You can call this you want.  

I started flying AH about a little over a year ago.  Never flown a flight Sim before in my life.  I had all making of a great Sim.  Lots of planes to fly.  Lots of targets to hit (which actually made a difference if you hit them or not).   This made for strategic attacking.  Which I think is fun.  A lot of people do not so just shut up and let me continue.  

AH2 comes out.  My computer could handle it.  I'm getting great FR.  Gunnery changed.  Big deal, just takes some getting used to.  Added Skins..  Awesome.  Now my squadies can fly our own plane.   Towns are hardened up.   I like this - makes for base takeovers to be a little tougher.   "Strat" - what happen to this?   The one thing that could stop an offensive dead in it tracks was taken away.  Being a ROOK I hated this.  But the BISH and KNITS were good at it.  When they got rolling they could stop our HORD dead for sectors.   We may not have liked it but it worked.   So I thought it was a good feature.  Strategic targets - Are there any more targets to hit that even make a difference.  Why are they even in the game anymore except to build perks.  Perk planes - I agree with this 100%.  Makes ya have to work a little bit to fly uber planes.   I think it works out nicely that they are cheaper for the weaker/losing sides.  But now ENY plane limitation.  The side(s) out-numbering the lowest team is now limited to the planes they can fly by the ENY value of the Plane and or Vehicle.  Yes/No I agree and disagree in so many different ways.  Personally my squad night is basically done.    Hell I think most of my squad has packed up and left because of this.   We fly P-51D's.  Enough said.   But on top of all of this ENY.  The Weaker teams are still allowed to get all of the uber planes and at little to no cost.   I mean if there going to take up the Uber planes against the ENY limited side at least make them pay a fair cost for them.   I say if you’re going to take planes away because of ENY, start raising perk cost for the losing sides at the same time.   Make them still have to work to fly the uber planes.  

Well that's about it.  I now give this to the rest of you to R&R over.

I sitt here on the board reading all night long. Till I fall asleep wake up and do it again. I been doing it for a month. Lol My cable just got cut off to so now even worse. Man I would play ah2 if I only got 15fps(if it is playable).

It's not a solution but more of a problem. Makes no difference to me, I fly early war stuff but it's gotta suck for Pony squads.

There is a better answer to be uncovered.  I'd be patient, it will come out.  What's it been a couple of weeks ??

It will work out.

Maybe you should learn paragraph breaks.

to seperate thoughts and such.

makes reading on a minoter easire for all.






get the idea?

sry but i can't read that one long run on sentence stuff where there is no break in the thought and it just keeps going and going never breaking up the monotany and making it diffucult to follow line afte line going and going and just keeping the "rant" going getting more PO'd with the next word you type and not thinking a bit about who is going to read that big giagantic "paragraph" if you really want to call it that always wondering if you scroll down will there be a break in the lines so it is somewhat easier to read for the average person and get a simple statment of what is annoying the other player let alone a summization for the possible solution or at least and final comment on the "problem" to sum it up and let the reader decide if they want to read the whole entire post and understand the perspective of the complaintent.
I don't know what to put here yet.

Although this may be true, if a squad was build around the idea of flying ponies and that same squad wants to fly for Rook (or Bishop or Knight) exclusively, then the ENY thing hoses them up.  I don't lame anyone for being ticked over this.

Just keep saying to yourself over and over:  "We are paying for access to the arenas, not to specific planes."

(of course, I don't think I would be paying if there was nothing here I wanted to fly...hmmm, go figure)

you guys are wrong in the "paying for access to the arena's, not the plane set ."


We have the limited plane set in the CT and the SEA arena's for that .

In the MA i pay for the full planeset even though i have to pay in perks for the more exotic /uber rides .

Roscoroo those arena's for those few who like that and pay.  While true in a sense the CT is a whole different ball game.  the ma is a mix of all countries the CT is a mix or 2 during a specific battle.  you pay for arena access.  you can not believe that if you, but as more evidence against you.  you can go fly 75 planes in h2h.  again that is just reinforcing my statement that you pay for arena access.

your not making any sense at all skull .

 I myself pay to fly all the different planes in the MA . if i want the limited set i'll fly one of the other arena's  ... do you get it yet or are you being so thick that you wont look at it from my point of view .

there is no evidence against me "Period"

Actually HT web page -

"If at the end of the
trial period you decide not to subscribe, there is
nothing to cancel.  You can continue to use your account
with our free 8-person multiplayer option without ever
paying us a cent."

Later on -
"An unlimited usage subscription is US $14.95 per month."

Obviously the first part relates to the arena, the next part taken in the context of the rest of the site obviously also refers to arena/game access and NOT individual planes, vehicles etc..

You should talk to skuzzy or at least post on the support forum about how your computer is set up. You should be getting 80fps with that rig. Did you install the lastest drivers for your vid card? Did you install directx 9? Something is wrong here.

that works great for a pony squad, what about a P-38 squad(like mine)?  
i dont mind the new eny sys thingie, but it does get to me just a little when i cant fly the ONLY P-38 in the plane set.  Im hoping they fix that though ;) .

Unlimited to me means NOT limited, period. Usage means use of the planes and playing the game. Why on earth would I pay to come into an arena if it had no planes? The argument about arena acess holds no water. Unlimted usage is not what I'm getting for my $14.95
