Strategies and Tactics Weekly Thread?
« on: January 01, 2012, 01:43:14 PM »
Now I was curious if anybody had any ideas to make a weekly thread, on how to get better on Aceshigh. Eather it being through youtube or some play by play of a basic topic like fighters. For instance the writer might contact someone like Grizz and ask him to do the thread with a basic title like. Tips and Tricks 30mm aiming and usage tactics. Grizz for that tips and tricks thread would make one talking about its strong points and weak points and how to use it.

If you absolutely hate my ideas suggest your own, I just wanna see kinda of a tips and tricks series on how to make your game experience more trigger happy.

Anybody willing to run the series of the strategies and tactics?

The thing is I don't think just one person should run it because, I think everybody has their own specialties in the game on everything.

Possibly it would be in a basic and pro like training level.

I know there's already a training thing online, but sometimes maybe you can't get a question out or you don't get the big picture, and this would help with that. Plus the series would be weekly.

I did something along those lines when I was out of work. Go here, http://trainers.hitechcreations.com/ and scroll down to "Instructional Flash Tutorials ". They were time consuming to put together. Editing a YouTube film might be easier, but them again you'd need props and such to get most points across.... again time consuming.

In Air Warrior we had a "news letter" called "the Furball" put together once a month from a number of players. It had stories of things going on in the game, tips and tricks, and profiles of players. I always looked forward to my copy, but again, like putting out a magazine it was time consuming.

It's a great idea, but who has the time?

I remember "The Furball"  it was a nice addition of reading regarding AW....  what Stealth is requesting reminds me of the Air Warrior !inter 1995 Lecture series  and the Air Warrior Spring 2000 Lecture series...... although he is requesting or hoping for it to be on a weekly basis

back in Air Warrior, while it was at Gamestorm the Gamestorm website had a "built in"  Audiotorium/ online chat room  with a stage ( was called a sky box )  that we used to host the Spring 2000 lecture series.....

I wished Aces high had something like that...... it would be very useful for something like what is being requested.....  the skybox/stage gave the Lecturer the ability to post slides or pictures/diagrams while he/she was giving the Lecture to give the audience the ability to visualize what was being talked about

and Fugi...... I agree it does take a lot of work .... even if one is just typing up a medium sized article to post in a thread in the help & training forum..... and your work you did on the Flash Tutorials are very much appreciated, Sir ......    another that comes to mind is peabody/bbosen who has done some videos regarding  learning Aces High

All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC
