Loose Cannons - and the future of Aces High
« Reply #555 on: April 08, 2006, 02:36:03 AM »
So let me get this straight...

If I want to up in a B17 (which has been re-modeled beautifully) and bomb a field's hangars, I can. HTC modeled the bombs, the damage, the altititude, the guns, the planes, the formation, the coad and the FM of the bombers to do what they are supposed to do.

Now, I can do whatever the heck I want. I can up in a B5N and fly from one end to another. Who cares? No one. Its my 14.95 that I send to HTC to allow me to do this.

Now if I bomb a FH, or GV Hangar, or even de-ack or pork fuel and ord...I'm ruining someone's game? What if thats what I like doing? What if I consider being shot down halfway to target because someone in a Niki decided to pass up a kill on a P-51 and go after my bombers ruining my game?

I don't mind doing a little bit of both. I dont mind furballing, high-alt escorts, bomb runs, GV attacks, cherry-picking, HO'ing, vulching, negative-G manuevers, flying a Hurri-1, breaking off a fight to shoot down a C47...I don't mind doing that at all because HTC allows me to do it in the game because it is in the game and as long as I'm paying, I have every right to do that.

If X was not meant to be in the game, then X would have been removed. Do you see where I'm going?


((BTW, the first time I heard of DoK was when I was playing AW on AOL and visited a webpage that had Dok Gonzo on the side of a P-51))

I see by your sheets you only very, very rarely fly fighters and when you do you are next to useless in one. Do you own a joystick? If you like I can take you to the training arena a few evenings a week and show you how to fight, maybe that is why you get so bored with the game so easily. I'd love to open up fightering to you as an alternate mode of play to toolshedding, maybe that will heighten your enjoyment of the game and make you want to play more...Send me a PM, I'd love to help ya...

Not to defend him, but Dok (thats with a K not a C) was one of the BEST sticks in AW.  And trust me, this was the golden age of flight sims when you PAID $6.00 an hour to play.  It definately cut down on the riff raff.

Course what do I know, I haven't been around much either :rolleyes:

AW4W on AOL  did not occur until the mid 90s.

Still missing the point people.  There is a small number of them and they are ruining it for a majority.  How can I enjoy my $15 if I want to furball and every furball is getting killed by a small majority of buff hoarding furball killing dweebs.  My enjoyment is furballing but every furball on rooks is killed by the LCA porking every FH and BH.

So in end I dont get to enjoy myself and they think its so fun to ruin the furballer's fun.

You say people should do whatever they want as it is their $15 but how can furballs do what they want if the buff hoarding porking dweebs come in and ruin the furballer's fun?

Too many nights when I was rook and the LCA came to be that every furball was getting killed.  I stayed for about a month or so when they came to be and too many nights was I not able to find a furball.  Every furball died within 5 minutes.  While LCA were out porking FHs everywhere, I said screw it and wentk knights for many nights just hunting out LCA in jets.  Now im staying knights just so I can have my furballs.

NOOOB! STFU! When you get some time in this game, then your opinion still won't mean HALF of what my slightest, meaningless thought is! Besides, this is MY game, I just let HT create, market, and operate it!

Get out of my sandbox, leave my toys alone! :cry

Well he sure went downhill fast then, all that time toolshedding must have atrophied his brain, muscles and reflexes... ;)

This thread is kind of moot now. Since half the good fighter jocks left Rooks to enjoy furballs on Knights the LCA has done nothing but get stomped into the ground. Without the overwhelming Rook numbers and the good fighter jocks inadvertantly running interference for their toolshedding escapades they've been a non-factor...Stick a fork in it..This thread and the LCA are done....

The thread may be done, but your words in it will haunt you for the rest of your days.

Yes, well, having to endure such an incessant stream of lies and outright stoopidliness from Zazen gave me a bad tummy ache.

It amazes me that an argument on the internet can make one person "hate" another.

Having seen what hate does in the real world, why would anyone let themselves get so worked up by cartoon airplanes and BBS text threads that they'd let hate or bitterness loose in their own innards?

Both of you guys -- For crying :cry out loud...if you dont like  what the other dude has to say, put him on your ignore list and disregard his posts! If he's really that worthless, why do you even bother fighting him?


sheesh....we're supposed to be AH's grownups!
