Ok Z this is obviously not going to be anytime soon but we've all noticed that there is a "type" for airplanes (currently you only have fighters) I've been trting to think of a way to add bombers while keeping the game balanced. So first thing is first...only one bomber per team (I think its to much of a hassle to make more than one bomber per team because the one with the fastest speed will always be chosen). Next is the bomb load. How Many bombs are they allowed to have? Two....to start. You'll have to pay extra for 2 extra bombs (so 4 bombs at highest possible max) the reason you do this is so people will be more oriented on using fighters until they get enough money for the extra bombs. This is good because a team with alot of noobs with bombers will most likely get their asses handed to them on a silver plate. With 2 bombs they will stick to fighters until they have leveled up enough to understand how to effetively fly before turning to bombers. Next question: How fast should bombers be? Slightly slower than the slowest fighters. This will be so fighters have a chance to stop bombers. Next question: Manuverability? Low for obvious reasons. Next question: How will it fight fighters? this gets intesting. Bombers should have the normal forward firing view but they also need more. I propose that bombers get a 3rd camera angle. It will be like 3rd person except when they rotate the screen it will stop were your looking instead of going back to forward. Then it can shoot 360...but only from level or above. The bomber should not be able to shoot under itself. (There has to be a weak point where fighters have a fighting chance to take
it out. Next question: Well obviously this is a big Target, won't it be to easy to destroy? Yes....unless you make it 6+plus hits to take it down. Next question: how will you fly the plane I'd your in the 360 mode? When activating the gunners seat the plane will automatically level itself and fly straight. This way your not flying while looking sideways which will become very confusing, especialy for newer members. Next question: what rank do you unlock the bomber? The same rank when you unlock the Fokker and spad, because it will keep a few more fighters in the air so likely not everyone will be using bombers.
I think I've shown how to properly implement bombers, if anyone sees any unbalanced parts please post what should be done to fix it. Also, Z, if you need any clarification on what I said because you don't understand, I'd prefer u post below so others can debate and add any feedback to your feedback. I understand this won't be done for many months (or at all) but I'm always trying to think of ways to keep the game fresh and keep the community coming back. I appreciate the time you put in this app (and that you actually read this mamoth of a post)

same. and ther was only the red fokker and if you let the throttle out you just dropped. you didnt glide. and you rolled on an axis. and multiplayer sucked cause there was no arrows to point to your enemies so there was no turning fights.

I think we should make it wher when you land at your base you can choose to switch to a bomber or go with your fighter like when you get shot down and you parshute you git to choose if you want your plane or your tank I think this should work the same you choose the fighter plane you want but when you join game it ask if you want to go to a bomber or stick with your fighter. Second I also think the speed should be 1 speed agilty 1 and armament 5 stars you start with 4 stars in armament and upgrade to five for 50 more bulits and 2 more bombs. Third the tup of bombers we should have I think for German is the gotha and the alies the handly. These are ideas frome a post I made two weeks ago. I am voting for this. O I about forgot maby the bomber should take ten hits to bring down becuse in a one second burst you fire about ten shots 6 shots would be to easy I hit fighters with 6 shots in a 5th of a second depending in the plane same fire very fast like the camel.

You gets my vote too.

And I've already done all aircraft and upgrate's I can now also nothing more with all the money I earn now.
It seems to me that a very good idea to do so.
Moreover, even if you should save your money on is whether zuperman going to buy it, making it attractive also maybe zuperman for word, and there also maybe to what can earn.
would you not then you can just save until you have enough money for 2 additional bombs.

Good idea.

Maybe bombers could bomb at over 500 ft or their bombs won't work.and they can have 2 bombs

No offense, hy flyer, but I'm not sure if everyone would like a height limitation. I think, however, that it would need a bombsight for high altitude, level bombing.

I think they need to cost about 35,000 credits (points). I think the upgrades should be durability, payload (bomb amount), and speed. Also, like I stated earlier, it will need a bomb-sight, whether they had them for World War I or not.

I think a sort of "system failures" would be nice. Like you lose your engines, but you can glide, bomb, and use your machine guns. So, if at a significant altitude and close to the enemy base, you could in theory still bomb them.
