to the.....-I must survive players-
« on: June 11, 2014, 10:33:02 PM »
so you like playing Aces High and think of it as a simulator of WW2...

thats awesome but the major issue with that is you would NEVER see a 51 go against a 51...or spit vs spit...ECT ECT

the MA is a COMBAT sandbox to make what ever you want out of it.....but it is silly to think of it as a sim for WW2 due to the previous aspects of AH I mentioned....

so here is a Challenge for YOU

you like to survive....you want to "simulate" the war...

4 times a month when it is run......there is what is called "scenarios"

and THIS is where you can simulate WW2......

the Scenario running NOW is the Pacific War.....


lets see if you have what it takes....

walk ons are welcome....

so NO need to be in a squad...


if I can survive.....maybe you can. :uhoh

If that didn't end with you augering into a ship on purpose then you did not simulate the war  ;)

Pretty much sums up my opinion about the survivalists in the MA and then standing behind the "it happened in the war" defense. The MA doesn't even come remotely close to scenerios as far as realisitc combat. I play them like they are two completly different games. In the MA I have my little code I follow. In the scenerios and FSO, I will pull every dirty little trick in the book to survive and win.

to bad the I "fly to live" crowd doesn't get into Scenarios more....(although I am sure there are some already that do)

this is where those skills would shine....and actually be worth something.

Right you are.  FSO and scenarios are built for pragmatic flying... mainly because your team suffers a point loss and loses a plane if you die.
