Too often, we lose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when
someone annoys you it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it
only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm, grasp the joystick button,
and shoot the sucker down!

Post by: YourDead on April 21, 2000, 10:23:00 AM: Hehe, I dont have an account to play so I'm kinda stuck in offline mode and H2H. Bombing empty airfields gets boring, fast.

Post by: Kieren on April 21, 2000, 10:35:00 AM: Which is why you would need a paying account. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I am not against AI drones, but there are too many features that need to be put in front of it, I think the energy is better concentrated elsewhere.

Further, you can get human assistance by getting the free account and joing an H2H session. I'm sure there are those that would enjoy attacking your bomber while you attack a target. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Post by: Ripsnort on April 21, 2000, 10:36:00 AM: You do know about the 8-player head to head, right? Yes, you do have to register, but its free.
Title: Drones
Post by: YourDead on April 21, 2000, 01:47:00 PM: But where can I find H2H servers?

I remember a while back when the game was on beta that drones were going to be implemented in the future.

Post by: Ghosth on April 21, 2000, 01:50:00 PM: Yourdead,

Get the free acct, click on H2H. input username & password. It will then show you a list of active H2H sessions. Join whatever one you like. Or Host one, and yours will show up in the list for others to join.

It's simple, it's easy.

GO FOR IT.

Ps, get a job & get online, it's the ONLY way to fly!

Post by: Saintaw on April 21, 2000, 01:52:00 PM: Head to Head means that you communicate imediately with another player's system, so, the Host will be the "server" ...

That is, if my understanding is correct.

Post by: YourDead on April 21, 2000, 01:52:00 PM: Oh man!! Thanks!!

I can only play this game for free cuz I'm only 16 and ADSL already costs $50 a month so I dont think my parents will want to pay $30 a month for a game (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)

Post by: YourDead on April 21, 2000, 03:29:00 PM: I meant drones for offline practice
Title: Drones
Post by: Sunchaser on April 21, 2000, 04:10:00 PM: I seem to remember HTC mentioning early on that offline drones would be added but silence on that possibility since.

I hope they do it, I know that some look on this as giving away the store but I think if it works well it will sell online accounts.

When did they put this thing in here and WTF is it for?
