if the 35 people that were reading the boards/forum was playing the game instead, I bet the numbers would be better.....

God knows I wish I could physically get up if only for 30 minutes.....to fly a couple/few sorties....

Just putting it down how I view it......

All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC

Yeah, I wanna play too but my kids sometimes hijack all my game playing plans. Some want to play Rust. Sometimes we shoot hoops. Others we play BF-V.   :furious

And then my wife demands some of my quality time too.  :x

What’s left? Well, sleep. And the forums.  :D

Forum Worrior Online is the best game.
The arena is something to do so you can make a thread about it.

hehe, good point TC, but I rarely play even in the AvA these days, and I really miss Thursday Night Tank fights!
I keep my head down working on terrains while doing a driveby of the forums when my wrists give out, else I'm documenting how these things are done, or trying to figure out how to attract new players.

I'm about to launch a persistent, updated version of H2H on a custom terrain for new players. Wish me and HTC luck. I got tired of people who didn't bother to learn what HTC was doing to make subscribing easier and more appealing.
I've thought for a long time that the missing bit was the old H2H free arenas. I'm willing to build one and keep it running 24/7 for a couple of months to see if the old magic returns. I think my time is better spent in here then in the MA, sorry.

 :cheers:

Easy in-game again.

Cool. That sounds like fun!

I'd love to play again. There's some great people n the game, but the game has changed..and not for the better IMO.  :noid My computer wore out yrs ago and I sold all my stick and rudder stuff. Several of my AcesHigh war buddies are passed away. I probably miss Heeler the most. And sawing off spitfire wings with 8 .50 cals. :rock Maybe again one day, but right now I'm too busy and am hoping for some game changes too I guess.
