I don't get it

Just because you may think that customer #s have decreased, stayed stagnant or whatever is due to the fact that we have an American, Canadian or whatever is a load of bull.

Edit: I meant to say arrogant American/Canadian there

I think HT changed the dar settings because he was bored with the run-of-the-mill diatribe on the bbs here. Mayhap in another month or so he can perk the spit6, or la7, or somethin....

UpTown,

If you took 2 advill for one of my post,
then how much advill did you take for vulgar post amplitude!

I do believe Vulgar has just set a record for the longest and most straw men malarkey on this bbs.

HiTech

He cheated ... he copy/pasted 3 paragraphs twice ...

[SlapShot]

The apparent current player base is so small that revenue is barely enough to keep AH running. If there was more revenue more people could be hired and progress rate improved. Who is at fault for this, HiTechCreations, or the players?  Both are at fault.

  ... so you are privy to HTC's "books" and server data ?

Did Dale put his plane on craigslist for sale ?

Did you see Pyro or Skuzzy in the grocery checkout using food stamps ?

Anyone who has been here as long as I have (or longer) would surely realize (even without server stats) that the subscription base has grown significantly since I joined this circus.

I remember the night that we broke the 200 online players barrier ... pffft ... you get more than that in LW Blue on any week night.

Vulgar,  there are several repeated paragraphs in the Great Wall of Text.  Not sure why.

Anyways, after reading through it…

But there are consistently a number that do nothing but offend people. Usually these same offensive people are the ones stirring things up the most.

Here in the Forums, yes, there is a harsh crowd.  In game?  The same flamers are pretty decent fellows in the game.  Even back in my flame warrior days, my Forum enemies turned out to be good chess piece countrymen.

I keep channel 200 turned off, so, personally, I do not see much “jerk” behavior online.

Perhaps some of the existing players who speak other languages could come up with some suggestions as to how to start helping out non-English players

Can’t help you.  When I speak Spanish, I sound like Frankenstein. 

“Me want beer. Beer good freeze.”

Bottom line is that every month, you are going to ask yourself, is this game worth $15 a month or not.

Heck, I am even willing to pay Texas state sales tax.

Seems perfect in any language.

I can order a beer and hooker in 4 languages.

I was looking for the Cliff notes.

It feels like the DA lake everywhere. Now its good for someone who is a decent pilot but for those who are newbs its rough. I have never ran into so many baby seals before these changes.

The changes promote total destruction of the base just get to 30k and destroy all hangers. This is the way it is going to be done now still no fight unless you want to climb up to chalenge range.

As baldeagle alluded to the fact noes promoted fights, in a way. Maybe not the people actually doing noes but for the defense afterward. People up now and are seen coming off the runway its no

different than the DA. Some people play this game for different reasons than just straight furball/1v1. I have always said noes were the first place I "trained" I learned a lot from them (as a brand new flight sim player). I hate to see the changes it was not necessary.
 

Was my expeirience that NOEs were no sure thing. Had some great fights with just a very few and occassionally just one great defender that thwarted a base
takeover.

Also agree with Kilo that NOE's with your squadmates is one of the few times that newbies can experience a 'win'. AH is very tough on newbies to flight sims.

And all respect to Hitech, but from what point of reference are you making these decisions? As a game designer or a player? <ducks>
I'm talking about game balance regarding ole time great sticks, pure sim newbies and folks in the middle.

I don't like the new radar settings...They seem unrealistic...

You're right. They are a bit unrealistic.

Real WW2 radar could reach out and detect aircraft over 100 miles away, give altitude and speed of the targets.

I'm sure you'd love the radar in the game to reach out four or five sectors (one sector is only 25 miles across) and give away your altitude and speed.

The only thing "unrealistic" is that the in game radar is much weaker than it was in real life. But I'm sure HTC could ramp it up a bit more for those of you that want it to be more realistic.
