 :aok     Welcome aboard sir    :salute

Im not sure if ur flying with a mouse or not, but you can get a real inexpensive flight stick ($20/$30) and it makes a world of difference. If you find its gonna be a long term thing ( it will this game is horribly addictive) Then spend the big bucks on a more expensive set up.

Have fun sir <S>

There's a big difference between good fights and a swarm of horde-boyz...looks like you found the rare mix of a little of each.  :D

Welcome aboard, and remember it's a game and you're meant to have fun!

Didn't know the company was up for sale nor saw it on EBay.  :O Guess HT got fed up.

When are we getting new planes??? Where are the missiles and lasers??? Arena limits stink!!! Why won't my bullets hit the plane at 2k out???




All seriousness aside ... welcome and have fun! :salute

I don't think this game is 'that' addicting like warcraft/starcraft.
Aces High is like playing golf in comparison :t

Oh and give us,
 incendiary bombs,
 supply shipping to sink (not barges),
 LSTs to spawn tanks ashore,
A clipboard that doesnt become transparent when held up to the sun. While we're at it, Sunglasses.
 terrain effects when driving GVs over different terrain or roads,And fiddering sounds to go with them
 V1 Rockets,
 P61's.
Thermal effects when flying over burning fields/installations,
 Varying weather, Turbulence,
Anti tank mines. Dragons teeth fortifications,
 secondary explosions with parts flying hundreds of feet in the air,
carrier pigeons,
The ability to perma squelch the moderator.
 40s style pubs and USO style nightclubs complete with original performers.
 A better view of the hangar aircraft for skin selection,
 a Cigar lighter for my 190,
 C-rations for those long spawn camps.
Invasion balloons,
a trailing oil slick for damaged CVs,
 llamas, more sheep and Pretty farm girls in the barns (for relief from those long spawn camps and long walks back after bailing or ditching)
A Field of cannabis for DrDgr.
War news coming over the radio in the O'club.
 Country flags at the map room of each field that changes with possession change.
A bear that looks like a rock. A rock that looks like a bear
A different large map for every Titanic Tues.
Perk values on higher ranked players.
the ability to transfer perks among squad members
"Killroy was here" graffiti in the towns.
Radar towers away from the fields
ME-210's
More Jap planes
A German transport

Gimme some time. I'll think of more

They say that cigarettes are the most addictive thing on the planet.  That is far from the truth...


Aces High claimed you prior to going online.  You were only delaying the inevitable...  Now your soul....belongs to Aces High...   :devil

Welcome to the business,


Try all the arenas,  early, mid, late,   and especially the AvA arena that is always trying to be historically accurate with accurate planesets on both sides.   

All arenas will prep you for the plethora of events to come on Wednesdays,  Friday nights,  Saturdays,  Sundays.

Find a good squad you feel comfortable with, those will greatly improve your learning and lessen the bumps in the road.
