I lasted two minuets.
« on: March 19, 2014, 04:38:29 PM »
I was watching YouTube, Aces High videos and a great big add under it with a little game to play was World of war planes,saying free d/l and such and such.
So never playing many other WWII combat sim's i thought I'll give it a try.
Man it was such a gamey game,took me 2 min to decide this was crappy crapity crap. Really makes me appreciate AH and its flight models.

Now why do i have to see a World of Warplanes add on YouTube when I'm watching AH stuff and NOT see an AH add?

You guys should see the DCS World commercials that are playing on the Military Channel, rip off copy of AH's old commercials, complete with the ending "Are you up to the challenge?".

But I see advertisements for that and War Blunder every time I open up a magazine like "Air Classic" or watch gun camera footage on Youtube, and my mind screams "WHY IS THERE NOT AN ACES HIGH ADVERTISEMENT HERE???"

Because I hate to say it, but most people will take War Blunder and it's easy to learn and master arcade style over Aces High.

I'm not sure this applies to people reading Air Classic or watching WWII gun camera footage. I think realism sells with people like them/me/us.

It's not all that simple.  ;)

Quite a number of players, even long time ones, went from AH to WT, for various reasons.

^ this, WT/WoWP isn't that bad, great graphics, FM's ok in full realism, but biggest thing for me is you don't have to deal with as many ack running, wirble camping, fly 4 sectors to keep from fighting you noobs (AKA 90% of the AH population). So that's at least one huge thing it has over AH.

No idea what SMH is...

But I think you may be projecting your own motivations onto others to some extend. Some of them are very active for a long time in WT now.

Different people do look for different things in games... and yes, AH IS a game too  ;)
