Play for Bishes: relaxed realism (numbers advantage)

The fee has actually halved to what it used to be. You may not get other games - not that I ever played any others at Gamestorm or EA - but what you do get is a much better game, and a better level of service from the small company completely dedicated to their game. Well worth it IMHO.

Did I say Yak9U? I meant the P-51B and the 109G6. I don't know what I was thinking. Someone must've spiked my water bottle at work!

I've never thought of it that way! You're absolutely correct!

dude, i am an ex air warrior guy. I hate to say this, but AH kicks the snot out of AW, and mind you I LIKED AW. My advice is to get a good joystick, fast pc, and fork over the 15 bucks! Best 15 bucks a month I spend (well, except for food, and the 15 dollar part of the thousands I spend to keep my wife happy). Jump in!.

50¢ a day is "ouch"?

Every month there are folks putting in more than 100 hours of stick time. Thats less than 7¢ an hour. Hell the electricity to run thier machines is costing them more than AH.

DVDA · « **Reply #22 on:** May 07, 2003, 01:13:21 PM »

But its a big difference $15 Dollars compared to AW3's 10 Dollars a month, at the end of the year thats $180 per year to AW's $120 per year.

And if you end up playing this game for 3 years then figures are more like this

AH= $540 (3 yrs)
AW=$360 (3 yrs)

but with AW you got about 30 other games.

It hurts to fork over that cash being just a college student but hehe i love flight sims and i was such a huge fan of Air Warrior so im going to do it anyway.....So ill see you all in the Skies Of Aces High.

Thanks for all your help guys.

Oh one more thing before i go, i was looking at screen shots of this game and i saw a picture of a plane burning falling out of the sky.

Do the planes really fall apart and hit the ground, or is it like in airwarrior where you just blow up into a million pieces in mid air?

Furious · « **Reply #25 on:** May 07, 2003, 04:47:17 PM »

If the pilot dies, the plane explodes. As long as the pilot is alive and hasn't bailed, the plane plummets.

DVDA · « **Reply #26 on:** May 07, 2003, 09:37:52 PM »

Thats cool and you can crash into another plane in mid air too right?

WldThing · « **Reply #27 on:** May 07, 2003, 09:43:45 PM »

If a plane is falling apart and you run into the debris you can die.

bockko · « **Reply #28 on:** May 07, 2003, 10:58:22 PM »

any live enemy plane, or debris, will cause a collision. friendlies do not cause collision, but shooting friendly planes causes the damage to your bullets to hit your own plane (a game play feature needed for I'm not all that sure, i think to keep players from fragging friendlies, or spies/traitors from killing guys).
