I would have said view system but since that was already taken...
 
  Hardware support. I can take any combination of controllers and assign them to whatever I want. I can use my pre pro and my ch pedals, I can use my X36 and my gamepad as rudders, Whatever, it will all work with no muss or fuss.

Looking at a technology standpoint.  The Clipboard and all it's functionality is an extremely powerful feature.

Technically, the clipboard I think is the single biggest thing.

Otherwise, I like the customer service a lot. Call 'em up and you're liable to get HT himself, eager to help. That says a lot, IMO.

the fact that it has taught me about ACM and the energy fight.I just hadnt grasped the concepts from books and documentaries alone.

Now all my reading of AARs in War books is so much better for it.

cant thank HTC enough. <S>

When asking about a revision for flight model, terrain bugs, etc., you don't get a smart assed "2 weeks!" answer.

Development is always continuing for AH   :D

Hmm.  The viewing system is top notch.

The support is amazing.

The pace of development is stunning!

But most of all.... finally a sim that models .50's as they should be.  :)

No CRASHES! I can play for endless hours on my POS 350Mzh and have a tonne of fun.

Oh! and that I asked for the colour blindness (change the colour of your enemies from red to something else) thing to be changed and it was in two days!

I could give HTC a great big KISS!

And my "just another ONE" answer would be customer support, I wish every company could have customer support like this...

As a newbie I like being able to man a field or ship gun after being shot down 10 times in a row. Gets my confidence back up a little seeing something finally burst into flames besides me  :)I know a lot of people hate it, but I think when it turns night, that looks really cool. The moon looks killer  :) Ships were a surprise and I intend to learn more about them this weekend. Really liked that too. I guess I like the variety  :)LeadPump

The realistic fidelity of the AH flight models.

Realistic trim use, especially in pitch.

Engine power measured in inches of manifold pressure and rpm.

Realistic aircraft exterior graphics

3D cockpits.

others - but those above come to mind

Unreal speed of development.

Nice surprises every so often (P47D25 in a patch, loved that one!).

Aircraft/vehicle choices.

Manable guns!

Good community, when the FDB's are busy with sheep anyway  :)

The View system and Flight Model

The selection of planes and loadouts.

The stable game platform that rarely gives me any trouble.

Though I'm very partisan to the Rooks  :)
I'd have to say the thing I love most about this game is the presense of the FDB in Aces High.  Without them, this game would not be as good as it is.  Hehe, I think the only time I ever came close to shooting one of them down was the time I got Fatty twice with a battleship gun from 12k away...LOL.

Its a long list! You want it all in one post or should I put one answer in each?

#1 has got to be flying dawn patrol near clouds as the sun goes up/down. It just doesn't get any better.

#2 Customer support, Ronni, yankee, HiTech pyro, natedog, superfly are all readily accessable to deal with a problem. Plus they do it with a smile.

(Ohh & Skuzzy too! <S> bud)

#3 Special events! Maybe that sounds strange comeing from a CM, but frankly the big events really turn me on. Last nights TOD was AWESOME!

a lot of people have mentioned that customer support is one of the best parts of this game..
i would like to say that the fact that i've never needed to call them up to help solve a problem is the best part of this game. i mean the game runs great, even on my OLD PII 266. no frame rate issues, no CTD's.
good, solid code   :)

#5 Development team that actually LISTENS to whats said on the BB.

#6 Development team that actually knows what they are doing! (WB III took HOW long to get into beta? WWIIOL spent 2 years for THAT!)
