This man speaks wisely.

Damn Hub stop playin over 12 hours at a time.He is welcome to an opinon as well as the rest of us,and how do you know he doesn't play in MA?With all these shade accounts floating around you never know.

ToD shall by the design has the different target audience.

Sure MA will stay. It may be even more people in MA when ToD arives (may be not at once, but after couple of months).

Success of ToD will depends on many factors. Despite it development takes so long, we still have high hopes for it, and trust HTC design. If it will be what I want and what I hope for, I will mainly fly it, keeping MA as a training arena. If it won't, I probably will cancel account, because I am burned out with MA and its gameplay model. MA is a great arcade arena, it has a lot of people, lot of good friends, great people, great pilots, often very fun fights, but just after 6 years in a game I simply can't motivate myself to fly seriously in it.

I feel the same way you do Fariz.

He has stated that he only plays H2H.

You must be kiding?! Axis vs Allies ?! AXIS planes are already mutilated, hadicaped , they fly like bricks, and this pach "fixed" the firepower,
I wonder how did Galand, Priller and many more shot down 50-60 spits, if the 109s,Fw190s were soo bad

They had too.Factor in the lack of good pilots on both sides.Those planes that you say suck so bad actually fly better then the old version of them did.

They are not bad GHI. They are good. Just use them accordingly -- start with alt advantage, attack while you have advantage, then, when you out of your advantage -- run.

I can't say much about the 109's. I like FW-190 for long time. In AH FW-190 never had a fair fighting chance, was never treated fair, EVER. Here if you are in a D9 you either run like a chicken or die. A8, you can't really call it a fighter. A5 is fun, but just compare it with it's contemporary enemies.
I used to play AH a lot, but Il-2, Forgotten battles, and the way that game evolved now is what made quit playing this game. In that game you always had a fighting chance in FW, If you meet an enemy at the same altitude you had a chance. Not here.
I just subscribed to AH again to try the new patch. Nothing is changed. I think this is the only game out there that has the fully loaded Lancaster outrun a FW-19A8 at altitude. It's just silly.
My opinion is that the game is slightly biased and you'll see all this in tour of duty: You have the best version of Spitfire Mk5, P-51B for some strange reason got Malcolm Hood ( what % of 51B's had it?), energy bleed in turns feels fishy, those Hispano cannons.....
Oh well, I tried for the third time. I'll be out of here at the end of the month. I won't bother to come back.

if you are that interested in stats, look up JB73 from maybe a year ago, to longer and look at 190 d9 vs. any bomber.

it doesn't matter what plane you fly really, if you know how to attack bombers.

ask 999000 and tatertot, they know what i am talking about.

(IMO) of course. And as best i can tell from the way things have developed.
Here it is ghi. Plain and simple. The Plane Set in AH2 isn't being overhauled, added to, designed nor modified for MA use. The MA is just a place where you can fly them all, If you dare! rofl.
I believe the plane set is being developed for the up and coming (Some Day) TOD.
This is why HTC is being so purest about their decisions as to AC design, inclusion or exclusion and so forth. I flew both the G14 and the K4 and dont like either one for the reasons that have already been mentioned in this thread (K4s Tater Tosser) and the G14's stiff high speed performance Roll rate at 400 sucks). I will stick to the 190D9 and A5 for my German rush.

And Jaws those games you desctibe may be better at graphix but none of them allow you too play that many people in 1 arena,talkin to at least 20 of them them on the same channel.

Maybe you should spend the rest of your month in the CT,or check out the SEA events like the Weds. snapshot.Not everyone in this GAME agree's with everyone else but some of us do like to have fun still.

I wish that were true. I dont know how many times Iv hit allied planes in the wing just to see thier wingtip come off and see them fly away. Some with P38s and hiting them in the engine most the time it just takes out the oil.

190s are under modeled in AH and if you dont think so go read some of crumpps posts. He even posted a document showing 190 combat flaps deploy around 300mph but Iv yet to see that in AH, but who cares about 190s when you can fly all the best spits that were ever made.
