Don't shoot me but,

I selected two obvious and a third that folks might not agree with:

1) Jump in Jump-out
2) Better server host controls

and.....

3) MMO - yes I know that the bandwidth requirements of ROF if really extrapolated to MMO would shut down the World Wide Web as we know it - but I believe that development along these lines would probably provide a more efficient netcode.

I was tempted to select multi-player aircraft - however, even with that option in Il2 - I can say that I really never used it much.  Perhaps .00005% of my flying time.

Don't you ever watch "Southpark" ?

Massively Multipayer Onlinegames...

World of Warcraft

You know - 10's of thousands of players - "alternate universe".........

Of course, ROF has such tiny bandwidth requirements - it's perfectly suited to this...

Jump in/jump out play     

Improved UI    

Multi-person flyable planes, I love this for training, I've long for this for years.

I thought about the Hot thing, but I've never done it so I'm not sure how bad or good it is.


In-game microphone support I'd pick this if we had tracks. It's also a very good tool, and it's a great shortcut for the Pilot when making training tracks. No need for video skills, just pilot, and the ability to speak, and record at the same time. I do it in IL2 for JO studies and homework. It keeps my track mine, No one is able to remove the voice and my skin and turn it in as theirs.

Well, the poll ran for 24 hours and got 115 votes. 1/3 of all posters/voters want jump in/jump out ability. Like I said in the beta forum, I'm not surprised. How many people don't even make it to the forums and if they do can't/don't find their particular thread-of-interest.

The consensus number is higher than 1/3 I'd wager, but that's still respectable. This subject has gone from unspeakeable, to listed in a wishlist, to beta and public discussion and hopefully now to fast-track development.

I guess time will tell. Hopefully only a short period of time.
