I'd love to try ww2online.  I really would.

However I'm not going to pay to try a game which has had nothing but lukewarm reviews.

Wow.

They're getting the Spitfire Mk Vb, Hurricane Mk IIc and Bf109F-4.

Amazing.  I wonder when AH will get those aircraft?




(I wouldn't mind a D.520 in AH, but I think it is a reasonably low priority)

Prolly more than a fanboy. I flew with Hatch and Mo as trainers in warbirds for 4 years. Watched Killer et al take a leap of faith and started ww2ol. Been a beta tester since the first release in June 2000. It really is getting better all the time..last review I saw that had any validity was a UK publication and they gave it a 70%. PC Games, I think. That was 4 updates ago and no one has done one with the new graphic and sounds, attrition etc. Everything is attritable now. You can always d/l the full install and try it offline. I hope they will have another freebie time to come in and check out this last update.


Karnack..is that tongue in cheek?..The War Set is moving toward 1941. WB and AH have a larger base of ac,  but in time, who knows.

A reasonably inoffensive post that might be of interest to WW2 gamers and ACM enthusiasts.

Just a pair of unobtrusive links without much hype.

Heck, he never even mentioned "blade element theory".

No need to kick him around.

I wish WW2OL success. I wish anyone working on WW2 air combat games success. I just don't think thery're there yet.

Still, they like what I like. The more flavors I have from which to choose, the better.

WW2OL must really suck bad if they gotta send their little squeakes to other game sites and try and beg players to come try it.

Thanks for the warning Hardcase, I will avoid it like the toejamty plague it must be.

Exactly how many players play WW2ol at any one time.  It's been kinda hard to tell since they removed the counter after it was discovered they were adding 1000 to it.....

First I wasnt sent, second I am not your or anyone's squeak. If that is the best post you can come up with, you must be about 15 and just discovering whacking off. My guess is that you have never played it and that you just want disperately to be in what you perceive to be the in crowd. Since you profess to avoid it, you probably won't be missed. Next time try some intellect behind your post, otherwise you are a waste of space.

BTW with Mac people coming in and ppl coming from wb and ah and some ppl coming back, it seems to be doing quite well, despite your wishful hope it fails.
