Don't that look good?  :)

And the next discussion is:

What's the effective blast radius of a freshly rocketed choo choo?

Followed by:

What probability of damage would flying through the smokecloud/bits of train entail?


I can hardly wait  :)

Neat.  Looks nice, except what Fester noted.

Now, trains don't really mean a thing without some gameplay change attached to them.  So, what is the effect of trains on AH's gameplay going to be?

Aces High needs to be renamed "Planes, Trains & Automobiles"

Yeah, sure.

I had to laugh.

Obviously, HT hasn't loaded up X-Train and given it a fair evaluation.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

some of you people are amazing.


we get a glimpse of a new feature that neither competitor has, one which could add a little more historical realism to scenarios and regular MA play, and people just keep on bashing htc. If you don't like the additions, design and produce your own game with almost zero staff and from the ground up, but don't slam hitech for doing his job.

makes me wonder why the hell they don't join up with the whiners in the WWIIOL boards.

personally ht, i think that's a pretty damn good addon and can't wait to see it.

moose,

Well, you see, I pay $30.00 a month to play this game.  If something is added that is just graphics, then it doesn't really make the game better for me.  As it stands now, I have some serious issues with AH.  There are things that would make it more enjoyable for me and I will advocate those things.  I believe that HiTech and Pyro will make the best decisions they can for their business, but for my $30 I will give them my chunk of market reseach.

FWIW, I don't think the trains are just graphic, I think there will be a gameply feature associated with them, I am just curious what it is.

BTW, many things that HTC has given preview images of Fester, and other, have pointed out errors that HTC has fixed before releasing.  It is a form of quality control that HTC has never expressed a desire to be halted.

If I lay a 1K egg on the tracks ahead of the train, will it be derailed?

Btw HT, I think it looks just fine even if the wheels don't line up. I doubt it will even be noticable during a 350-400mph pass.  :D

I never reply to these things, but, I feel I must.

I have been considering canceling my account due to my lack of funds, but, seeing what HT has been doing has made me reconsider that decision.

I will be giving up my $1 a day habit at the petting zoo to continue flying.

Seriously, its not the 'train' that makes me stay. I feel that HTC is a rarity, it is a business that is constantly looking for ways to give its customers all that it possibly can.

In closing, PERK THE G'DAMNED NIKI OR UNPERK THE F-4UC.

Regards,
MrFly
