This is NOT one of those "HURRY UP" or "waaaa waaaa wwwaaaaaaa I want it now" posts. But I was wondering if there is an ETA available yet.

I was also wondering what the next 10 would be? Would it go by

A. Release date

B. Which planes are closest to being "finished"

C. Community vote

D. Keeping the packs balanced

E. "variants" before different planes

The first decision was easy, where do you go next.

I also want to commend you guys on the work you are doing, and the fact that you have stepped forward to do something that should have been done from the start.

I'm glad you posted this Bullet1187. All I could think of would be "Hurry Up!", "Waaaaa Waaaaa, I want it Now!"
I am glad that the Crew is working on this.

Heya guys...

I think you might be confusing the BP for DIME....they are not the same. DIME is a project where the original 10 planes are given the royal treatment and are brought up to current specs with those of the newer user-made planes. For the most part, DIME is on back burner until the BP comes out.

The BP is basically centered on getting a standard set of planes from each country available for online use. Each country has a set of fighters, fighter-bombers, and bombers (where available)-- and things are fixed like textures limits, obExplodes values (so the planes don't completely blow up in patch with one machine gun hit), etc... if you do a search here, you will find that list.

BP should be up for testing soon....soon being within a month or so--- most of the work is done, but getting it set up efficiently and effectively will take some time-- time that is worth it to avoid headaches to the user.

As far as DIME, Snickers is your man to ask about what the next 10 may be....but knowing what I know about the project, it will be worth it.
