Damn near fell into tears, new player.
« on: January 12, 2025, 06:35:54 PM »
 I dunno, if it was someone kids flyin their account, or his account. Can't be but maybe 8-12 yrs old, going through all the motions like a pro. Flying B-17s, then B-29. Telling us every move to be informative.

It was so well done, precious and funny to me, damn near had me in hysterical tears. A natural.

lil guy made my day.

I made a post on reddit "Hoggit Fighter Wing" and asked why people dont play Aces High.

Got a few answers about old age game, a few about "didnt know that was still around!", as well as some saying they would check it out and one saying he would be back in a few days.

The nice thing is it was seen by over 7000 people in less than 24 hours.  :)

Interesting convo, on a cpl levels.

Subs seem to be an issue. Yet, I don't get it. Prolly never will. People blow more than that on nonsense every day. <shrug>.

I watched a old AH3 video today of some guy doin a "review" thing. Evidently was from WT, and quite evidently he had ZERO clue how to fly a plane. Musta been 5 attempts to take off, rolled over and crashed every time,... called the game a POS. There is a completely clueless mentality out there making judgement calls lol.  I should post the video, it's down right funny as sin and disturbing how people chose things. See that's why I stay in my own fence, stupid people make me crazy.

I think 3 of 5 times I read a post or chat someone "is saying is that still going?". Cpl on my vids. SMcGavin posted says he's coming back in a month.

Busting through the word cloud of other sims is kinda rough.

I see different new players every single night now.

We lost 40 regulars during that POS YKW era. THAT psses me off. It was in the design.

Edit: note: talking about 15$ and playiin multi games at the same time.This is what flips it backwards. Its not as much the 15 as it is affording multiple games...IMO

He'd say when he was taking off, bringing bombs, asking what kind of plane we need him to fly,..How many bombs to bring,.lol someone said 20 so he got a B-29...he'd just jump in something and fly away.  There's no learning curve. Quite the character.

And here above I have some 30 yr old who couldn't even take off making a review vid.

Having observed this "kid" several times and interacted with him I think this player is using a voice program myself.  This communities beloved  Akak use to use one when he would shade cheat just to mess with people back in his hay days. If you know you know :aok

There are real elements within this game that are sketchy af still going on to this day.  :x

I'm not buying this blessing post from Animl not buying it at all.

If anyone wants to pick my comment apart go ahead but your wasting your time.
