Actually when i went over for the AH vs WB dual ... it was a two weeks free with out having to use a CC ... I wouldnt of done it if they wanted a CC # ... but they did require a payed for Email addy ... hotmail / yahell addys wouldnt work ....

After my trial was done though they spammed the hell outta my email ... i ended up blocking there addy finally .

I have nothing against the players.. I just hate the upper management over there ... and I wont let that mafia have any of my hard earned $$$

For the IJ fans...  WBIII models the following:

Fighters:
Ki-43 IIb
Ki-44 IIc (new!)
Ki-61b
Ki-61c (new!) (not to be confused with the 61d, AKA Ki-61-KAIc)
Ki-84 1a
A6M2
A6M3
A6M5

Bombers:
D3A1
B5N2
G4M1
G4M2

Rumored to be in production (2 weeks away):
Ki-27
Ki-61-1d (AKA Ki-61 KAIc)
J2M2 (saw a screenshot of this one, no idea how far along FM is.)
J2M3
N1K1J
G4M3

Not a bad selection for a typically under-represented IJ planeset. So, if all the dedicated AH IJ pilots tried out WBIII, there'd be 3 or 4 new WBIII pilots. :D

Not wishing to turn this into a RPS discussion, but I like an RPS.

Otherwise, all you'd see are spits, ponies, 190s... etc.  I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. :)

An RPS gives early war planes a time frame for them to be competitive. Just ask lazs!

All MHO.

Besides, the Ki-84 and Ki-43 are available in WBIII far more than they are available in AH. So there. :p

All the planes available half the time or half the planes available all the time.

It's hard to brag on planes that are most likely not available.

The part I like is the "special access to the developers" part. Just why the hell does someone need "special access"? Why can't all subscribers to a game have access to the development team like every other online flight sim?

I was about to go try it again this month with all the time off that I have coming up but I think my time will be better spent playing AH and AH2 (testing) new things than getting ticked off about WB3. Good luck WB I hope that you are able to resurrect something out of the fires that were built beneath your home by your management. I could post on the WB3 board but I don't want to go through the time of looking for my password and old user name (I think its ljk_reschke).

Mini D, I don't really care to get into a silly debate on the merits of an RPS system, or WB vs AH.

If you are an IJ fan, then you'll appreciate some of the planes that WB has to offer.

If not, then it really makes no difference what IJ planes are available, eh? :)

And even if the Ki-84 was only available 1 day out of the entire year in WB, that's still one day more than AH! :cool:

It's access to CLOSED betas not the open versions. Everyone is allowed access to the open beta.

I know you don't.  But, you did bring it up.  You can't present one side without the other as much as you'd like to say you should be able to.

If you are an IJ fan, you might be equally as frustrated during a european matchup eh?

Like I said... can't have one without the other.  You have 1 more fighter and 2 more variants with the same number of bombers and 1 more variant.  Yet... they're only available half of the time at best.

Once again... claim it doesn't matter all you want while trying to remember you started listing game features in a thread about price.  It's only fair that the other side is presented.

Yeah, I had a lifetime 9.99 account with HTC-shame it wasn't worth even that to me, but don't feel like it is a slam, because my free WBIII account isn't worth playing to me, either.  I'll pay my, whatever it is, WWIIOL account till I am tired of it, and then.....
