Well, I got online and tried the game. People were nice, but gameplay was difficult/problematic.
I know some people really get defensive and flamable when someone points out dislikes of their favorite game, so I'll ask first:
Are you interested in hearing why a first timer probably won't pick up the game for pay?

If you want to give input to HTC try the Gameplay/Feedback Forum. If you want to start a flame war, do what you're doing. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
I wouldn't judge the game after one night. There are a lot of things to learn. If you need help with anything let me know.

I didn't like the cockpit-shaking effect either until after about a week of flying. Now I can't fly without it.
Yes the control surfaces are sensitive. Be sure to scale down your joystick settings. Some planes are easier to fly than otehrs because they are less sensitive to input. That's realism. Not everyone can deal with it.

Thank goodness I didn't actually say anything. That would have been a pile of doo to step in.
To the gameplay/feedback forum I may go. (Didn't notice there was one till you mentioned it.)
Sorry.

Post whatever you want. Who cares if people flame you? I sure wouldn't care.
You'll get the most reasonable responses with some constructive criticism. Flames don't happen for no reason at all; I've seen people get flames for making outrageous statements based on feelings rather than fact.
Believe it or not, there *is* a difference between saying
"Aces High is not for me because it's too difficult"
and
"Aces High SUCKS"

Actually here would have been a good place to discuss his thoughts. Gameplay is for input on the game/sim itself.
Whats the problem(s) Bullgrit?

Bullgrit, I was kidding a little, sorry if I scared you off.

Heyas!
There is a learning curve here, and I would not quit until you gave it a fair shake.
Make up your own mind, but give it more than a night...use the full two weeks and ask for assistance from me anytime (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Get yourself a trainer in TA, and ask him to help you. Ask some veterans in MA to let you .join them in fly, and you will see this game from the different point. Or not. At least you will know more, than now. Several hours of expirience is interesting, but you saw 1% of what this game offers.

Raiders will self destruct this year, just like they did last year.
Kansas City Chiefs will kick thier prettythang in their own house and pay them back for last year and a couple of weeks ago as well.
We've finally figured out who we are as a team as evidenced against the RAMS.
Raider punks are goin down...we own you guys and you know it (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) Check out your record against us the last twenty games.

All I have to say to Chiefs fans is REFER TO THE SCOREBOARD (http://superbowl.raiders.com/meta/autumn_wind.ram). Wake me next time you guys win a game against the Raiders.
PS I like teams that have won a Superbowl in my lifetime. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
PPS Hot tip for this weekend's betting: Seattle 17 Kansas City 7

Hi Bullgrid i was behind u yesterday (that p38 without ammo) (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) u flew very well for one at his first day . Have to remember mine i was sissy spitfire and got shotdown many times i hated everything like FM itwas in the last weeks off 1.02 . U took a FW so u have guts like i said a bit more aggresive and u will kill .
My first day was much worser (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Ltr!

bullgritt,
keep at it mate!, I began in beta testing and it was my first online flightsim id played.Started to learn how to manage energy
and to know what each plane does and use its qualities to your advantage etc...i never played a flightsim like that before..was always point shoot loop etc..not really fighting (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Give it a while and this game rewards in droves! You'll learn to fly a whole new way and enjoy it im sure.give it more of a chance to grow on you.

Hiyas bullgrit, I've been at this for about 8 months and i,m finally feeling average. It's a great feeling when everything starts clicking. The only way to learn is pay attention when someone shoots your but off. Fly bish for awhile, no shortage of excitement.<S>

Bullgrit welcome aboard! I know how you feel being new. You feel like a target right now, but with patience,and experience you'll improve. I flew air warrior for 6 years, warbirds for about a month. When I came here a few short months ago the learning started all over again. It's worth giving it more then one day. If I can be of some help, don't hesitate to ask. Remember, first learn to fly wihtout killing yourself, then worry about killing someone else (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
