You live, you die, but you live again. I know I've done it before - Arnold rimmer - Red Dwarf X.

People who don't watch red dwarf, forgive me for that referance. Anyway, carry on reading, this may be a post for the ever popular Zuperman to have a look at. You see, I think the respawn system needs a bit of a re-think: instead of automatically spawning in a plane when you join, you have the option of spawning in a tank if you have one.

I know this might make the game a lot more easy, but what if the enemy were alerted if you spawn in a tank.

Anyway, thanks for looking at this post.

I think you are right but with updates coming thick and fast EchoBoom does not have the time to read posts on the official Dogfight forum.

I would like to see the respawning set up so you don't die because someone is already there. Today is was shot down and when I went to runway, someone was there so I crashed again. I was killed twice even though I was only shot down once. This happens a lot when the game is full. Could you make everyone line up single file instead of on top of each other causing the crash. Please let me know if I am not clear or you need additional information.

Blind Squirrel

If you died, it's from lag, with previous enemy bullets finally coming through the server.

If you crashed, yeah that's from another blue taking off. Try hitting brakes as soon as you spawn, and wait for anyone else to roll first. If there are reds nearby, you should be on brakes anyway.

Would it be possible to paint your own plane? I notice that the planes are more noticeable in game and now on replay. Squads could have a unique color scheme with their squad insignia on the tail and patches on the wings. I know the nose art was more WWII but that would be cool as well. I have no idea of the complexity of what is required, just thought it would make a good feature.

Thats a great idea blind squirrel! Id love to fly my personalized plane with squadron insignias just as long as its not as confusing to do such as banners(confusing to me at least).

Sounds intresting, but, jesus ( the designer) would have to remodel a lot of stuff and also try to resize and put the requested insignias on the planes that sounds pretty darn hard to do
For now, lets focus on lag
And i do like your idea squirrel, about the planes lineup .

BlindSquirrel,

I have seen Zup reply to the personalized planes before. Basically he said that it would cause too much lag because there are too many elements that have to be shared between servers, etc. thus not a good idea.

Nice idea, squirrel. Cya

I know that no major changes are now scheduled for dog fight but I am hoping that this request would be considered.

We have world chat and squad chat but it would be really helpful if we could have an officer's chat within the squad, visible only to MORAF and Air Marshals. I would like to have a meeting with the officers to discuss new recruit requests and other squad matters in real time.

Blind, that is a great idea! Both of us have to send multiple PM's and would be nice to have one area to discuss the items you listed.

Brilliant!

Could be cool for multiple types of planes eg bombers, slow with 4-6 bombs. Extremely venerable but would have front and rear guns. Thinking of more.
