With the release of V1.05 I believe that AcesHigh is now %100 certifiably awesome!

Best online WW2combat experience available.

Ive been so damned busy having a blast flying F6Fs I havent been able to post this, so now is the time.

Excellent top notch work EVERYONE at HTC!

Salute ->, Happy New Year
and Thanks,

Yeager

Seconded!

 My wife is pissed at me  for having spent all my available free tiem last week flying/fighting online.

 Gonna have to make it up to her.  Should I get here an account of her own??

With 1.05 Aces High models all general aspects of war: Air, land, sea. Now it is all just bit of tweaking and adding more nice features

I've had some of the best times in a WW2 flight sim since the release of this version, even with the little bugs that irratate me.  Simply awesome!  And the .50 cals dispersion is spot on in my opinion.

<S> to HTC, excellent work once again!

Even with the current bugs/flaws/inbalances that I'm sure will be pointed out before this thread dies, 1.05 is by far and away the best release of AH yet.

Frankly, I'm quite amazed that HTC has gotten such a major upgrade under control so fast.  2 days and 3 patches... incredible.  Seems like they are really getting the hang of this programming stuff

I've really been enjoying the new version too.  

Also, place me in the "Pissed Wife" column.

I LOVE 1.05!!! Just like Hangs post talks about flying through formations of bombers in my P51 pulling escort duty and seeing the 88mm flak going off all over the place.

I am very pleased.   I love the carrier aspect and how much of the "mindless furball" action it adds that I so crave.   I am also very pleased with the quick response in the way of patches.

I will go further.... I like the way the fifties hit right now.   I have been flying both the Hellcat and the D Hog and even the sissy p51 a little.

When the version first came out I couldn't fire the guns without a total lockup.... A day later a patch fixed it.   Then I could fire but got error messages and I suspect, lost packets.   It was fixed allmost at once.  Hard to squeak about that kind of performance from a company.

Even the idiotic perk system is "working" at this point... It is working like a "score modifier" making people try some of the less popular planes.   I will like it until they actually have some use for all those perk points.
