Probably i'm not the right person to say that but....
When i signed up i was an AW3 pilot in FR arena, AW3 was a very simple flight sim (dogfight are hard even in AW3 and SA is important like here in AH) 9.90$/month.
I signed up to AH cause the presence of italian AC (even if in the early stage of AH where completely bad modelled).
I was very reluctant to spend 30$/month but here i have found italian AC. I have bring here all my squad mates from AW3 and found new friends here.
I have spend 2 weeks before perform a decent take off and a successfull landing.
I have found a very poor # of AC and only 1 (2 after a short period) bombers and no ground attack planes, but i signed up cause i have see in this game a very big numbers of opportunity.
Now whe have a map editor for scenrios (very good), some more AC, no bombers, no ground attack planes and no scenarios AC.
Where HTC is heading??? dunno

Whe still dont have an almost complete AC types to perform a decent scenario, we have only late war AC.
If i am a new customer and i look to AH now i see only a late war dogfight game whit 90% of HO kills. (very boring IMO) 30$/months for only a limited # of AC.
I think people play at AW3, WB, FA cause these sims are more complete and whit a low price, not cause they are more simple to learn, u always need SA, u always need to know how others fighters perform, ecc...
When i was in AW3 i never think to join WB cause he was at least like AW3 in planeset but more expensive, never think about the complexity of the FM. In AW3 i have all the planes to perform ground attak, strategic bomber, fighters, like in WB but at a low price, and incredible scenarios.
Here in AH we have a very good FM (some things must be corrected IMO) that make AH an incredible game, but this incredible game is limited to 5-6 AC (F4UC, Fw190A5, Bf109G10, P-47, P-51, spit IX).
How to correct that MA obsession??? dunno, only players decide to bring a G10 instead of a G6 or G2 (last night i have meet a very good g6 pilots wow) only players decide to fly whit C hog instead of D hog, ecc...
Now i think HTC decided to indroduce early war planes, probably they will correct the MG capability and bring to a suffisent level only MG mounted AC.
Dunno if early war vs late war plane in the same arena is possible, that depends only to players.
I see people fly only C hog cause of the ultra power cannons, probably they can be very good D hog pilots but they prefer to HO whit the korea AC.
Probably these are the kind of people that love to fight C hog vs Bf109E, i really disagree whit them.
The point is:
- 30$/months mean: dedicated customers
- limited # of AC mean: no competition vs others sim
- Ez mode mean: dedicated players will leave
- good FM mean: dedicated customer and a more challenging game for new players
IMO i think we have to raise the level of the game giving more things to players, not giving at players a game like others whit less AC and 30$/month.
Sry i really hope u all start to learn italian ASAP, is very frustrating try to explain that in a foreing language
