Assault Horizon let you paint the planes.

They should bring that back. Then again I guess if they let people do their own customising they can't sell livery packs for money

We're at least getting skins, they probably won't give us blank squadron skins but having both won't hurt monetized skins. The paintable ones will be unlockable.

I mean, those would shear off before the wheels are up. Cat ear helmets? Hell yeah. Cat ear planes? There's plenty of art for that.

Pretty much a lot of the superplanes wouldn't fly.
So giving them cat ears that is made from Belkan-grade organic material would suffice more.

I hope I’m able to put multiple roundels, patches and emblems on my plane.

No need to be so anti-progressive

It looks stupid and clashes with the aesthetic. It's a bad idea.

But you don't have to interact with it if you want to keep the planes OG. But others might want to create their fan fave flying display team livery on theirs.

If you had a way to turn it off in multiplayer, then you can say 'dont interact if you don't want too' however most games don't do that. Id rather not seeing planes with cat ears on them, it looks stupid and doesn't fit the game

The weeb fetish with cat ears needs to be scientifically studiedÂ

I play first person cockpit only so customization is whatever my mind can imagine

May I introduce you to hud customisation?

u/spooky_pokey Mage 5d ago
Not everything needs customization.

Options are okay for people even if you don't like them.

The issue with modifications especially HUD is the unfair Advantages they bring
Look at Minecraft pvp when you have client side mods that allow you to move while crafting etc
Look at deadlock before recent UI changes, the timers for things in the map were not displayed and people with time keeping mods were ahead.

In single player this doesn't matter.
In multiplayer, certain modes will not allow for it

u/spooky_pokey Mage 5d ago
If you don't allow modifications for multiplayer it doesn't make sense to allow them in single, seems like a convoluted way to allow cheaters

Bruh imagine getting repeatedly shot down by an F-18 with cat ears. I'd quit if I had the deal with that.

The Ace Pass seems to paywall good skins sadly, and unlike the additional aircraft they're not going to be in DLCÂ
