Make Aceshigh Great Again.  Can we get some new planes in the game please i dont care about all the little things its been way too long now working on them we need something to spice things up a bit here

we need some daily missions to complete in the main arena that pay out rewards like PERKS!

a new way to capture a field would be kinda cool

oh yeah we need some new planes and tanks in the game how cool would that be for EVERYONE!

I agree.  Eye candy be damned.  I just love to blow stuff and kill red guys.  New and interesting ways to do that are always nice and lots of red guys are needed for these types of activities.  Rant handed to next post...  :furious

An Italian fighter that carries bombs would be a good addition.  Only country in Aces High with :grin:out bombs...#sad  :grin:

Bring back Early War and Mid War arenas.
Be able to launch B-25s off the carriers.
Add gliders with troops to capture bases.

And the one thing that will make Aces High Great Again is for all players to vote me for the position of Supreme Military Intelligence Liaison Extraordinaire!!!!!!
You'll like the initials for that. :D

Agree with OP and the rest. This day in, day out Bish horde fest got old 5 years ago. That and the lack of anything new other than VR or GV DAR has driven away hundreds. Mr.Addink...please fix your game.

I'd like to see new additions to the game also.
One small thing I thought of recently was how about allowing the goon to transport small gv's, like maybe just a jeep.
If the VH was down, defenders could fly in minimal gv support, albeit at great risk.
This is at least historically accurate.
Towed artillery pieces would also be fun.
And I like Kuya's ideas about B-25's off of cv's and troop carrying gliders.  :aok

Collision model needs serious work.

Perhaps you don't understand it.  Don't collide and you take no damage.

As soon as the internet can move faster than the speed of light, there will be no lag and both planes seemingly in the exact space and time will collide.  Since there is lag, both planes are not always in the exact space and time, hence one collides and the other does not.

The alternatives are no collisions at all or dying from a collision when you didn't collide.



Regarding MAGA, we do need new planes.   The most recent new fighter was added in July 2013 and January 2014 for the newest bomber.

The sad part is we don't even have good eye candy. I was helping a fresh 2 weeker from Germany last week or the week before and his two complaints on his very first flight were, "The graphics are horrible" and "Where are all the enemies?" It didn't help that just as he was asking where the enemies where the war was won and he was booted off the server 4 minutes later probably wondering wtf just happened.

New planes are always fun, but do you think a new Italian or Japanese bomber or fighter would fundamentally change the marketability of the game at this point?

Oh I know entirely how this collision model works, and I totally understand what you are saying.

BUUTTT playing other flight sims regarding their collision modeling Aces High’s is extremely awkward, inconsistent, and most of the time extremely wrong.

Take a look at this. https://youtu.be/UOjVumXSXpE


Also the amount of times IVE been rammed by another plane (that I had no clue was even in the fight) and taken deadly damage while they just fly off damage free had to be well over 60 times in my time playing this game.

Because on their front end, they did not collide with you.  On your front end, it did appear the planes collided.  There is no other reasonable way to handle the discrepancy, is there? 

The fact you didn't see them coming isn't the fault of the algorithm.    That's the same as getting shot down by someone you didn't see coming.  War is Hell.

Are you saying you had collisions with planes that on your front end were clearly not close?  Since you said you didn't see them coming, I take it that is not the case.
