Title: Ah
Post by: ozrocker on April 01, 2007, 08:05:26 AM
All

I have made Hitechcreations a buyout offer, and Dale and company have accepted.
I will hold HT for a few months pending a resale to Electronic Arts. They have promised me(and in contract), that AH will not be done like AW was, and that price will not increase. I hope to run the ship in the same manner(albeit, only for a short while). Except for 1 major change. I intend to put HT out as an IPO on NASDAQ, on the 15th of this month. HT sale will take effect on 5 Apr 07 at 6:00 A.M. All current subscribers will be given 5 shares of HT(will be listed as HTCR on NASDAQ), with an initial IPO price of $22.50
I expect to raise a significant amount of working capital after IPO. As in usual IPO's, unless you have a $100,000 or more to invest, usually brokers will not work your money in until a stock reaches a stable market price. That's when they will accept smaller amounts for stock purchase from regular consumers.
I am also looking into making a WW1 era simulation, similiar to AH2, as well as a Naval WW2 Sim. As your new owner and co-player, I fully expect all to maintain your levels of fun, and CT will absolutely be out in 2 weeks.

OMG NOOOOOO!!!  :O


EA bought out Airwarrior and killed it within 6 months. Glad your post is only for fun or I would be canceling my subscription and looking for another place to fly. :eek:

Let us hope and pray that EA never gets their hands on this game...

Later,

AW was dead long before EA took over.  by the time EA got its hands on it, AW was a virtual zombie.

I don't remember AW being dead before EA.

Ack-Ack I agree with you. I flew AW from early 90's to its demise. My point was that EA actually killed it not that it was running great until EA came along.
