It's amazing how many whines are from players about changes. So many whines about filling out the WWII plane set.
If you compare the number of kills in the LW arena for September the most successful aircraft was the P-51D, the least the P-40B. The P-40B had less that 1/2 of 1% the success of the P-51D. Yes I know the reason that it is not as successful so that dog won't hunt. I question the reasoning of the people that demand (and they do demand) filling out the plane set of every plane that flew in WWII before HTC moves on to anything else. Did these guys whine about adding vehicles too?
We've had an real WWII Ace slandered in these forums without any documented proof during the arguements about adding WWI aircraft, folks crying about having vox in WWI planes and various and sundry things.
How many of these people really took the time to think about what is good for the continued growth of this game and how many are just saying I want what I want and I want it now? It doesn't add to gameplay, it doesn't bring in customers, but it makes me happy and pffffffft to the rest of you. Same ones that say I don't care that it costs the same to add an aircraft that won't get flown outside of scenarios as it does to do one that may bring in more people and keep this game growing?

What I care about is growth for Aces High Events Community. So much fun and education is created by so many individuals in the AH Events community, that I respect and appreciate it immensely. Due to this huge appreciation, I always wish for more attention from HTC to the AH Events Community through the act of adding more planes. If I vote/voice for more planes that add more support to events, rather than to the MA, so be it. That's my one and only vote. If other players feel the same way, they can do the same.
The AH events community is EXTREMELY appreciative to HTC. The AH Events community will be appreciative to the new WWI planes and will include WWI events as soon as possible.
My concern is that resources will be diverted away from increasing the WWII planeset. Many of us are patient with the few planes that are added each year. After 10 years of AH, the WWII planeset is still FAR from complete and requires many of us to use our imagination to make events work. We are patient, but ignoring us would make us sad. Again, we are very appreciate of what we have, and maintain high hopes that HTC continues to work hard to add to the WII planeset.
AH Events are where I find the maximum entertainment, education and immersion! This events community does so much for others, they are already very appreciative, respectful and grateful for HTC.
