Would there be an interest in a training arena
« on: January 17, 2000, 01:34:00 PM »
Im STEPPING WAY WAY OUT on a limb here, but let me know if you would be interested in Training in a training environment.  If enough people reply maybe I could ask HT for an arena for training.  I see more and more people asking for help and its difficult at best with 100+ online chatting, talking, yelling etc etc.  

There are several experianced people out there that could help, and once we got a place we could try to get some much needed help.  

I can do some off line but it would be much easier in a set place.


HT, Im not stepping on toes Honestly, Im just  trying to get help to the newbies. Is there a possibility of bringing up an arena set asside for training only.  If you have plans and dont want to reveal them right away I understand.


And people, please DONT Mail HT Creations people about this.  Im doing this on my own to try and help out.

 Absolutly! I have been flying sims for a few years now but the learning curve for Aces High is steep. I discover new tricks all the time but its a slow process w/o some tips/guidance. It would also be great for practice and dueling as well,in Warbirds the EZ Targets go to the P/D arena weekly and spend a few hours killing each other-it`s a hoot! If you get one set up I`ll be there for some training or be a drone for ya.

Yes, definately.

There have been a few new folks I have attempted to do a bit of 1v1 training with.  It is really difficult to do it in the arena, as a third party will always come looking after a bit.

Would be.

I did some buff training flights but the 'main' arena is a hard trainer  

Otoh, flying buffs is considered too easy anyways...

btw, I don't think that the HTC crew would consider a training arena as a vital part of the beta test. It would fit into the game when it goes pay, but not earlier.

I'd love a training area where someone could help me learn to fly the fighters.  The bombers I got, but I need _alot_ of help in the fighters =)

Training area would be nice.

I learned the bombers on my second day, but to this day(a week) I still havent mastered the fighter.  I have gotten 1 or 2 awesome kills in fighters though.

We got a training arena straight out of the box: 8 player free multiplay!  

Of course, training sessions would have to be agreed on in advance, but thats only a good thing.  Well planned is... and so on...

Btw, does the 8 player game work yet?  I haven't tried it
