fair enough flotsom,

TBH I can't comment on player numbers as I left nearly 4 years ago now,  Others have left since saying it has become worse. 

We used to have up to 200 people in classic and that was getting down to 60 odd in my time zone which was unacceptable to me.

Hopefully If they have an alumni weekend before christmas, like they usually do, I'll see whats changed for free (they wont get another dollar out of me).  I doubt that its any different though and most likely be very amused at how arcadey and easy it all is  :D.

edit:  they added the B29!!!  Nook!!!

I must say, with the exception of the explosion effects and water (which I'd assume HTC knows needs to be updated and I hope will be soon), Fighter Ace looks like crap in every aspect. The cockpits and plane graphic models are even worse than some of the original Aces High ones.

That's it. AH is now CONFIRMED better.



Also, I like X-Wing vs TIE Fighter. I have to remember to take a USB drive to my friend's house and get the torr-I MEAN, full game disc that I... err, bought there....

Sorry for the double post, but I DID notice a nice redeeming feature of FA:

The latest Spit model they have is the 14. I wonder what it must be like without spixteens...

Oh wow, they give the 262's R4M rockets!   :O
I've been asking for those HERE!

Back on the main topic at hand.
It would be nice to have the He-162 in game. Despite the fact that very few were made and arrived at the war Too late,
it is still considered a late war fighter and its fair game.

Well we could use more variety for the jets we fly.
Aside from the Gloster Meteor for an allied equivalent, the He-162 will make a more
agile alternative to the speeding brick that is the Me-262.

Well, the He-162 would have priority over the Meteor if you factor in one thing, It has confirmed kills against Allied planes.  Other than that, people will want the Meteor well before the Salamander simply because it's Allied.  I am not against the addition of the Meteor, and if anything, would like to see them come in a package deal. :D

Well, yes. That's true. Eventually, Skuzzy will run out of 'traditional' aircraft to model, and he will be forced to include those 'limited service' aircraft, like the He-162 and the Meteor.

But we all agree, the B-29 will NEVER be added. NO MATTER WHAT. ESPECIALLY NOT WITH A NUKE.


Unrelated: Just saw an ad for  'Fighter Ace' ( :huh ) on TV, looks a hell of alot like an AH clone. I'm gonna look at that stuff really fast.....

10- Do not punt topics. Punting would be making a non-substantive post for the express purpose of bring the thread to the top of the thread list

he technically isn't breaking the rule because he is continuing the topic instead of just saying BUMP.
