AH TOP GUN
« on: June 21, 2013, 08:47:05 PM »
For a lot of newbs we see , we all see one common thing. We can help with player retention alot if we would host a "top gun" every other week.   Instead of harassing trainers and taking another night from them, we would bring in the best fighter pilots from the squads,  this would also help with squad recruitment. It would  be a ;plus plus for everybody, and the newbs would not get discouraged.  :airplane: :airplane: <S>

Not to mention encouraging them to get a bbs account for questions.


Maybe make a thread just for noobs detailing which equipment would be reccomended, links to the help page, the plane info page and training page.

Upon reading said info, memorizing said info, I had a better grasp at AH, and the learning curve declined a bit.

I think the idea is more of a scheduled dog-fighting school for would-be hot-shots.  WWII style. :cool:

it would do a lot more good to get them to rtfm and watch some of the "beginner videos" (setting up views, acm, general game "how to") that have been posted by some of the knowlegeable and very helpful veterans. if there was a more extensive training schedule it would probably help to send new players straight to the training arena before they can do anything else.

If it were to be implented , it would be only for members 6 months or younger, with the target audience being free trial people , if people past 6 months wanted training,  we should organize a "red flag" night ,  in either the TA or a custom arena , but the idea is to make the fights better and  people wont get so frustrated  getting shot up
