Just one dog will cost you more than the sub just to feed for one month. Hopefully one doesn't get sick.
Yuppers, but dogs are real. No fiction to them. They get me outside, luv is unconditional! Might cost more, but the return on my dollar is priceless.
Aces High gave me hours of enjoyment. But it is stagnent. HiTech and team did a bang up job to say the least. Kept up with tech change, added more avenues to play the game.
However, it ultimately has not really changed in 20 years. The basic goals are still same. The end game is still same. The clientel has diminished to only those that appreciate ww2 aircraft basically. The game does not reflect the type of game environment that has grown in todays world. It is sequestered into a specific niche' and has stayed there. Recreating the ww2 aircraft battle experience only.
I built full scale flight gear, I built pc's, I figured out a lot about things to keep my interest. I got the occulus, yada yada. I tried to learn programming, skins, best use of pc hardware...
I once suggested a game play I would call Clan Air. The map would be about squadron battles. Capturing bases would get you new aircraft to fly, gv's to drive. It would give a squadron one home base. Squads against squads battling for better aircraft tech. Planting a squads flag on aquired bases, yada yada. But none were interested. perk points, yuck, and same old, same old were /are the only interest. It just got dull.
I salute High Tech and teams accomplishments. So far ahead of their time. But time marches on.... I'd still like to put a ww2 aircraft game together but it takes a team, I am but one and do have my limitations. What I have is imagination, imagination and a type of organizational ability thats rare, but alas........
Salute
