Title: Whats up?
Post by: FiLtH on July 28, 2003, 09:26:04 PM: Hi all...anything new?

WW2OL is where ive been and now they have screwed with the planes so they fly like bricks. I dont think CRS likes TnB much, so they seem to be forcing the BnZ upon us.

Well Im too old a dog to be taught boring tricks. Think Ive lost that "Lovin Feelin" in there. What is new here, or better, than there was 1 year ago, that may interest me? Frankly, just having something called a "dogfight" in a flight sim game would be enough, since WW2OL doesnt like it.

Post by: Flossy on July 29, 2003, 06:25:35 AM: Hi FiLtH! :) Well as others have said, AH2 is due out "in two weeks" :D - at least during this quarter, so some time before the end of September if it stays on schedule. I saw a preview at the Con and it looks very good!

Bombers are a little tricky now with the new bombsight, but there are some good tutorials around to help and after a long spell of not really trying, I am now getting used to it a bit more and starting to hit stuff again.

Hope to catch you in the MA sometime! ;)

Post by: JB73 on July 29, 2003, 10:55:17 AM: The III/Jabostaffel (JB's) have become the most dominant squad in the arenas. we force all other pilots nearby to fly only Luftwaffe planes, and BnZ the SpitN1kLame7 tards to oblivion all night.

of coures there is and endless vulch on all knight / bishop fields because of this, and rooks always win every war.

generally every pilot in the community has come to the realization the german iron is totally uber, and can't be beat. the raw power and beauty of these fine luftwaffe machines captivates everyone. the only p38's or p51's you find are flown by ideastic n00b's and get spanked down everywhere. when you do actually come across a spitfire or n1k2j in the arena it generally runs for it's life because of all the german beasts relentlessly competing to kill it.

OHHHHHH ...how has[/I] the game changed.... not how i wish[/I] it had changed. reverse everything i said then.

:D

Post by: lazs2 on July 30, 2003, 07:54:02 AM: WWWII online still has that fat drunk lieing aussie who thinks that the LW won the war. He realizes that you can't have LW planes dominate if the other planes can turn tho so...
