I logged several hours on Aces High over the weekend, and I just gotta say -
WOOOO! I've never really done the flight sim thing, because I have never really had time and whenever i tried it was frustrating. With Aces High, though, I was able to start the 2 week temp online thing and get some help from a friendly pilot there. He helped me with some landing issues I was having (as in crashing), then let me shoot at him for awhile, giving me tips.
The next morning I couldnt wait to start. I got into the Training arena again, and asked if anyone wanted to duke it out with a rookie. Another self proclaimed rookie said sure and we spent the next half hour at least chasing each other around. Then, in the afternoon I went back and after awhile some of the more experienced pilots changed to Rooks and we had a blast trying to shoot them down.
I love this game. If I can afford the $15 a month to keep the online thing going, I will.
Thank you.
