who have yo gotten hooked on ah2
« on: April 16, 2008, 09:59:44 PM »
This is a kinda funny story.I dont know dates or years but its a good read for a laugh.Few years back (i ll guess 2)BEARKATS,AKA HUSKY01.was staying the night at my house.He and my boy same age ,have played sports all threw school,and i ve coached him in most of those sports.Anyway he was over they were doing whatever hanging out i suppose,i decided i would hook up joystick headphones and fire up the game...I dont think it took 3 secs and bearkats is makeing all kinds of fun of me my headphones,joystick and whatever else.....Now im guessing the next baseball game we were playing im on the bench coaching well yelling at 17yr olds and hes asking whats this whats that how this who that....

To make a long story short,he goes from making complete fun of a old dude playing with a joystick to A AOM SQUAD MEMBER TO IN CHARGE OF FSO FOR THERE SQUAD TO GOD KNOWS WHAT ELSE.Plus i hear hes not to bad a stick either......


i joined and started playing because 4 guys from another gagrage in my company played in 2000,BTWim the only one left...

Found it by accident probably searching for pictures or something.

Thought it was the coolest thing I ever saw, although that was AW.

1.)  WWII aviation?
2.)  Fly around with other dudes?
3.)  Shoot at them?
4.)  They have a 109?
5.)  That I can fly?
6.)  And combine #2 and #3?

Where is my credit card?

I haven't gotten anyone hooked. I kinda keep it quiet that I'm an adult woman, married w/kids... and hooked on a computer game.  It's not as if I needed any help being the neighborhood nerd, anyhow. :D

I was one of he two week noobs who tried aces high after seeing a couple of commercials on the wings channel,( now the military channel), who stayed. Been playing about 6 or 7 years. Introduced Vilkas to the game about 2 years ago. He keeps telling me is is going to quit when his 6 month subscription runs out, but he always renews, lol.

I never was the type to play any online video game especially some cheesey RPG or some game useing flying turtles and rats or whatever else they can come up with. But years ago i seen a link on some website about AH so i took a look and thought to myself here somethin i can get into. No flying chickens (except rooks) and no casting spells and picking up magic pickles or other rediculous things like that. I WAS HOOKED after a few days.  :salute

Hotsauce!

He denies it though.   Says it's just "pixels on a computer screen!" 

Here's a typical dialog:

HomeBoy:  So, have you been flying Aces High lately?

Hotsauce:  Naw, I don't play that silly game.  It's just pixels on a computer screen.  I'm going to cancel my account!

Hotsauce:  Well, I was on last night and some dweeb in a Spit tried to get on my six and I blew his wing off in my 109K4.

HomeBoy:  Hotsauce, you are in such denial it's scary!

Hotsauce:  I could be doing important things with my life like introducing myself to my wife and children!  Man, those 30mm cannon on that K4 are awesome!

I've gotten my two sons hooked on AH2, but only let them play offline. As for myself, I was looking for a flight sim when I found AH1 by accident one day. After a week in the TA I got up the nerve to go into the main arena and finally figured out how to navigate around the map to find a fight, and overheard two German players talking to each other at a base I went to and was so excited that I could fight real Germans! :lol I've been hooked every since.So  :salute all the guys from far away lands. Listening to GHI,Lyric,Lynx,Lusche,WingZero and countless others have given me hours of enjoyment. :aok

Hooked? Who said I was hooked on anything?

Wife: Honey I need some help with a couple things.

SHawk:Hold on a sec, Lemme whack this Spit Dweeb.

Wife:What the hell is a spit dweeb?

SHawk:Nevermind, He's dead. Now what was it you wanted?

Wife:I needed some help outside before it gets dark.

SHawk:OK, can it wait till I land my Kills?

Wife:{sigh} Nevermind, I'll do it myself. {stomps outta room} :uhoh


I Blame all this on a friend of mine named JAMS from the old AW days. He got me started by telling me all these stories of flyin WWII airplanes and talking on Vox to peeps from all over the world. Played AW for about 3 years until EA killed it in Nov of 01. Started getting DT's after about 5 months and heard about AH from some AW buds and decided to give it a try. 6+ years later I'm still here. It's like crack. :D
