We've worked/we're working on Germany, Japan and USA. These sides will be in the 1st release.

We haven't really looked into the sounds etc. We first want to finish the models+skins. We also don't have sound artists, so if your talented ..

[Mithril]

Yeah indigo has been quite friendly... if you can't do sounds can you do cameos?

[IndigoSpyder]

Thanks Mithril...well, how can I say this? You wouldn't want to see some of my art related works. Trust me, I still have a long way to go.

About the sounds stuffs, check your PM Stino.

Yamato can speak Japanese and has volunteered to do Japanese voices.

[Mongoose]

[Mithril]

Good.. then we just need a german voice.

[IndigoSpyder]

Any news about superweapons? Will it be added on the 1st release or they would be worked on future releases?

[the high dude]

they said earlier it was a gen point based system any one be more secpfic

[Mongoose]

well what would you have have as a super wepon. other than a V2 for germany. i can think of things. but they well work lots better as gen points, so thats how it will be based we can can't give out thing like the usa are having a nuke bomb by a b29 typthing now can we.

What types of buildable aircraft are you planning? And what is the status on them if u can say.

[tanka]

A fair few fighters have already been implemented into the alpha. Including the zero, BF109, P-51. There are a few special jet planes, that will cost generals points (ie: ME262 which is also ingame)

All the buildable planes have new animations, and look really cool ingame. Other planes such as the stuka and achival are currently been used as offmap bombers.

There are plans for Japanese suicide planes. (Everyone wants to know about them)

[entik]

Sounds good.

[IndigoSpyder]

I think all buildable Japanese planes should have the kamikaze option do so, not just a specific plane because this act applies to all planes, as long as it's Japanese.

Anyway, I hope they will be able to dive directly to a specific target instead of exploding on top of a target.

[Mithril]

That shouldn't be much of a problem - coders at DZ seem to have solved it some time ago.

Hey Mongoose, how about when you take out a Japanese plane and when it crashes to an enemy structure, it afflicts damage on where it crashes, same goes when it crashes on units.

I think kamikaze applies to Japanese planes that are about to crash, they just crash directly to an enemy instead of crashing behind enemy lines to escape.

I really don't know if they immedietely crash on enemy targets even if their planes are still in good condition, but I know they do so if they're heavily damaged and about to crash.

Don't make it look like a special skill or a superweapon by making it fire like a shell. If you want to make a tech tree skill or a sort of superweapon for Japan, I suggest a Pearl Harbour style of bombing raid. Lots and lots of Zeros swarming at your bases and you take damage as well you take them out because they'll crash around your base. After all, this kind of sneak attack was also done in the Philippines four hours after Pearl Harbour.
