Something I want to do is run multiple accounts on multiple computers. So I have a question.
Can I do this? I want to run these accounts on the same country at all times. Since the game takes time I want to set myself up for constant action. 3 accounts constantly in support of each other. If I want to run some fighter sorties while my buffs are climbing to target no problem. Running multiple sets of troops. Coordinating bomb runs. Just on my mind want to hear feedback on it.

Yes you can.

At least one person has done or is doing it already so yes, it can be done. If you get good at it you can be a one man aluminum overcast.

That to me is worth $60 a month :D
I want to use it for buffs, resup, strat defense, base defense while attacking ords, and the list goes on.

This week I saw four c47's flying in formation over a field dropping sups. The id's were basically player, player1, player2, player3. First time I saw that. I assumed it was a player out teaching his 3 kids to fly. :cheesy:

both my kids love to play but still dont quite understand flight yet. Oh my nice idea!

Tunes done it for years. He would fly in, flatten a town or base and do it all over again.

I was told that it was bad for your health ;)
Or maybe it was just Muppet health, or just my health!
I forget the exact "word for word" verbiage or the exact, unaltered and unbiased context!
Maybe someone "on high" can elaborate with the exactly, exact and exacting info!
Just so we can all be exactly informed to the highest and most specific degree!

juggler, you were never told that. they even quoted you what they said.

Nothing wrong with running multiple accounts. It's what you do with them that matters.
Tunes was a one-man wrecking crew in the BOWL scenario. Nobody ever complained that I heard of.

OMG, you are trolling. Nobody would ever do that!

When you are a guest in someone's house to you frequently sneak off and take a crap in their closet? Sneak over to the fridge and spit in the wine? Lure away another guest to speak poorly of your host?
You don't want to play fine. Do your host the courtesy of just keeping your mouth shut please.

I'de like to hear from Skuzzy or Hitech if you can run multiple accounts at once. Can you say have one account bomb a town, One account to deack it, And another account to run a goon?
Or have you main account for doing whatever you normally do and another account or ten to resupply strats?
Can you have ten accounts in a huge bombing mission?

You can do all of that.
Like already mentioned, the Tunes collective at times presented a huge amount of targets manned by just a single player. There's nothing wrong with it.

That is why I want to run 3 systems at once. Basic laptops all next to each other on a table setup for easy access. The way I play this would free up a lot of true playing time. If I dont have to depend on someone else to get what i want done then why not do it.
Dont get me wrong I love the social interaction that comes with team play but if I can have 2 of FineTime at all times....
I mean good grief I will have a set of 29's on standby at 25k at all times im tatical, Lancs for WF, m3 already on standby because I drove it there while my bombers climbed to target :x that potentially free's up everyone else for fighter action :rock That is worth $45 a month to me.
Oh sweet apple pie :banana:

I know this might not sit well with dallas because he is a straight a narrow honest player. With that said he is the kind of guy I can see running 2-3 accounts himself. Smart player with a bright future in this game.

Think of all the conversations you can have with yourself.

Can AH run in another instance on the same machine?

You can run your shades on multiple machines as long as you don't behave in a way that hitech creations finds bad for the game. People seem to panic about an absense of clear cut rules as to what misbehavior is but I think its pretty obvious what you shouldn't do. E.G. resupply yourself from an enemy base with your other account.

I have never cared whether a player ran 2 accounts or more on multiple countries. Havent seen anyone stupid enogh for me to catch them either.
I want multiple options. I have done it with two that is easy. I would like to g to three.

More kills the better :aok

More kills yes...
I dont't see myself running these accounts in formation unless I am on a bombing mission and then I might just run one and fiddle around with something else on the others.
Ideally launching from multiple locations timing runs at different alt's maximizing attacks on the same target is the goal.

on world of warcraft alot of people box they clone their OP system somehow and have 5 accounts running off 1 PC so what the main character does they all do at the same time this is insane because almost unbeatable unless you got a really good group to communicate with, it got worse over the years to the point they got multi classes running off this, about 8 months ago here in Aces high i was a pair of B25Hs doing this attacking a CV not seen it sense but did infact see it once.

I can think of a way it might be done off one set of hardware depending on how VMs work with things like joysticks, but can't imagine bothering with it. I'd imagine it would be kludgy as hell, with inputs going to all vehicles currently being driven.
It could be marginally useful for operating in an area where there's no enemy presence, but just can't see it being useful in a crowd.
Wouldn't really work like WoW though, there's more to AH than targeting and clicking. Having to orient yourself in the game makes a huge difference.

well said :salute
One of the perks to running on multiple systems is the ability to monitor the situation in real time without delay. Timing attacks frees up playing at three at once. The idea I have that others have used is to play on one system with the ability to switch during down times maximizing the efforts. Whether in force or support doesnt matter. :cheers:

I could be wrong, but to me it looks like an idea that's a lot better on paper than in practice. *shrug* If people want to have a bunch of planes in the air that aren't being monitored much, I'll take the kills.

I have ran 2 at once. Its a blast and can be very effective. Its all about timing. When the systems are side by side and your a buff player it makes it a lot easier to manage. For example the time during climbout can be used to drive an m3 to a base instead of a goon. Having 2 sets of bombers and an m3 makes my life a lot easier. I can do it if all 3 are setup with sticks and side by side.
-
I think it would get complicated if you fly 2 sets of buffs in formation together. Id rather launch them at different locations bringing them in at different alts and vectors. It isnt that hard if you can manage the accounts properly. That way if one comes under attack you can focus on it but keeping an eye on the other screens.
Non- stop action turn 1 player into 3. This allows me to attack secondary bases to horde missions. Im real good at observing the map and choosing the right bases to take. As a horde rolls I can keep pace with base takes or distract.
-
Just made my first purchase of a cheap "legal" laptop at $90 off of craigslist. Unbelievable it was just $90. Will barely sqweek by on recommended hardware(not minimal) for AH3 and is perfect for AH2!!! When im said and done im gonna be $400 invested in a 3 account setup :x Some spend that on a joystick alone :neener:
Installing Windows 10 now

I asked HTC a year ago about this issue, in specifics, because I wanted to run 2 accounts (for the same side) and didn't want a "gotcha moment" later should it have been ban worthy -- so I asked officially and got an official answer, yes you can run more than one account.
Many people PM'ed me and blasted me saying I was "anti-spying". They were wrong. I just wanted to still furball while I was doing very, very, very long bomber missions.

Really lets just make a 4th team for all you multiple accounts players, don't think the game was intended to be played that way. But nothing to stop you from doing it. Just curious what are your other 2 game ID's

I'd hate for us all to get in your way. Your just one step removed from enjoying the game without the nuisance of competition. You can be really selective on which bases you do this with.
I've seen this behavior before from others many times. I mentioned it to my country like this on the weekend. If player X (not to be named) is at a base it is because he believes there is little or no risk in their country taking it...and this player does not do risk. I've seen this said player take bases by himself.
Not whining just describing an observed phenomena. Its their $15\mo etc. They are entitled to fly any way they want.

Why don't you just rally team members? You won't need a second or third account.
No matter what you say about how you use it, MANY will think you are playing on more than one team at once: "finding" CV groups, "finding" missions, etc.
Again, no matter what you say, the perception of running multiple accounts is negative.

I never found anything negative with tunes running his Borg collective of Lancasters.
And about rallying team members.. depending on time of day, that can be very difficult just because of the number of players online. At the time the Bishops were about to win SFMA yesterday, it was 21 Bishops, 4 Knights, 9 Rooks. Now if you think that only very few players have the standing to rally more than 10% of their side for a mission.... "just rallying your team" can be very difficult.
-
I don't know about tunes, but this wizz person is boasting that nobody will know the name of one of his shades.... I wonder why...

Given time and players share information on country channel and in here.
2 Weeks at best.
Then Wizz does have a need for attention here on the BBS. Maybe 2 days if he can contain himself that long.
