Name two things, that in your mind , that AH III has been added to the game that wasn't in AH II that has attracted new players.... not a hard thing to answer it just two things
-
VR and a better mouse user interface!
:salute

Everything and going on steam :old:
If you dont like the game dont log in, i dont eat butterbeans, because they are puke, i never log on to the butterbean forums and complain.
VR will never catch on it the betamax of gaming gear.
People want a big 📺

So you didn't have 2 things that you think were improvements? Just asking maybe, I'm missing something..

Dude just leave already, instead of sprinkling your Grinchely bitterness all over AHIII.

I'm not a new player so I would have to survey the new players and find out what features they like the most and then see if they were here in AH2 ..I will get back with you : :salute

Just answer the question.......is it that hard?

No. But I'm notoriously insubordinate and decided to answer your meta question instead. I'm sorry your sub-game has dried up. Try something else, hell I'll even help you with your ACM if you like or learn ground attack in a Stuka or just go with grace and class and consider that in the scheme of things and for the overall health of the game individual even long-term players don't count for much compared to getting new people in. There's plenty to do in and out of the game.
AH2 isn't coming back and nor should it.

Thanks for the offer, the same offer is extended to you to show you some of the things we do in GV's.... I helped teach 49Hack some of the tactics we do, I wish he was back home and could join in, he spoke well of you.

Sorry if I was a bit snotty. I'm from a background of creativity. That's how my folk have always crawled out of tight spots. I would certainly drive GVs with you in the new year if you're still around. I do empathise with your position.
Whatever happens bud I wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

The two best things? I saw nrshida in the Melee arena the other day. There couldn't possibly be a better thing, and Zack1234 is still here. He is awesome, and shida is outstanding!
HUZZAH!!!

UPDATED TBM 3D MODEL!
All the TBM fans left IL2 and Warthunder and moved to AH3.
All of them.

Having a hard time with this one.. as it is the qualities of the new players I question.
I admire the old returning vets of 1 and 2 who are willing to tolerate the community of 3 in order to have fun with what balanced game we have left.

Remembering the shenanigans of AHII 10 years ago, I don't see any problems with the community of AH3 at all (other than being mostly antiquated, lacking young players).
Quite of the percieved shortcomings of AHIII's player base are, for example, just a result of much lower overall numbers.

Yeah.. perhaps so, my friend. Can't quite put my finger on it. Overall, I haven't been nearly as inspired to play 3 as frequently as I did in 2. Something lacking that was here before that the "powers that be" "fixed" right out of the game. :frown:
-

More clouds and maybe pea souper fog :old:
Shortcomings of players?,I think there are less idiots on now than 5 years ago because we choose to be here :)
The clowns can choose other inferior flight sims to flex their spuds and be Alpha Males in cartoon land :)

No idea if new players are attracted or not, but if I were a noob (and not simply noob-like), I would be attracted by the new dueling system AND by the clouds.

Anything that I think is bad with AH3 I thought was bad in AH2...except Buzzsaw.
I think Match Play and VR updates has the most potential for the game against it's competitors.
Every graphic update is a good thing, some of the clipboard updates I thought were unnecessary. The FOV slider is awesome.
Things I'd like to see changed is town resupply and man guns....specifically the 88 shooting at planes who are fighting. I believe friendly fire should destroy the gun.
-
The new terrain is great. HUD for people not going for more immersion is also a good addition. I love that SB's now have map icons, and can show flashing for enemies.
All in all, I think the things they've done to increase the chances of PvP combat are very helpful to the game.
I personally think the changes to the GV game were needed, and should have happened sooner. The AHII mass spawn camps or 3K+ sniping shots were detrimental to the game, and very unrealistic when it came to historic tank combat in WWII. Between the new trees which severely limit long range sniping and make finding a good spawn camp more difficult, I think it allows players able to actually engage in combat and not just be fodder for the few people.
For all the complaints and saying we need to go back to how it was in AHII -- I would say we should go back to how it ORIGINALLY was in AHII and give me 6K icon range on GVs and let me drive a jeep inside of your tiger II and machinegun you to death. :devil

My wife can't eat this due to religious dietary restrictions.
Most interesting fact in this thread so far.
Was not aware butter beans fell into a category for religious exclusion.

I hear that GVdar is very popular. :D
-
Clouds, more and better terrain detail, the ability to know GVs exist when they are attacking, more free arenas, VR.

Yes they are food of the devils spawn :old:

I'm not sure what they added by I know for a fact my beer tastes better when playing AHIII than it did with AH2.
I'll have to see if it had the same effect with bourbon over the holidays to have my second thing.

There once was a girl named Anheuser,
who said that no man could surprise her.
But Pabst took a chance,
found the Schlitz in her pants,
and now she is sadder Budweiser.

I like the trees, daytime sky, hills, water, sound, night sky and the new terrains using Artecs program to make realistic terrains similar to MS Flight Simulator. My top two would be clouds and object detail.
I really want to play VR. Just cant force myself to by the hardware yet. I would bet, if I had vR, that would be my favorite.

I have to agree with the clouds they are a nice touch and have used them to my advantage to hide bombers from fighters in pursuit

Well it points out one thing... not one GV'er had any thing to say that was good about AH III.......

Water Chestnuts wrapped in bacon and scotch.

I wish I could. They were at two family Christmas gatherings. I had some with scotch with the ones I brought home. I asked my wife to get the recipe and make some so I can take pics of them next to scotch.

No one can answer what brings new players to the game.
Things I like about the AHIII over AHII
1) the realistic look of the new terains
2) the new clouds are awesome
3) The new V-Base layouts.
4) the battle ship group
5) The New format for the DA
6) the new Trees and plants when driving a GV.
7) the new plane explosions.
