If I were HTC I wouldn't do it this week or next.  There will be patches that will be needed and some tweeks and that will just make the holidays busier and who want that? 

As a matter of fact, HTC, I speak on behalf of all of the grateful players out there that are thankful for your hard work, don't do it until next year.  Just relax.  Take a break.  Fly with us some.  Take a load off.   :cheers:

Hmmm upgrade??

When a game receives new content or some other form of improvement, it's usually considered an upgrade.  I consider this to me a mini-expansion pack myself as well as an upgrade, especially since the WW1 arena is going to be using the new and improved damage model.

I kind of wish we were getting a new terrain with the WWI arenas, even though I realize what we have is pretty much adequate. Maybe just some "front line" tiles, that are shelled out. And I truly hope they have the sense not to put the palm tree terrain styles in the WWI arena.

<Edit> Nevermind

From the Home page right UNDER the Camel pics

"Work on the WWI expansion is progressing along and will be in the next version. We had hoped to have it completed by the end of this year but we're running a little bit long with development. We expect to have it out in the early part of the year."

BTW HTC. the Camel looks great

what would be neat, is if they went back to the Aces high original Hangars with the camoflauged netting and the older looking Tower , etc..... for the WWI terrains/Arena......

and dirt runways  etc. etc.........

need some AI to fly Ballons and Zephrs? ( Blimps? ) I think that's what they called em........ it was before my time, ya know  :bolt:

Regarding the Camel, how simple pressing "E" is as opposed to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6PnKUEFX8g

Thats like how it is in RoF, no spawning in your plane with full throttle and ready to go.  Takes at least 3-4 minutes from start up to taxi to take off.
