ww2online waiting for you all

[fscott]

I'm not into flying right now. Perhaps the flight sim part is arcadish.  But the ground war and including tank battles is what interests me.  The whole of it, and how everything works together is what is supposed to be "landmark". And from what I've read it is.

As a side note, I find it sad that many folks here are wishing or wanting the demise of ww2online?  I would think that all you WW2 buffs would be wanting it to the best game of all time. We don't get many WW2 sims or games around. This one is very ambitious, yet it is doing something no other game has ever done. Attempting to recreate and entire war all in realtime, online.

I know its hard to give up what your used too. And many of you really do wish the demise of WW2Online just so you don't have to learn something new. Change is good.

The FM in ww2online is better than in AH,is more realisc!
And you can feel the fly,not like in AH!
There is a big Groundwar...and you feel like to jump to 1940.
When you fly low level thats is,oh you donīt believe it...

Yes 40$ is an huge loss if the game sucks!!! I have never in my life bought an game that i did not like <G>

Djust give up AH one month and add 10 bucks and voila!

Or give up the smokes for one month or dont go to any movies for an month etc etc...

I really cant belive you guys who wishes WWIIOL to go down the drain. Sure it wont be everything they have promised but its sure is an WWII sim enthusiasts (spelling?) dream come true...

Dream or nightmare, we'll see Maniac.  I may pick the box up in a month or two, giving the preorder suckers some time to weed out the bugs for me.

I think it should read "If you like flying Aces High.  You're gonna be pissed."

Good!  

The place for the die-hard, furballing, pom-pom waving fiedur pylits is in tulips High  

And when the only 200 people left subscribing to Hi Tech's game have gotten everything but fiedurs nerfed to the point they are totally useless, HTC goes outta business for lack of customers.

Then they'll be back at Wartbyrds.  Still talking about how bad WWII Online sucks, and how it's 12,000 + subscribers are a buncha know-nothing dweebs.

No pom-poms here.  WWII Online may well suck.  If it does, no biggie.

I need to spend some time with Barbie and her Pet Adventures anyway.

Uh huh..I knew it. This has just become another mud slinging, "my sim is better than yours" fist fight. I personally could give a rat's bellybutton about which is better. I play a game I like. Even if WWIIOL is the best WWII sim out there, if I don't like it, I won't play it. Oh and Possi, you being the only one here who knows exactly what a WWII warbird's flight characteristics are, you must have flown all of them! You must have, because you seem to know everything there is to know about the FM. So do tell, oh great fighter ace of WWII, what makes the WWIIOL FM realistic?

We have testing Games with 4 Germanpilots from ww2 and i think there know whats going on!

[Maniac]

Possi, dont you see this is utterly the wrong way to 'promote' wwiiol.

Coming here saying AH is toejam wont do it...

Everyone will have the chance of trying it out soon enough, 2 weeks actually, no toejam this time  

Regards.

[Possi]

sorry i donīt say AH is toejam,no is a good Game,but it is not correct like the most player say.
I dont wont really promote wwiiol,but is a diffrent to AH.

[SeaWulfe]

4 WWII German pilots are playing WWIIOl huh?

What are there names and what squadrons did they fly for?
-SW

[Maniac]

Wulfe,

If they are flying WWIIOL now they probably are under an NDA. I guess the NDA includes that you cant tell anyone your in the beta   (or who else is in).

Dont take this too seriously AH guys, it will be here soon enough... And if it sucks well then theres atleast 2 good alternatives left...

[SeaWulfe]

I'm only interested in finding out how valid this guys comments are.

I read about this one particular guy who claimed to have been a WWII pilot for Germany that really wasn't. This was over 10 months ago, and this guy was quickly disputed.

We'll obviously find out in less than two weeks (June6th right?) how this will turn out.

I'm extremely skeptical, I've seen games get hyped up before (anyone remember SDOE?) and they turn out to be incomplete or unstable.

Words are just that until I can play it, and at 40$ with no offline mode I'm going to wait atleast 2 months to find out how good it can be.

 Sorry Degas. Wrong. Don't put words in my mouth.  Man for man, each person who is in closed beta said when they were extremely dissapointed in the flight-fight aspect. That if you look forward to being a grunt or ground vehicle participant you could be happy. And if their computer can handle it.

 My comments re:WW2O had nothing to do with AH, WB's FA or AW at all. They are soley and simply about how WW2O itself as told by those who've been there for some time. WW2O has so far fallen very, very short of what these people have imagined it would be. And they thought the same as so many of the gung-ho types who've been so vocal about hoping that WW2O will be the historical sim aka the online Holy Grail.

 However I'll add more of my own opinion and that is I think WW2O will be be the biggest frag/quake fest and constant furball fight ever seen online.  Why?

 $10/mo and all the generals are literally beating thier doors down. The constant barrage of  "WE MUST DEFEND..." or "BASE XXXX IS BEING ATTACKED> GET THERE!!!" and all the other " YADDY YADY CRAPPA BLAH BLAH BLAH" pseuod-strategy crap will be several hundreds of times worse in WW2O. What has been seen on the country channels in AW,WB or AW nothign in comparison. As the "stratego" people like yourself all plan ops for groups and squads, now you 'll be ignored by whole groups of people and entire squads.
 Nothing in comparison to being dissed by a few lone wolfs and small groups of people here.
 WW2O will be chock full of Generals thinking they know "the right way," they are sure that have what it takes to lead thier side to victory and they are all sure they know exactly where to attack or defend.

 I actually cracks me up a bit, And this is all pretty much obvious to anyone who'd been online for a few years

I'm starting to think that they canceled the open beta because of the bad publicity it would create. Better to sell a hundred of those $40 boxes than be left barehanded...

I was really enthusiastic about WW2Ol when I first heard of it. Then after all this hype and scum throwing I'm just waiting to see reviews of it first.

I don't buy a pig in a bag anymore.
