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

I don't think you are quite getting the potential for accurate time coordination and synchronization capabilities this feature will bring to the table. Imagine getting separated from your flight over London and your in-dash clock is damaged from gunfire you never even heard hitting your plane. All you do is swoop down by Big Ben and get an accurate look at the meticulously detailed hands, then use that knowledge to calculate how much fuel you should have left for your return to France!

Personally I think this will be potentially even more immersive than spinning windmills or balcony railing details!

Maybe one of these?

- Dynamic and historic weather
- Ground personell walking about and doing their stuff
- Ground vectoring
- Command room (just like in the old BoB)
- Dynamic air and ground campaing a la Falcon4
- Real looking rain drops on you canopy, wings and fuselage
- Nice looking vortices and other aerodynamic effects
- Map of northern part of UK and Norway, Holland and Belgium
- Learning AI?

I assume they will concentrate on the flight sim part first and leave it up to the 3rd party dev's to use the SDK for all other stuff like tanks and first person shooters

I am reading a good book on bomber command at the moment which mentions St Elmo's fire quite a bit, would love to see that included.

Personally, i think it will be two things

1. Ground unit controls, because of the tab in the control customisation

2. A body mesh for the player, i.e. like in a FPS you can see your characters arms hold a gun and then fire the gun, reload etc. This would mean that the old ejection animation will come back, yippee

Hope you like

Have you seen the latest World of Planes screenshots?

There is a full pilot in player's cockpit, with one hand on throttle, one on the stick, and feet on the rudder pedals

Thats an OK feature, but not a priority in my mind, as I can see my own hands etc on the stick and throttle in my peripheral vision. I rather see a ground crew animation that would make the home base much more immersive, especially during rearm and refueling.

[adonys]

yes, it should not be priority, but it would be very good for immersion.

Same as having:
- animated ground crew
- animated pilots/crews (more motion capture animations of scanning the sky, moving, talking, etc)

and so on..

DC is the king of sim features, bar none. CoD will destroy all others if it adds this and gets fixed up.

I go for dynamic weather
