This Game Dies Because

[lunaticfringe]

Kilroy the tree hugger, complaining about losing undefended bases, the bish are grand champions at that.

sorry Kilroy you lose again

[lunaticfringe]

just because you use a storch to look for gv's doesn't mean you gonna find it. with engine off sitting tight against a tree like Kilroy does almost never find-and if you fly too low you get main-gunned to death.

By my math that's 12,400 a month.

Has that changed?

I'm not nitpicking the numbers, in any case, as the point was simply that there are lots of potential customers out there.


If it wasn't that quote it may have been another, but it will definitely do.   

As I said I never stated AH gets 10's of thousand a month. The quote you posted was simply what happened during the steam launch. I stated past 100 days. nothing to do with normal monthly trials.

And most people would take "I never stated this" by looking how they may have miss understood a post of mine, not be argumentative by trying to prove that's I said AH gets 10's of thousands a month.

And also trying to insinuate there may have been another time I posted it.

I see.  Well, then I was under an incorrect impression.

I think Hitech is doing a good job.

The Steam reviews I have read (and posted some time ago) have the same theme.

Paraphrasing a lot of them here:

I got into the game.....the screen went red...it went black....then I spiraled into the ground.   No mater what I did....I crashed.  Crappy game...don't play.

      Or

Graphics are terrible....crappy game don't play.

     Or

It cost's money to play....crappy game don't play.

     Or

     I up...I get destroyed...I up...I get destroyed....I quit.


  etc etc etc.


So I think a LOT of the "new" players coming in are looking for more "arcade", less realism and easy-mode flying.  If they don't become an Ace on their first flight....they quit.

This is just what I got from reading the steam reviews on AHIII.  https://steamcommunity.com/app/651090/reviews/?browsefilter=toprated&snr=1_5_100010_&p=1

It's such a shame because most of the reviews are absolute garbage. Even the people comments about enjoying the game are missing so much. I never see any comments about special events like FSO and snapshots. Most of the reviews are by people who don't have a clue about the game.

I'm pretty sure that a lot of those reviews are from previous players that have either been banned from AHIII or butthurt for some reason.

There were a few that said as much or were suspicious.  Most of them looked fairly legit to me.  My personal favorite was the guy that complained about getting disoriented and almost falling over while trying to play standing up with his Vive.

Agreed... especially under the stress he must (I assume) he is experiencing

[TheBug]

Can we vote on the "considering"?   

[alpini13]

sounds like somebody needs the gift of CHEESE...to go with all that whine....

"This Game Dies Because" people do not fly WWI. That can change tonight at 11 PM ET! Come fly in SEA 1 and bring your scarf.

I know that I was a bomber boy only for about 3-4 months when I first started the game because since everyone has been playing the game so long, I'd get smoked again and again and again when trying to dogfight. Only now I'm getting okay at it, with like a 1:2 K:D ratio.

If there was more noob friendly nights and coaching and such, that'd be cool. I remember in Aces High 2 there was just a pure furball server meant for noobs  (I think).

Anyways, Oh Man I havent posted on a old school forum for a while.
