it is. frb is no icons, no hud, advanced engine management, very very little difference in the flight model from arcade.

oh and you're still flying aircraft that didn't actually see service, sometimes against aircraft that were never flown in combat with the country they represent.

Spot on.

I've always wondered what HTC stance on their competition is? Do they not care? Are they scrambling to find a way to expand AH? Or what?

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

I seriously doubt HTC wants 3 million customers (I also think it's an exaggeration on WThunder's part. There's a huge difference in 3 million free downloads and 3 million customers).

probably closer to 250,000 actual active players...3 million registered to spam the forums with nonsense.

Either way, it's a number AH can only dream of having.

I can't count the number of el-cheapo family laptops I've seen where the pre-teen kid has downloaded some both CPU and GPU demanding game just because it looks fancy and their friends do the same. None of them usually see anything more than a slide show, but they count as registered downloaders. Unless they have stolen their mom's credit card info, they aren't paying customers.

I'm seeing 30-40,000 players online at any one time in my time zone. To support that number every player on average has to play two hours a week to equal about 3 million players total. It doesn't sound unreasonable.

HTC can't compete directly in scale; if they want to they have to expand enormously. I think they have to find a niche that doesn't compete directly, like quality and realism for example. Gaijin is the biggest independent game developer in Russia with hundreds of employees (and cheaper labor).
