Title: Well I think it's great (Anti whine post)
Post by: snafu on December 28, 2000, 08:36:00 PM
Hi All,
 Finally tonight I managed for 1st full session on 1.05, 3 hours, no disco's, very little warping, 188 people online. I still died more than I survived, I still fell through the carrier deck after making my 1st successful landing,   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif) My FPS could have been measured with a calender around the enemy fleet (PII 400 Voodoo 2 - What did I expect) but hell, this is F!"Ģing amazing. This isn't a new release it's a whole new game, and I can't get F4's etc to fly off the carrier without giving rudder to correct swing (Torque whatever). Hey I know there are bugs but, I'm more than happy to accept HTC's figures on the flight model. It doesn't have to be hard to be accurate (And no I haven't flown a real WW2 fighter - but I have flown a real plane). It's not the posts in the Bugs forum which piss me off it's the comments elsewhere. If HTC had wanted to sort everything out we would have got this end of 1st quarter 2001. We got it when we wanted it. I for one am happy to be allowed the chance to shape the way this game is going. (Been around since V0.37 Beta, toejam remember the ack, lethal or what)!! Even if it means getting things which are only 95%. I don't give a toss about the score, I'll "up" at a vulched field as many times as it takes to "Stop that gooney" (Who's stupid me - or you for leaving the hanger up)? Perk points probably mean I will end up with the squadron skateboard but WTF. All I'm trying to say is You wanted 1.05, you got it, now help make it right.

Flame away.....

Just logged off at 3:15am UK time, after 5 hours play.

Agree with all the above. Great job HTC. Now just bring the Ki84  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I agree completely SNAFU. Everyone whines when they don't get the new build, then they whine when it is released. Having been here since the Open Beta, I know each release is always buggy (They can't test everyones machine theirselves) and they always do a kick bellybutton job of trying to work out all the bugs quickly. <S!> to HTC for another excellent build!

Are there things I would change about it? Sure. But HTC will make some of the changes I am thinking of as they gain experience with how the new build is used. For now, I am just having fun getting the feel of the latest playground HTC has provided us.

Yep, youre right here
It's great to be among 250 addicts in the Arena. An unforgetable expirience. It's worth the $30.
About the whinin. It's Human nature never to be satisfied. But hey, please not so loud  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)We all try to come clear with the bugs.
HTC is doing a great job here.


And about this BBS. Hmm... :rolleyes

Agree 100%

I have never ever had this much fun in AH before, and it surpasses the top of my greatest moments in WB too(In the old days when HT and the guys was in charge there)

Hey Snafu, agree 100%.  We wanted 1.05 for Christmas and we sure got it!   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)  I just need extra cushions on my seat though because I'm getting a sore butt sitting here for hours and hours!   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
