FWIW true fly-by-wire systems don't artifically slow the whole time it takes for a flight surface to move but instead moderates the extremes so that a pilot doesn't over correct.

The artifically slow response is too unrealistic IMO.
Also these are prop driven, ultra small fighter aircraft.. pretty damned nimble and responsive.

WW2 planes didn't have fly-by-wire systems. They wanted fast rolls and fast responses. Even the 190 wasn't fast enough for the pilot not to follow.

Modern jets today can roll much much faster, thus fly-by-wire might be needed.

Sheesh.  Make up your mind.  You post over there that AH sucks and post here that WBs sucks.  You do realize a lot of people read both boards right?

When are people over there going to realize that WB is not Wild Bills priority?  Bingo is what makes them money, and it seems Bill is trying to get as many titles on the shelves for a quick sale as he can before anything is finished.  It seems WB has been shelved.  I just think it's funny how much people over there still have hope.  

Everyone who has come over here has said it's "like the good ol' days"

I also think a lot of people's complaints about AH over there, may have been caused by bad experiences during H2H.  H2H is basically set up as a trial deal, except the host can dicker with the settings as much as they like.  I would say that 80% of H2H rooms are ran by childish people, and I hope people aren't judging aces high by the crowd that hangs out there.  Lazer gunnery happens all the time in H2H, with planegunlethality settings set way high.

Loved WBs and flew it from beta, 5 years pent there. Then HT started AH. Still kept my WB account open because i was waiting to see WB3. Eye candy and no FM changes made me drop my account. IEN did what IEN wants, not what the people supporting the game wanted.

I musta ditched out about 250 to 300 a month for WBs till it went flat rate. And i had a damn good time. But for me WB3 sunk the product, now its just to late and doubtful i will ever go back.

Dog out........... WBs handle was  --wd--

IT IS..

I was scared to death that the passion I had for flight sims had died out.

I just wasn't having fun anymore.

Flight sims have been my passion since the Amiga days, and it just didn't do it for me anymore..

The passion didn't die out, the game did.

This game here IS "the old days" The fun, the sillyness, the laughs that WB was a loooooong time ago.

I can't tell you how great it was to break away and finally realize that IT WASN'T ME :D

it was the game :)

I still lay out 9.95 a month, no current game on the hard drive. I'm starting to wonder why.

I'm not going anywhere.

Why would I leave the "good old days"

It's fun :)

I left warbirds right after sept 11th when hotseat came out with his opinion that America brought that tragedy on itself.

 I told him what a squealing da I think he is and left the game.

I hate to see people lose jobs, but if someday warbirds ceases to exist, I look forward to seeing all the old vets here, if they can deal with the harsh learning curve.

WB3 is WarBirds III - newer version of another online flight sim. It clearly beats AH in every aspect - flight and damage models, gunnery, graphics, clouds, number of planes and skill of the players. Hotseat does truly great job making best online simulator.
