so what is this game a FLIGHT SIM OR A COMBAT SIM
« on: February 04, 2004, 01:18:41 PM »
we all know that this game is WW2 based and its lean to the flight sim but its got GV's ships  and this game looks like it could start going more into the ground war which would turn it more into a WW2 combat sim and not just a combat flight sim


i ask 2 things

is this a combat flight sim still?

and do you think this game should go into ground combat more with new tanks gvs ships and one day troop combat?

Combat Flight Sim.  GV's are more of a side show to me.

I have two answers:

This is still a combat flight sim, but that aspect is slipping fast.

I will play offline air combat games before I will get into driving tanks or boats.  If Hitech could un-do the gvs and ships, so that no one ever knew they existed (by use of a mass Vulcan mind warp, for example), I would encourage him to do so.

Didn't mean to offend you.  I mean yes, it is both a flight sim and a combat sim.  Use it anyway you like.

I'll go read the post again now

AH is a game using decently simulated WWII aircraft for all sorts of human players to engage in PVP air & ground combat set in a fantasy environment.

The correct answer to this question is that this is a Hobby.

Its a video game, but without the "3 tokens $1" sign.

Well, I wouldn't!  I very much enjoy the GVs and ships and spend as much time (if not more) in as I do flying (bombers only).  I think of AH as a Combat Sim.....  :p

Well Before the Large Maps and the Zazen Tactics:D

It was a Combat Flight Sim.  Big, nasty, great furballs.

Now it is mostly just a Flight Sim with some sporadic combat here and there.
