Influx of new players
« on: January 20, 2012, 10:19:34 AM »
With the release of the Red Tails movie, I expect a lot of new players over the next few months. Help them out when they have questions. It will only help the game that we all play.  :aok

Why won't my P51 do an instant reversal and fly backwards when I'm trying to shoot a TIE Fighter in the face like in the movie?!?!

It seemed like there was a bunch of fresh meat during the two weeks over the Christmas holidays.  I tried to help a couple out.  I got a lot of attitude and whining in return for my efforts.

The green newbies I have somewhat more patience for.  I help out the red newbies by letting them show off their mad skillz all the way down to their impact with the ground.

Lets hope so, I didn't see the same influx at Christmas time that I had in prior years.  Not as many two weekers stuck around after the trial period ended.  113th Lucky Strikes did manage to retain one new member out of it though so it wasn't all bad.  But I'm not seeing the same influx of new players as a few years ago.  I really enjoy this game, hope it survives.

The general experience for everyone is only as good as we all make it for each other and ourselves.  Trash talk on 200 is understood,  can get out of hand, but is easy to control, just detune it.  Idiots that respond to a question from a team mate or request for help from a noob with Alt + F4 are just juvenile and hurtful to the game experience.

With the economy the way it is and with so many options for online gaming if we want this game to be around to enjoy we as a community had better do our part to ensure it’s a fun, enjoyable place to be.  

None of us what to end up one day some  place in the future discussing the great air combat games of the past, Air Warrior, War Birds, Fighter Ace, Aces High?
