slow down?
« on: November 14, 2007, 09:55:32 PM »
why is it that halo3 took 2 years to develope and has over 15 accesible vehicles, and this game with a lower resolution has been online for 10 years and has developed what ammounts to 3 vehicles a year?

is the staff smaller, or is the game less funded?

just as a question, what would it take per person to have 3 aircraft per year instead of 2?

and would 500$ get us closser to an a26 and a p39?

Stephen, Learn The planes we friggin have. Stop whining about you being able to fly anything in the current plane set. HTC is putting almost all there time and effort on CT at the moment, and many people can't wait until we get it. So learn what we have now, and don't make another thread of this, or i'm gonna lose it.

Hmmm, let's see Halo3 produced by a subsidiary of the largest software company in the world....Oh, and by the way the same company produced the platform that the game is played on.
...and a small shop with a couple of programers, and a couple of art designers, who by the way are also building a different version of their game to run on a miryid of hardware and operating systems.

Yep, apples to apples that one is.

Ok, 1 your out of your mind, or 2 your just a troll, for your sake I really hope it's 2.

HTC is a company of about 6 guys total, if that even, who like Murdr mentioned is right now in the middle of developing an entire new version of the game called Combat Tour.  Yeah this company is comparable to Microsoft. :rolleyes:

Couple points for Stephen.

#1, Learn to fly the ones we have.  

What is your AcesHigh InGame I.D.?  I am curious how "Well" you fly what you have been given.  (I never understood people posting w/o givin' the I.D. they fly under)

Didn't AH launch "officially" in 12/00?

We'll call it 7 yrs.

I count 88 planes and vehicles.

That would be over 12 a year on avg.

This past year we got what...  two spits, a sherman, and a b25?

That's 4 this year.

Stephen, can you get ANY facts straight?

Not exactly. We got "only" the Sherman Firefly and the B-25's.

The new Spits were introduced 2 years ago, along with the 109G-14.

Didn't they re-work the f4u models and the terrain as well?

Either way, here, i believe it's quality over quantity.

And as mentioned already, Combat Tour is the companies main focus right now and was stated in a post a while back.  I beleive they said once it's up and running, they would be able to dedicate there time to work on MA stuff.


For such a small staff i think that they're doing an outstanding job.
