Requests for the next game (assuming its the pacific)

[Gilly]

I just wish for a Lanc..... and a mossie

[grislawskijg52]

1) Fairey Battle Bomber (RAF), Boulton Defiant (RAF), Beaufighter (RAF)
2) Antiaircraft fire in Strike
3)Improved damage models for HE-111, IL-4, A-20, Blenheim in (arcade)and Yes they need the Lancaster (can't believe it is not in the game)
4) It would be nice to see some moving ground targets in strike..Tanks, Trains, Convoy and PT type boats as well.
5) The ability to get personal skins for your favorite aircraft (i would be willing to fork out a little cash for this one)
6) Junkers JU-88

Now that's the puppies croutons! Totally 'blue sky thinking' fella.

The ability to name lobbies.. "Axis vs Allies Historic" would save a lot of confusion.

It seems it's not just me who's slightly unhappy about it being Pacific based..

I dunno why but all those Radial engines make all the PTO planes look like they are overweight. It's all a bit tubby. I exclude the corsair from this coz I like it (it's skinny tho)

I know it's probably welcomed by our American contingent but Spitfires, 109s, Hurris, P51s, 190s etc over Paris is far more interesting than rotund American planes and 'one round and you're dead' Japanese stuff over (yet more) water..

(Tounge firmly in cheek and with quite a bit of sarcasm. before you start)

perhaps my initial post came off a little harshly for this you all have my apologies.
But please il2 birds of prey was a great game with few a flaws; but missing a pacific campaign was not one of the flaws in my opinion.
In my professional opinion flaws were: Not including iconic aircraft such as the lancaster and mosquito, a poor representation of French, Italian and American aircraft, unkillable gun positions on all rear gunner and bomber aircraft, lack of clear definition in setting up game lobbies e.g. allies verses axis, single seat fighters only etc was a flaw. random deployment in team battles (makes absolutely no sense), no wave re-spawn in strike CTA and team battle.
These are the critical issues i would like to see fixed before adding a pacific campaign or preferably a north African campaign
I do know a lot of American and Japanese players would really like a pacific campaign. I would hope they focus on fixing flaws within the multiplayer modes, rather than simply adding a or devoting the game pacific campaign and marketing it as a new game. You can finish the single player within two days, it's the multi-player that keeps interest in the game.

I agree with the suggestions so far. Some other things i would stick in if we we posting wishes:

Co-Op Campaign for 4 players
Multi players in single aircraft
Transport planes for paratroop drop missions.
Bombs eye view cam option
Heavy anti air damage from strike targets
Private lobbies
Multi player levelling up with shot down totals on your plane
Editable plane skins
Ability to knock out individual engines on multi engine bombers
Destructible houses and buildings
Grand slam bomb unlock for the lanc

1. i would like the planes to fly like they should. no spins at a whim/ flying brick stuff.
2. carrier launch and landings
3. torpedo, dive bombing, and straffing missions against land targets and
ships and subs.
4. a good selection of ac ( 51s, 38s, 40s, spits and hurris were there as
well as all the naval ac).
5. cockpits for all ac
6. return to base for refuel, rearm, and repair.
7. flak and AA that is realistic not like the rear gunner on a 17
8 killable rear and waist gunners on bombers!!
9. adjustable flap control in realistic 1 tap each for 10 degrees, hold down to
retract
10 more controls for team battles...cockpit view only, no bombers or jets...
11. downloadable skins for the ac...i would even pay a few $ to get a pack of
different skins.
12. vibrating the stick or game pad prior to a stall. that vibration increases
until in a full stall. would be better than the current stall warning giving
you more control and feel for the ac.

that ought to do for a start....

I agree with Zatoichi Sanjuro, "Join in progress trumps all". This would make online multiplayer much more enjoyable, and might even get me to renew my xbox gold membership

I also agree with Bobbysox "1. i would like the planes to fly like they should. no spins at a whim/ flying brick stuff."

It would also be nice if we could tweak down that control stick "dead zone", which is so annoying on 360.

a free mission menu like apache air assault, & if the replays are the same as aaa some way of changing the angle of it
