Play Il2 AEP for 8 weeks - Ah2 is pretty easy after that.


     I'll second that! I've been playing Il-2 AEP for a little while and there are no icons. You have to have excellent aircraft recongnition in that game. No little red flags to help you out. No sight directly behind you. It's a tougher game and much more realistic than AH1 or 2.

:eek:

Tour 53 includes the last several days of AH 2, just don't see how 3 hrs with AH2 as the MA gives anyone a place to comment on game play. I think his intend was to be a smart- _ _ _. I hope it is tweaked, maybe it will be fun again, the point of this thread, fun again or I look for another game to play.

Yep, the would be whinning hard. They don't realize how easy AH is compared to Il-2. The graphics and "flybys" are very cool and reason enough to try it out.

If AH2 goes out of business, so does HTC.  

AH1 is dead, get used to it.

Unlike you, there were quite a few of us that played in the beta regulary.  We did this with the knowledge that AH1 is going to go away soon and decided to get a leg up by seeing if our systems were up to par and to get used to the new changes.  So guys like Sikboy have all the standing they need to comment on AH2.


If you want another game to play, I think EA still has Bunny Love, it might be up your alley.  I would recommend the Relaxed Realism of Fighter Ace but I have a feeling from your stats in AH2, that Fighter Ace might be a little beyond your abilities.

Hmm, sounds like there are a couple improvements in the new version.  I'm a BnZ kinda guy mostly thriving on the quick get in, kill and get out tactics.  This new version sounds like it would be tougher for a guy like me?  I like realism, that's why I play.

I'll be waiting a couple months or better before coming back, wait till you guys online work the bugs out.  I remember the old AH rollouts of the past.  Since Steve has quit, perhaps I'll steal his handle when I come back? :lol

while they are at it I think they should do away with the stall limiter also :rolleyes:.  Its like having training wheels on.
And stop all this nonsense so we can get a new post on that one. That would be a bigger post than this. One thing for sure is this post is very fun had lots of laugh's reading it thanks guys.

Sorry dude, but Sikboy has done more to help this community than you will ever do.  Quit yer *****ing about AH1 and get over it.  Ah1 is dead.  The new regime has begun.

Screaming for HTC to "change or I will delete my account" never has had much effect on Dale's business decisions from what I can tell, but knock yourself out.  You may be the first.  :rolleyes:

And before you go running off to check my stats, I haven't played any quantifiable amount of time since about August of last year.  But that was my choice.  I was burnt out and found something else to do until AH2 came out.  I flew it once or twice to make sure I could run it on my current system and it worked just fine so I snuck back into the background to wait for its release.  Now its here and my time in the MA should increase a little.

On the plus side I can now feel safe going AFK for a smoke flying around Rooklandia without fear of being shot down.

The stall limiter is there to aid new players in getting use to the flight model.  Any 'vet' that uses the stall limiter is only hindering himself and will not give a pilot any advantage over those that don't use it.

I think I should start by saying that I hope the likes of Steve and Sooner, and all those who are considering leaving the game, stay. Even those whom I have little or no use for in game, even the one guy I actually ejected from an event (can't rember the name), all of you. I really do hope that you choose to stay here and play AHII.

But that's AHII. Moving forward. If however, you are unable or unwilling to make the change, then that's OK, sub optimal perhaps (as levi would put it) but OK none the less. Play, or Don't. It's not just a matter of whether or not I think Dale and Co. will respond to the threats of quitting as much as I do not believe that it is correct the thing to do.

But what is really frosty is having an imbittered comunity up in arms about the transfer. If you're reporting bugs or having technical problems that's one thing. If you're against concious gameplay decisions, I feel that's another. There are other sims out there, and each sim caters to a different group of people.

Like I said, I hope that you guys all stay, but barring that, I hope you have fun playing Fighter Ace.

As for my playing habits, I've been in the Beta arena all month (and on and off ever since the enabled the Yaks) I'm not sorry that I haven't played enough since Friday to satisfy your requirements, however I would point out two things. 1. I did spend all of my "game time" on Saturday working on a Skin for my favorite plane in AHII. And 2. You don't need a full arena to know whether or not you like the new ICON system.

Thanks to those who stepped up to vouch for me, its good to feel loved :p
