Hi guys,
Would you show interest in purchasing a "WOFF Gold"?
Based on WOFF Expansion, this may include for example;
All the current Add-ons New features for example less top Aces - just the essential top 100-200 Improved DM, Extra aircraft (maybe some AI craft only), Enhanced terrain and scenery, Shipping, Increased ground activity in the theatre, Other enhancements.
This is not a wish list thread so please don't add comments about what you'd like to see or what you think there might be in there. This is a general question if there is interest in us doing this.
Thanks. Didn't see this had actually finished and been updated. Looks like overwhelming support for a new WOFF GOLD. Hopefully it comes true. I'd love to see the new DM and "other enhancements." Extra aircraft and increased ground and shipping activity could be cool too. Might be a very good New Year! Thanks for all who participated and to OBD for looking into making this happen.

Of the features listed, what are you guys most excited to see? For me personally it is: 1. Improved Damage Model 2. Extra Aircraft (extra AI only would be fine) 3. Enhanced terrain and scenery I'm not sure how much better the scenery can get, but if anyone can improve it further, it would be Winder. Shipping and increased ground activity would also be great if Winder works his magic and figures out how to do it without eating up too many CPU cycles. I would love anti-shipping missions!

Desires? Some yet missing flyable fighter aircraft, like the Roland D.VI or the Hanriot would be great. The latter would even allow for Belgian units. Several missing two-seaters at least as unflyable models. (Can unflybles still be developed into flyables later?)
Most desired scenery improvement: historically correct airfields (the most famous ones).

My main wants are..
More planes
Improved damage model including holes in Hi Res
A little more ground activity..maybe more varied arty explosions, so we have shrapnel burst aswell as different size HE explosions.
Maybe some activity around the airfield aswell.
Finally some added features to the Squadron aspect.
Maybe being able to set your route\waypoints.
Some special events like Flu epidemic and sickness, or a pilot in the squadron moral drops after hearing news of the death of his brother on the front. Things like that.
Maybe have your own aircrew who get better at fixing and tweaking your plane as time goes on. If you bring your plane back in a bad state maybe an inexperienced aircrew might not do a great job and you find the plane underperforming or might even suddenly pack up altogether.
Constant patroling without a break should have the chance of a special event occuring where fatigue and stress will effect your flight performance until you have a break. Maybe at the start of your career this has a greater chance of happening where as mid career less chnace and then after a fair while at the front again start to become more likely to happen.
A diary that gets updated plus you cna also add to it if you want to. Not only gives details of missions but also things like recieving a letter or general mess room chat etc. Also mention pilots names who your are mates with. This will then give the player more of a role play feel and start to check how your mates doing etc. The diary cna also be the place the player checks to see how he is feeling and if stress is starting to tkae hold..i.e the fatigue event could soon be triggered if he doesn't have a break. Though this ma not be possible at the time.
Also bring back the replay feature.
Last but not least reduce the oxygen in your game room when at altitude and blast freezing cold air into your face and freezing your hands plus the odd squirt of oil!!

Extra Aircraft: Caudron G.4 Breguet 14 Hanriot Farman 2-Seater Airco DH.4 And maybe not the name WOFF Gold. That makes me think of the "Oldies But Goldies" bargain bin. Maybe some of the other names I've seen suggested like WOFF X, WOFF 3, or WOFF III might be better. WOFF 2 is a SUPER polished product that just came out about a year ago. Too early for the next version to have a bargain bin name IMO. And I hope "Less Top Aces" would be optional. All those thousands of add-on skins tied to, what, close to 1000 historical aces (I don't know how many WOFF currently has) are hugely interesting to me. Looking down the flight line at a guy that I've never heard of but who has HA next to his name and is flying a unique skin is the cats whiskers! I'm thinking Less Top Aces would mean less 1 to 1 ties to the skins already in the game. What would become of all those skins that are currently assigned to HA's? How would they come into gameplay - randomly assigned to the fictional pilots?

Why do you think the DM should be improved? Are you seriously looking at the bullet holes in your rig, when you are getting shot up??? The rounds they used back in those days were the same calibre as a rifle bullet, AFAIK. For this picture, Udet seems to have stuck cardbord rolls into the holes, to make them better visible in the photography. And I must say, I like the damage models they made, VERY much. They are so much more realistic than those permanently breaking-off wings in "another sim". Did you ever see the lovely details you get, when a wing does show damage in WOFF? Without stepping on you guys toes, I find, that the "rather limited resources of dev-power" should go into some much more important work, like additional planes (flyables and non-flyables), or historical airfields for example. Just my two cents.
