After 2 hours in game I can say that this was an awful idea. Spent my first 20 mins trying to figure out what in the world was going on, got my controls set and was finally able to join a side after I figured out to double click on the side button. I have money from shooting planes but still can't buy planes in game so not sure if that's me or the game.
You put A6Ms against the P40s at 10K with random AI that spawn behind you that fight against all players regardless of sides and expect new players to learn the game, fight AI and fight players that drop in and out without you being aware. I see a map on some of your screen shots but whatever setting I put I have no map nor have I seen an option for one. I flew the P40E for most of my time today and I had forgotten how much of a dog that poor plane is. I fought a decent pilot and lost all fights with him in a A6M2 I killed him twice as he was fighting AI and I had alt he shot me down the 3 other times we met and knew I was there. Expecting a brand new person to jump the learning gap learn the UI and then fight zeros with a P40 is just bad.
I see this drawing you guys away from AH which is not good, you should have worked on the F2P aspect for AH ditch your ENY system and make a scaled payment system based on planes
rough idea would be 5 bucks gets you 30ENY planes and above 10 bucks gets you 15ENY and above and 15bucks get all, continue with perk points but make all aircraft perked to anyone below the 15 bucks per month that way if you want to hop in a 51 but you pay 5 bucks you can still do that but if you lose the plane you lose the points like normal. and for free you get like 5 aircraft maybe 1 tank 3 fighters and 2 bombers. all your hanger queens maybe although this may be too rough.
Anyhow I think this was well over a year that places a whole new game that could have been a part of what we currently have except that y'all burned yourself's when we got AH greenlit and it wasn't really F2P.
But anyway enjoyed the time I had in this game from 2001 to today. Well in AH proper not WOP.
My well more than 2 cents.
