It's not just the game but the interaction with other players that is worth the 15 bucks.  To me this game is more like going to a bar and have some beers and bs how the big one that got away.

btw if you want a discount then pay 6 months in advance.  you will save 15 bucks.

Not sure why you all are lashing out at the OP.  He simply stated some things he knows about other games and then posed the question "do you think HTC will drop the price?".  I for one would love if they dropped the price.  I do believe that ~$15/month is a fair price, but if I have to pay less for ANYTHING I am happy 99% of the time.



We see folks all the time that want things cheaper. Much of out industrial might has gone overseas for that very reason. Problem now is the fact that many folks can't afford cheaper either for they have no job.

$15 is nothing, and i'm making half as much as i did 10 years ago

Same here but I compensate for it by drinking twice as much.   :cheers:

I think HTC should raise the price to $20 a month just to prove how good AH is in comparison.   ;)

One thing to have an opposing idea its quite another to tell him "GO PLAY THOSE THEN!"  "IF YOU DONT WANT TO PAY IT DON't PLAY IT"

But I thought you would know that...

perhaps because the OP was only speculating on the market for subscription games as a whole and wondering whether AH might get a price reduction - he was not attacking HTC, or promoting other games.

the attitudes (and IQs) of many people on this forum really stink

although this was brilliant:

I too was in the alpha/beta for World of Warbirds/Warplanes  or whatever the eff they area calling it today.  I played for about 2 hours.  I then promptly decided they should have to pay ME 99 dollars per year to not have to think about how crappy it was.

they made ah $15 instead of $30 around 2004 right?

now adjusted for inflation how much less is $15 in 2004 compared to $15 today?

your paying the equivalent of $12.36 for AH in 2004 dollars acording to most inflation calculators available on the internet.

I too was chosen for the world of warplanes beta testing (I know I am special) and after 3 "battles" I deleted the game from my computer. Graphics were pretty cool but that was about it.
HTC wipes the floor with them. I'd gladly pay $30 a month for Aces High

$15 per month, that's 50 cents per day, really a bargain IMO.
