Are the changed mechanics a secret?
potentially as to not give a certain player too much credit for the way he/she plays perhaps?

What is clear is that changes have been made without informing the community.

Off topic... how about this for AH gossip. Other night I had a fight with a 190d9 who pilot name had zero stars next to it. I shot both wings off, the elevators, had it smoking and leaking. This player managed to fly away and come back 5 minutes later to kill a drone.... it's flight capabilities were as if the plane had no damage but it had no wings :( u ain't turning without wings. You can coast a long time in some planes I get that but this was ridiculous.

I'm not here to police this game. I'm not going out of my way when I'm paying $15 a sub in 2024 for a game this old and unsupervised.

after participating on this forum since 2011 and knowing exactly how this is going to go my answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT openly discussing this topic. It's never productive and only a matter of time before this thread becomes a dumpster fire <S> sry not sry

I've witnessed some similar phenomenon and other slightly weird things, but as the chorus is singing "there are no cheats in here", I haven't bothered myself to even mention them.

I do not film anything in AH. I did that in WB and became the most hated pilot at reds, as greens lost all their superpilots and remaining ones became normal mortals. Except one who is still using such a lag it's always tombola where to shoot.

So you won't say what any of these "secret" changes have been but you also don't want a reply from dale?

So what is the point of the thread? How can the community comment on something they don't know about

HUH??

I asked Dale directly in the OP you tard  :neener:

what im not going to do is debate with any of you about what was changed.

if he doesnt wish to respond thats ok. He hasnt said anything about it at all and yet changes have been made......

What am I not allowed to come on here and ask?

I bet some of you are just bursting at the seams to find out what it s and yet you wouldnt contribute a darn thing to the discussion other than an uninvested bias opinion based on your own experience n the game about a topic yall dont even participate in when playing. Like an electrician trying to talk with a carpenter about why a chimney was built wrong......

While I dont play hundreds of hours any more I do still play every Saturday night. I havent seem any "changes" in the game other than game play type of things. With your posts, with out mentioning any of these changes, all you are doing is stirring the pot with falsehoods.

Call HTC, PM Hitech, send him an email or just forget about it.

It depends on which one of him you’re asking at the time.
Back in 2022 after a loooooong break from 2010. Old name Ratpack, same for the BBS.

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!
