Hello,
A parallel thread gave me this idea. Perhaps have AH post a vote for 4-5 changes (as they did many times in the past). We vote on which new change\addition we want to do. Then crowd fund (kickstart etc.) it to make it happen.
As you all know in many\most new games these days you get perks and\or mods if you pay for them.
Just a thought.
Have a nice day,
X15 :salute

I would contribute to:
- Finish the Tempest fund
- Create new seasonal map tiles (autumn & early spring with partial snow cover remaining) and new, smaller maps based on real-world locations. Also I think the terrains would look more realistic if the rocks were much less shiny.
- Revamp of the transportation system. More trains, marshaling yarsd in cities and ports, freighters which deliver supplies to ports, which are unloaded with cranes and loaded onto train cars. Trains run to large & medium field towns, truck convoys run from these towns to the towns at small airfields. Railroad tunnels through mountains, and realistic-looking trestle bridges which trains and trucks actually cross.

+1 But a pipedream this is. HITECH is checked out.

We already crowdfund $15/month for an inexpensive to run server and no employees.

Rarely do wishes in this forum get traction. Thanks for all the responses. :aok
The ball is in your court HiTech. Please post a poll of 4-6 new features that you are willing to implement. Maybe let it run for a week or two. Then post the results and we'll take it from there.
Thank you. :salute

Sorry but I personally dont expect anything else new anymore unless more subs come and more money comes in the game.........

Meatwad, do you work for HiTech Creations?
Thank you. :salute

I take that as a no. You don't work for Hitech.
None of us know what Hitech will do. I just might call them though and find out from the source.

Excellent idea! Just ask him if he's busy at the moment, or has a few minutes to answer your questions 😉

btw.... I would love to see the Beaufighter put in the game...or at least the A-26

Wouldn't it be better for the players who pool their money in a crowd funding venture to be the buyers of the game? Then, they can make all their dreams come true,
From over 8 plus years ago, the price was around 5 million dollars.

Kuya,
I've actually had this exact thought recently! However, it would need to come with a solid business plan that said 'pool of buyers' agree to. Group leadership and consensus would be difficult. This is all predicated on HiTech even WANTING to sell in the first place!
But, it has been a sometimes-oft daily fantasy of mine. Would be awesome to get a player collective together and find some way to perpetually fund the server host fees, maintenance, etc. Let's start a Kickstarter!
Maybe when I retire in a couple years I could become the new face of Aces High, hehe. I've played since ~2000'ish timeframe and I'm just aloof and extraverted enough to keep the optimism alive!

When I get that lotto windfall...
I'll be changing the name of the Melee Arena to Kuya's Slaughterhouse. :devil
-
you guys buy the game and it will die within months.
assuming it costs 5 million bucks and 10 of you put the money together.
first fight will be where to set up the servers. second who to hire to run the game. third and last fight will be what changes you want.

In the meantime, there certainly is consensus for crowdfunding changes to the game by HiTech. The ball is in their court on this now.
Alternatively, clear communications as to the statement of direction of the game would put everyone at ease. Such a commitment would retain players and even attract new ones. :old:

:headscratch:
You posted a thread where a half dozen people mentioned (as it usually happens every time changes come up) that fixing the Tempest model would be a good idea, in a place that approximately 5% of the playerbase even knows about, and you call that "traction" and a meaningful consensus.
Wow.
Wiley.

Wiley,
BBS "responders" only represent a vector of the 465 people that have read it so far. I've also asked many people in-game and they are very favorable to the idea.
The ultimate judge of traction is HiTech. He reads all the posts.
Wiley thanks for posting. :salute

I'm curious is there another subscription based MMOG out there with zero development that requires "crowd funding" to get added content? Would like to check out their forum.

How do you know that? Inquiring minds want to know. Well at least one.
