Yes, 17 years old, and 218 updates later. A lot has changed over the years and it continues to change. For example, we just released "match play" in the latest (V3.0 Patch 19) release.
this game takes real skill you actually trim your prop your fuel air mixture also if you have extra fuel on you it weighs you down makes your plane turn slower so yeah the flight model is 10 times better than War Thunder garbage..
WT literally simulates all of that... The FM in this game is garbage, it's arcade garbage. Not saying some people don't like it, but the simulator in WT is far more realistic, not as realistic as say DCS, but significantly more realistic than Aces High.
Hey devil, as a former player of Aces high, have you tried unchecking the enable stall limiter. This is in options preferences, and flight. then just make sure the box is empty. and for most sorties, only take 25% fuel. the game does a great drop replicating speed to weight ratios. also take the extra time to fly up to 8K-10K feet. most players in AH dosn;t use real tactics when playing the game. there are a few that do, and they are the best. maybe if you want to i can dust off my AH account and jump in and give you some pointers.
I am a long time player of Aces High.....like since the very first version. It's been a couple years that I have been away and got the sudden urge to check it out here. I am BLOWN AWAY by the graphic upgrades! Wow. Astonishing. I am coming back! WormBurn aka AirPhoto
I love your videos devildog they're pretty entertaining and thx you for you service i really appericate what you did for this country thank you so much. I'm actually going to the marine corps after high school. but thx you for everything you did
Actually you can bring up the clipboard, anytime, and review or make changes to the keyboard and controller mapping, which also shows all the commands and how they are currently mapped.
Now I finally understand why you made that "landing gear" call so late (I saw Phly's vid earlier)... I don't know the game and had no idea you were on the carrier by the time Phly was trying to land :D
the three bombers flying in perfect formation one is a pilot the others are drones. best part about flying bomber missions is you can have up to 10 people join you per plane. when I played this many years back I saw a three hundred bomber raid as I'm following the formation calling out it's location and bearing I just happened to looked behind me to an Airfield to witness about 40 me 163's lifting off the following battle was one of the most epic things I've ever witnessed in a video game. my P38 reconnaissance plane did not stand a chance..
You are allowed only one other player to join you in a 3 ship bomber formation. But as the pilot can man ALL the guns of all three ship defense in a bomber can be formidable
omg...that was you...i was in that formation...we had so many people join our mission..I remember WHEN the p38 was spotted, then later we got swarmed with the little jets, and you name it..was epic,
DDG, what are you using for your visuals, a VR headset, or some sort of IR tracker? I played this game years ago, but always with the static hat-view positions. I really like the natural, fluid look of your view here. Thanks.
It is an option in the hangar. You can have two bomber drones with you, or not. If you have drones, and your lead plane gets blown up, the pilot is switched to one of the remaining drones.
I used to play this game when i was in beta like almost ten years ago lol. Should know better too he was at 100 knots not miles per hour. Aircraft speeds are measured in Knots we know this devil.
I know that the game is free but I still don't understand the subscription of $15 a month? After 2 weeks, can I still play the game and do multiplayer?
The sub is for playing MMO. You can play offline for free forever, I think. But if you want to fight against other pilots, you need a sub. For me, it's completely worth the expense. Well spent entertainment dollars, imho.
It is an arena configuration option. We have most of the arenas configured to allow bomber pilots an external view. Fighter pilots are planted in the cockpit. Our "Dueling Arena" allows external views for all planes. Before takeoff, you can go external in everything.
In addition to the above comments, note that the in-cockpit view system will spoil you and you will want it in any other flight sim you play. You can save head positions for EACH angle to move your head within a logical space inside the cockpit, making your own personalized view as you look around, avoiding the pillars and frames that you choose. It also supports TrackIR and full head motion movement and tracking if you've got that kind of setup.
the guys that fly without losing speed just hacked all the shit out of the game rattling shaking red out black out the game just has a good cockpit setup make you feel like a real dogfighter
No it's called energy management. They are not hacking the game to keep up their speed they just know how to manage their speed with out burning it off.
aces high is to much money for the game when you can play shit bag heroes n generals for free and you have more to do its more of a all around game aces high s a one trick pony
Please play more of this DDG. I would watch this all day.
YM/ Private First Class where u YM out of man I'm from Pennsylvania and I'm a Lance Corporal
I'm from the Seattle Young Marines (WA).
Thx for this DDG...nice to see it from your perspective. Keep up the good work
Damn, I remember this. This game is 17 years old.
Yes, 17 years old, and 218 updates later. A lot has changed over the years and it continues to change. For example, we just released "match play" in the latest (V3.0 Patch 19) release.
Who remembers seeing commercials for this game back on the history channel years ago?
5:37am here in AZ and love your videos devil keep it up man
The flight model on Aces High is wayyyyy better than war thunder. That's just my opinion though.
+Brian Lastname thats not saying much lol
I don't know man, Flat Spin simulator is simulating flat spins pretty nicely.
this game takes real skill you actually trim your prop your fuel air mixture also if you have extra fuel on you it weighs you down makes your plane turn slower so yeah the flight model is 10 times better than War Thunder garbage..
people still play WT?
maybe I'll set aside a few days to update and see what the shitshow is like these days
WT literally simulates all of that...
The FM in this game is garbage, it's arcade garbage.
Not saying some people don't like it, but the simulator in WT is far more realistic, not as realistic as say DCS, but significantly more realistic than Aces High.

love how you can controlled the big ships and send them into combat the based close to sea and other ships all while the carriers are still pumping
Phydaily and you MAKE THE BEST CONTENT

This makes me miss the Air Warrior series. Such a great MMO flight sim.
Holy hell the nostalgia, people still play this game?
More would be awesome, First thing interesting in awhile but I watch most vids anyway
so basically this is what warthunder is trying to do but someone beat them into it long ago.
play more of this please!
Lots of respect since you're flying for the Rooks!
Thank you devil for bringing this to my attention.
Awwww yeah up at 4 30 am to see devils upload hells yeaaaaaa

I love your videos devildog they're pretty entertaining and thx you for you service i really appericate what you did for this country thank you so much. I'm actually going to the marine corps after high school. but thx you for everything you did
Miss this game hope you do some more =videos with it
I miss Warbirds, the original iteration of this. That was like, late 90's though.
bombers fly perfectly in formation case when you pick them it spawns 3 ai which follow you
yo devil keep playing aces high pls. I love it
i remember seeing advertisements for this game probably well over a decade ago
That was great i wish I didn't drive a truck so I can play this great work both of you
Aces high is old, but fuckit's great. I love it even if you have to download a 24 page book to get all the controls because the game doesn't tell you.

guy who made the mission was called Hotdogman i believe

4:33 am for me
hey devil i love this u should do a ship gameplay of this
do more of this pls
How's the server population? Might get back into it if there's a decent amount of players.
I said no gear right before devil mentioned them missing.
162nd PurpleHearts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do a bomber crew with a bunch of UA-camrs
do a live stream with this game. looks way cooler than war thunder.
If you could do a multi crew bomber vid that would be really cool if not I understand just a recommendation enjoyed the vid
Casablanca class escort carrier?
Ben Wilson Essex class carrier
2 hour late start for school woooo
i remember playing this when i was 10 and not knowing what tf to do
Aces High is still a thing...?
I was thinking "Where's his landing gear??" :-)
Damn! Aces High is looking GOOD! What is the player pop like nowadays?
USA evenings 200+ weekends 300+
when you fly a bomber you get 2 AI bombers in formations in Aces High
It is an option in the hangar. You can have two bomber drones with you, or not. If you have drones, and your lead plane gets blown up, the pilot is switched to one of the remaining drones.
yes play more often :D
I used to play this game when i was in beta like almost ten years ago lol. Should know better too he was at 100 knots not miles per hour. Aircraft speeds are measured in Knots we know this devil.
hi it's 11:28pm for me
bacon bro we really dont care
I care. Its 11:33 for me but i started watching 1:52+ min ago.
Thank fuck you are playing this.
Aces high has a 2 and 3?
2 is discontinued, currently only 3 is available.
Where do you go to download this? I tried on the main website but it wouldnt go
check your firewall cus it works for me
I know that the game is free but I still don't understand the subscription of $15 a month? After 2 weeks, can I still play the game and do multiplayer?

Nice, could you continue to try out world of tanks please
is there a 3rd person
Dorcia McIlhenny nope all cockpit sort of gives it a Level Playing Field..
no the bombers have 3rd person views.
It is an arena configuration option. We have most of the arenas configured to allow bomber pilots an external view. Fighter pilots are planted in the cockpit.
Our "Dueling Arena" allows external views for all planes.

oh shit the zero dived on them that's a bad
notification squad stand the fuck up

Turn left ,,,, Turn right ,,, Navy pilots LOL
ПРИВЕТ
Anyone still play this?
quite a few
devildog i want more project life and can you be a firefighter plzzz and santos rp is cool
People still get online on this?
Every. Single. Day.
is it free to play or do you have to pay?
I believe there is a 2 week free trial. Then it is about 14.99 a month. Unless that changed
peanut butt oh ok. thanks
First 2 weeks all is free, After which some arenas remain completely free. And for all is 14.95
Hitech Creations - Aces High So you can still play it for free just not the full game
The custom arenas are still free after the two weeks free trail is up.
haha.. no landing gear :P
wait, are those hellcats?
The Angry Marine f4u's corsairs
Those don't have the wing design of the Corsair. They have a straight wing design where the Corsair has a bit of a drop sort of like a v shape.
Just look at the cockpit man, that rear visibility is so poor because of that back plate which was only installed in corsairs
The Angry Marine also you cant see the v-shape because the wings are so low
All I'm saying is that f4u Corsairs have a very specific wing design that these planes don't have
the guys that fly without losing speed just hacked all the shit out of the game rattling shaking red out black out the game just has a good cockpit setup make you feel like a real dogfighter
No it's called energy management. They are not hacking the game to keep up their speed they just know how to manage their speed with out burning it off.
Play some DCS, it's been a while ;)
Hmmm i need to get back on lol
debadawg
Heyyyyy This is how I got my nickname
Holy Fvck, is this Phlydally? You sound like him
Oh my bad, ke Phly's mic is louder so I thought it was his video
AH3 sux compared to the first game...AH had jets...but now AH3 doesnt...
AH3 has Me262, Komet163 & Ar234.
Where di you get the idea we no longer have jets? We have the same plane set we had in Aces High II. The same jets are in there.
I have the game...stopped playing cause of FPS issues, and lack of jets...
it's a ww2 simulator not the korean or prrsent day war. they have what was available then. although they do have ww1 arena so check back later
play il2 with mods
Whar are your thoughts on pineapple on pizza?
