    We veteran players thank you for that. It has to be frustating for you guys getting blown up in your p-40s all the time by us, while on the otherhand us vets find it very monotonous just blowing up p-40's all day long. The more good competion the merrier. If you are considering any other planes, the zero III is the best, and it is not included in the BoB. Remember to use cannons instead of rockets cause you can't dogfight with rockets and eveyone here knows how to get you if do anyway :) If you need any tips ever this is a good place to come and ask :)

    I did most of the missions with steps, that means If I get shot after eliminating the tanks I can choose to start again from the beginning or from the next saved checkpoint. Choose the last one, so you have killed the tanks and you get a new plane with full health again... I think I would never get it in one stoke to the end... Am I cheating now?

    I find myself getting increasingly bored and annoyed with this game. I'm not into the room system. If I create a room called "no noobs", it somehow fills instantly with P40's. I rarely find any vets, and the rooms don't stay open which makes it hard for them to find me either. My frag limit games still crash, and some of the maps have been increasingly jumpy. What's the deal SGN? SoG used to be a great game... As developers, how do you let the bugs and problems continue like this, update after update? It's not even like the updates fix the bugs. If anything, they keep getting worse.

    yes- it is.
    BoB is the best deal out there. Too bad for many of us vets with decked-out free versions, it's not quite worth the extra $$ for just a few planes, when we've already been collecting the better ones as they came out.
    I kinda wish SGN had made the extra planes available to those of us that purchased the BoB as a campaign (and all the other upgrades).

    Yes I saw it. I posted it on facebook again. I'm not the sugar type. I mean.. I tried it. But they just answer the questions they want. The don't communicate. After a while you get kind of.. mean. Maybe sugar is better.

    At least they gave him a answer. That's cool. But why didn't get this answer much earlier? It would be so easy... really.

    I deleted one post on facebook. I took some honey and posted SGNs answer.

    Maybe we can educate them to talk.;) Nice work, michael :)

    I had a fun encounter in my TA room. I was alone with a guy in a zeroIII. He was not very skilled, was named chase and I had no difficulies to get him down with my bf. Tokkotai entered. I stopped chasing chase, because Orion warned us in the forum, that he is very strong. And he really is. But he couldn't dominate me, because chase played my wingman. So Tokkotai had to fight us both. A little mean. But it was fun that chase and I could play together without killing each other without using words.

    Sorry Tokkotai... GG :p

    Hello, it's Michael here.

    You never know where SGN is coming from ... I really do enjoy the game and considering I have spent $10 for probably 50-100 hours of enjoyment, I am not unhappy at all even though I see room for improvement.

    This thread has raised some interesting questions to me ... I am guessing a game like this costs at least $50,000 to develop and from what I read here there might be about 50,000 people that have done the free download. Let's say 5,000 of them spend $10.00 for a few new planes and dogfights; that might cover the development costs but then you have to consider the ongoing maintenance costs, servers, etc. And at least one person who came up with the concept should be making a good living from this.

    Frankly I don't know how they can stay in business. Maybe with the next iPhone OS with advertising there will be more potential?

    Also, people complain about the cost ($10?); yet are willing to buy a new iPhone to get better performance?

    It's hard to put everything in perspective or really know where SGN is coming from. How much staff they have, or how many expenses. I own a manufacturing company and I know all of my employees are doing the work that two people did a few years ago. Hopefully SGN can be more communicative because I know most people here would really support them if they could continue to improve the game & keep the lines of communication open.

    You are right. We discussed this issue some weeks before and came to the same end. I support SoG by buying nearly everything they sell (except the real bad planes) all missions, I even got the multiplayer bundle, which I don't really need. I love the game. I support SGN. I was one of the first on facebook and told many players in this forum, that there is a facebook fan page. But if they tell us to ask questions, to come to their fan page and to their blog and we come and ask questions, then they should at least say: we don't know, but we try to find out. That would be ok for me.

    And it would be nice to find out what company they are, and where there are. How many people ... they could tell us. And we would adore them. :)

    I hope they get the money they need to support the servers... ;)

    I will open a TA room (FFA) limited to 99 minutes. I will play until the noobs are killed and the room gets empty. I hope the room stays for 99 without anybody in because I wont be in there for more than 10-15 minutes. So everybody can enter the room later and maybe two players can find each other for a game. After a while I will try to reenter the room to look if it still exists.

    Wow that was one great room. You guys were killing left and right. I was surprized that I did that well in the the room. Anyway try making a room call skilled it improves your chances of getting good players. See you in the skies.

    That was fun. First cooperative noob-clearing, and then a 3-way free-for-all. I felt lucky to get any kills at all against you guys.

    Just FYI, our visiting "Fly Fishing Trip=D" (very good!) was actually our old buddy "Habicht 1" (the German hawk), who sits in position 31, one ahead of me.

    Yes was much fun got some pics of it... :p

    the problem is that it gets filled with noobs first and then disappears from the list. The only way is to find one room name for all in this forum. Most of the forum members are skilled enough to have good games.

    Yeah I just looked at those pics you have some nice ones in there. I loved out team work when clearing the room. That could come handy in organized team games.

    I wish that Austin were able to post in this forum. We're pretty civil here and I'm sure he would not be mortally offended. Is it true that he has no way to communicate with us now that the Facebook page is gone, or something?

    Your up late in the cause of flying. It is almost 2 in the morning over there. Unless your a yank who likes to be Swiss.

    Also who thinks the p-51s speed should be upped? I was one of the fastest planes of WW2. Faster than that blasted but agile Zero.
