Actualy the Stuka and the Kate realy did nothing much for me as a CT staffer except of course add depth, but it actualy hurt playbalance issues we have had and will continue to have.

They are extreamly Beautifull howeaver, I spent quiet a lot of time flying them yesterday.

One thing we must remember is the the Kate and the Stuka being multy crew panes take more time for HTC to model than just a one seat fighter type, not to mention the hard loving that went into that Tiger, Whos Comand couple is still ;porked btw.

Brady - mate - I know you are spelling challenged, but I've driven tigers, looked all over them in the film and I still can't find this couple doing what couple's do. (You mentioned Porking?

)

Hang on a minute

You mean Cupola!!!

Holy crap I forgot about that post. man you guys need some serious help if you can remember a guys first post.

All I can say is I knew this would become a flame war strictly by saying what I felt amazing how that works. As for my views well they still stand I must say I like the Tiger, that is about all I got out of this update so far. For those that can type their incredible fantasy of support that is fine. Just posting what I felt.

I guess I should go on my lynching crusade of the Nay sayers? Not to found of it and it is rather boring. I guess I will be the one dimensional AHer that I am and stick to my dora only

It gives me great pleasure to have been in a game for so long to see it go in the opposite direction that it once was noted for. That was sarcasm for the impaired crowd here.

banana,

Why did the CMs want the Kate?

That still makes no sense to me. With the aircraft we have it is impossible to do an early war Pacific senario without giving the US a non-historical advantage. That is great if you want the Japanese to be a punching bag so that the USN fliers can live their "Turkey Shoot" fantasies, but its real bad if you actually want players to fly for the Japanese.

I don't blame Pyro for adding the B5N2, but I do blame the CMs for it.

The US has:

A better fighter: F4F-4 vs. A6M2
A better torpedo bomber: TBM-3 vs. B5N2
A better dive bomber: SBD-5 vs. D3A1
A better torpedo: USN, 1944 type vs. crappy German airial torp
More players: More players always fly for the US than for Japan.

The B6N2 would have been a vastly better foil for the TBM-3. I know that the B6N2 was not available in the early war, but neither was the TBM-3. Further, it is highly unlikely that another Japanese torpedo bomber will ever be added, so we will be stuck flying B5N2s in 1944 and 1945 setups simply because it has hinomarus on it.

For the B5N2 to be balanced we'd need the TBD Devastator. I have never seen a request for that aircraft. The CMs seem quite content to setup a situation that preordains who wins and loses.

I, for one, will push for the B5N2 to be subbed in for the TBD Devastator in early pacific setups.

As it stands now the B5N2 is useless in the MA, it is useless in the CT and it is useless in scenario events.

I GOT BIGTIME BEEF. I just downloaded the updated version of aces high yesterday, played it, and it was cool... But now I need a patch? Is it just me or is the patch the same size as the original update (14mb or whatever) I am sure the original download worked, because i get the new backround when i go to enter the game, but the problem is It says i have an out of date version and cant play online. I went to the downloads page about 3 minutes ago, is the version i am downloading now the patch that will let me play online, or is it the same update and i am doing it again for no reason??? Please let me know someone so i can once again rule the skies...

Today's patch is 800 kb, which is nowhere close to the 14+ meg patch for version 1.1 to 1.11 upgrade

Whatever Karnak. You make it sound like the CMs are the ones who make decisions as to which planes are gonna be modelled. HTC may ask for our input, but that doesnt mean that we make the decision on what gets put in the game. By the way, I believe everybody in the game had the opportunity to answer the same poll that we did in choosing the Kate and the SBD, if I recall correctly.

And for Wotan....I was just expressing my opinion of Sachs.....he is a moron. IMO of course.
