HTC needs to expand the game eras to include the early jet fighters in the cold war like migs,thundercheifs,F9F Panther and the like. Maybe "Aces High- Jets Edition"

How about just the Korean War?

If I'm right, the technology between Vietnam and Korea were worlds apart, Korea was still gun fighting, not missiles.

That was a problem early in the Vietnam war. With all the "rules of engagement" imposed on our pilots by McNamara's whiz kids, airplanes like the F-4 were at a disadvantage. The Migs had guns, we only had Sidewinders and such. We learned our lesson though and those aircraft without built in guns began carrying gun-pods.

I say let's start at the begining. let's have a ww1 arena. This has been requested many times. imagine how many people will want to play there all the time.

Game. Set. Match?
It's true, though. WW1 arena has little or no real objective. It gets old. Even our beloved MA gets dull at time with the same strategy (we need a slight revamp IMO). Anyhow, to stay on track, I believe a "jet only" arena would not spawn a whole lot of interest.

well, from an old screenshot pyro released of te b29 in "hitechs" hanger before it was released, in the background you see a fully modeled&skinned mig15 and f82 sabre.
plus we have the b29. a korean era bomber.
we have the t34's which served in korea.
we have the shermans (but not the right model for korea).
now all we need is the pershing.
and we have everything needed to get a korean arena going :aok

Yes we do. The M36 also served.

Love the Enthusiasm, but if I remember correctly, AH spans the SECOND WORLD WAR. You want Migs and Phantoms and F-86's, heard there are a few systems out there that may fit your thirst for Jets...FLight of the Intruder for Nintendo for instance. :bhead
-
I think AH needs a WWI arena first. We all know there would be more interest in WWI than Korea.
:huh

but if I remember correctly, AH spans the SECOND WORLD WAR.
there is an off chance you don't remember correctly :aok
-
the guy is right we need the Meteor.
-

So it spans more than WW@ and the 1 WW! Arena??? I know some of the AC began with some service in Korea, but you know what I mean Irish. The Meteor would be the only other Jet that could be added to AH, and it only flew in the last weeks of the war.
-
No.
If HTC is going to add another jet, let it be the Glostor Meteor Mk III and then shelve the idea of adding in more jet aircraft for at least 5 years.
Forget the Korean War (no reverse pun intended), and maybe add in a wee bit more into the WWI arena. There are MANY things to update, add, and hone in the WWII realm, the list in never ending. :)

just an FYI, but you said nothing of WW1 in your OP, all you said was Love the Enthusiasm, but if I remember correctly, AH spans the SECOND WORLD WAR.

I'd much rather see the Gloster Meteor or the He-162. Getting more Me-262 variants would be up there as well - I'd like to play with dive bombing in one, and I'd like to see the R4M rockets vs the B-29.

no@ the rockets, it would be the disaster of the old 210mm anti-air rockets all over again.
the me262 is deadly enough, lets not give it even more firepower.

theres an easy way to kill a 262 in a bomber. just start firing when you got an open shot and hes less than 1.5k away...works for alot of people.

i know this skorpion, ive shot down my fair share of 262s.
but from your statement im guessing you dont know anything about R4M rockets or there effective range.

there effective range really can differ from pilot to pilot. ive had people shoot down my B24's from 2k away in F6F's with rockets. if people can do that with normal rockets imagine what could happen with R4M rockets

Why do Tyrannis and Skropion attempt to troll each other in EVERY THREAD.

If we create another arena there will be even less people in the MA. This is no time for expansion.

naw we will just have another empty arena, just like the ww1 arena. once the novelty is gone then everybody will be back to the ma.

well i have an idea for that..if the arena is vacant (0-10) player per day then close it out forever?

So in a nutshell you're saying to expend many many resources to open an arena which is bound to fail and once it does, close it down. I'd rather spend $14.95/mo in the hopes resources will be allocated differently.

How is a Korean areana "bound to fail"?

How is a Korean areana "bound to fail"?
AvA and WW1 arenas have an incredibly small following. I blame this largely on the lack of objective involved. Constant furballing with no goal or reward gets old pretty quickly. I tried the WW1 arena for a bit. At first it was fun because it was new and different. Then after one hour I was bored and didn't bother again. My prediction of a Korean arena is stemmed purely from the past trend of similar arenas.

1945 to 1975 "GUNS ONLY" jet arena :O

no.no.no

IMO if HTC adds a jet fighting arena then they will not only be able to advertise a larger coverage of gameplay but they will also get a large group of people joining that are looking for early jet fighter multiplayer games. They are not easy to come by, I've looked.
Personaly I think It would be cool if there was an arena for jet fighters made during and before the Korean war just to add some variaty and to see how they would stack up against each other.
-
no.no.no
Agreed, no jets! If you want jets buy ArmA 2! Jets were too seldom! Enough 262s!

well, from an old screenshot pyro released of te b29 in "hitechs" hanger before it was released, in the background you see a fully modeled&skinned mig15 and f82 sabre.

He's nuts, F82 was pre Korea, more like the F80 Shooting Star.

It was never posted on the front page. Pyro posted the pic in one of the numerous "how long till the b29 is finished?" topics way back during the winter to show how the b29 was coming along. in the background you can clearly see an f86 and mig15.

Footnote: Fictional aircraft to seven o'clock?
It is an F82 perhaps an F100 Super, however I highly doubt it's release.
-
what?... :headscratch: the f82 is the twin mustang, but for some reason i always call the f86 sabre the f82. idk why i do it.

if your referring to the jet in the pic, the one hanging on the left is clearly an F86 sabre...and the one in the background an mig15

That's the "Claw" from the last con mission.
There's also the Shark with the freakin' laser and the RV-8 with 20mm gatling guns from past cons as well as Santa.
The only things that haven't flown in AH2 in that pic are the F-86, MiG15 and V-2, so far....

they already have the sabre and mig????????? why aren't they letting us have it????? this is like my gf showing my a bit a skin and telling me... i may get lucky tonight...geeeez.... stop with the torment already!

Only place the mig/sabre would fit into the game would be in there own Korean arena.
Things we have towards the arena:
Bombers-
America:The B-29 is already in game.
Russia: the TU-4 would not be hard at all to model from the B29.
Fighters-
America: The Corsairs and Mustang can be used to model there korean counterparts. and from that pic we have the Sabre.
Russia: we have Yaks, and from that pic we have the Mig15
Tanks-
America: We have shermans, just not the right model.
Russia: We have both models of the T34.
That should be enough to get an arena up&running. HTC is most likely just shy to create a korean arena now with the failure&lack of numbers the ww1 arena has.

i say take away early war server and retrofit it for korea...so not much is lost or spent on new servers.... it may get empty as ww1, but at least, we have a choice they could make it strictly an arena just for the sabre's and migs.... but thats just my take...

No, because there are some of us who DO like EW and fly in it regularly.

hmmm... :headscratch: then maybe they have to weigh the numbers somehow... just trying to help them save some cash cos the other alternative is to have it on a separate server...i'm sure the hitech guys are clever enough to solve it..soon i hope :pray before i grow old :old:...

Servers are virtual machines. They share the same IP.
It costs almost nothing to make 10, 20, 100 of them.
That's not the issue.
