Of course, there's no way that all this eye candy is slowing things down, right?

Wooty must like the Easy Mode of wwiionline, only thing i can think of. I fly very little there, mostly go as Inf or Tanks. He also seems to forget that there are a crapload of guys here that came from WBs and/or sustain accounts with both. I flew WBs for 5 years and AW-DOS for 5 years before that. Kept my WBs account till WBIII came out and then quikely dropped if after the 1st week of release. Thay added eye candy but didnt touch the FM.

Wooty shows he has spent little time in any sim but seems to be an expert in all, howed that happen? Im happy here and will stay here.

Dog out........

I dont know who this guy is and dont care but he has never fired a tracer bullet.  I have fired thousands and thousands (note thousands) and have yet to see any smoke being left from them, maybe I am just blind, yea, that is it, I am blind.

"Lol...narrows it down to about 90 people (the entire iEN subscription audience). "



I've seen, just browsing in the last 20 minutes or so, much more iEN bashing on this board than I've seen HTC bashing in the last couple of weeks on the Warbirds board. Dunno what that means, do you?

Personally, I'm not going to be nice to iEN just because I happen to fly their sim. If there's something I don't like I'll tell them. The only thing I've ever said about AH is that, when I did try it a few years ago, it sucked. That's all I've said because that's all I know. However, just so you know, I tried Warbirds around the same time and it wasn't any better (or worse, in my opinion).

I did download AH again a few months ago and, while I didn't spend much time flying it offline (maybe 10 minutes?), I did notice that gunnery seemed much easier, the tracers were extremely bright (as they are in WB, though a bit more so), and the flight model seems pretty decent. Whether the aircraft are accurately modeled is something I couldn't say, but the physics modeling itself seemed fairly solid. WWII Online though, in my opinion, has the best physics engine, they just don't have anything else at all going for them. Damage modeling is truly despicable, aircraft performance accuracy is totally out the window, and so many other things are wrong it's impossible to count them. Sad that such a promising project went straight to toejam.

IEN are stunninghunks, I left because they treat their customers like toejam.

HTC look after us.

HTC get my $$$$, and I guess thats what really counts :)

End of story.

HiTech .... prove of a strong community

Well guys. By reading all those comments, it shows that we're a pretty strong community and are defending our "pappy HiTech". The fun and the fact to stick together by flying is one of the mayour things we look in here. by all critics seen in this BBS lately, this is a very good behaviour we've shown.

cool
