I just logged off after 16 hours. 4pm-8am. I finally just had to park the ole Pee51 because I was pretty much brain dead.
I swear this game is like online crack for me sometimes. I hate it because I love it....if that makes any sense.

Where's Midway? :noid
I think the longest I pulled was around 6 hours in a row? I usually just run 1-2 sorties, log, play a match in BF3, Shogun 2, Call of Duty, League of Legends, or Skyrim, then hop back on.
I can never sit there and play a game for more than a few hours straight, no matter how good it is.
-
6 maybe 6.5 hours. After that my eyes can't even focus anymore.
-
:headscratch: not sure, but guessing 30 hours once or twice in my first year. :banana:
-
I've done 3-hour missions with LCA, but on my own I rarely go over 2 hours.
-
I did an 8 hour single sortie once, kept refueling my Mosquito 16, and that's also the longest I've continuously played. Landed 70,000 points for it too. Was stupid but fun.
-
During Battle Over Germany, to include prep work as XO 4 hours. Other than this maybe 3 hours a pop. And AH is the only game I play. No Xbox, or anything else. No interest or time. Mostly I get to do 1 hour at a time 4 or 5 times a week.
Boo

I've thought about doing something like that in a Stuka. It would be fun :airplane:
-
I'll have to say no more than 8 hours, but normal is 2 to 3.
-
I think I played close to 24 hours once. Just never felt like logging.
-
I'm away from keyboard for about 60% of my arena time.

Ah. Buff driver/tank spawner.

I remember pulling a couple of 16 hour nights myself in my first year. Summer break, wake up at lunch and play AH until the early hours of the morning.
-
when they found me, my eyes were bleeding, i was drooling, and i had blisters on both hands from the joystick and throttle. 4days later, after i came out of my coma.............
-
Those days are long behind me, but the longest I logged was probably about 16-20 hours straight. It was a night where a few of us (Warhed, Baba, JunkyII, Tec, Bustr, + Others) Flew like 8 sectors and captured the Me163 base that was mistakenly capturable. Me, warhed, and baba then stayed up overnight defending it until about 11am before knights started crying to Skuzzy about how we captured their base and Skuzzy came and fixed it. :ahand

pffft... I probably did that a 100 times in my first year. :headscratch: :uhoh

around up to 10 hours in WB and in AH a couple of times, but my longest happend in 1984 playing ELITE, the best space combat game ever, on a BBC Micro
-
Whenever I see Grizz online flying in AH, I smile a little more.... just saying.... :)
:rock
-
I've gone a couple of days/nights that were 20+ hours. Squaddies leave from squad night, log back on the next evening or the next morning and there I am. Practicing on getting shot down. :P

In the early 90's I was a phone tech support for Media Vison sound card company. They payed my phone fee to play Air Warrior so I could support sound issues. MV had a partnership with Thrust Master, so I got free equipment and parts to play the game for them also. I regularly got home Friday nights after work and logged on until sunday night around midnight. Didn't hurt that my room mate also worked for MV and no one in the game knew we had our monitors side by side. Pulled alot of rope a dopes over those years.
You've all heard of "Snail Mail"? We had 2ft "Shouting Snail Vox". We had our sound hooked up to 4 sterio floor speakers and 2 amps. One hot summer night the neighbors called the police thinking we were having a shoot out in the house becasue we had the windows open and the amps cranked up while shouting to each other over them. That was a good case of beer.
-
i once played for 18 hours straight then fell asleep for 12 on my chair with ah on. so about 30 sounds right.

Get a job and a haircut young man! :old:

iirc RedTop did a 2 day sortie in his 51, just parked up in an indestructable hangar overnight and it was still there when he checked in the next day!
-
I probably logged in a 12 hour session before. I lawn darted in bed with my hands still in the HOTAS setup.
-
:rofl :rofl :rofl The whining from that..I woke up and you were still playing!!!!
Haha, for those that were lucky enough to be a part of that know it was a legendary night. Btw it was you that said the town was down when the church was still up. Lucky bustr had the backup goon. :airplane:
-
6hrs, ate & drank at the console, peed when AFK, any longer and I'd have to put in a catheter & leg bag. Plus my butt was sore....need a better chair. :airplane: :old:
-
back years ago when I first got addicted I would play every day, until 3-4 in the morning, I think the longest I played straight was in the high 20 hr mark......with a few hour nap and back to it for another 20 hrs :rofl
that's actually when most just wanted to fight :(

Logged in at 4PM and logged at 455AM....and I forgot to eat dinner. I thought it was around 1AM when I finally looked at the clock.
I am the only person to have a confirmed kill (Cropgun) while logged in on an airline flight...American Airlines WiFi!!! Now, that is an example of being out of control when you whip your Logitech joystick out on a business flight...

I remember years ago, AH 1 I think, a fellow squaddie and I drove lvts to take down HQ. I remember we drove those things for like 3 hours to get there. Had a blast
-
It really is a blast and I feel about 50% of the current arena population haven't ever had the fun of destroying the strats and the trains supplying them.......ever.
I try to do it at least 3 times per tour minimum.
-
Wow! I thought 6 hrs was a long time to be on here... :old: :rofl
-

You people with all those long hours are:
1) Retired
2) Independently Wealthy
3) Live with Mommy and Daddy
4) Live off the Tax Payer
5) Better Half is the Bread Winner
6) Play while at work
7) Live in "BumF---k nowhere
8) Have nothing better to do
9) On Leave/Vacation (from a job)
10) Are Virgins
More power to ya for being able to play that long. Undoubtedly there are many more reasons, feel free to add.
Muttman
Sick Puppies
BTW, the times I played for any length of time were related to #9 and #7.
-
Longest was about 6 hrs. I set a goal of trying to land a 4 re-arm stuka sortie, I was bombing over an enemy V-base with a good GV fight going on instead of doing milk runs so it took awhile and a good number of deaths before I met that goal.

12. Get payed to play for tech support reasons.
I got payed to play AW way back in the PC dinosaur days to support sound card issues over the phone. Now days most everything works and AH is addictive for the new player just starting out. Or addictive personalities are attractied to AH kind of games.

1 year? thats pretty ok. How does it feel to have been ignored for a year? :salute
-
I think I've played for 7 hours straight or so once or twice. Get a few squaddies on, or a decent fight that refuses to die, and it's easy to do.
