Title: Seems AH2 is Officially A Part of History
Post by: bustr on September 19, 2016, 12:42:55 PM
I've been checking the online arena login for AH2 this morning. About two hours ago I was able to login and 20 players were in the MA. Just tried again and I got the popup message about my version was out of date and do I want to upgrade.

AH2 was a lot of fun and I hope she has earned a well deserved retirement in a fun place. Welcome Aces High 3 and a fun future with the new game.

Bye Felicia.

I have had so many great memories with friends in AH2 over the years. Made friends and had them pass away.... just, thanks, HiTech.

I love love love AH3 and its sweet graphics. I hope I can remain a part of what will continue to make it great in years to come. I see so many familiar names who had left AH2. I saw 50 people in each country Sunday night, and it did my heart good.

<S> Salute to all my fellow players.

It's quite symbolic, my last kill made in the Hurricane IID, which for a long time was absolutely 'my signature ride'   :old:

Dallas! Enjoyed our conversations about music and the large pipe organs you used to play in the US Army (bass section). Hope to see you in AHIII soon.  :salute

your dead right jimmy a shiny new Meteor mk III would be the perfect plane addition to push some new marketing.

Also throw in some V1 sites around a teams HQ and when a nearby base is captured they launch around the clock on base / town.  Awesome.

I just noticed that if you want to take a flight down memory sky of AH2 the offline practice still works.

I will miss the game... been here for about 10 years. Met great people... lost a few (bentnail, EEk to name a few)...may they rest in peace.

See you all in AH3... now can I get my frame rate up??!!

Many years ago, my brother suggested I move on from Air Warrior to a brand new game that was "unbelievable."  I did, spent many hours flying with him, and found out that AH was, indeed, unbelievable.  I'll never forget the many times my phone would ring and his voice would be there just saying, "you going up?"  That evolved into texts saying the same thing.  Now, years later, I'm loving AHIII.  Exceptional job by hitech, skuzzy and all the team.   :salute :salute   :banana: :banana: Somewhere, FBDhaus is checking this out and wondering how he can log in.   :aok

Waystin,

Bent would have loved AH3, while at the same time doing ongoing "I told you so's" about how buggy Hitech's game is and it's a conspiracy. :salute

He was honest to a fault while pulling no punches about how he perceived the world.

AH IV!!!!!       :banana:   

start your wishes here;

JETS! 

Start in 1944 WWII & Korea Arena.

Then, keep adding jets!

Doesn't seem as though Heat Seekers would be all that difficult.  Radar, probably quite so.

C'mon HiTech, YOU CAN DOOO EEEET!

Start now with a goal lookin at about 2025!

Hmm, what do I do with all my AH2 films?
I guess I'll store them with my DOS AW, AWFW, AWII and AWIII films . . . if I can find that box of floppies . . .

Just put them all together in movie sets. Later you can pic and choose out of them to make movies. The will not require the AHII player then.

Wish I could have been there for the AH2 shutdown. I was there when AH1 shutdown. I didn't even know AH3 was coming out and I'm only a week late. I guess that happens when you don't log in for a few years.
