What if 1 plane was free?

[Vraciu]

The OP's wish isn't likely to happen because like his other wishes, this one is also a bad idea for new players and the game over all.

I think it's a great idea and if it brings/keeps players in the game (which I believe it will) then all the better.

It's academic.  Hitech isn't going to change it.  Time to move on from this topic once and for all.

Understandable Vraciu...

I actually used to like being invited to the VF-17 Jolly Rogers squad practice, when they were setting up a custom arena each week....kinda wished I would have been able to join them and fly with them more back then when they invited me

It is what one makes of it... Back when Aces High went Live, and our squad members started showing up in bunches from Air Warrior and War Birds, we all agreed to set up h2h arenas and practiced learning the differences of AH from the other games were migrating from...in just 2 to 3 weeks we were ready to dive straight into the MA and CT....

Again, it is what one makes of it....

I hear ya.  The old 8-player arenas are what convinced me to pay for Aces High.  Good stuff.

I disagree. What one plane could provide just enough performance/utility/ease of handling to both be reasonably competitive (to hook a player) and bad enough to motivate them to buy a subscription to get all the planes?

Doesn't really matter since it will never happen any way.   That's pretty clear from Hitech's response.

Still a 109 or Spit would probably do it.

P51B...lack of guns alone will make anyone interested in the dogfight want the 6 guns but it is good enough to handle the MA fight to include bombs....the free tank would have to be the Panzer H.

Risky gamble....how many players who play now would be like F it I'm not paying $15 when I can play in here for free. -1

[nugetx]

There are exactly 40 players now, and this would be prime time for my time of playing..... not exactly encouraging.

Maybe not a plane. Something done by the computer today. Mannable troops. Queue up for the next troops transport, and patiently wait to be dropped. Might be interesting enough to stay, gives an opportunity to watch, and might motivate to sign up later?

Where exactly are you at in the world, if this is your "prime time for playing"?

It is roughly a 1/4 past midnight PDT right now at the time of your post and prime time for most is normally starting around 8 or 9:00pm for most where ever they may live... Alaska, Hawaiian, Japan, Guam, S. Korean, Asia, Australian, New Zealand etc... Players most always will experience low numbers when flying during their "prime time hours"

Try encouraging your friends and people you know that like gaming, to come join you

issent that about a full server in cliffs and war thunder?

You know that cliffs is one time fee and  war thunder is free  with grind to win or pay to win.


There needs something more to be done in regards to subscription to have also more players today.

I am just saying you won't experiencing more players in a server in those games at any time.

And yes more effort could be made. however steam is a great step forward already.

nugetx, how many of these different WWII Air Combat MMO games have you alpha and/or beta tested and actually spent 6 months + playing , to get your ability to compare any of them?

just curious, since you keep comparing AH to other games
