If you haven't had an account on the same computer before, you're trial will begin the first time you log into an arena, excluding H2H.  You will then have two weeks free to try the game and explore.  When your two weeks are over, a pop up menu will show up when you click on an arena to enter and the menu will ask you if you want to subscribe.

How much does the came cost per month? Doesn't seem to be in the FAQ. Also, is there a link to any X45 button setting recommendations? Has anybody seen anything like that? Just wondering how other people bind things.

14.95 US?!??!  Seems like a little too much for a game of this quality. I know with that much money you could play much better online games. World of Warcraft, Dark Age of Camelot, World War 2 Online is only 12.99 US per month.  I seriously hope you are wrong.

Really?  I think its a great bargain for a game of this high quality - just 50c a day for unlimited play, as well as excellent support!  After all, it used to be $29.95 a month....  :)

$14.95 is not very expensive at all considering your able to fly a multitude of different aircraft in a arena with HUNDREDS of other people. Yes some of the graphics cant compare to other games you pay less for. But, the quality and ability to fly almost life-like aircraft from WWII in scenarios puts all other games in the dust.

You cannot compare AH to these other games. AH2 is a high quality multi-player online "Flight Simulator"! Flight Simulation takes way more computing power to produce than any other type of game. (the floating point math to model flight are astounding) If AH were to put the graphics into AH that you see in these other games most people would not be able to run it. I have flown many other flight simulators both online and box(offline) and this is the absolute best by far!

If what you are looking is an online "GAME" to play with cool graphics then go somewhere else. If you are looking for a realistic WWII flight simulation, with high quality flight models and combat between others of the same desires then this is the place to be.

@ $14.95/month it is a real bargin!

Well, if $2 US per month, or ~ 7 US pennies a day is going to make the decision for you maybe you'd be better off spending some of your playing time picking up returnable bottles from the roadside for a while.

After all, pick up two bottles, get 10 cents back and you're good to go for a whole day!

Good luck to ya!

A  "Homeless,  Will work for food"  sign,  would probably cover the extra expense.  May have to lay off the game for only one day,  to pay for the cardboard and perment marker.   Check out behind a office depot you could probably find these tools for free.

........not to mention one of the best, closest knit communities out there, in AH2 and in individual squads. Ive played others and you dont get a built in bunch of friends that love to see you succeed in the game. Even if they are nits and r00ks. :D

to the community!

p.s. I got a box you can use for your sign.....oh....and a sharpie.....

Question, please.

If you have not played this game how can you make any comparison to cost and playability?

You have 2 weeks in which to give it a try. If at the end of that time you find it not to your liking then no harm done.

Also, WW2 online was $14.95 the last time I looked and has some war planes.

The other two games are MMORP's and not fighter sim games.  So you are talking apples and oranges.

Thanks for dropping by and don't hesitate to ask me for help.
