While getting used to the arena, I tried stalling the P-40.  It was very docile and wouldn’t really break into the stall.  Same with trying to coax it into a spin.  Has anyone else noticed this? Is the flight model accurate?

WOP Has 2 different flight models, 1 the same as AH and the 2nd an Easy mode. It can be set to user configurable, or host selected on a per batttle type bases.
Right now all battles are set to Easy mode only.

Also there are now drones in the WOP free for all battle. They are in there own country so they will attack anyone in the free for all area. The next front end release list them as drones in the battle selection. But the current FE can still be played.

There is also a dot command .shownpc 1 that has been in AH for a long time to list the AI in the roster.

Thanks HiTech!  I had deselected the stall option in settings and was surprised at the stall reaction.  Now it makes sense.

I thought it seemed like a reasonable compromise to help noobs get up to speed.  It is docile, but not stupidly dumbed down.  In fact, current AH players might not even notice if they are not in the habit of pushing it beyond the stall point.

Maybe the battles with full model will have higher cash awards thus creating an incentive to kick things up a notch.

Have you looked into getting the game listed on Steam's Early Access?

https://store.steampowered.com/search/?sort_by=Released_DESC&tags=599&genre=Early%20Access

I don't know what the process is.

There are several “arenas” right now to choose from.  So that is where you might find you phantom players.

HiTech posted regarding the drones, even posting the dot command to type/enter if you want to see them show in the roster

The "battle arenas" you have referred to, actually shows how many are playing on either side

Hope this helps

AI drones seem to still be able to maneuver and fight for about 10 to 15 seconds after the wings have come off the plane.

War Online: Pacific is now available for beta testing.

HiTech

I don't have "Steam" on my computers nor have I registered ever for an account/whatever like username to post on games there...

Is the above stand alone website, once it is completed going to be tied to the Steam version as far as the "WarOnline:Pacific" community goes?

For reasons like DutchVII posted above, that he noticed some things (might be possible bugs?) that he was going to follow up on later....

Or are we to continue to post anything/bugs/issues that we see or find, here to this thread?

War cash vs. price:
The ki43 is listed to a price of 100, which I have collected in war cash. Also, the text is changed to white instead of red indicating its unlocked (I figure).
However, when I try to buy it, the cost is fluctuating between way higher prices?

Is it a beta thing or is there some variable exchange rate between war cash and price?
