 And AW is $10/mo. Why would I ever want to go "backwards" with either one?

Well, looks like these guys need to learn to add more polygons. Notice the cowlings are not round in either.

Now this is ARTWORK (notice nice round things) hehehe  ya goofs:

No, they will trounce on WB's crappy FM, the MAIN reason I gave them the boot. Which is all you will have at first, is WB3 with old WB FM, terrible gunnery, and the worst connects in any online game. You can have it all to yerselves

First off, its not out!  Second, AH will pick up new customers when 70% of current WB'ers will find out in order to run WB3 with a decent Frame Rate (15 or above) they will have to not only upgrade their CPU, but their Video card as well...also, from what I'm hearing, its a graphics update only, so where does that leave WB3?  WB2 with pretty graphics where you can't get a decent FR.
Question: Is WB3 going to be flat rate?

 I will try out WB3, most here will...and  if WB3 is all its cracked up to be, I'll be in both sims (if its flatrate)

Why don't you use your AGW handle, what are you frightened about?

Fellows, let's try to show the class we would want to see if we were there.

Example:
Six-pk, thanks for the information. It is old news by now, but thanks nonetheless.

See, no personal slam necessary! (of course, it should be in the OT forum)

Wook at the cute wittle propeller on the Spitfire.  Its so such a cute wittle wiggams.

The proportions are all off, it looks VERY cartoonish.  Looks like they'll be chopping frame rates for bad graphics.

hehe I don't know wether to laugh at this guy or feel sorry for him. MG that u? hehe what kind of frame rate you gonna get with those "round" cowlings?  Don't you know there is no such thing as "round" in our hobby?  every curved surface is made up of line segments, or straight polygons. But I guess with that advanced gunnery system there's still alot of CPU cycles to draw those "round" cowlings.  
 http://www.iencentral.com/warbirds/new_images/wb3art/f4u1d_4.html

 HMMMM looks like I see some straight lines in that cowling.  


 Now do yourself a favor son, go play your game and have a good time.  I think I'll go practice dodging in and out of clouds, then I'm going to practice my fuel management and see how far I can go on 1 tank of gas, what do you guys think should I take a drop tank? .  Hmmm I think I'll do this at Luzon, or wait maybe I should go to Tunis.  Then I think I'll work on some new convergences. 1 bank of cannons at say 250 and the other at about 325, should I bring the cowl guns down to 200 yrds or out to 400?  hmm should 1 bank of cannon be 30mm? Oh that reminds me of that b26 I killed the other day w/ 2 30mm shells, ok ok I only needed the 1 but it looked so cool seeing that v-stab falling off I had to put another into it. Unfortunately I got to close to him and my left wing hit his right wing, we both spiraled down missing 1 wing.


 yeah WB rules dude!

Yep, probably the best  feature in AH, 3D cockpit, rumor is that WB3 may have the same feature since its very successful here.

Oh, do you  think that pilots ever loosened the straps just alittle so they have about a 6" advantage of twisting around for a rear six view? Naaaa!
