As far as the hooks ... I checked with all the guys and they use nothing but stainless ... infection should not be a problem.

Hehehe, I've got a problem then. You saw how hard I swallowed the damned things, was hoping for regular hooks so they'd eventually corrode!!!

Sorry Slap, I haven't been in AH for a couple weeks. Been trying out WWIIOL. I'll try and get into AH this weekend.

Hey Manx how do you like WWII online compared to AH?

hehe iv made a monster thread:p

first off im not telling somebody not to fly a spitfire or a la7 who got the idea i was saying that

but when i get CO alt in anyplane you rooks just run for the first time last week i had spitfires runing from me alot in my yak and there was to many spitrunners to call it bingo ammo fuel on everone

and what were they rooks

most of the rooks are high alt flying boom zoom planes nothing wrong with that but but 100% of the time they ran when i got CO alt and i had shoot there tail off to many times and i dont fly a spitfire or nik or any great turners much

you guys can fly as high as you want just leting everbody know that most of you are bad pliots so you must climb to high alts in high speed aircraft to make up for your lack of 1on1 skill

know im not saying ther bad pliots for because of nothing

evertime i was able to force the 1v1 iv won with ease its been like a joke there skill was like the H2H players

now the KNIGHT's have my respect they fight my best fights were KNIGHT's
they are fighters were most of the rooks struggle to even make the fight longer then 10 secs

if i had to leave the bish i would join the nights

Generalizations are great indications of ignorance.

Hey Manx how do you like WWII online compared to AH?

I'm enjoying it Slapshot, but I also enjoy AH. It does need a fair bit of work to the flight model but it has some realism ideas that AH misses out on. The other day I had a blade of my prop shot off, whereas a split second later all I had left was the spinner. The damage graphics aren't there yet, but by the sound and control of the plane I knew it was what was hit. Next patch I guess visual damage will be added. It also has engine management, but dosen't include fuel management. The crash to ground model is poor but somehow they've made it so both planes experience collisons in rams. It takes a pretty hefty computer to play successfully though, but it's enjoyable.

What I enjoy is the immersion part of the game. Where air to air battles fall behind AH, the Air to Ground component, Ground to Ground component, and Sea to Ground and Air components all exceed what Aces High has put forth so far. For me, it's a good break from the same old. Plus, when half my squad came here, another group went to WWIIOL to setup the squad there.

By the way, this isn't a ploy to get AH people to go there. Fly where you want, and have fun when you can.

Absolutely agreed.

Would be wonderful if we could have best of both sims: WWIIOL beats hands down AH in anything involving ground ops, be it CAS, Vehicles or infantry, and it is a lot more immersive. AH makes WWIIOL's flight model look pathetic.

Pity for us there is no way of getting both worlds in a single pack.

I guess it is the fact that AH is stuck in this middle territory with a great flight model and shtty ground game.

It seems the majority of the people want to strat and play the ground game, with less empahsis on the AtoA game. I guess that is why the maps reflect farther bases and dont foster a good AtoA furball type game play anymore.

Manx, how is the AtoA in WWII online. Do they have a concept of a furball? How does the AtoA compare to AH in the sense of how long you fly to find a fight, and the number of enemy cons fighting at one time? etc.

Ok, let me get this straight...

I shouldn't fly a Spit cause that makes me a Spit Dweeb. (there's been plenty of threads about that)

I shouldn't fly LA7s because it so easy and can outrun everything else. (plenty of threads about this too)

I shouldn't fly Niks or P38s because they are uber. (these treads go on and on)

I shouldn't TnB because that's for beginners. The real aces of the game BnZ. (wars break out over this)

Now I'm being told I shouldn't fly P51s or Doras because alt monkeys are cowards and don't want to fight. Or maybe the idea here is that I should fly a Mustang as if it were a Spit or FM2. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense!

It sounds to me like we have a lot of really bored people playing this game that should probably move on to something else. As for me, I'm so average that I get excited just to fly a plane the way it's supposed to be flown and if I RTB in it that's a huge success story.

When I "arrive" and am so good that all I can do to bring some excitment to this game is criticize everyone else, I hope I'll have the discipline and grace to just quit and spare everyone the grief.

Like I said, this is truly the silliest thread I have read in a long while.

Talk about walking on eggshells, lol

Any rooks wanna volunteer to take this dweeb into the DA. He needs some enlightenment.

Steve screenies:

1) 11 rooks vs 5 knits only 1 has alt on you
2) 8 rooks vs 6 knits only 2 have alt on you
3) 9 rooks vs 7 knits and you are on deck
4) 14 rooks vs 5 knits and only 1 has alt on you
5) 18 rooks vs 7 knits and you on deck

errrrrr.... what was your point?
