Title: Fighter Ace - don' t bother
Post by: Sincraft on May 31, 2009, 12:45:01 PM

Just in case you were feeling frisky and wanted to try Fighter Ace, I would recommend against it.  You will just waste 30 mins of your life.

I can't express how disappointed I was in this game.  I heard good things about it, figure I would see what they had vs Aces High 2.

If possible, the graphics in that game are no where near as good as AH2.   More over, it's basically an arcade game.  Worse, they actually charge $15/month to play it lol.  It's an arcade game with a few people playing at any given time (Sunday mid day,...I saw MAYBE 3 people). 

I did like their plane briefing and slider controls for convergence..EVERYTHING else was bad bad bad.

Again, save your time and money (although they have a free trial available) and stick to AH2.

 I tried FA a few years ago. Wasn't worth the time to download. Tried it a few months ago. Same thing. Waste of time. Along the same line I played WB before AH and it was nearly dead when I left. It isn't even close to AH. Their WW1 game has a couple of flyable planes and while overall its a disappointment, it can be fun for a short time.

When I last played it the best thing they had going was there strat system. Other than that in 1999-2001 when they has TONS of people playing online.
