Poking a grizzly bear in the eye with a stick never goes well for the guy with the stick.  Just sayin'.

ack-ack

But it's immensly entertaining for those watching from a safe distance.

P.S. HTC I had a dream that I was riding that magnificent unicorn that Superfly posted (this one had wings tho) across an AH sector with a biblical mass of 110's and n1k's in tow, the most legendary of all great cartoon little-generals were in a phalanx behind me and then the masses behind them. I was leading them to the most dangerous of undefended bases. It was Tuesday and it WAS GLORIOUS. 

I interpret that to mean that u r going to send me that picture. Thanks in advance. Thanks.

Well, taters out it's horn would be preferable to some other options.

I figured taters out its horn would be more practical than say, an AR-234 style unicorn. Of course there would be no gunsite, you just have to align the spiral horn with the enemy plane.

And to be realistic about it, the unicorn would have to fly around about 250 mph or so. Not entirely sure about the top speed of a unicorn, since its been a long time since ive been high on acid and shrooms.

You cant forget the rainbow trail it poops out as it flies along either. Shouldnt be that hard to model, considering we already have smoke trails.

Oh I can't restrain from sticking my nose in here.

Let's look at the folks complaining about 4 new aircraft just because they aren't getting the ones they want...

I'd bet that the same people would be complaining about the artists replacing the old artwork with new.....since that wouldn't be getting them the planes they want.....

Now if some of the folks complaining about not getting the planes they want would pony (a veiled reference to Waffles new ride) up the cash for the development I'm sure the Dale could be convinced to put those planes on the front burner. BTW put lots of zeros on your checks, and on the dollars side.

The complainers talking about canceling their accounts have to realize that you started paying for this game when it had less features and aircraft in it. if it was worth the money then, why do you expect more now for the same monthly fee?

SB  :bolt:

P.S. I enjoy stirring the pot when I see quality of the discussion dropping to junior high levels.

Wow and to think I only wrote my first computer game in 1974. And have twice taken over the online flight sim market. But allas I have learned nothing in 20 years of creating flight sims and 15 creating and building online game business. Not that I do not make mistakes but your statements are some of the more condescending, clueless and insulting remarks I have seen in a while.  Tell you what go build a few companies then lets talk.

FWIW, Here's my opinion on how WWII aircraft should be added to AH in the near future:

1.
Ki-43
Pe-2FT
Yak-1b
LaGG-3
G4M2

2.
B6N
D4Y2
He-111
SM.79
Wellington B.Mk III

3.
C.200
Hawk75A
Beaufighter Mk.X
Il-4
Ki-21-IIa

4.
CR.42
I-153
Ju-188
Ki-44
Me 410

Again, just my opinion...but IMO after these it doesn't really matter what gets added. All the major holes that I can see are plugged.

Add to that list the G.50, Re. 2001/2002 and the Z.1007 and we have a deal!

Cool what game was it?
The first game I wrote was for DOS 5 and you commanded a 2d bird which you flew from a top view perspective. The goal was to 'drop presents' on people waling underneath the bird. This was done around 1992.
Yeah, that's right, you just got your rear handed to you by a fuggly puppet!

Ardy123:

You must understand this is long before dos and z80's and apples. Was on a teletype machine, to boot the computer you had to load what would now be called the bios by loading instructions with switches on the front. You saved your work on paper punch tape. The game was a simple guess the number game, you guessed and it told you hi or low. Next game that year was a navel battle game where, where 2 people did battle by aiming the guns at each others ship.
