@Alternation alright then
You know what? Just add me to your tags
@TemporaryReplacement alright
@Alternation that shouldn’t be to hard to do, I’ll let you know when I finally get around to doing it
I found it very interesting
How about a working MXY-7 Ohka on the Betty, you spawn as a ship and the Betty will come towards you and launch the Ohka and it will slam you
@TemporaryReplacement I know how you feel lol
I didn't get around to posting my Gold Special until I already had like 6-8k lol
@TheUltimatePlaneLover take as long as you need, I’m at 12.7k and I’m still considering what I want to do for a 10k special lol
@TemporaryReplacement Yea, but it'll take some time. I have to make the PB4Y and SEPECAT Jaguar first.
So far I think I can do the PEA F-16 Remake with ease, the F-11Y3 remake will be hard because I plan to make everything custom (e.g. cockpit, landing gear, afterburner etc.), the new one will be interestin tho
@TheUltimatePlaneLover that’s actually a pretty good idea
@TemporaryReplacement Works for me lol
I'm considering actually doing a three-part platinum special, one will be a PEA (most likely the F-16 since that was my first attempt at a PEA, albeit non-eligible), one will be a remake of an older plane (I'm thinking either the B-52 Lite, F-11Y3 Draconian, or OG Fighter Jet, but I'm open to suggestions), and the final one will be a unique, new aircraft like my Gold or 10k Special (the B-26 Marauder and F-420 Vortex respectively)
@TheUltimatePlaneLover this is gonna sound a bit cheesy, but I say just do whatever you want honestly. Maybe a remake of an old build, maybe just some random thing you found that ya wanna make.
(This is just my way of saying I have no ideas)
@TemporaryReplacement Thanks! :D
What do you think I should do for my platinum special?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover congrats on plat btw!
@TemporaryReplacement aight then, thx
@TheUltimatePlaneLover A zero I could find from Zuikaku was numbered “653-117,” which is basically just your average late war zero scheme with fancy stripes on the tail.
(so just look up A6M5 653-117, there’s a bunch of references)
@TemporaryReplacement Aight then
Got any links or sources I could reference for example?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover pretty sure a late war livery would work (assuming that’s what it already has?) since the Zuikaku is in her ‘44 configuration
@TemporaryReplacement Yep lol
But I need a white Zero livery
@TheUltimatePlaneLover yeah, you can act like swarm zeros came directly from Zuikaku or something for example lol
@TemporaryReplacement Yep
Bet it'll be pretty insane when we have Swarm PEAs and Defensive AIs working together lol
@TheUltimatePlaneLover that’s good to hear
@TemporaryReplacement That's a good measure ngl
Good news is, I'll have to use my swarm version of the Zero anyways in order to avoid the instant death cannons and land safely, so that probably won't be an issue since I'll be undetectable (even though I've only posted the Swarm P-39 in unlisted, I actually have made Swarm Variants for all of my PEAs, the only exceptions so far being the P-51D, J2M3, and Me 262 A-1a BK-5)
@TheUltimatePlaneLover it’s possible, although it’ll be hard since I’ve made it so that the AI automatically maneuvers when you get close enough
(Made it that way assuming the player is trying to bomb/torpedo bomb it)
@TemporaryReplacement
Basically the Defensive IJN:
MOAR!!
MOAR!!!!
Can't wait for Zuikaku, dare I ask though, can I land my Zero on it?
