Actually the La-7 usage has dropped significantly. It's usage (kills+deaths) is currently almost 30% lower than last year's average.

yes all the cool squeakers fly Nikis and Spit 8's these days and Ho everything in site. Since they updated the LA's it takes a little more skill to fly so most of the noobs stopped flying it. It's still a uber ride of course but not as "easy" as it used to be.

I took up an La5FN in the DA today- its still a heatseaking missile. I think the main decline is from when the instruments were messed up and nobody flew them.

I still read "they porked the LA's" occasionally. "They are much slower right now and don't accelerate that good any more!"  :rofl

Yeah for sure
Its like a day care now..HT has done a great  job as far as the updates but,
to many damn kids playing now. The level of game play has went to hell

Hear this a lot.

But it also occurs to me that those who have been playing a looong time are also a little more...ummm....not so much...umm...old? experienced? as they were "back in the day." Even young(er) pups like me, who've been playing for a few years, can get trapped in the nostalgia mindset where things were so much better back before (X).

Personally, I don't see a whole lot of difference between now and the last year of AH1, when I first joined.
Maturity is knowing that I've been an idiot in the past.
Wisdom is realizing I will be an idiot in the future.
Common sense is trying to not be an idiot right now

10 years ago, I would hear warbirds pilots wish for the old Confirmed Kill and say those were the days. :noid

So it'll be good to come back? I am a young kid to 15 years old, no mic though so won't hear my voice I lost it. I just gotta get the money order to HTC and I can play I only have an ATM card for my savings account. See you soon.
