Well, it's been a little over a month since the con and the announcement that HTC was going to work on updates for the current game instead of working on CT.  I was kind of hoping for a monthly update at the beginning of December like the old days.   :cry

Maybe we're getting a big Christmas present instead.   :)
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

At the risk of sounding like a HTC suck-up, I think you are right.  I have a feeling that they are going to surprise us with a nice Christmas present.

There used to be monthly updates? That would be nice...
I thought we'd just get bigger updates following the same twice a year thing that we've been getting.

It always amazes me how people are "never happy". A month ?? thats barely time to get over the hang overs after the convention, jeeezzz. I'll bet you were one of those kids in the store always asking "can I have this?", "can you buy me one of these?" "Pleeeeeeeease ?"  :D

I too would love to see a few new toys in my Aces High stocking this year......

the site fixed on the F4u's, so a certain someone stops complaining  ;)

some kind of safety lock on the heavy buffs so they can't release their bombs in more than a 15 degree angle... to stop that complaining

more maps, including all of the old ones.... yes even the old pizza... to stop the "stale map" complaining

fighter town, and tank towns with uncapturable base that are NOT included in the base count to "win the war"... to stop that complaining

1 mile safety zone around spawns to stop the spawn camping and force real tank battles.... to stop that complaining

a real strat system to make it worth the hours to bomb out the factories for the buff guys....to stop that complaining

air spawns for fighters to stop the buffs taking advantage of the new strat system.... to head off that complaining

....ummm .... well.... I guess this isn't going any where. I guess we could settle for a couple new planes.... I hear that brewster would be the "cats meow"   :lol







Happy Holidays everyone !

I wouldn't count on anything new this month. Rumor has it that Hitech, Waffle and Superfly spend the day playing online Texas Holdem', Carrie's decorating the fake Christmas tree and Skuzzy's busy fielding Vista questions. Oh yeah, Pyro's Googling up new cocktail recipes for his annual Holiday Party   :rofl

Pretty much anything on this list would be great.
  With so many other legitimate and worth while requests on the table, I really don't care if there isn't a new plane till next year to be honest.

A strictly fighter only arena where equal type plane sets can fight against each other would be nice. Would be easy to change it daily or twice weekly to mix it up and get people stopping in to see what's new. 

F6 f4 ki nik G2 152 one day then p39 fm2 p47 mosquito 110 A8 G6 another and maybe even through in an all 262 day. Now that would be a fun arena to visit and learn different planes from. Early war could easily be replaced without much complaint at all.

Yeah, ain't that a shame.


All I want for my AH Christmas would be a zoom view that remembers. I forget to set it most times and it sure comes in handy when your looking for a base target or Cv hunting ..or those really long shots.

F10 doesn't save the zoom level, it saves the head position. I.E. only the changes made with the arrow keys and Page Up/Page Down.
