It has been 8 years ...
« on: November 08, 2022, 05:36:58 PM »

Wondering how things are after 8 years?  many changes in game? UI? 

Anyone around who still remembers me?  (keep it nice, lol)

Compared to 8 years ago:

- new version with improved graphics
- some changes to features and gui (e.g. magic inflight radar, GV sector counters) and some minor gameplay changes, core game still the same
- no new planes or GV
- player numbers only 1/3rd compared to 8 years ago.

Well only thing that's really changed that I know of is I showed up and started trying to take on everybody I see in a Mossy lol. Not doing too badly either, averaging a 2/1 K/D ratio, so if anyone ever wants to wing up in Mossies.....

Other than that, I don't really know what's different.  :airplane:

VR is THE closest to real world immersion that currently exsists.  That’s it.

That alone is huge for most of us

There is also the way HT implements icons as I find it superior to the icons in either il2 or dcs..

VR in AH is the only game I find time for these days

and Palmer Luckey just took it a step further!

On November 6th, 2022—that significant date in Sword Art Online—Luckey claims he made a headset capable of killing its user via three explosive charges that could be triggered if the player dies in virtual reality.
