If ack is your major frustration with Aces High, you're well behind the curve.

Aces High lacks playability it takes to long to get to the good part and there are too many things that can and do go wrong while trying to get to the good part of the game, the longer you play the more irritating and predictable it becomes.

Its a stretch asking a gamer to fly 10-15 minutes to get to his action add in the quite common things that could ruin your day and its no surprise it gets old quick.

I had similiar incident happen to me as it did to Ruah. I was in a 152 chasing set of B17s roughly about 30K. I chased them down for about 6-8 sectors and I could tell they were heading to our HQ. I finally caught up with him and the puffy ack started popping all around us. Couple of guys in 163s showed up and I heard a ping, and heard of the friendlies say "You are on fire". I turned around and sure enough, I was trailing flames and pop, died. I was recording it and sure enough, one hit from "friendly" puff ack killed me. It is just one of those things that happens and leaves you  :headscratch: your head.

Tonight I was flying a spit over an airbase. I was about 7.5K above the ground and flew level over the town at about 410mph and one hit from the ack took a wing off. I can't remember the last time I flew near ack and didn't get a 1 ping death. Really puts a damper on the flight part of the game and is what keeps me in GV's. Anyone else experience this kind of crap with planes?

Happens...... happened in real life too. Law of averages. Doesn't take away from the game in any case. :)

Just think though..... if you were playing on xbox you could just hit the code for unkillable. :D

I had my son and his buddy (big xbox live fans) watching me play AH the other night for about half an hour. Then my kids buddy says, "wow, that looks like a hard game to play". I looked at him and grinned.....i was playing offline at the time.  :D

Funny I had one of my tenants watch me fly a little before an FSO (was in the training arena) and he was saying it looked to easy and not realistic to fly.

I gave him a spin in the TA and watched him crash over and over, needless to say I didn't have to say anything otherwise.

 When firing 5" on CV at enemy con in close proximity to friendly..or even when friendly was close to line of fire to enemy con further out..the proximity fuse on AA round set it off hitting or killing friendly. Now I only do that when Butcher is the friendly.. :)

If that's all it takes to become frustrated with the game, it's time to step away to some other hobby & give AH a break. (I should be back early next year. ;))

3 more times tonight... All three times at the egde of the ack hieght and all three 1 ping and I lose a whole wing. Idk how people fly through it all the time when I can't even come close to it. I want to fight someone not fly for 20 minutes to have some idiot automated gun shoot me dow with 1 shot everytime.
