Methinks there might be a method to this madness.....

My bets are on a 1.03 release either just prior too, or right after this weekend.

Think about it ! Think outside of the box (or should I say "This particular Box")

Seeing as how this is the last weekend in the month, that is a good guess. However, they could be cruel and release on Friday the 30th.

Nah Sniper, I was refering to something (an event) "outside" of AH, not to anything in particular here.

Just my opinon, and I may be off base, but its how I would do it.

Red Barron 3d held the MassiveMultiPlayer patch for a month until the weekend of WB Con 98 which happened to be the release party for and open public beta for DOA.

I hope they do release it with the CON

hehehe

(at the con)

IEN Rep - "And here you see what WB3 will have...."
Voice from across con room - "Hey guys! look what AH 1.03 HAS!!"

The ramifications are mindblowing!

I will be at the WB Con, and I hope I can play 1.03 there.

However I will be too busy having fun with the Yak, A-5, and Zeke to care about what any WBers think of it.

Sn1p3r · « **Reply #9 on:** June 19, 2000, 05:38:00 PM »

Aaahhh ..yes, the WB con..

I would release it today so that WB'rs have time to cancel flight and hotel reservations.

Udie, if you check out their info on the WB con, any promotion of the "other" sims will get you the boot. Sounds like sour grapes to me.

QUOTE from the WBS Con rules-

"1). Anyone can attend the Con, but if he/she is found demo-ing a competitor's product, or trying to expand their player base while on the hotel grounds they will be asked to leave. If they don't leave voluntarily, Sheraton security will escort them off the property and they will not be allowed to return to the hotel for the duration of the Con. No refund will be issued."

I sure hope HTC doesn't take this analer-than-thou attitude.

I'll be damned if I am going to go meet flightsim enthusiasts at a con and have to worry about anyone being anything but fun. Especially to have WWII veterans present, and these guys limiting what people can do and say. How ironic is that?

This guy also notes he doesn't want guys requiting "HIS" squad members.

There isn't like guys with uniforms at these things who have never even been in the military giving orders are there? God, I would just die laughing...

I can see them not wanting a Aces High or CFSII booth with bikini hags handing out free beer demoing products...(err, actually, no I can't!) But still, this is a pretty strange ground rules.

First of all some disclaimers:
I fly both - WB and AH.
I like them both.
I don't work or am in any way assiciated with either of the two companies making those peoducts.
I DO work on con commitie for WB Con 2000 and i feel that i need to comment on few things here.

Ground rules that iEN put down for the Con are very much rational. They are there because of what happend ( or what might have been precieved as such ) at COn 1999.
Reps from Playnet were present at both cons and were demoing they still budding product.

Now, for us fligth sim folks - that's nice and dandy. But, iEN put down some major cash to make this thing happend - and they felt that a competitor was stealing the show.

I was there, i can't really blame them.

It's like having a Coke drinkers convention and Pepsi sending its reps to steal the audience.

Point is, you are free to come to WB con and play AH. I'm planing on flying AH with my squadmate from 308- funkedup and htrk - who will be in attendance.

But if you show up in HTC T-shirt ( not sure if they have any

) and do nothing but push people to AH and tell them how much better it is then WB - then you might be asked to leave.

So, if you are a fligth sim enthusiast - just come. Nobody will bother you.
If you are there to start the revolution - stay home.

Later this year there is a AH con. How would you people feel if HTC would dish out cash for the hotel , speakers and all the other crap - just to have playnet or iEN waltz in and show off their product ?

I hope this explains some things.

Oh, before i forget.

Playnet did sponsor the 1999 con in PS.
I'm not sure what the deal was, whole thing was the total mess till the starting day. iEM was holding it's own con of sorts in DC, gryf organized the con in PS.
Playnet did fork some cash over, and as sich they felt that it was ok to demo...
But i don't think it was consulted with iEN...
yada yada yada... you get the picture.
Two groups of people who don't want to speak to each other... organizing things

Therefore, i'm not putting a blame on Playnet or its employes.
Whole thing was a misunderstanding - and iEN hopes to prevent that for this Con... i guess
