Where'd everyone go?

Join in at the scenarios, that is what I'm here for nowadays.

It's well orchestrated and give me the adrenaline rush I want.

The  my time in Melee arena is just for my social media fix, flying around in ENY 20+ planes.

[Meatwad]

Do we get more than 300 pilots online at any point? It's an arbitrary figure, plucked from memory.

I believe those days are gone

I wonder how many people would be playing if all the people who don't play because not enough people are playing were playing.

popeye, Stephen Hawking was working on that VERY PROBLEM when he recently passed away.

More, but probably still not enough for those that actually left for this very reason. After all, they went away after the numbers have dropped below a certail level

[Lazerr]

It nice outside.. the numbers take a dip every summer.  Fishing, traveling, home maintenance and projects, campfires, and scrubbing bugs off the front of my truck are a few things that keep me away.

Hopefully ill get a couple hours tonight or tomorrow.  I do still enjoy the game.

I often wonder. So many shoot themselves in the foot. LOL

Woodworking... Chainsawing logs to a foot long pieces, then chopping them with an axe and piling them up to 7 ft x 5 ft 4" towers (a concrete grid helps a lot there) in this early summer ~85 F heatwave has kept drawn my juices enough not to log in.

[Shuffler]

Getting ahead for winter. Yall must have short summers there.

Escargot

hmmm... snails

Weirdly, I just logged in to pony up a sub, and my trial period is still going, after ending yesterday.

Either that's a glitch or the Gods of Aces High want to convince me.

So, back into the Hurri II - almost worth the sub for the jet-black paint job!

[DmonSlyr]

I go away for 10 years and suddenly MA numbers are down to 2 figures?

Still weighing up whether to punt on a paid account, as my trial ran out today.

Convince me?

I think it was the current map. The BowlMA needs a lot of players for the map to be fun on all sides. Once the #s die off for the evening it greatly slows down the action on that map and people log off earlier. On good night's we get about 140 into the arena that is actually big fights. IMHO getting the maps just right will bring the #s back to 200. But I really think base resupply needs to be adjusted also.

Like a Friday night just before FSO when the numbers go way up and big warm up fights happen. People go wow how come we don't do this all the time?

[lunaticfringe]

I notice I am not the oldest person in the game, which is unusual. Maybe this game needs a younger new generation of recruits. Social media and AH3 film viewer/fraps is the answer perhap?

My boss is an ex-games journalist, likes IL2 and Warthunder. He'd never heard of Aces High. It just needs circulation to a new generation of players and numbers will fly back up. Content releases help, then you have something new to shout about.

My armchair amateur tuppence.

young people want free stuff-hench world of tanks-war thunder-world of ships etc. etc.

What are the numbers nowdays?
