Best advice I got many years ago when I played Air warrior for the first time.

First...learn to fly without killing yourself.  Then worry about shooting someone else down.

ok Lemming, I did not address my reply to you, but since you want to quote me, please read below the thread you quoted of me and see where I apologize for coming off being rude and flustered, second take your own advice in calming down instead of coming on the boards flaming away about why you are unable to beat a P47N with your spit fire, in the amount of time you took to start this thread and reply to it, you could have spent less time reading up about both plane types and realize 1st hand yourself why you allowed your 6 to get waxed...........to add, a certian plane type can only do certian things, but only if the pilot pushing the plane can make it do them, hence quit complaining and start training....


and second of all yeah I've been a member since 2003 but that doesnt mean I've been playing all this time. I've only played a total of 3 months between then and now so I'm still a newbie to this game plus with the changes that have been made it makes it very difficult to keep up.

First I installed AH1, then later I found they made an upgrade to 2, then this.

everytime HTC comes out with a new patch, they include a readme file that explains every change that has taken place, and seeing how you are a member of this board, I find it very hard to believe that you have not kept up on the goings on about AH1 and now AH2 and all the changes, this doesn't wash, seems like another excuse....

I havent been keeping up with what's going on so get your facts straight before you start to typing with those chubby fingers of yours.
wow, you know me real well, I am not fat, I do not have chubby fingers, and I am no internet tough guy, I am as I have always been, here to help you, but why should I along with anyone else have to sit and listen to someone complain, when that someone thinks if he flys a magical spit he can defeat all...... seems instead of blasting away at this game, you should be learning it and keepng up or reading up on the changes.........but remember, I did not address you, I was talking to Kweassa, and a thread or so later I apologized for my quick rude response............ you are the one who started the thread, you then are the same lemming that quoted me then attacked me, and now you are still throwing up excuses why you got your but waxed by a suposedly inferior plane, being as you was in the uber dweebfire ride.......


BTW how do you nerds say it??? Pawned? or something like that?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



if anyone has been pawned it is you my dear Lemming, nuff said.........

but remember, even though you prob never will now, seeings how you prob got a mental picture of me being some rude arse person, just remember I am always willing to help anyone I can in any aspect of the game they may be finding difficulty to overcome, including you SkevJ/Revor or what ever name you might be using now......." Tequila Chaser

TC. Well said.
Revor it isn't enough you come here crying after giving what appears to be minimal effort, but then you choose to insult one of the more respected flyers/ posters in the community. This is a guy who gives an incredible amount of HIS time to this community for FREE. You have a lot of nerve pal.
Here's a little advice from an old Marine. "Suck it up! Shut up and Stay up!...or we don't need you around!"

Its a shame I have to go to an unoffical website that tells me how to fly. I'm not even having fun with this. I'm more frustrated then having fun. games like Tanarus, Cyberstrike, WoW, and most other online games have a thing called TUTORIAL. LEARN IT.

 And you all wonder why you have only 300 people in a arena on a busy night. Newbs like me are just bait to people in that arena who flys over 10 hours a day. I like the two week trial thing but I'm sorry because I'm not paying 15 bucks a month to get my bellybutton kicked and then you record to see what he does and that doesnt teach you anything either because the damn instruments doesnt function properly. This game had potential to be great and a successful heir to Air Warrior(At least they had a newbie arena) but instead you expect only WWII pilots to play this game.

Last time I check games had tutorials. Hell why this game cant have a tutorial? I shouldnt have to ask people all the time what's this? What's that? A guy told me it took him almost 6 months to finally figure what the hell is going on and how to capture things. Why dont you all put a tutorial at the beginning before you play the game about what purpose a Vehicle hangar does and what's the purpose of an Ammo field and etc. This is bad business guys bad business. In order for someone to love the product they have to know it first and it doesnt take an average joe two weeks to learn this game. AND HOW THE FUDGE I GET OUTTURNED BY A P47 IN A SPITFIRE??? TELL ME THAT???


Dude, I'll speak to u using examples.  I just got SW battlefront 2 yesterday, and havent tried online yet. Now, as u may know, theres really nothing needed to LEARN to be able to play, just stand around a CP to capture and kill kill kill.

Now, if I play that online, I WILL get pwned by almost everyone there that has played the game since it came out, even tho I knew all the mechanics. Why is that? Because they have more PRACTICE. Mechanics of the game are immaterial.

This goes for any game out there, like CS or Quake and I doubt u can deny that. A newb is exactly that. NEW. Everyone else is more experienced, so even tho the newb knows the mechanics, he still gets pwned.

Now, this is exactly the same in here. When I first logged on here, even tho I played some sims before, and had a friend who played this game b4 explain everything to me, do u think I wasn't getting shot down 90% of the time?

Now the reason most ppl get turned off from AH is because most ppl dont like sims - they would rather play fps or rts. It's harsh, but its true. If u teach a newb about all the mechanincs, they will still get shot down, and still get frustrated. It takes time to learn to how to fly and when to fly a certain way. Newbs don't know that and consequently get killed by ppl who do. If the newb likes to fly virtual planes, then he stays and learns, if not then he leaves. Nothing we can do about that because even tho lots of ppl are helpful around here, fact remains he might not enjoy flying, so why shud he pay $15 to do something he doesnt enjoy?

I think that if a mission editor could be made to run off line  with AI ac and "mission notes" which are clicked up or generated against way points or both..............

a very nice set of training manuals could be made and filed as missions so that players can choose the lesson they want....................
