we had no pc yet, I heard of that other b17 game, but my pc at the time was lacking (only could play janes games on it like usnf) this one looks so cool though, really immersive with those menus. i wish i could emu this on the ps3 right now LOL actually in 1992 i did play PTO (pacific theater of operations) a Turnbased strat game of fleets (japan vs usa) really cool, u form packs of ships over different parts and you call the shots!! i guess its like those new battlestation games

I hope we have the ability to have a some-what realistic start up. I am praying that take off and landings are a part of at least some of the missions.
I am also hoping for a comfortable and easy means of viewing the sky and ground from within the cockpit. I just hope it looks and feels as good as the previews have shown.

If i were to have one thing in the game. A multi-player game with a realistic WWII objective. Like, lets say you can have forty people play at one time. Have twenty on one team, twenty on the other. The other teams objective is to get at least 50,000 puonds of bombs on the target. Depending on what the host pics, it can onlt be bombers of that specific battle and not just a bunch of people flying in every aircraft possible. While the other team has to try and stop this. GET IT.
