I think thats a tough one FD.

If you look at the way drones behave on land, then try to convert them to take off from a CV. I think you'll find its going to be a LOT of work to get it to work right.

Of course I'd LOVE to see HT prove me wrong & release them with the next patch.

But I'm not sure even he has figured out a way out of this box.

GhostH, we all ready have airplanes taking off from abreast of the cv... so why not have the drones take off from the same "point".

Beetle sir, tis a GAME we play. What the heck did you expect BUT gaminess?

Fighters didn't fly around by themselves either.  I want all fighters to a have a finger four formation option; one of 'em gets shot down, I can just jump in the next one.

Why should the bombers be the only ones to get 3 lives to crap away down in the weeds?

Beetle... Do you think before you write something? Or is talking out of your rear something normal for you?  

Dont be upset because you are you. The real tragedy here is the fact that you try so desprerately to fit in.

FYI Mr Beetle sir.

Please realise that I am NOT Morph, I've been here LONGER than morph. I was here before YOU got here.

You can ask anyone else who's been here since beta who I am and they'll tell you.
Same name, same acct, no BS.

Next, I expect you to pony up 15 $, get back online, come into the DA so I can shoot you down for calling me morph.

Consider yourself slapped!

As the injured party I get to choose weapons. Yak9T's should do nicely.

Next time watch who you smear with that brush!

I'm not Morph, I'm not a morph groupy., I'm not a morph wannebe.

I'm GhostH and you sir are an oscar.

dangit all Ghosth, you forgot to smile at the end of your last post!  :D
"When one considers just what they should say to a new pilot who is logging in Aces High, the mind becomes confused in the complex maze of info it is necessary for the new player to know. All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC

They're right you know. Humour doesn't travel well, and even the spelling gets corrupted! You missed my meaning completely.

You see in Britain in the post war years and right up till 1984, we had a comedy duo known as Morecambe and Wise. They were a pair of stand up comics who specialised in one line gags like this:
  • Ernie Wise: "The invisible man's outside!"
  • Eric Morecambe: "Tell him I can't see him"
Corny, but good.

Anyway, one of their lines, when a question asked to one person was answered by someone else was "you said that without moving your lips!". My comment was addressed to Morph, but you answered it - hence my response. Get it now?

:aok

Hmmm, pretty lame comedy.

In the good ol US of A we just batlantly call others out for the fools they are. In the process of doing that there is much comedy to be had.

Its understandable that you wouldnt have seen that all along the joke was on you. :)

Btw, why do you even bother posting here anymore? Honestly...

You quit the game, you gave up on it. So what does any of this matter to you? It shouldnt. Or are you just that lonely that you haven't anything better to do?

I really wish you could see what a fool you have made of yourself in the past day or so.
