Interesting "what if" was raised in a Free Multiplayer thread.
(sorry for the hijack Pyro, why I moved it here)
Take 50 H2H pilots (the best they have) and fight them vs. 50 MA pilots (the best we have) in a huge furball.
What would the results be?
How many MA people ya' think would die before all the H2H people were shot down?
I personally think it would be a slaughter, as large furballs are common in the MA but basically unknown in H2H (limited to 8 people) Add to that the calibre of pilot is way, WAY higher in the MA vs. H2H.
Do ya's think the H2H pilots would stand a chance?
Would their lack of fighting more than 3-5 opponents at a time in H2H be as large a handicap as I personally think it would be?
hmmm....
-
Ha no way. All the H2H pilots would die in 3 min or less. The only ones that would live longer would either run away or climb to 20k. While the MA 50 best might loose a max of 3 pilots to hos and rams.
-
I'll take on 5 v 1. (Not saying much, but)
-
I'm trying to figure out who i'd want in the MA 50.
I get to 'bout 20 and run out of names.
(I need to dig up a few of those "who's the best threads")
-
O, o, pick me, pick me! :D

Hahah lute;)
funny stuff but dont discount them completly they have a few pilots with much skill, and most of these are now ma players after h2h shut down :)

:aok
can you name 5 that you would put up against BluKitty, KAPPA, FX1, Murdr and TC in a fight?
(edit: or 10 you would put up against BluKitty, KAPPA, FX1, Murdr and TC, AKDogg, me, WideWing, Platano, and Fester?)
-
Hmm,
well theres domin who could probably take two of that group at a time, bighorn, who i think is now on break and an ma subscriber, denholm, benny, roultox, and a few others who i have lost the name of but now i do see your point 50 v 50 theyd be wiped;)
Edit: some of the names you mentioned are not as good 1 on 1 as they are in ma :aok

The H2H players are too use to being able to see from outside their planes. Also, they're not use to having to save their ammo and making every shot count. I doubt they love AH so much they would spend time reading things by Robert L. Shaw or Johan Kylander. So do I really need to say who I think would win?

I know I'm leavin' out dozens of great fighters (not intentional)
Of course you'd get the nod Bear.
Heck, there's a bunch o' finns and euro types that I didn't evem think about.
Like I said, we'd have a hard time getting it down to just 50.
-
You can debate numbers and skill all you want.
In the end, only doing it will show how things can turn out.
If you do it multiple times, you will of course have diffrent outcomes aswell.
Could you imagine the lag and fps loss if 50vs50 planes went at eachother head on?"all in vis range"
The guns the polygons the smoke the wings riping off the... fire, the collisions..oh lordy lordy!
Hmm, why not just test 50 vs 50 in one of the other arenas, maby in the events server.
Heck throw in 50 more from another team.
HUZZAH! :aok
Question is, would it just be fighters? attackers or bombers?
:D
Would love to see 150+ people all in heavy bombers shooting it out.
Man, ahII could have so much FUNNER events.

Sorry Lute, but idea just doesn't stand with me. It's like US All Star Football Team vs Vatican's selection of their best.
On the other hand, if you limit teams to half a dozen or so, H2H might have a fighting chance. For everything else, their players base is just too small.

That would be a hoot to see. I will admit, im not that good of a pilot since I putter around in GV's, but I would enjoy being in the furball just for the FUN of it
-
The best of the H2H I've run into were always past subscribers who didn't play anymore for one reason or another (and I usually knew them once they mentioned their old ID). I know I had one host completely bewildered with repeated barrel roll defense in a tempest consistantly wacking his f4u4.
Id have to agree with you lute.

Since they are H2H they deserve a numbers advantage to balance out their suck. My idea put 50 H2H against the best pilot from each major MA squad (AK's, Muppets,LTARDS, 68's, (+), etc...). It would still be a slaughter but at least we can say we tried to let them win.
-
You know, if this was done right, I'd bet it'd be a boon to subscriptions. I'd imagine a bunch of H2H people would really see what they were missing, both in quality and quantity, and would want to sign up for the real show to have some fun, and maybe get a little revenge.
Buuuuuut..... Who am I kidding? This could never be done right ;)
-
As a former employee at a horse-track....
I'd handicap the race as:
A H2H'ers chance in that arena....
1-21
And that is a conservative handicapping.
I played H2H a lot....but they don't have a clue about a MA furball.

maybe MA pilots fly D3A and H@H pilots choose their rides to balance? or to make it really fair, MA pilots in C47's.
not that I would be interested in killing some H2Her's...but I am THE BEST the MA has.:D

I think that 10 main pilots could do the job..
What your about to view is a clinic i put on for some snot nose kids in H2H. They thought they were some bad sob's. No wounder they had security that day but they made one mistake and that was to let me air born with 3000 cannon rounds and unlimited gas. I couldn't help myself (:
http://www.mediafire.com/?8xhw9jobzdz
Their are some good sticks in H2H.. I enjoyed playing with some of the older players. Off the top of my head my short list of some of the good guys..
TA57 and his gang

Neutron
H2Her's

hahahah been there done that :D GJ Fx its always fun to stir thier pot eh?

Put me in that 50 on 50 and im definetly good for about 7 of them, and would probly live to tell about it;).
U put the top 50 fighters that are ranked that DONT POINT potato, that area actual tried and true fighter rankings. then my freind u have only one word to describe carnage that would happen to the H2H crowd
IN the FAMOUSE WORDS OF SKYROCK!!!!!
OWNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We could all killshoot 1 elevator and 1 ailoron off our planes befor the fight to maybe even the odds up a bit, we might lose a few brave souls then. but we would still whip the snot out of them
-
Oh and sorry AXER I GOT TO TELL EVERYONE!!!!!
I KILLED AXER IN HIS TEMPEST TODAY in a 1 on 2;) his poor friend upped twice to save him, and unfortunetly a tank and porked his life saving ack;) so there i was 1 on 2 at a enemy base, low and behold axer and and buddie goes down:)
The pride shot over me knowing that now Axer will have to fly that much harder to be the number 1 pilot this tour;)
AXER was a very fun and interesting fight my man. Unfortunetly i was like the tick that wouldnt let go. The little coursair that could triumphes;)
But I deserved that Kill after that long chase and killing your buddies trying to save u:) Truthfully that town ack was yur best freind, u should have stayed there;)
-
Now this I'd love to see........get Bruv and a few of "The Few" in the MA squad...(not me tho, I'm the suck at this)..........plus all the other great sticks in the MA, host it in whichever room gives us God Mode......and let the games begin.......lovely,
Wurzel

Bearkats, i am a h2her, and will fight for them and day:)

In spite of what was probably just a well-intentioned speculation, this thread devolved quickly into exactly what stinks in this game. Somebody's just got to thump chest like a frigging gorilla, point fingers at themselves or salve ego if they're not immediately in the 'kool killer krowd', and doing it all while belittling someone else who doesn't play the game the same way they do. So what? Who cares, Cosmic Clowns?
Yup, good fun, 'Community'.
-
It seems to me like a civil war. AH pilots vs H2H pilots. We all play the same game. What about the IL2 pilots? They say, at least in an informal way, sort of speak, that they own us all. So maybe we could try this. The best 10 of them in our game and vice versa. That could be a challenge.
Btw you forgot Greebo and VansCrew
-
Well, I've flown in both, and I hate to say it but you guys just ain't as great as you think you are. Or maybe the 50 best H2Hers aren't as bad as you think they are. The challenge was the 50 best against the 50 best. I'll agree that 50 average H2Hers would be slaughtered by 50 average MAers, but I would say it wouldn't be a slaughter best against best. The MAers would win though.
I used to host in H2H alot (most of my rooms had no external views and realistic ammo) and it was always fun to see some over-confident MAer whine when one of the freeloaders was stompin' him. LOL. It didn't happen often, but when it did it was priceless.
Having said all of that, if there was some way to determine the truly best players (which there isn't) I would most definetly say they would be from the MA crowd. The best of the best in the MA are truly outstanding players who have made ACM their hobby and passion. Those guys I salute.

No offense, but the guys who wrote much of what you've read to get better at this game aren't from the H2H... I think you have no idea what the best sticks in the MA can do..
Now I don't know about the "top 50," because, as Lute pointed out, there's an awful lot of MA guys who could fit into that category on their on days... But you take only the top 5-10 guys from the MA, and you're talking about players who are, well, nothing short of legendary. Many of the rest of the people on the MA list, first and foremost me, don't even come close to touching them.
The only way H2H could have anyone as good as them would be if all 5-10 of them regularly went into H2H arenas and offered battle. Simply because all 5-10 have certainly fought each other, hundreds if not thousands of times.
I wish something like this event would go down, if only because I think those of you H2H guys who are interested in a fight would have a great time. I'm assuming that the limited number of guys in your arenas has sparked your interest in actually sticking around for the fight. Well, in this case, you'd get one :aok

that sums up the MA to a T
vulch vulch vulch run home and land the kills now i am so awesome
cherry pick a furball, then vulch then run home to land the kills now i am so awesome and it makes me the best of the best
the MA used to b about getting together with some friends and havin a really good time.now its all about K/D ratio and a fake score that they think makes the difference

I used to host in H2H alot (most of my rooms had no external views and realistic ammo) and it was always fun to see some over-confident MAer whine when one of the freeloaders was stompin' him. LOL. It didn't happen often, but when it did it was priceless.
Having said all of that, if there was some way to determine the truly best players (which there isn't) I would most definetly say they would be from the MA crowd. The best of the best in the MA are truly outstanding players who have made ACM their hobby and passion. Those guys I salute.
Personally, I don't think a 50 on 50 could happen. I really don't think you will find 50 "good" H2H pilots and gather them all together.
20 on 20 or 10 on 10 might be the best we could do.
As far as talent, i've been in H2H (often incognito) and i've seen/fought the best the MA has to offer. There really isn't a comparison. There really are some "good" sticks in H2H, but i've witnessed utter brilliance by many MA pilots.
I will go so far as to say a couple of H2H pilots are worthy of makin' it on the MA top 50 list.
It really is a question of the talent pool. The MA people get thousands of people to fight and hone their skills against. Some of us who have been flying for years and years have faced tens of thousands of diff. opponents. The H2H people are quite limited in that respect. There are only so many people they can fight, and only so much they can learn.
Factor in the fact that most H2H pilots have never (or almost never) SEEN 100 planes in the air at one time, vs. that's not that uncommon in the MA, the MA people have the clear advantage.
I think it would be fun. But I also think it would be over very, very quickly.

I don't wanna dig up the thread, but this was done with WarBirds a few years back. They came here and fought, and vs. versa.
IIRC the AcesHigh people won, but it was a great battle.

I think some of the people playing are self absorbed aces, while others enjoy their time playing in a cartoon world.

Not saying that anyone in this thread falls into that category.... I would put my life savings on the best MAer against the best H2Her. Especially if the H2Her couldn't have his dweebo external views. LOL

I think that if we put up the top SCORED pilots in the MA against the best H2H pilots, it would be a slaughter, H2H would pwn them. Top SKILLED pilots, that's a different story altogether. score != skill.

LOL I never ment anything by what i said, just fun, but truthfully, yes the H2Hrs would get decimated, not beating my chest, but u got to understand those guts dont have the situational awarness that a pilot in the MA can have. I myself can keep track of 7-9 planes and where they are at, their altitude and E leval and any givin time, and my SA is not as good as alot of other pilots, but them MA boys might have to keep track of 4 maybe 5 at the most and they would be lost in a giant furball. I am just speaking truth not talking smack, I watched FX1 vidio on them, they have no ENY restriction or PERKED RIDES, they can take whatever they want, ALSO THAY CAN HAVE INFINIT GAS AND AMMO, can we say spray and pray??

lutey....that sounds like fun but....
one day i was bored with the MA's so i went into H2H..there were 7 guys in there messin around and i asked if i could join the fun....they said yes, so i up my tiff shortly realizing that i had UNLIMITED ammo and fuel...WOOOOT! is what i thought...so needless to say i stay'd back watching for lil bit just flyin around then they started to engage with me, so i then started fighting them...1 by 1 they died...1 by 1 they reupped ...rinse and repeat...did this for bout half hour..if i remember right i have 42 kills in my tiff and still lots of ammo, i bailed out my plane cuz i felt bad then as i was in the tower they all started talkin smack to me, callin me names and crap. after that i got over the thought that i was just bein a bully and started enjoyin the fact that they ALL just got OWNED by a girl. but i would luv to be apart of this lute. let me know when and where :)

I didn't notice BatfinkV on anyone's list and I know for a fact that he fits the furball bill to a tee.
Top 50 is hard to choose as the MA has so many players that can hold their own, but I agree with all of the names I saw on the lists as very worthy of being there.
H2H players would lose without a doubt, but there are some decent sticks in the rooms. Overall though the vast majority of those players are kids trying to get their rocks off.

I got many of my names from King of the Hill winners and Tourney O' Champions lists. The rest I got from the "who's the best in what planes" and you will see that many of my picks are really, REALLY good at a certain type of plane.
I would of course put batfink on the "list", as well as many others. Like I said, it would be TOUGH to pare it down to only 50. There is just so much talent in the MA.

BTW, it is not a fair fight. We have a pool of thousands to pick from. I agree with Bihorn Leghorn. May be a 5 on 5 would work. If you were to be leave what Maha says, he was a free loader for a while. I bet you he pwns everyone on the original list and the ones that fly in the crowd or above the fights and just pick and run would not have a prayer with him.

Take 50 H2H pilots (the best they have) and fight them vs. 50 MA pilots (the best we have) in a huge furball.
What would the results be?
How many MA people ya' think would die before all the H2H people were shot down?
I personally think it would be a slaughter, as large furballs are common in the MA but basically unknown in H2H (limited to 8 people) Add to that the calibre of pilot is way, WAY higher in the MA vs. H2H.
Do ya's think the H2H pilots would stand a chance?
Would their lack of fighting more than 3-5 opponents at a time in H2H be as large a handicap as I personally think it would be?
hmmm....
First of all: the MA pilots would win. No doubt can exist about this. And those who have flown in both know this very well.
In second place, many of you proposed various handicap to level the odds. There is only 1 thing to do, to make it so: fight a 4 vs 4 furball. For the best H2H stick, the only really big handicap is SA. Fly 4 vs 4 and you'll have a really interesting fight, and maybe, to some of you, surprising (even though, I repeat it, MA pilots would win).
As for the top MA pilots, I've seen some of you mentioned people who doesn't fly anymore (at least, as far as I know), so I'm very surprised that no one thought about some on the most dreadful and dangerous I've ever seen, like:
Leviathn
Nomak
Furball
Morpheus
Sniper68
or other nasty opponents like
Biggles
Schatzi
Raptor
AKRaven
and so on... even if the first 3 names on the list are the really big gap. ;)
Btw, in a 50 vs 50, I'd probably do like Croduh and join the ol' h2h crowd (even though, now, there is almost no one left of the ones I flew with).
EDIT: oh, I forgot. I'd really like to see this. Please, HTC, can you arrange it? :)

HTC pulled plug on H2H, therefore it won't happen. It's all hypothetical now.
Try top ranking guys vs furballers instead.
-
Yep, I know, but, if HTC wants, may give to the "chosen ones" from H2H access to arenas just for the event. ;)
Btw, what you are suggesting is just as intriguing as Lute's proposal... no, more, much more than that! :D
-

:aok You hit the nail on head sir:D

It's stupid to even consider it.
How would you get 50 H2H'ers to fight in a single arena? Not in a H2H room (even if H2H was open).
I doubt you could even get 5 of them in the MA, DA, or TA because "$15 a month is too much money".
And I would put Urchin in the top fifty. THE top fifty, not score potatos.

Great idea, Vudak! I have movies of Levi, Nomak, Wilbuz and some other to share.

This event can be done in the SEA. HTC just have to grant them access to that arena for this event. WMLute or myself could host it. Mainly WMlute since it was his idea.;) They don't need access to the other arenas. I actually surprised they don't have access to the SEA as its closed most of the time till a CM is there anyways.

Vudak,
I am not quite sure what you were trying to communicate, but if Killshooter is off then MA players could fire all of their rounds at each other without any ill effects. At least I am pretty sure that's how it would work. Also, what makes you think that they would shoot each other upon take off anyway. Are you that upset that the MA talent pool far exceeds that of the H2H flyers or are you just being an idiot for fun?

Actually, if killshooter is off, there will be ill effects for whoever gets shot by his own team mates.
I was making a joke that us MA types get so fed up with one another so frequently that any attempt to congregate us in the same area with killshooter off would probably result in us fighting each other.
So, no, I wasn't being an idiot just for fun, but you might want to brush up on your reading comprehension skills before tossing out that word :aok

I started with the usual 2 weeks free in MA, then did my time in H2H. After I felt I was doin real good, I got a subscription. I got my bellybutton handed to me in MA. After a few months of MA I had to return to H2H do to comp issues and reigned as king in almost every room. I learned alot in H2H but learned far more in MA. I have only met a few GOOD pilots in H2H, each has helped me hone my skills.
Back to the original statement, I honestly believe you could take the best H2H pilots ( findin 50 great H2H pilots would be tough) and put them against 50 of the worst MA pilots and then you would have a good fight! Cause even the worst MA pilots are used to huge furballs, and the best MA pilots have become the best in the most adverse conditions!! The best MA vs the best H2H would still be a mismatch.....the ones that say otherwise are obviously unaware how bad they suck!
-
I like the idea of the top score folks vs those that dont score. It would be interesting. Providing it didnt turn into a runfest.
-
haha what side would i play for. id give any 1 on any side a good fight!
i mean id own about 98% of the people in h2h so i guess i could fly in h2h to help them out.
im suprized im not on the list in the MA cause i havent lost a 1 on 1 in the MA in like 4 months. just wish i had time to get on the koths then i could own you all mmuueeehahahahaha
id say id own about 88% of the people who fly in the MA

This thread got me thinking Aces High needs some squadron type events.
I know many of the best sticks from FA and the only reason they still play that game is because of the squad events at the weekend.
A simple setup is needed, a set time at the weekend. Squads have to register an hour before the fight, have at least 6 players per side. The "fight" card is set once everyone is registered.
The map needs to have 2 airfields. A 20 minute time limit whatever team gets the most kills wins. Winner stays on. Until all squads have competed the winner of the last match up holds the room for the next week.
Some of the best fights iv'e had have been the merges of 8 vs 8 match ups.
Obviously this would need some hosts and a rough rulebook but the opportunity of having intense fights and banter are endless.

I have not played in a awhile
but I have played well over 2 years in the main
and then played some in the H2H
the H2H pilots as a hole are very unskilled
compared to the main
very little tactics
no idea of conserving ammo(because of the settings)
very little knowledge beyond turning and burning
its like high school football players going up against college players
its another level
don’t get me wrong however
the H2H has its aces
if you had the best of H2H vs the Best of Main
I would say the score would be somthing like
H2H 12 Main 50

Give me a Tony, and I guarantee I'm taking a MINIMUM of 6 with me. I suck, so imagine some of the other guys. Hell, we'd be killing each other to make up for the lack of Freeloaders.

i think this is starting to be a popularity contest now. i mean Dexter i respect him and all but he has beenb playin this game for what 6 months lol. there are so many good pilots out there that dont talk i think the reason why you said dextur was because he talks a lot of the game or i dont know but how you came up with his name is beyond me.

Dextur is good in a crowd. Alone, he will run away in his tempest or what ever is the fastest prop plane available in that arena.

I'll say it. Dextur skill level is 0. Hes a score potato that never comes out of the hoard. If you catch him 1 on 1 he will run every time cause he has no skill.

Glancing briefly, I saw Fester and wldthing, both who flew/fly 51's frequently. Skyrock was nice enough to mention me, I fly 51's. I'm sure there are others listed.
I love these threads because it brings up old names/friends I haven't thought of in a while. I flew w/ Urchin quite a bit, always enjoyed winging w/ him... good guy and great stick. Hadn't thought about him in a while. Morph too.
I may have missed it but i didn't see Nath mentioned. He was a good guy and good stick as well.

I love these threads because it brings up old names/friends I haven't thought of in a while. I flew w/ Urchin quite a bit, always enjoyed winging w/ him... good guy and great stick. Hadn't thought about him in a while. Morph too.
I may have missed it but i didn't see Nath mentioned. He was a good guy and good stick as well.
We missed a huge swath of P-47 drivers here - say a good bunch of the 56th and 38 drivers of the 475th. Hell if you've got those 2 you've got all the bases covered:
Ridiculous E fighters, Helicopters and more ammo then Peter North can supply.

That tells those of us who do know those guys how long you have actually been playing this game.
That half you haven't heard of is mostly the "old guard" that played this game back in the day when "rank" really meant squat.
Those were the top pilots back then, and you just knew they were ... no need to go to the score page to realize it.
Sadly ... most left right after the "Championship Shootout" cause IMHO, that when the "community" headed south, and they couldn't or didn't want to deal with the "race to rank".
The "race to rank" completely changed the dynamic of this game ... and not for the best IMHO.

I remember that, and remember thinking that it was a good thing that HTC was trying to add some challenges/competitions to the game. I also remember thinking that it would subvert some players into thinking that rank was somehow meaningful.

In the old days of Air Warrior, we had the Air Warrior ladder - it was run somewhat like boxing - you battled your way, 1vs1, in a best 2 out of 3 fight to the finish - if you beat the guy, you moved up the ladder, and at the top, there was The Champ.
I see a lot of good names being tossed around in this MAer vs H2H post, which quite frankly is moot since H2H is now gone.
So, my question is - would any of you guys be willing to put your money where your ego is, and have the cajones to all enter a big tournament to see who the best stick out there really is ? ....or, are we all just a bunch of brag-tards talkin' big 'cause we know a H2H vs MA event will never happen.

The guns the polygons the smoke the wings riping off the... fire, the collisions..oh lordy lordy!
Hmm, why not just test 50 vs 50 in one of the other arenas, maby in the events server.
Heck throw in 50 more from another team.
HUZZAH! :aok
Question is, would it just be fighters? attackers or bombers?

Would love to see 150+ people all in heavy bombers shooting it out.

There once was a duelling ladder and several tries to revive it, but to my knowledge they died from disinterest.
I might, however, direct your attention to King of the Hill (KotH) - http://ahevents.org/koth-related/king-of-the-hill.html
In my opinion, the best test of acm skill we currently have. Everybody ups the same plane, giant brawl, last standing, err flying, won the round. Win three rounds: King of the Hill.

....Or fear of putting it on the line...
A lot of people talk big about wanting fair fights (not you specifically Lusche), and they lament over HOing, cherry picking and running - but they still stay in the MA (where the latter is the norm) and you never see them in the DA (I respect everyone I've ever seen in the DA), where all you have is the fair 1 vs 1 fights they keep saying they wish everyone would give them.
I have a theory that a lot of people here like to talk big, but they hide behind the cloak of deniability that the MA gives them (you can always make some excuse why you got killed there because anything goes).
Everyone claims they want it, but many are actually scared crapless of fighting a fair fight against other SKILLED pilots NEAR their own level. In their own minds, they've built themselves up as superhuman, and they're terrified of getting beat in a fair fight - against a "name opponent" - because they'll lose face in the AH community.
The latter kills me - I mean, we're all just "voices in the machine" - it's like Homer wanting to catch General Sherman (the giant catfish), just to impress the local barflys. Of course a variation of this is score-whoring - I mean, think of all the TEDIOUS work it takes to build up a top score... Who the hell are you really impressing ? Know what I mean ?
I'm honestly surprised people wouldn't be ALL ABOUT the dueling ladder like some of us old timers were in Air Warrior - especially given all the tough talk on 200.

Skyrock your statements aimed at Sloehand are bullchit. you are being a banana, mate.
Sloehand is a very fine pilot in the game, he is a very kind person, he is polite, fun to fly with, and enjoyable to talk with.
now Skycrock and Masherbum go off and have your little laugh at 'i own you' comments and when youre done with that maybe you would find equal pleasure in standing on your head, peeing down you leg and playing with the steam...
and Mark, we are surely virtual friends.....but get this. you really are not that good. you are decent in a 1 on 1 duel, sometimes even excelent, but youre not as good as you think or as you convince those who you 'own' to belive you are. Its just boring now, sad and boring.
infact, most self-promoting 'aces' are not anywhere near as good as they like to think, hence the verbal displays to back up the average flying. And it works.......anyone who knows 'skyrock' is good knows it because you told them. congratulations on the social manipulation, youre just like creton wass, and you didnt like him for his act did you now?
if any of you self promoters would care to disagree with me lets go do it in the DA. just make sure you tell me if the fight is for fun or for 'who is best'. if for fun then you may even be allowed to win a couple. if it is for 'who is best' then you will see the error of you foolish ways.
when you start being rude and offensive to such a great person as Sloehand, you lose my respect completely.

I've shot you down in the MA skyrock, 1 on 1, and you're nothing compared to guys like kappa, akak, drex, levi, and a number of the 56th guys. Most of the current MA 'talent' is nothing special compared to those old farts.

Take 50 H2H pilots (the best they have) and fight them vs. 50 MA pilots (the best we have) in a huge furball.
What would the results be?
How many MA people ya' think would die before all the H2H people were shot down?
I personally think it would be a slaughter, as large furballs are common in the MA but basically unknown in H2H (limited to 8 people) Add to that the calibre of pilot is way, WAY higher in the MA vs. H2H.
Do ya's think the H2H pilots would stand a chance?
Would their lack of fighting more than 3-5 opponents at a time in H2H be as large a handicap as I personally think it would be?
hmmm....
i think it'd be a good fight
personally i was a proud H2H pilot and learned all i know there.
went into the MA's and first thing i find myself in...a huge furball (40-50 some enemy people) I'm flying my p38L lightning and on my first MA sortie in years, i RTB with 8 kills and 3 assists...i think it'd be a decent fight.

I never can understand why people say bad things about Creton. He's been my friend in this game for many years and I've always found him to be a gentleman and great sport.
I've dueled him probably more than I've dueled anyone else and we never get upset with how it goes. He's actually very sporting - he's willing to take his K4 against my -1 and try to beat me at my own game. All he has to do is climb and I'm toast, but he tries smacking me around in a full flap turnfight, and gets shot down a fair portion for his troubles.
I don't know. Maybe your experiences are different, but when people talk poorly of Creton I have to figure it's because of a bad night here or there that soured on ya. Give him a clean slate and he's just like you and me in the DA, Fink :aok

creton was what i considered a good virtual friend to me, we used to have great fun dueling. we had a disagreement that was partly my fault and partly his, we exchanged some PMs and the matter was dropped. after a month or so i figured i was stupid for making the original issue matter to me, and that i would prefer to have creton as a friend than an enemy. I sent him a message of appology for our argument, with no reply possibly due to his leaving the game, possibly that he didnt care to make up with me. either way i got no response. then months later he popped into a thread and i saw he was still online so i took the chance to publicly appologise again, but a second time he failed to notice or simply didnt read the thread again.
my comments here regard the fact that as creton became more and more adept at dueling i noticed a distinct attitude change and then on the creation of his own squad and huge leap from friendly and modest to somewhat offensive in his own self confidence. it stopped being about flying for fun and became all about winning, being the best. this reminds me of Skyrock, as a numbers dude (031598) he was so much fun to play with, a joy to fly with or against. then through developing a high level of game skill the change to skyrock was almost overnight. either way i dont mind how a person behaves, it is a freedom we all have for ourselves and i still have fun with skyrock. maybe a rise in self confidence has this result on anyone, certainly i myself am just as guilty of such behaviour at times. i have spoken with skyrock about creton and i definitely see many similarities between the pair of them, and myself, and many others.
bah...i type too much today i must go and do some thing outside soon. either way, i was and still am sorry that i fell out with creton, and habour no ill will at all. I do however remain steadfast on my opinions of his gaming attitude, perhaps you were a closer friend to him and he did not feel the need to show you this side of his character, he definitely showed it to me. if i saw him today i would gladly appologise for a third time and greatly rejoice if it were possible to gain his acceptance of my appology.
-
Wow slap that list brings back memories.:) Many of them still play? I should be getting back to AH this sunday or at the latest the thursday after. I came back after 2 years only to be off for another 6 weeks after a week of flying.:lol
Never had a problem with creton myself, think i went to the DA with him once or twice. It was uncommon for me to be in the DA, i much preferred the MA, i enjoy fighting in uneven matchups and the MAs unpredictability.

I've had my nights vs. him, Dedalos. There was once a time when we dueled every single night it seemed for several hours. It was probably the time I was the best I've ever been at this game - I certainly have never had more practice. There'd be nights where I'd win the vast majority. They just never happened twice in a row :D
Regardless of who won, there was never any animosity or such between us, or even a taste of ego.
This was right around when some players' issues with him started (I was in his squad, I'm aware of the drama), so I've always been wondering what the big deal was.
Maybe just personality clashes or something, I suppose. I just don't see him as a bad guy.

:lol No one is really a bad guy. I am sure he is fine with his family and friends and a functioning member of society in general. I know him for what, 4 years? I've seen every change. I did not say anything based on a 1 time encounter. Just don't trust him with anything you dont want the world to know and you will be fine, lol. I have to agree with Sky here.

Over the years that I've played this game, I've had the good fortune to fly against and with some classy people, who just happened to be outstanding virtual pilots. You'll find a few names in this group not seen in a while.
Westy
Fester
Ammo
Vermillion (Verm)
Eskimo
Coach
Ripsnort
Rude
hblair
Funked
Lephturn
Saintaw
Leftf00t
Karnak
Replicant
Leviathn
Drex
Lasz
Fariz
Apache
Daddog
Many of these guys have moved on to other hobbies, but all of them were fun to fly with and against... Ironically, while most could be found on 200 channel, the level of discourse was far more civil than today. Which is why I usually squelch 200 now.
It is amazing how much the player population has turned over in 5 or 6 years.

There is no H2H anymore, there are no freeloaders anymore, there is no place that such a battle could happen.

Theres still freeloader's, there just not freeloading off HTC at the moment. They migrated to Il-Poo.
Hehe IL-Poo, I crack myself up.

All too soon it happens, and too often. I always preferred quiet humility myself, at least when it came to discussing one's own abilities.
I continue to hold out hope that SR will realize that his self promotion and posturing is really not a boon to the community as a whole and that the whole persona thing is known for what it really is: an attempt to hide frustration and unhappiness over being shot down. Some few hold to the idea that it is a means to get people to fight. Sadly, they are misguided by their own good intentions.
I believe SR will mellow over time and then the community will get a chance to see that he's not a complete banana.... or maybe it will simply be that he will no longer be a complete banana. Regardless, of which it is, I like the guy. Being so flawed and imperfect myself, I find it easy to let the idiosyncrasies of others slide.

Maybe it's SkyRock trying to get your punk arse to fight me in a 1 vs 1 co-alt co-E same plane fight! Hell, it doesn't even have to be even, just go and fight. Very doubtful you'll step up to the plate though, I've sifted through hundreds of wimps like yourself over the years in this game. When I eventually did get them to go to the DA, it always ended up they couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag. :aok

You could charge rent for ankle time... maybe set up an appointment book so you didn't have to deal w/ more than two 'humpers at a time. For quick quick cleanup, have a trainer on hand for Saran Wrap ankle tapes.
For a little side cash, set up a waiting room with vending machines and a counter where you could buy "I humped Skyrock's ankle and all I got this stupid T-shirt" shirts. Just a thought.

Vulcan, u pick the plane, and fight me. I will meet you in the MA anywhere of your choosing. If it is a 1 vs 1, and anywhere near co-alt co-e, I will beat you everytime. I would be willing to bet on it!~ Forget all the talk, just me and you fighting!!!!!! I will definitely own you and then slap you the second time with your scalp from the first fight. The third fight I will slap you with two of your scalps! You keep humping my ankle, yet acting all high and mighty like some kind of Vet with a concience. If you were any kind of "Vet", you would put your words into action and pony up and shy away from the gangtard no fight smacktalk! Until you decide to let go of your, "80 yard run", kill you got on me in the MA in a spit on my 6, you will never have any respect from the real fighters in this game. If you want to come in here and continually talk big smack, then back it up, otherwise shut your scared lil piehole! okie dokie? :rofl
:aok
PS you are aware that the DA is a place set up for co-e co-alt fights. Not some scawy pwace where big bad SkyRock will pik on joo!!

But , probably when I get moved , or if we take the house off the marlet until spring....I'll set up my flying stuff and look ya up.

Bat, look at the thread, it is me who is trying to ge him to fight. I have no problem fighting him for this bet, but I doubt he would change his name after I maul him. Just like SkyR0ck, these ankle humpers usually aren't theat good 1 vs 1 co-E co-alt!:aok

So What was the outcome?? I haven't been on much at all lately and would laugh my arse of if I see:
SYSTEM: Isuck landed 7 victories in an F4U-1
If you guys haven't dueled yet Good luck to both. Anxiously waiting for results.

Obviously your posts is nothing but BS. If you actually had any truth in your post you'd not be so scared as to hide your ID.
While some may think rank is important..... most fly to have fun and compete. We all get a new plane and a new pilot if we are shot down. We don't all fly LAs, Spits and such. Fly what you want.... fly the way you want.. or drive :aok

My personal opinion is...
In a scenero of 50v50, H2H-only seasoned pilots vs. seasoned MA-only pilots, the MA pilots would win.
In my H2H team war arena, seasoned mature h2h pilots would dominate the MA-only pilots and win the war.
I have challenged FX1 and three other MA-only pilots of his choosing to such an h2h SmogTeamWar match-up in my arena if... HTC ever gets around to opening it as a subscriber venue. I think it would be a lot of fun.
There are very good h2h stiks who are unknown to all or most all of the MA-only pilots because they are not forum members and didn't fly in the MA. These people are not forum squeakers and most are over 40 and can kick serious butt in an h2h team war.
I have gained a serious amount of respect for MA pilots now that I am flying in the MA. dang, you guys are good.

For years I played both H2H and the MA. I've fought the best that both can offer. Hell, some of the best of H2H moved on and eventually became some of the best of the MA.
However, I can say with certainty that the best players I have fought came from the MA. I cannot think of one who was exclusive to H2H that I would rank among the best. That's not to say that there weren't good players in H2H, but the best? Nope, sorry.

I see your point. I didnt have any way of knowing if a shades or other pilots in h2h was also an MA pilot or not.
I am compelled to amend it to... Seasoned Mature H2H pilots instead of H2H only...
One of the very best pilots I encountered in h2h was Jetster and he, self-admittedly, had a ton of shades accounts for h2h... such as YeagerC.

I've fought jetster. We went about 50/50 in H2H. I can name 7 MAers off the top of my head who would kill me easily. Just to give you an idea.

That's is very interesting!
Although I am not talking about dueling, per se... I am meaning to convey one coordinated and cooperative team against the other team in a h2h War venue concluding in a war winning map reset.
I think it would be a lot of fun because of all the past boasting of players on both sides re: MA v H2H! I don't think it matters really who wins.
The exercising of winner's bragging rights on either side would be something to see! :rofl
I mean... just look at the number of posts made to this thread since it started on 09-05-2007!!! wooo HOOO

The majority of the H2H-only crowd has lost the majority of it's talent due to no active fighting. So therefore the MA would win big time even if they have less pilots than the H2H crowd.
Lots of people think I would be one of the better H2H pilots, yet I would have to disagree.
-
Here's my perspective...
I'm sure there are respectable H2H players out there. I've flown against a few. Good, but not impressive in the sense of what I know to be the best. I've fought the best.
I suspect that the problem may lie within the concept of a dwelling in a limited universe. You may have encountered the meanest fish in your particular pond, but there's an ocean out there you've not swam in before...

Hi Widewing!
My sincere respects and regards to you. I have every reason to believe what you've said and agree. I fly in the Big Sky Arenas and thus have an enormous level of respect... enormous.
I just think it would be a lot of fun... and who can resist rooting for the underdog? :rofl And, who could resist ribbing the best of the best of the best should they, at the end of the day... come to swim in the little pond and loose by a fluke of luck or a tactical oversight or lack of team cooperation or mistakes rooted in over-confidence?
It's not all about dueling. The cooperative work of a well practiced and interleaved team is a thing of beauty.
I have found the team competition in the Little Sky Arena to be extremely enjoyable and fun. I have learned that the best stiks in H2H are MA pilots who enjoy it, and for just cause. I really can't explain it to someone who has not indulged in it. Were it not so enjoyable I would have branched out long before I did to fly in the mega-arenas.
I should have done it long ago. The first time I saw a flight of 30+ B-17s at high altitude below me on their way to distroy a target literally gave me chills and the thoughts of attacking it made me realize what must have gone through the minds of the Bf109 pilots who flew against them. OMG!!!!!!!!!
I am in the MA to stay. But my enjoyment of the experiences flying with and against pilots I came to know and respect and enjoy in the Little Sky Arena will linger forever. I mean that with my whole heart... I have cried over the loss of them. I dispise the b**tards that ruined it.
I have always believed one can only become as good as their best competition; one can only get better by flying against and with the best of the best of the best.
To the Aces of the Big Sky...

I use a computer making a living and I love my work... but, if anyone had told me before I came to Aces High that I could actually have fun on a computer and meet so many great and enjoyable people while doing so, I would not have believed it.
I was litterally dragged here by someone in real life... now you couldn't drag me away. I'm hooked like the rest of you! I was initially expecting some kind of a silly arcade game populated exclusively by children. Boy was I wrong!
I love to fly but the only game I have ever actually enjoyed in the past on a computer is solitaire... until now. Who'da thunk it?

You are spot on there ... I have been an "MA" flyer since day 1, but I really did enjoy the "good" Team Rooms that H2H offered. I have spent a fair amount of time in those types of rooms and have met some real nice people and have run into a few good sticks. It is too bad that some "bad apples" ruined it for the bunch.
I did run into you one night in a Team Room and despite the outcomes of the fights that we had, your attitude was refreshing ... you always sent a <> or a "nice shot" or a "good fight" ... and the best part ... you kept coming back for more.
That attitude will take you far in the MA ... that type of attitude allows uninhibited learning.

Hiya SlapShot!
I remember you! Good Stik!
Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. I fly because I love to fly and this is challanging and interesting and fun! Most of all, I love the comradery... I don't want to ruin anyone's day but I do work at constant imporvement and it is gratifying each time I learn something new or improve my flying and combat skills.
I am proceeding through the acclimation process of fighting in the MA.
I intend to be the best I can be at this.
But, if/when the Little Sky is turned on again, lets head over to it once in a while and kick some Bish butt! :aok :rofl Wooo Hooo! :D

No, please, stay on the BBS! We already have too many arse kicking muppets around! :D
KK, but I have to bring back fresh kills daily... the boys in the squad constantly snack on their own kills but get hungry for my cooking!
Yummm! Chicken Fried P-47 with a side of poached LA topped with a FlakGun garnish! wooo HOOO! :rofl
If you love flying, you can't but love Aces High. I think I didn't tell you before... welcome in the big sky! :)
Thank you, Sir! You make me feel most welcome!

I agree with wmlute. I am blown away how good these MA vets are, regardless of vehicle, plane, ship.... skills are far superior.
But I enjoyed the limited, far smaller maps, # of players and the 'regulars' regardless of skill - I had more fun h2h than I do ma. I admit - I stink. I was pretty rookie in h2h - far outclassed in ma logically. But h2h had its following because we were medium sized fish in a small pond. In MA, I'm a microbe in a big ocean.

one person that im suprised hasint been out here posting is J312/my niece said he hosted "the greatest h2h fightnight arena"out there and the group of regulars were some of the coolist people she had met
if all the arena H2H were ran az J312s rooms there wouldint have been a reason to close them all down i realize that there are alot morepeople that were good hosts (( salute them all ) my point is there was a community of friends there that cant be made exact in the M A but it can be made though because the same people can form up a squad 101 H2Hfree loaders and be a damn good squad no joke i would like to see more of them cross the bridge / 4 the love of the fight:aok by now the all ammo curse is broken/ they are no lesser pilots than MA fighters or is it the 15 bucks that decides whos good or bad at the game???{Light bulb lights up then burns out n all the moths sigh then hang their heads in dissapointment}:rofl

No, but those 15 bucks grant access to the DA an TA and thousands of players that can help you. H2H has a few good sticks that if you're lucky, you'll bump into once or twice. Paying you have a set of vets who've been playing for years just waiting to help in the TA as trainers. And also other vets who will volunteer their time.
It's like was said earlier(and not trying to be insulting), the H2H rooms are small ponds full of smaller fish. The pay arenas are the ocean where the big fish are.

Hiya Xargos,
I started scouring the net for ACM information and different aircraft performances and comparisions starting when I first came to AH and have learned what I have learned from what I have studied and put into practice.
I will order Fighter Combat: Tactics and Maneuvering by Robert L. Shaw and In Pursuit: A Pilot's Guide to Online Air Combat by Johan Kylander. It's a $40 (plus shipping) investment of money but I think it's worth it.
On external view and massive ammo loadouts, I agree with you on this with regards to many, but not all, in h2h. I allowed extended ammo and external views because many would not fly in the arena otherwise. I would have perferred internal only and realistic ammo.
I am guilty as charged with regards to external view. It was a serious mistake and I should have never allowed myself to get sucked into using it. My bad. I admit it and am now suffering for it. But suffering is good for the soul... I am still adjusting to internal but am also making and landing kills in the MA against MA pilots.
I am seeing steady improvement in that regards. I also started flying a new plane that frankly, I am not yet ready to fly. I need to finish internal view acclimation first; too many variables to handle at once. Setting up and adjusting and saving head positions when looking from different angles helps a lot.
After a short while flying in h2h I found that using the cockpit view was a serious limitation due to shots that, typically, can only be made using external view... such as extreme deflection shots with wings heavily G-loaded where the bandit's lift vector is 90 degrees from the attacker's lift vector and the range was around D300 at the closest point of convergence.
There are useful things to be learned flying external view when learning about bullet deflection when G-loaded so that one can predict bullet deflection when flying internal view.
Also, there were a high percentage in h2h, but not all, who were playing an arcade game... not real flying and not real ACM. Those that did that who were not newbies were easily defeated inspite of how long they had been flying in AH. There are MA pilots who don't know what ACM stands for and can't read an EM chart or even know what EM stands for.
This doesn't apply to everyone who flew in h2h and there were many MA pilots who also flew in h2h who were fully up to speed and cleaned house whenever they flew there. I came up against many of them.
It was with them I gained the most valuable experience.
On the unlimited ammo... it was quite obvious who the sprayers-n-prayers were... just as it is obvious in the MA. I worked hard to keep as good a ratio as possible on minimal bullets per kill. I wasn't the only one with this goal.
It's difficult to generalize about h2h or MA without running into exceptions.
Today, there is no h2h, that is history...
The only baby seals to be found in AH are MA pilots.
The only Aces to be found in AH are MA pilots.
Every pilot flying in AH is an MA pilot.
I am open to fly in the DA with any Ace... the better they are the more I want to fly one on one with them. PM me to set up a date and time and come shoot me down!
But I will record it and learn from it if I get owned. I wont brag about it if I should own and will delete the film once I understand what happened.
I am not concerned with ownage; I am concerned with getting better and better and better.

Tigeress, don't spend so much. You can get it used, in excellent condition, here (http://www.alibris.com/search/search.cfm?qwork=2304307&wtit=Fighter%20Combat%20%20Tactics%20and%20Maneuvering&matches=18&qsort=r&cm_re=works*listing*title) for much less than that.
I have used Alibris many times, especially hunting for out of print and rare books.
Stop by the TA any evening from Tuesday thru Thursday and I'll help you sharpen you MA skills. We often organize 3 on 1 and 4 on 2 events for Thursday evening.
My regards,

Hiya Widewing,
Thank you for that tip on Alibris. I love a good bargain if it from a trusted source I am ordering from!
Ya know? I have never set foot in the TA... not sure why... but I will accept your invitation!
Thank you, Sir!

Hiya Hawkeye,
Thank you very much for your generous and kind words.
I don't believe I ever met j312. It was quite rare for me to fly in any arena other than the arena of a local friend or my own.
Sounds like you are having fun!!!

Sorry, there is no such thing as an h2h pilot.
There are only MA pilots.
And yes it would make all those MA newbies fall and die!

Without the freeplayer HTC can expect see heavy financial losses in the coming months. HTH verses MA, HTH rules. My opinion. It's a game, some of you people may need therapy. An hour or 2 in the arcade is fine. Get a life you people that think that you are expert pilots. Thank you, and goodnight.

I'm trying to figure this out, so maybe you can help me figure out the formula.
200 players (X)
Revenue brought by H2H (Y) = 0
X * Y = Z
Z = 0
I can divide the sum by 0 too, but the value of Z still remains the same.

7years, I'm a genuine free-bee, yet it distresses me when I see someone else claiming that HTC will suffer "extreme" losses because they shut down a service which was ruining their business and causing a steady loss of revenue.
Can you explain why a monthly loss of about $500 justifies re-opening H2H?

Before this thread get's locked for Violating Rule # 13.
H2H wouldn't stand a chance.

H2H should still exist. What game doesn't offer this feature besides AH? What are the negatives and positives about having H2H capabilities?
-
H2H's main problem that it was Hack when it was on. thats the main problem with it.
