109s dont turn inside my Hurri, then again, I have flown all the flight sims out there and have aquired some skill at dogfighting. Good in AH, suck in ww2ol and it must be the flight model. LOL

You do realize that cannons on the engine grill will kill quick a few german armors. Little fire and the ammo cooks off. D520s are firing down on the top armor, doesnt seem out of the ordinary to me.

Continue alienating people hardcase. Nobody here could possibly have the vast flight sim experience that you have. Nah.. not even possible.

Whatever you say.. its gotta be right... right?

You may also want to note how many times you've made virtually the exact same post as above and also add that to the list.

Someone posts the FM is porked cause the can't out turn a 109 in a spit. When someone says its diddlyed, he'd better be a danm sight better at flying. I can out turn 109s in a hurri all day long. How does this involve an opinion?

"The flight model is, for lack of a better word, diddlyed. So diddlyed it's not even funny. I have had 109s turn inside my Hurricane I and Hawk 75 at 100 knots--try that in AH. E retention is ridiculous. Hurricanes, Hawks, and 110s are nothing but bait for the Spits, D.520s."

Alienating moose? I doubt moose has any intention of playing.

E retention is still an ongoing debate, it is being done in furballs at max rpm while the engine goes to overheating. Pilots in RL didnt do that for very long.

You guys have been taking free shots at ww2ol for a long time. I suspect long before I got here and were having a fine time patting yourselves on the back telling each other what a terrible experience you had and how the sim was just a total waste. Now, I post rebuttals and will continue to do so. Want to rag on ww2ol, have at it. You can rag on me all you want too. Problem is for the denizens of this forum, the free rags are history.

BTW, I think my post are civil. No name calling, no badmouthing other sims. I think you are worried about ww2ol. Survival is all that is necessary

Nobody has been taking "free shots" over at the ww2ol bbs hc.. that's the main difference.

And.. btw... it wasn't free for most of us. It cost me $40.

Me too. We dont post a whole lot about AH, even the many who have both accounts. Blame Blair and company for closing the forum.

dude.. what the hell is your malfunction?

Is it really everyone else that has issues with their hardware, because you don't see the problems... with the flight model, because you don't see the problems... with the customer support, because you don't see the problems... with the fact that the game is still very buggy, because you don't see the problems?

Dammit man... get a pair of glasses.

Its not anyone else's fault that the game sucked so bad at release that they actually had to lock everyone out of their bbs.

Weren't we discussing a "FM is diddlyed" opinion based on an inability to out turn a 109 in a hurri? Dude, that aint a FM problem, that is a pilot problem. Hardware, we have gotten ppl up and running with 98 98se ME 2k and xp. Community Forum is the tech support forum. Does CRS have full time dedicated tech support? No. Do they respond and read the Com Forum? Yes. Are they gonna respond personally to someone's..."I cant connect" when it is simply that bad Cine folder that Strat Firsty insisted on adding to the lastest CD? There are lots of bugs. Too buggy to play for you, don't play. I don't care if you do or not. I just like pointing out that some of these "informed" opinions are based on something other than the sims shortcomings. Bugs get fixed. I don't fix em.

Killing panzers form above, firing into the weakest point of armor, setting engines on fire,for one, doesnt seem too out of the ordinary. 110s 20mm kill the engines on Mattys in an instant. As for my flying skill, I earned it.

And you're still doing it hardcase. Give it up. You've more than worn out your welcome and you are doing nothing constructive on this BBS.

Arguing with everyone about WWIIOn-line suckiness does not encourage people to go play the game.

The reason the bbs was locked..was from the behavior of those who had quit. Can't post with civility? Why should we even bother worrying about those that cannot. Fact is, I think CRS waited too long to do it. I stil wonder why you guys dont post your pissing at strat first, they got most of your money. CRS makes its money from subscriptions. Bottom line, I know most of you guys will never play, you only want to discourage some who might. You just cant do that with impunity now.

AK..i don't need a welcome to post here. I dont need your approval to continue. Perhaps another tact is in order.

AKDejaVu · « **Reply #161 on:** January 12, 2003, 07:51:32 PM »

Mine? try anyone's.

So.. here you come again trying to prove just how wrong someone's post is because it must be the pilot, or it must be his setup, or it must be their own bad attitude.

Dude.. its not just one person you're arguing against. Its not just one person you are making yourself look like an bellybutton in front of.

Once again, because you seem to be incredibly obtuse...

YOU ARE DOING NO GOOD WITH THESE POSTS. NOTHING YOU HAVE WRITTEN IN THIS THREAD DOES ANYTHING TO PROMOTE WW2OL OR MAKE IT LOOK MORE APPEALING. A DISCUSSION AMONGST AH PLAYERS HERE MIGHT SOME DAY DO THAT, BUT YOUR PRESENCE IN THESE THREADS RUINS ANY CHANCE OF THAT.

No that is just another of your attempts at drawing attention away from the main issues that people have with the game.

I think the toejam sandwich story pretty much sums it up

hardcase · « **Reply #163 on:** January 12, 2003, 08:03:58 PM »

Shouting is a bad forum manner. You assume I am here recruiting. I merely point out such falacies such as...I cannot fly worth a toejam so it must be the FM. Then again, you are hoping for your assumption to be true,hoping to influence those who might be interested into not trying the sim. If no one who reads this forum ever cares to play the sim, that is not my concern, but, then again, there are ppl who have read these threads and tried it and stayed.

So, actually my post have done some good. I am not going to tell someone to play the sim. I am not going to post glowing reveiws.
