Whos gonna be the first to tell the AGW crowsd? :) oh, thats right, they are free for the month of August (there's a reason why too! ;) )
-
thx HTC, though didn't mind the higher price, always looking to save a few $$
<S>
-
I was hoping this day would come. This is an incredible price cut!
Thanks HTC!
-
I have mixed emotions about this but for me it means I can can sure keep paying for AH come this October when our second child arrives. I'd been questioning whether I would (or could) continue to pay for AH when my flight time would be next to nill for a few months - but now I have no problem at all.
I just hope (sincerely!) that HTC can continue as they were or better - more in regard to thier personnal, professional and financial success.

Don't forget that this is a time for negotiations: "Sweetheart, what would u do for me if I cut that expensive AH-bill in half?"

Salute!

Hummm... I'm happy but abit worried. I wonder what sort of crowd this will bring in?
The good point is that now some great folks who just couldnt see the justice in footing 30.00 amonth will now be able to join.
I hear the death toll of AW3...

HTC, Thanks.
My job of course is suffering because of this. First the CT and now a price cut, I just can't consentrate. I wan't to leave for home now.

We definitely want people to know about it, but I ask that everybody who disseminates this information does so by appropriate and respectful means. We have a great community here, but a lot of people think the opposite because of outside interactions of a few. That is wrong.

Unbelievable!!..I will be contacting every person I know in the FS community and posting on every board I know about,Just imaging the numbers we gonna have..Hello new arenas!!!..Great move HTC! :) :) :)
-
WooHoo!!! Thanks HTC!
It's interesting, when the open beta ended I didn't start up an account, mainly for three reasons.
1. The red enemy icons. In fact, I quit playing AH before the beta ended, mainly because of the red enemy icons.
2. The price. I still enjoyed AW back then, so $10 was a bargain compared to $30.
3. AW had scenarios, AH didn't.
Several months ago, I came to terms with all three of these issues, and started to enjoy AH anyway.
Now, in these (7?) months (since I started playing again), all three of these issues have since been resolved--icon color is now adjustable, Tour of Dutys are starting up, and now the great new price!
WTG HTC (and the events team)!

I have several friends woh are good sticks with a lot of AW time (but rather cheap)who will have no excuse but to give AH a good try.
Frankly, as far as the maturity issue is concerned, the community has the power to set an acceptable tone -- for example, .squelch (massively, instead of arguing with these Dorks and making it worse)when certain people begin being disruptive. If the community can't handle it, then AH can take a more agressive tone with people who cause constant problems. I'm more Libertarian than not, but this is a public area and personal rights like free expression come with responsibilities like civility and manners. At least that's how I was raised.

This is an inevitability, Westy. There is sufficient competition for this type of game to make the move wise. More, it seems the trend is to move to larger worlds. Is it so far-fetched to imagine that AH might one day add infantry? Gotta have numbers to make that happen. It does seem to be the direction of the industry, and the first sim to really successfully pull off combined arms is going to make someone rich.

Can you spell
W-O-O-D-Y!!!!!
Not bad, HTC, not bad at all. This month you get an "A" for both effort and performance.

This is a tired old argument. While it is certainly true that at a lower price we will have a larger player base and it will certainly allow those of lesser means play, I fail to see any direct relation to it having a large negative impact on the comunity. I think that a higher price does not equal a good comunity...I mean...look at AOL...the highest price ISP in the US.
1) I've played online sims since before most people even knew they existed. To the best of my recolection, I started out paying $6/hour + my regular internet fee which was $45/month for 40 hours. We had jerks at that insane price too.
2) Dont we already have complete bozos now (as in before this price change)?
3) In my professional carreer, I have found that there is absolutly no direct corelation between wealth and being a pleasant person, in fact it is often quite the opposit.

Thanks HTC! Although I wasn't going anywhere wrt AH, fiancee and I just bought our first home together, and your new pricing really does help out.
cheers!

Considering the current occupants, I'm sure they'll only be a considerable improvement <EG> Hi Rip and Goobermeister ;)
Yeah, its a slow day on AGW as your local amb"ass"adors will attest to.
Cheers and congrats

Roger all that Kieran. "More encompassing" is the buzz phrase (and direction) these days :) Which personally I like.
I removed my gratuitious poke after reading Pyro's post and I'd have done the same after getting to yours further down.
Lugnut! Say hi to MG eh?

Man, this has been a great week for myself and AH! First, I hear that some problems with my plane are getting looked at for 1.08. I see we are getting some new planes in addition to several other improved features. Then, I check my email and see this! Wow, it really is Christmas in August (well, not really, but damn close :)).
Cheers HTC, and it is with my heartfelt thoughts that this works out for the best for you guys!

Man SWulfe, you need to get out to some better establishments. Perhaps if you make it to the con we'll enlighten you (I'm not above making that sacrifice for a fellow player).

Thank you HTC!!!! :D
I sure hope your business does well with the new rate, I know you researched the rate change for quite awhile.
Good luck!
-
Thank you HTC. You are the best company in the entire planet!! I had purchased a month at the beginning of august and was debating continuing in Sept...no debate now.
Plus, alot of my friends have tried AH but found the costs ($45+ Cdn) prohibative. Not any more. :D

Thanks HTC, I will be resubscribing now ;)

You are SO right, Kieran.

I heard a rumor once about a guy named Lance that was supposed to be designing a website or something.....could be wrong though.

Well, I guess this validates their earlier promise about evaluating different pricing plans! Good timing too. I've been sorta strapped for cash lately, and have been finding it harder and harder to justify my habit :) Once again, HTC comes through for us!
Thanks

A newbies is joining along with few of my squadmates that can afford know wahooooo. Thx HTC.

Now I don't have to wait until I finish school to join the main arena! Even a poor starving student can afford that... if the car doesn't break down again :D
Thank you HTC, I will be joining as soon as I have time to play... in a day or two when I start a mini vacation before school starts again.
