What would you have to talk about here if us "4 or 5" outsiders didn't rain on your parade?

And this is what some of us see as a dog-in-the-manger sort of thing.  You suggest that only major changes will save the game, but that major changes will never happen.  So what's the point of your post?  Raining on the parade?

No sir, its just what i believe to be my realistic opinion and you are welcome to disagree. I would love to see AH3 thrive again and believe that it can. But do you believe the changes/Authority will be given that will allow it the possibility to do so? Or did this business stop devopment in it full right to do so? Enjoy the game while you can. If you like it the way it is so be it. But not everybody will agree...

I also believe that this game can thrive again with numbers, but when the only person in power doesnt care about doing anything to support the game other then leaving it on life support so he can still collect income, its never going to happen. He specifically said that changes will never happen. So if the owner doesnt care about promoting his own game,  why should anyone else care

He certainly never comes in here to say otherwise

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!

To be blunt the game could probably triple the active player base by just Turning ENY off and/or The side change lock off and drop the subscription fee to under 10 bucks with maybe some long term commitment subscriptions with discounts like $55/6 months and $100/1 year subscriptions.

The biggest reason I don't play AH3 anymore is I'm tired of getting locked out of the planes I want to fly when I'm playing with my squad-mates/friends and most of those squad-mates/Friends left (some even passed away),  at least I was lucky enough to NOT be in the game the same time Ole Jon Ray was.

I agree with you guys. I think some really simple changes would make a big difference. I think making some planes FTP and adding a basic membership with limited planes and tanks would make a big difference. (Like WWII online)

That's really simple stuff and wouldn't require much coding. Take whatever the current login is and modify it to change what planes/tanks are available based on the subscription and set up one with planes/available available for free. I would bet it's already coded into the game and all you would have to do is change the variables.

I think smaller maps and all the stuff with the ENY would be simple too. (Arena settings)

Smaller maps would be better as it would keep everyone close to the action.

Its more about getting rid of a couple of big ones. Would make a ton of difference.

I'm personally Hoping he reads these post, sees people (Not Animl-AW) honestly defending promoting or attempting to come up with ways to save the game and thinks maybe he can toss the community a bone by "Turning ENY off and/or The side change lock off and drop the subscription fee to just under 10 bucks with maybe some long term commitment subscriptions with discounts like $55/6 months and $100/1 year subscriptions."

I've already came to the realization that this place is for you and a couple other guys trying to creep under the skin of someone even more mental then yourselves.. not by much.

I can imagine nothing or minimal to talk about would be better than the small narrow stream of piss you guys manage to dribble on eachother daily.. 

But the context of this singular post says enough.  One wouldn't have to dig far to find evidence of you jabronis using this as your litter box.

You'd just berate each other more than you already do. Yes, you too. We're doing you a service. No thanks needed.

I love all flight sims and have played most of them, but this one is special. That's why I slapped the credit card down for 6 more months. It's a great game with great players. I've never cared or took the time to know people in other games. I've seen several old players returning this week, so maybe things are turning around? Be nice to one another. We're all the same.
I went to WW1 arena tonight with a dozen other players, all on same vox and we had a blast! That's what it's all about. Good times.
