I quit trying to please everyone, cuz it ain't gonna happen. The more I try, the worse it is.
I just gotta sit back, and realize, we here at HTC have a master plan, and we are working toward that goal. I also gotta realize, that you may not know our master plan, and therefore not understand why we do what we do when we do it, why we add this plane, or not add that plane at a certain time. It may not make sense to you at the time, or you may think it's a waste of our time. But these are all pieces to a puzzle, our puzzle, and we're putting it together how we see fit. When we finish that puzzle, and you see the big picture, you will understand. Or maybe you won't. That's the great thing about this planet, there are tons of people with great ideas, and tons of different ways to do them, and it's kinda fun to sit back and see how the world works, and think to yourself, man, I woulda never thought of that.
So, I'm gonna quit this post, finish my plane, and go home at 5, grab a beer, and watch the grass grow, and I'll see you kids tomorrow.
-
You could never please me Nate...wrong sex.
-
I'd feel the same way if I were busting my bellybutton to crank out a lot of planes, only to have to some ignoramous wave off my efforts as "a waste of time".
Nate, first beer is on me at the con. The CM's appreciate all you've done for us in this release.
-
Whew....good. Next thing you know you'd be giving us a freakin P-61, and who needs that??
;)

Most positive part in this post is beer ;)

Who was the guy whining that he wasn't getting bi-planes?
-
Natedog,

Good riddance!

Yes, YESsssss, the Leather Thong is strong with this one!!!!

"Use the KY force, Nate, use the KY force!"
i thought thats why you use KY so you dont have to force it
:confused:

Nate you really can't listen to this bunch of whiners. Myself included, however I for one am VERY happy to see the lowly Val coming at last to AH.
Keep up the good work, have you tried earplugs?

....paging Rude... :D

It took me years to get him to cry, stop trying to make him feel better.

Rule #1 of running an online game:
If you do it. They will whine.
BTW, you know the whining is getting out of hand when the devs join in. :D
-
Nate,
Where is my Boomer Schooner?

i was amazed when i got here how responsive the staff were to trying to meeting player demands coming from a RPG where while they do get to some demands it takes waaay longer and alot more begging time i'm talking upwards of 8 months sometimes over a year :rolleyes: they simply go about doing their "bizniz" and let ya know when a new feature is close to release. then when the release date is upon us they say something like "due to unforseen bugs we'll have to set back the release date"
i just gotta say thanks to natedog and superfly for giving us updates to and releasing new planes so quickly.
-
Hey Nate.......blow it off. These whiners represent perhaps 1-2% of the entire community. It ain't no thing.
Cyas!

Rude Rude Rude...if a dog walked up and bit you in the crotch, would you notice? Nate is obviously trying to get the Whine of the Week award. :) I'll bet he's got a beer bet with Super on this one.
-
Nate, u panzy....
you're not my big daddy any more :(
-
I believe he's slightly torqued over the matter...could be wrong. I do know this though...if I owned HTC, the arena population upon login would be lower for sure.
Hope your right Rip:)
Btw....authentic whining only, please.

"Gee HT, whadda ya wanna do tonight?"
"Same thing we do every night Nate, try to take over the world."

Well as somebody in another sim far away used to say: "If the players stop whining, you've got it wrong!" ;)

Rude:
I think he (Natedog) oughta get the WWA just for originality; it certainly got a lot of attention.
Who (among the whiners) woulda thought that their incessant squeaking and complaining would even elicit a response from anyone but themselves?
Well, on second thought, it is actually more like an excellent bait.
A possible danger though in Natedog's post could be that they would think they actually have some juice :(
This thing has many possibilities:)

WHINER!!!

I like all the new planes and look forward to flying them.
-
"Flightsim Customer Burnout" (FCB) is not pretty and has no easy cure. I recommend a case of Coors and two days at home.
If you don't show any improvment by then call me and I'll prescribe some 'serious' medicine.
(BTW, there are people playing this game that couldn't have fun in a French potato House. "You mean I have to move my hips ?")
-
New planes!!!, I haven't tried all the planes that are here now!!, you guys(at HT) really know how to take care of your customers!!.
As for the whiners---Hahahaha ROFLMAO!!!!, I bet you all go through life griping about what you don't have, instead of appreciating the things that you do have.
This is one of the greatest online flight sims on the market, and the fact that it is continually supported and updated makes it even better.
just my two cents!

Who said Natedoggy could stop working long enough to post, particularly when it's not a screenshot. Quit yer whining and get back to work. And be sure to put out a Mustang III, or whatever you're doing is pretty pointless and unappreciated.

-MZ- that wasn't Cooper. He just borrowed the phrase. A lot. In the end. It would have been better if he had no? :) And Flos, good sound byte where did that stategery get them? ;)

Nate:
How about I buy ya tequila at the con until you are drunk then we use your admin privileges to screw with various players' accounts and handles? You will feel a lot better afterwards. I guarantee it.

Nate, what happened to you? I used to shot you down many times, using HO, b&z, sneak 6, and you never whined. Many time you kept flying without wings, tail, and all in fire, and still never answered when I called you a cheating dweeb, and just kept flying. So I do not understand this whine; and though I greatly apreciate posts with word "beer" in them, this one is UGLY.
Oh, forgot to mention, I used to shot you down offline :D

Yeah, well... they reckoned without EA.com... :(
-
I don't have any interest in scenarios or the CT or any "allied vs axis" idea. Most people don't attend these events or arenas.
as such, the val and several of the other early war planes are of very little value to me. I don't know what the big picture is but am only interested in the parts that affect the main arena where I hang out.
again...I would like to think that HTC is not wasting all this time on planes that5 can't/won't be used in the main where all the players are. I certainly hope that they have an idea for letting these planes into the main... with some sort of parity.

OK Westy. Where you been?

The ultimate revenge on the whiners:
Make the Val uber as all get out for 1 week. Faster than a Lala, guns like a Chog, Turns like a Zeke...you get the picture. Then when all the whiners start dieing at the hands of this "crappy plane" and they start to use the sucker.....change it back. Muahahahahahahahaha :D

Y`all know, there is a reason to why we called them The Gods, and when they are in the arena, we say they are in Godmode, (Blue text back there in brand W)
HTC, is the Gods and they have a plan, so whom are we , infidels, to believe that we can have something to say in this matter ?
First there was nothing, then Hitech, created the Arena, but the arena where dark.
Above the arena, he created a sky.
Then he, Hitech the god, created a light in the sky, and called it THE SUN.
The sun lighted up the arena, and Hitech saw that this was a good thing.
So he contacted Natedog, superfly, pyro, ronni and yankee, he told them other gods: "TODAY I SHALL CREATE MAN; SO MAN CAN SEE THE GREATNESS OF THE ARENA, FOR MAN TO SEE THE ARENA YOU MUST MAKE THEM AEROPLANES; SO THEY CAN VIEW MY GREATNESS FROM THE SKY"
By an accident the gods put guns in the planes, and man discovered the joy of shooting other man out of the sky, so he could view the greatness alone.
To help this out, the gods made some more planes with even bigger guns, so man could revenge himself, and to this day, this still is going on, and I for one never ever hope it stops :D
Keep up with your great work HTC, and go for your masterplan, for after all, you are Gods in a real way, you have created a Real virtual world,out of nothing, where thousands of people spend days, weeks, months and some like me, years in.
(Please ignore my poor English, HTC greated me to fly, not to speak\write;))

What is the point of having a million "historically accurate" planes if 4 or 5 outclass the rest and are the only thing most people fly?

It was a sort of High pitched whining........

Hey Nate?? What was that plane you finished before you went home to watch the grass grow and get beered up? :)
-
Give em hell Nate :)
i realise that everyone has an opinion and we all want different things,but look at it this way,if you don't like it,go cut some code yourself,you are most welcome to go make a game of your own,and if it's a success,you can charge some money too...besides,have HTC ever let us down?
answer me dat :)

:D

NATEDOG I to would like to see other planes added. But I find plenty of aircraft in the current version to keep me happy. I look at any new addition as bonus no matter whether I choose to fly it or not! :D Sooner or later we will have all aircraft used in WWII if we live long enough to see the game to continue to evolve. Keep up the GREAT work. No doubt you have aircraft in developement that alot of the whiners hope to see. All I have to say is be patient, THE GAME ROX no matter what planes are in the inventory! I think alot of guys complain just to hear there own voice, our see there text! I'll never ask for the planes I wish to see because there are plenty that I currently enjoy in AH. As the game grows the inventory grows. But lets see something to use those vehicle perks on! :) Anyway keep up the GREAT work!

Nate,
If you want to have the last laugh on the whiners just give them the plane they want.
But pork it!
I mean they're gonna whine ANYWAY! At least this way, they'll have a legitimate reason for it!
