Can a plane land at a deacked enemy field field and rearm there?

Or you just doing your usual passive-aggressive slamming of this game?   Maybe you should go refuel some jets?

Simulation has always been limited by technology. The more closely a simulation becomes reality the less one is dependent on their imagination to bridge this gap. Also, when imagination is removed the gap between simulation and reality becomes more obvious. If everyone is feeling challenged then why all the whining and complaining?

A few years ago I booted an old game, Pitfall, on my Commodore 64 for my 11 year old grandson to play. He was a pro at shooters on the Playstation but struggled with Pitfall. One he realized it was all about timing he improved greatly. The best shooters today mimic reality in appearance but will pale in comparison to something like paintball which will itself pale in comparison to real bullets flying. I like games and sims but I don't delude myself that I'm some real world ace of renown because I've gotten good at a game. I think some here do.

Yeah.....it's not like shane would know anything about the game beyond the same stale mission profiles over and over.

This is NOT going to turn into a 128 page post about DCS many try and leave and can no longer support their expensive aircraft and has substandard game play. I guess if refueling a jet is the exciting part, that speaks for the rest of sim. There’s so little human to human playing they never develop skills to go up against a human. I’ll put an AH pilot up against the Pretty Manakin pilots any day. That sim has reached its peak a cpl yrs ago.  Then ED burned subcontracted developers of pay, who now refuse to fix any bugs in the AC they still sell knowing of existing bugs.

ED kinda like Musk, they take credit for the work of others who they then rip off.

That sim is no longer growing
Nick is in scam mode to save what he screwed up.

AH is a completed game with very low bug count. Doesn’t empty wallets. You’re flying within 10 secs, AI is not the main target because of poor game play.

AI is a bandaid for what the fail in providing, authentic MP MA. AI a substitute for genius. Pretty graphics with nowhere to go.

Pretty Planes wish they had our game play, why they hang here. Memories of true excitement.

Because playing a 25 year old computer game with drama queens is brave and bold?

Basing a game on a half dozen "drama Queens" on a message board, even a 25 year old one, is blindingly foolish.

Ask the hundreds of players who come back night after night looking for the trill of combat against real players for the challenge of coming out on top. Be it on the ground, in the air, or on the sea, Aces High has all the elements needed for a great game. While it hasnt been "upgraded" in some time other than maintenance stuff it still is a complete game that really isn't lacking for anything.....other than midair refueling.  :cool:

You know who turns any thread into a multi-page argument about DCS? You. Only you.

Snide comments you think are subtle. You are the only one who believes they are.

If there is anyone here more extreme in his political views, and there are plenty that are extreme, I am unaware.

Musk invented nothing, he invested and took credit for the inventions. He did not create Tesla. He dies the same as with firmer twitter, he just bought it. The man lives on luck.
