I keep seeing you reference to WWIIOl being the dream house, the holy grail, the bomb diggity...

I'll remind you, my idea of any of the above (but in this case I'll go with dream house) is that I wouldn't drop a f'in penny on a house made out of balsa wood with major parts of the framework missing, only 2 windows, no bathroom, and just a kitchen sink.

If you want to, fine... if others want to, fine. But the opinions expressed in this thread by anyone other than you and Fishu are warnings to other people.

If they still wanna go on and buy it, I don't care. They'll just be another sucka fish in the cess pool known as WWIIOl.

Yeah, and I hold an account here. I'm entitled to that. Why don't you go spew over on the boards for the game you hold an account for and leave us to our opinions?

You can't, why?, I dunno. Prolly cause you like duping people into buying crap.

AKSwulfe,

I haven't really said anything like "WWIIOL is great"

Only said I'm having more fun in WWIIOL instead of AH and correcting some BS arguments.

Like I said earlier, I've just talked of AH when the person himself in an argument has compared WWIIOL to AH or when the person has seemed like comparing it to AH or it's kind of sims.
Of course I could have used other simulation for example - like I have generalized, but for some aspect it's been easier to compare to AH, which I know the best and which people here knows the best.

BUT I have not said anything of AH in means of ranting - only talked about AH when I've attempted to prove that the person is having double stantards in his arguments between the two games.
Person might have seriously ranted about something in WWIIOL, while he talks high of AH, which might also have had the exact same issue as WWIIOL.
Thats where I've "refuted" with AH.

Sounds pretty fair, doesn't?

I Used to play AH alot in the past... why else do you think I would been registered in these forums since October 1999 and have nearly 3000 posts?

Warnings? Another backhand way of trying what someone said this thread wasn't. You want to discourgage ppl from trying it. You got called on it and we have a 300+ thread otw.

I posted the "holy grail"..is an online ww2 sim. Is ww2ol there yet? No, is it trying, yes. Is anyone else? No.
I really dont think I spew..havent called Dale any name at all

They'll just be another sucka fish in the cess pool known as WWIIOl

Here I thought you liked me. Being a sucka fish to you might well be something to be.

Fishu, as far as I can tell, you were the one who came in here comparing WW2Ol with AH. I have no desire to search this thread to find out who said what first. If you know who and where the first person who said, post here and I'll let it be.

Hardcase, yes warnings. Of course you like to say discourage, you know what the funny thing is tho? If we were discouraging people, we would of said, "This game sucks, no one should buy it!"

No one said no one should buy it, hence they are warnings and opinions of a game. Of course, you like to play twist the words, so in the end it doesn't matter how we phrase it... you'll always jump into one of these threads with your kneepads slobbing on CRS's knob.

As for this: " posted the "holy grail"..is an online ww2 sim. Is ww2ol there yet? No, is it trying, yes. Is anyone else? No."

Hmmm, interesting. I guess that when companies don't bite off more than they can chew, and instead work the opposite end of the spectrum... getting a stable game first, and building it up from there with each area (land, air, sea) being added when the other works well means that no one else is trying?

Indeed then, no one is trying to f*ck up as bad as CRS. Other companies are smarter (iEN, HTC) and are building up from an established working game. Eventually HTC will get there, and probably so will iEN.

CRS... they did it bellybutton backwards.. and what they have right now isn't an online war... it's an online cluster diddly.

Like said.. only to prove the double stantards.
I have no reason to rant about AH or compare it to prove something else than that.

Also, in these forums, I've only mentioned WWIIOL in the threads which are about WWIIOL.
Thats posting on the topic isn't it?

What does this thread really matter to you if you don't care about WWIIOL?
You come in here and tell us to fediddle off, but you're the one who comes in the thread to post - obviously jumping in between, not bothering to read the thread to know whats actually going on and making your quick assumptions of that who are the bad guys.

HTC or iEN has no intentions to try simulate ground, sea and air units historically.
So they will never get "there".
They have totally different goals in what they try to simulate.
You would think WB would have already got there during all these years it's been around, if they would have wanted to

So you do admit that ww2ol is more complex than a simpler stable game. Probalby more complex than AH? I like complexity in my gameplay and I am willing to overlook bugs and continue to support it. You like simpler more stable games.

BTW..it has always been stable on my systems. I dont CTD.
Must be the sims fault huh?

come on! almost to 300!

Hardcase, enemy bias in the air. is it fixed?

AKSWulfe · « **Reply #279 on:** September 26, 2002, 02:16:02 PM »

Yeah, sure it is... but don't pull the smoke 'n mirrors... "What you see didn't actually happen..." or something along those lines.

It's always something like that.

Somethings broken.. "no it isn't"... "then why can't I do this"... "because you should't be able too!"

Meanwhile you SHOULD be able to, but the problem is the game won't let you or it's just broke.

Funny, but WWIIOl ain't all that complex....

Just because I play AH doesn't mean it's the only one I play.

I like games that work. Complexity is relative, especially if it's all f'ed up.

Bias? I'm not sure what you mean. Does one side have a distinct advantage over the other in the air? Probably will always be an imbalance. Allies are getting a strat bomber soon. No idea when to counteract the 111. I fly allied so, acutally that advantage is negatetd;)

Lots of things need fixing in the flight model. Ground modeling for one thing. Lots of things are still wrong, lots of things are right. Things improve with each patch.

AKSWulfe,

Games that work?
I don't have problems with reliability of WWIIOL

I don't either know any major bugs that would distract and CRS as anyone, will try to fix those bugs.

How much do you know of AH's history for example?
It hasn't either born as it is, neither any other game that I know.

Hardcase,

Pst.. it's 12,95
Now you'll get accused of false advertisement and that alone will generate 50 posts

AKSWulfe · « **Reply #284 on:** September 26, 2002, 02:29:58 PM »

It is all f'ed up, but you've already admitted to ignoring it's problems because of whatever reason (free account?)...

No matter what you tell me, you won't convince me that the keerappiest form of code to ever land on a hard drive representing an "online war" is worth any money.
