People who take this game seriously don't tend to stick around too long ... it eventually wears them down.
I was at Warbirds for 6+ years with a squad and other squads that made it fun, not always serious. Never got bored with the action in of itself until found other 'stuff' that AH provides. I don't always take it too serious and plan on being in AH for a long awhile until the 'same' thing comes along but more realistic eye candy and my machine. I have already more than the 2 years in AH, in fact I mix it up all the same as others. But being 'wwii' there is always an element of nostalgia, otherwise I and others wouldn't be here. WOuld be playing other mindless ground grunt capture the flag games if I like ground grunting (but dont). Flying WWII planes, participating in WWII scenarios, is as close at it will come to be than inventing a time machine back to the 1940's.
This isn't a real war, you got that right, but it still is a 'war', a 'combat (albiet a virtual one with limited brutality). This is true no matter how anyone slices it. People take from others, kill others, re up, spawn camp, and vulche to 'upset' other people, mess with their heads. Force them away. It's as close at it will come to being there for Aces High. Games were invented so that people can 'pretend' as silly as they want to.
So, applaud your online experience, but others can 'pretend' as much or as little as they want. Each getting what they want out of any game. Unless you play Mario Kart for no killing, you'll find a majority of games that are battle simulations, killing objectives, stealing objectives, objectives to win, just like chess. And..all 'games' advance to the next level or reset a map/arena, have an end point. Eventually move on to other games that have the same exact point in a different setting and perspective.
