The HTC team is basically down to Hitech, Skuzzy & Waffle, and it's been like this for a long time now.

Well, long time is subjective...but does anyone know when Sudz left? Hmm...when was the last plane update which Superfly did? I must say that, if I had to choose, I particularly liked the models Superfly did for couple of reasons.

I hadn't caught any news that Superfly and Sudz had gone to other things. I remember when Natedog's departure to form his own business was announched.

Whenever Superfly left that means that the art department's production capacity is essentially halved...

I agree to a certain extant WMaker, but I do think that the current art person has done a fantastic job with planes, GVs and cockpit updates, they are the best part of the game in terms of visuals, by FAR.  Waffle filled large shoes, and did a great job, like I said, IMO the planes and cockpit art are really good, especially at 1440p with it all cranked.

Sudz last 'official' AH postings were in Dec 2012 and subsequently lost his Admin status.

Pyros last post was in Aug 2013. He retained his Admin position, but only logged in once in the past 2 years for a very short time. You may have noticed that Skuzzy seems to have taken over a lot of Pyro's former responsibilites, he's no longer 'just the tech support guy'

Superfly's last 'official' post was in April 2014, he ain't an Admin anymore either.


Unlike in former times, no official announcements were made about any of this.

Now that we are all on the same page to the weight of the burden Hitech is shouldering. Without saying a word, just manning up and doing his code thing to get his next work out the door for us to enjoy. That thar is one fine Hurri IIc cockpit on the front page. And the team in place supporting Hitech is doing one heck of a job.

This is very worrying if true.

I wonder if Grebbo is still doing the 2D texturing for the 3D models. That would make it three people attributing to adding content to the game. Still, a very small studio none the less.

With all the squeaking and complaining most of us love HTC and want the best for it. When the squeaking stops, then it's time to get worried...
