OK…who's left here that played the Beta?

Flossy,  I miss the old Krait's program for AW to change the environment.   Is Spiffy still with us?

He was as of a couple of weeks ago, still posting on Bigweek.

Good to see / hear from all of you who are not currently playing!

Biggles, dude, I too was thinking my first flight in the original Aces High Beta was back in September 1999, but recently noticed one of those little

Aces High "Did you know" hints / tips that pop up while the game loads what ever Arena you pick say: " Did you know that Aces High went live, October 1999 "

Was messing with my memory.... LOL

My maiden voyage that day, had hitech, pyro, NB, Lonz, nomde and a few others I can't remember clearly.... someone had already grabbed TC for their gameid in the beta, so I was TequilaC for all of the beta

When HTC went pay to play LIVE, I used DamnedTC until they flushed the stale accounts (where accounts were inactive) and was able to get my gameid TC .... I really just called HTC to get it, heh

Good to see names posting on the BBS that was here in the beginning, now you really need to login and check it out online

~§~ & cheers

Well, anyone who played AH that many years ago is entitled to a "senior moment", eh?  The only thing I AM sure about is it was day one of the open beta. I still miss some of the early maps, like the one that had a pizza and a beer sitting on top of a plateau...always got a chuckle flying that one.  BTW, back then I was "AlgyFT".

WOW...

Is BigWeek still up and running???  Did a lot of time in there back in the day.

Yup, although most of the posters have gravitated to a Facebook page.

Is it called 'BigWeek?'

[Mister Fork]

I'm wondering how many of us old-timers had different names?  I started off with Brandor on Beta-1, then to Vruth for a while, and finally...well... Fork.

I was always "Brooke" -- because of not knowing what a "handle" was back in 1988 when I tried out Air Warrior, I just picked my first name.

Holy Necro thread!

December of 2013 and it rises again!

I still remember I was pretty happy in the beta.think it was one of my 20 first lucky kill in a fu4c. citabria called me a dweeb and it took me 1 week to understand that it was not a salute :)hahahaha

Do I remember wrong that the aircraft handling was pretty difficult last 3 months before it went no beta ?
