Although It's Been Said
« on: December 08, 1999, 02:36:00 AM »
I don't recall ever thanking HTC for allowing me to take advantage of their Beta.  I want you folks at HTC to know that I really appreciate your efforts and for allowing me to particapate.  I certainly have enjoyed your game and have not really given anything back in return.

One day I hope to be a satisfied paying customer.  For now I must be satisfied with being a "Certified squeaking and Complaining Dweebiot".  

For myself, when I play and when it gets really intense, I am not sitting at home at my computer.  I am flying and I am there.  I suspect that you have succeeded in your goal at least for myself.    

I can compare how I feel, as it is very much like reading a good book.  My eyes read the words, but I become the story.  I have stepped into the mirror and became my fantasy.

Thanks HTC!  

Oh and Merry Christmas Everyone!

Mino

Season greetings everyone!!!    Or as we say "Schöni Wiehnachtä mitenand!"  

I agree HTC is doing a great job with this sim here and I LOVE it even if it's still in beta. But, Mino, although we do not pay yet we have a great deal to give them also. We are testing their baby to the limit. That's what beta is for. I think our constructive critism & ideas will take AH beyond what it may be meant in its beginning. We should take care of our responsability and help HTC to make this simulation even better. There may be some whining going on, true - but even this less constructive form of critism will help to help developement. A team of designers, even if they are as brilliant as HTC   , cannot think of everything, so bring on all your thoughts. HTC may listen to them or not...  

I hardly can imagine what AH will be on final release!!!

Hehe Kirin,
I bet the US-guys will think this was German  
what Kanton are you from ?

Just to prevent misunderstandings: Bubi Hartmann and me would say : "frehliche Weihnachta ond a gsonds neis johr!"  
(regarding my flying, that seems to be about all we have in common  )

Hya eazy,

I live in Zürich but come from St.Gallen originally. What kind of Dialäkt has Bubi then? You want to say that he was Swiss? Didn't know that for sure...

BTW, where you're from? Und warum schriib i denn englisch mit dir?

Yes, thanks much to HTC. I've enjoyed every revision, and am even getting the hang of the gunnery!  

And yes, as an American I did think that was some stab at German (I read German reasonably well). Noticed some elements elements that weren't quite right.   Could still understand it though.

Hya Kirin,

NO ! he was not a Swiss guy, he was a Spätzles-Schwob like me, his fathers house Was in Weil im Schönbuch near Stuttgart. If he passed his house in his Karaja 1 at 300mph, course 190deg it would take him less than 5 mins to roar over my head

Umm, well I disagree Nate, things can only get better if you have a piss-poor product which cant get any worse...

You all have a pretty damned good product even though its still in beta and since it is so good as is, although there is still room to improve, there is alot of room to get worse! =)

I think what you wanted to say wa that things WILL only get better =)
