This is a thread to post your suggestions for the next fhsw versions. you can posts pics,videos or other stuff of vehicles, tanks, plans, ships... wicht you want to see in the next fhsw version! the FHSW devs will fallow this thread tensely
Dieser thread ist gedacht um euch die möglichkeit zu geben fahrzeuge, panzer, flugzeuge, waffen... die ihr in der nächsten fhsw version sehen wollt zu posten. die fhsw deevs werden diesen thread gespannt verfolgen und versuchen eure vorschläge umzusetzten
Please keep in mind that EVERY additional vehicle in FHSW extends the overall loading time of ALL maps!
Add at least a short reason why this vehicle should be added and not just blindly copy/paste everything that you have found somewhere on the net. When you are about posting a request, think it twice whether excessive time spent for map loading is worth of all less significant prototypes found on the Internet, even if none of maps use them. The more doesn't stand for better, in this case. Thanks for understanding.
All suggestions so far (collected by Fritz Kempf) All crossed entries = already added in FHSw or planned in next version.
I like that a lot of tanks can spot targets for the artillery now, however to add some realism only tanks/APC's/etc. that really had a radio to communicate with the higher command should be able to spot targets for the artillery. Quite a few tanks have a cupola view now, also a nice addition. But: Some tanks didn't have one in RL but have a cupola view in FHSW, e. g. Ferdinand. And the T-34/85 had one in RL but not in FHSW. These little historical details are really important for me.
Related to my previous suggestion the commander (cupola view) should have the ability to spot targets for artillery (is already done in most tanks) but also spot targets for his gunner like in the Jagdtiger or T-35 (the little arrow icon on the minimap). One thought that randomly came to my mind is to add more usefulness to the marker pistol. One Ju 88 variant (placed on Arctic Convoy) can drop Star Shells which make some light but are also shown on the minimap. How about adding that minimap icon to the marker pistol? This way you could for example show your bomber pilots where they should drop their deadly load.
The Nahverteidigungswaffe was able to fire smoke rounds, too. Maybe it's possible to switch between smoke and HE grenade via up/down keys?
Tank physics: I have a feeling that some tanks accelerate way too fast, sure the Maus was able to go at 20 km/h but only on perfect conditions and definitely not within 1 second. I also think that the turret traverse speed was increased for most tanks in 0.5, it's a bit strange to see the IS-2/Tiger II/etc. rotating their turrets by 360° in seconds.
World of Tank introduce again a new version. This time they have add some awsome stuff! Like the Crash sound of a tank! You hear smash the tank on the ground when he drive from cliffs and also if he jump over hills!
Bring back the FH maps like Road to Ramelle, Attack on Carentan, Market Garden, Bastogne, Fall Gelb. They only take up a few KB because they're already in FH, so I don't know why anyone would delete these maps. More maps is always better, right? They also look really good compared to the fugly (sorry) shadeless FHSW maps like Gazaps and Sumosalami or whatever it's called. For the love of god please add shadows to your maps! I know you can do it, Gela - Operation Husky has them and it looks gorgeous! Also Berlin Outskirts needs to come back, it's one of the best maps for our player numbers. (added note from Fritz Kempf: Hell yeah! :P )
survive the depth bombs attack while you use a Submarine.... in the past, you can survive a depth charges attack from destroyers when you use the Submarine and dive depth enough! Now, a few versions meanwhile, you can't survive it anymore and that is pitty! I want to play like the movie Das Boots!
I also wish they made more Italy campaign maps! Britain vs. Italy, Canada vs. Italy, Britain vs. Germany, America vs. Italy, America vs. Germany (all in Italy of course). Maps like battle of Anzio and Monte Cassino would be good for FHSW. I hope with the introduction of Brazilian forces they will include more Italy maps with them in it.
at the time frogmen suits, kugelpanzer, even certain types of tank traps were all very closely guarded secrets, They should also add the welrod pistol..
This would be very interesting to see in the game, it could be like okha, but instead of being inside it you could fly it from co-pilots seat of heinkel, so like okha crossed with goliath, would be very cool to see on rheinubung...
@Simo: You can use Hs 293 on "Rheinübung". I can show you next time. This is a gaming community. People come here to relax. If you start an argument you will get kicked.
OH! im not sure if they have these yet but they should add DFS 230 gliders, with rockets for take off, could be like how the ME 163 komet has a limited ammount of jet fuel, could be used in battle of france, or we could even make an objective map of the rescue of mussolini
I would love to see some more music in the game. In my opinion the booting screen song is becoming odd... sounds like nothing. What about some individual music for the variety of battle theatres?
Or music on some of the maps. They could add this song from Battlestations: Pacific for a map like Leyte Gulf: http://youtu.be/lHHW9vtmejo
Just background sound for more atmosphere

What do you think of Crusader tank model ? It's a very common tank, yet it doesn't look great in comparison to other tanks such as PzIII... or when you compare them with the FH2 version. But I really hate the version we currently have, just here : http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb201....III.jpg So much details are lacking :s
M10 and M36 are not that great either, and they should also get rid of the vanilla sherman, it makes me sick :s

Not add in FHSW - so far i think - is the Mauser C96 semi-automatic pistol. Design dates from 1895, this pistol saw a lot of wars and it was a fine piece of modern weaponry (then of course). The first pistols are semi. But after WW1, in the 30's, the pistol can be used as semi or automatic and this with a wooden stick. During WW2, a lot of country's have use the pistol. Like the ingame nations Nazi-Germany, Finland, Sovjets (Bolo variant), UK, Poland and Italy. For me, its a missing pistol in the weaponry of FHSW!

Ive been thinking lately, they should add bicycles, they were surprisingly common during the war for getting troops to the front, the japanese even had entire bicycle regiments..
OH and before i forget, is the British 22,000lbs(10,000 KG) Grand Slam bomb in the game already? it really should be, at least on bombing the reich or something... for balance it could made only to go off if dropped from a relatively high altitude, so its accuracy wouldnt be spot on.
One last thing i think would be cool to include in SAS kits is the Welrod single shot silenced pistol.
oh and i just read about this, which could be made like a goliath kit, basically its an unmanned b-17 bomber packed with explosives and controlled via radio, very cool stuff! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Aphrodite
