I don't like  the cannons  on the F4U-1C, just to prove  how uber they are, if I can get a 5 to 1 K/D ratio in them, imagine what someone really good can do in it!

1)  I don't like Sprint

2)  I dont' like Digex

3)  I wish the owner of this mutt in my b17 cockpit would reclaim him......he smells.

4)  And where's the showers?  These paratroopers are really stinkin up my goon.

5)  I hate asparagus.

6)  The engines dont get hot enough to pop my popcorn.

7)  The engines do get hot enough to melt my cheese, but without fries, what's the point?

8)  I hate flying in a buff after JOC has been in it......his sheep leaves bad stuff in the cockpit,....er,...hmmm,..I hope it is his sheep.

9)  The cleaning crew needs to be fired. I expect my bombsite to be free of finger prints.

10)  The union contract with the flight crews needs to be redone.  I have not had any beer nuts in months and these hags are starting to look really sad!

11)   The paratrooper training is awful.  I had to leave the cockpit yesterday to boot one out, cause he was too busy trimming his finger nails! (Now ya know why troop drops don't always work,...the secret is out).

12)  And where's my 8-track?

LOL Hangtime!  But you know, I'll have to check that cd player in the c47.  It should be playing "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" and "Feeling Groovy."

Hmmm, I started thinking, I usually do have "Magic Carpet Ride" cranked up  when flying that goon N.O.E., it....just.....DOES something for me!

Speaking of the blackout/redout situation...

First a disclaimer:  I have no (zero) experience in aerobatic a/c.  I am not about to pretend that this experience is identical.  However,

I was at Magic Mountain this past weekend and while waiting in the 2 hour line for the new Goliath coaster I thought, this is set up just like a B&Z dogfight, slow climb to alt, dive down, hop back up, smooth turn to conserve e, back down the ramp, back up, then a tight spiral for the kill of the wounded nme.  That tight spiral was something else, my wife started to get tunnel vision from the G forces.  I found myself subconsciously grunting the blood back into my head.  Now, I have nothing to reference this against, but my guess would be it is @3-4gs?  

Now my real question... Would it be more realistic for the blackouts in the game to be a little smoother, i.e. color vision decreases first, so toward the edges things start to tun black & white and then fade to black while the center is still visible, then center fades to b/w and finally black over a period of a few seconds?

I'm not asking for planes and pilots that can take 9gs like an F16, but I believe that sustained gs have a more pronounced effect than instantaneous gs.

I love this game.

There is terribly little about AH that I dislike enough to mention with conviction.

As usual, lots of little things that I take note on from time to time but nothing really important.

I guess the acks and the F4U-1C are most likely to get a cussword but hey!   NBD

Yeager brings up a good point, just about everything little minor thing that each individual dislikes can be easily adjusted to.  Severity 1 bugs are squashed immediately by HTC.  Things  like ack, etc. help maintain gameplay from turning into a vulch fest (Ack lethality *has* been adjusted, not nearly as deadly, and field vulches are up some too, tit for tat)

One thing that amazes me, look at CK when it came out, then 6 months down the road.

Now look at AH when open beta was released, and look at it now.  I would say by 10 fold over the developement stage that CK (WB's) was in the same amount of time.  Granted, some of it is due to the nature of technology, but most, I believe, is the dedication of the staff itself.
