Flew WB for 4 years, switched to AH when it came out, never looked back.
Take the time to remap controls similar to WB. It will make the transition easier.
Your going to love the AH mapping interface once you get the hang of it.
Plan on spending some time in the Training arena once you get fired up.
Damage has been turned off in the TA, however you will hear the hits.
And cockpit, wings, etc will show bullet holes on most planes. Timing & FM changes are going to be the biggest adjustments. Lots of good sticks in there most evenings. And with luck you'll run into a trainer or 2. If you don't, just give
trainers@hitechcreations.com a shout.
Major differences, Customer Service, AH has the best, bar none, any online game ever. Big statement, but HT has made it true. Just email or call, and they'll help.
# of people online, 450 - 650 people online at once does change gameplay.
Tends to bring out the hordes. You'll see those numbers every night.
Daytimes tend to run 100 - 250 with early morning US being the lowest.
Mid afternoons being the highest.
Unlike WB there isn't much offline, so with the exception of bombing practise or shooting a drone or 2 its not a lot of help.
Come on in, the waters fine!
