PhlyDaily. War Thunder's biggest YouTuber, has teamed up with the DevilDogGamer and played our game!

  He did a good job for someone who doesn't have a lot of experience with the game.  He obviously is not new to flight sims.  A little more practice and the two of them would be pretty dangerous.

Any publicity is good publicity.  For those who favor eye candy over game play....don't really need them:)

I saw this video last night also.  It popped up at the top of my YouTube feed, and I am not even a PhlyDaily suscriber, I just watch some of his videos.

46,000 views in just one day!  Offering PhlyDaily and DDG (DevilDogGamer) subs in exchange for at least one monthly video could be a really good marketing value, especially if they are asked to focus on aspects of gameplay that WT doesn't have, such as:

More Carrier Ops
Pick-up missions (using in game vox)
Base capture missions (featuring C47 and M3 troop drops)
Ship-to-Ship Naval Combat (8" and 5" gunning)
A good ol' fashioned furball at the DA lake
Organized Stategic Bombing Raids*

*They even mentioned wanting to do this in the video.  Planning a mission day specifically for them to participate would be great.

Keep an eye out for Phly and DDG guys, and help them do some of this stuff they don't see in WT!

For those of us playing this game for well over a decade, Aces High is more of a social club. The game just provides the framework. I keep logging in for the people and Pipz was the kind that you keep coming to meet again.
