Add tier 11 to 20?

 

 

also, instead of bombing only houses, a map like, lets say, malinovka, with takns fighting on the ground that keep coming in waves, which bombers can kill like the current ground targets.

 

 

 

it really is not a reference to other games,  this game looks nice, and i am semi serious with the suggestions.

There are not enough planes to populate another 10 tiers not only for nations that stopped development, like Germany, but for all others.

Depending on method, jet fighters from tier 8 are classified as 0 or 1st generation - high speed subsonic. Tier X are 1st or 2nd generation - subsonic or even transonic (later versions, for example F-86 is claimed to bypass speed of sound in shallow dive, but it wasn't announced for political reasons).

Then there are supersonic fighters with AA missiles - something that WG said will never happen (at least supersonic speed seems to be a serious limitation of game engine).

And after tier X there are about 5 generations: 3,4,4+,4++,5, and there are about 5 5th generation fighters all around the world: F-22, F-35, PAK-FA, J-20 and J-31. Well, F-35 can be split on 3, but still there are only 3 nations with such planes: USA, Russia and China.

oh come on man, grippen and eurofighter? f16, f15?  lots of planes to add.  ;)

Go ahead, try to name them and put them on tiers, if you think you can.

If the XP cost progression follow the same formula across tiers (basically a mild exponential rise), that Tier 20 plane would probably require 100 billion XP. 

 

Just putting that out there.

WG said, that in same way as in WoT smoothbore cannons and computerized FCU won't happen, in WoWP won't happen speed of sound and guided missiles.

Kinda sad about the latter, because similar mechanics as in AW would be nice.

 

And you skipped MiG-17/19 and Super Sabre phase.

 

Here is a big image of fighter generations:

Guided missile would be bad for gameplay reasons is my guess.

You just lock on to a target, click fire, and basically hope that your opponent doesn't do crazy maneuvering to dodge it.

There'd be plenty of players who just wouldn't be able to do so, and the bots would just get raped.

 

So it'd be pretty frustrating to play against it, while fairly boring to play it yourself.

Not to mention the exp costs to unlock them.

super sabre and mig 17/19 could be upgrades from t10    Vietnam era cannons were still very important   missiles were not very advanced those days

Which word in "NO SUPERSONIC PLANES IN WOWP, SAID WG" don't you understand?

I would rather like to see the empty tech trees getting populated. I bet we could squeeze in more French, Chinese and a complete Italian tech tree.

[Tha_Truth]

ok helicopter battles then, thats subsonic enough and also fun.
