Brooke:

The only special event I've participated in was something like Road or Battle for Berlin. It required flying 5 sectors to get to the area of most likely engagement. I'm willing to try again, but only if they aren't all like that. If they are, they require much time and patience than I have.

That's the thing -- some are like that (the scenarios Battle Over Germany and Der Grosse Schlag, for example, where it's high-altitude escorted, large bomber raids into the heart of Germany), but many are not (many scenarios are not like that, none of the "This Day in WWII" events are like that, probably no SEC or Snapshot events either, and probably rarely if ever are FSO's like that).  "This Day in WWII" is specifically designed for quick entry to action.  The fact that all of these special events have different characteristics that you haven't seen means there's a whole world of play out there that you haven't experienced yet.

Some folks complain about things seeming the same -- my point is that they are doing the same subset of things when the game has as a very rich variety of aspects that they could try out but haven't.

Murdr stopped playing because he's doing the rock star thing and has been touring the country the last few years with his band.

Back in 03 04ish when I first played this game, It was amazing. I couldnt wait to get home from work so I could hop on and hang out. It was an absolute blast. But as time went on, playing the same maps, Fighting the same people, it became very monotonous. It was more like going through the motions than anything else. Dont get me wrong, I applaud HTC for what they have done. Nowhere else can you call and have one of the staff talk you through your issue like they do (learned this very recently from another game I currently play).

Aces High never went boring to me, fighting the same people happens sometimes but thats ok and nice too. I was ever a knight but also meet some nice guys on the other side wile fighting  and its abselute cool if you fly behind an enemy and see his manovers and nows who that guy is. sure that happens not often but i like it, its a kind of this AH family.
i cant understand way somebody says the situations in MA are monotonous. Every situation is diverent in AH you never knew wich kind of enemy and aircraft will come infront of you, you never new his alt and speed and skill so every situation is diverent and that is what AH makes great.
If i get shoot down, i have done something wrong in the last minute bevor and thats means i need to get better in what ever i have done bevor.

No More octopus lake that's why
I think they should bring back a 15 player max free arena like in the old days  as it would give people that cant afford now something to do and keep the skills up and also bring in new people that once they try it they will buy it.

I've got an idea.  I want to play more AH, but I don't have as much time to do so.  How about some of you folks who are talking about playing less AH give some of your free time to me so that I can play more?  :aok
