Lack of fights.
« on: December 20, 2013, 01:03:39 AM »
Sorry but the lack of "real fights" is really bothering me. I log on see two big dars, one green and one red only to get in a furball and get shot down. Then I'm welcomed to a "fh down" this annoys me more than anything in the entire game.

Why do people want to kill the fight?  Is that what this game is about? To fight to the death and re-up to seek revenge!?

This may help, this is from the official HighTech web site:

Aces High Help - Gameplay
_____________________________ ___________
Capturing territory through the use of air, land and sea power is the team objective in Aces High.   The arena terrain is divided into three countries (Bishop, Knight, and Rook), with each country starting with an equal number of fields, towns, cities, task groups, and a single headquarters for each country.  All countries have an equal amount of territory at the beginning of a war.

People shutting down an airfield or Vehicle Base / Port, are doing so to capture territory.  That is the official purpose of the game.

 Complain there is no fight but complain about getting shot down. I think if you have gotten shot down that means there was a fight, that you lost.

And when you poor misguided horders have run off the last few real pilots you can all pile on one side and take bases unopposed all day long, until the servers get shut down.  :)

no...the purpose of the Game is virtual combat....


web site first thing you read


Get started with the best COMBAT flight simulator
engage in land sea or air COMBAT
 "welcome to the best WW2 and WW1 Combat experience online"

Aces High takes the art and science of vintage WW1 and WW2 air COMBAT and sets it in a high intensity online multiplayer environment.  Hundreds of players simultaneously BATTLE it out against each other in massive aerial dogfights and bomber raids. "



not until the second paragraph halfway down the page does it mention the "war"

And as soon as a BATTLE starts, players will complain about it because a BATTLE is not a duel, and someone bombed the factories, the hangars or captured a base.
(I wonder why HTC made hangars destructible in the first place... must be a bug)

I usually play when there are only about 50 or fewer players in the arena. At that time fights are very small and rare. Many times I've logged out because there is literally no air to air action going on anywhere on the map. And it's not because of the terrain size. Most of the players online at that time are in GVs, guns, or delivering bombs, something about that time of day makes players really hate buildings.
