Only problem with FB and hyperlobby is its very difficult to find a decent game, ie 95% play with major relaxed realism.

And the waiting involved hunting for a decent game is mind numbing.

For DF the GreaterGreen or the VirtualPilots servers are always good. But going in alone can be a problem. The best thing to do is either squad up and fly together or atleast fly with friends.

WT

Well next release should have 2 p51d, p51b, p51c with malcom hood and possibly an a36 or early mustang.

Hyper lobby wasn't my cup of tea. Had my fill of LW Iron by that time anyway and found you had two camps. Relaxed realism or full bore no icon crap. You don't go in alone and the guys I went in with were "full" realism junkies.

Very pretty, iffy connects when I played a year ago.

Just finished a free comped account at WB that was good for a couple of months I think.

Flew for 17 sorties over a few days and cleaned my hard drive. I spent 5 years there but it leaves me cold. There are no Ya Ya's there anymore.  Ya Ya's left when WBIII came out.

I left WB shortly after WB3 came out. Does that make me a Ya Ya? What is a Ya Ya?

I left it because they seemed to be in terminal financial decline, and because of the 95MB download which I was expected to do by modem. (No ADSL back then) And it was full bore no icons - Dotbirds. And there was a myriad of installation hitches. I put myself in the place of a new player: Do I download this 95MB pig and pay (then) $24.95/mo, and endure months of installation problems with no support from the supplier? Or why don't I try this other game (AH, 24MB download (then) and $14.95/mo)? I tried Brand-A, and had it up and running in 20 minutes - better graphics, better sound effects, MUCH better connects.

The choice I made was one of life's easier decisions. :aok But I do miss the WB community as it was then.

I guess I must have been gazing into the old crystal ball back thern.

Left Brand W some 4 years back. While I miss some of the people I left behind I don't miss the sim, the people producing it, or their support staff.


I quickly made enough new friends in AH to replace those I left behind.

Brand W had been promising WBIII for a year plus when I left. It only took em what, another 2, 3 years to get it out.



Thanks but no thanks, I'll stick with HTC.


As for IL2FB if they had to make massive multiplayer work (Like AH)
It wouldn't look like that.

You can do things for 32 player limit
that you can't even consider for 700 online at one time in one place.

Apples & oranges folks.

Warbirds 34 (including Dawn of Aces and Armored Assault)

Fighter Ace 47

and ...

Aces High 206

I think I'll stick with Aces High.


So that was what, 200 Rooks 3 Bishops and 3 Knights?
