"All it will do is reduce the frustration levels for guys who are just starting out. "

That's my hope.

so they'll explode instead of spin

never thought spinning was a problem in AH. Can't recal seeing more than about half a dozen spin deaths from alts that should have been recovered from

I think deselys is right. what's gonna happen to these guys flying stall limiter when it's turned off? They're gonna think they can fly around like that all the time, and when it's off, they're going to be spinning out all over the place. I'm going to need some convincing on why this is a good thing for 30 days for new pilots. It's like playing baseball with major leaguers where they pitch about 50% speed and no breaking balls for 6 innings and then in the 7th, they bring in Randy Johnson throwing full speed and mixing in his slider and curve.

Might be good for marketing, but I lean toward realism in the flight modelling. Have to wait and see how it is implemented.

but what about that huge untapped market? yes i'm talking about people with mice, at home in the office...

you lure them in and get them with the RR flight model (stall limiter) then when their addicted and they have paid there sub, BAM! take away their training wheels.

hopefully by this time they will be addicted and you will see a stream of sunken eyed AH noobs standing outside every computer hardware store mumbling 'must get joystick, must get joystick'
at this point HTC will be responsible for the collapse of the US and world economy unless...

(little finger to lips) you pay one million dollars muhaa ha ha!
