Some myths to be disparaged [Posted on 2003-02-05]
Fighter Ace has not been a Microsoft product for some time now.
They went solo on their own with the staff who designed the game.

AH guys say FA pilots are biased?
Better look in the mirror, and it isnt just a kids game.
Many are from the older family crowd and very enthusiastic about the history and modeling of the aircraft in every possible detail.

It takes some practice to be good in the game.
I have flown every flight sim I could get my hands on and FA presented me with the best immersion and feel of them all.
(CFS 1-3, IL2, AcesHigh, WarBirds, X-Plane, Crimson Skies)

Its not about fighting premapped drones.
Its not about fighting hacked opponents.
It's facing real people in a sportsmans atmosphere.

For the price nobody can beat VR-1 & Jaleco for the package they have assembled hands down. CFS 3 Was pretty but still as flat a flight model as CFS2. And for the price of CFS I think MS bombed.
They should have stuck by the FA Platform its developers are among the very best in programming and as people.

Sincerely,

Server Stability was fixed as promised. [Posted on 2003-02-05]
I just read some of the reviews. I dont know how these guys arrived at a customer service being poor aspect. All you have to do is ask anyone in the game. They have help rooms open 24/7. The community dives in to help anyone having trouble anytime I've been in an arena.

I do notice often some people have no patience with new things and blame others for the fact. Your not going to buy this game and be the best overnight. Doesnt happen in any game with actual depth. There are so many planes with definitive characteristics to master it can be overwhelming. Recognizing a bogie aircraft and combat manuevers take alot of practice as well as gunnery. Ballistics are modeled realistically as possible in weapon rate of fire, mass, muzzle velocity and trajectory. I wouldn't recommend trying to dogfight an interceptor with a torpedoe bomber unless you've been playing awhile. =)

No luck is bad luck [Posted on 2003-05-22]
I had no luck getting Fighter Ace 3.5 to work on my PCs. I installed it on Windows 2000 and XP. When I try to fly, the plane stays in a left turn. You have to keep correcting the plane by countering with right turns. I contacted the support group and tried every fix they suggested. However, the problem has not been resolved. I would strongly suggest another game choice.

Fun online game, for high speed users, you can download Fighter Ace for free online!!!! [Posted on 2005-10-04]
I have been playing Fighter Ace for a while and even the old ones are alright. Since 1997, Fighter Ace was a WWII flight combat game that you can play with REAL people! You can choose your side (Soviet Union, Germany, Japan, U.S.A, and Great Britan). Even though Fighter Ace 1 never had any bombers and not many fighters, they multiplied and Fighter Ace II came in. It was better than the first one. I have played all versions of Fighter Ace and none of them EVER lived up to the latest version of Fighter Ace! And you are able to download Fighter Ace 3.8. You can pick over 100 planes (including bombers) and you have to shoot down enemy planes, bomb tanks and enemy aircraft and then send troops down and they have to capture the enemy bases. Make a torpedo run on ships or bomb them, better if you bomb them.

The detail in Fighter Ace is great! You can push F4 and you can spy on an enemy aircraft! The gears are in the correct places, you can look around in the cockpit. And you can see the outside of your plane so you might dodge bullets and machine gun fire. You can also take-off from either a carrier or an airfield. Or land in a carrier or an airfield as well.

Now the best thing about Fighter Ace is the online version of the game. You can meet people from all over the WORLD and battle them in a Free For All match, or a Team Combat game. You can make your own arena using options that will affect gameplay. Whether it's windy, cloudy, or unlimited fuel and limited ammo, you can change maps and options like those. Now since this online game is watched by Ketsujin Studios, the players are polite and honest. I've never seen such FRIENDLY players in a game... Ever! No curse words, no sex, no blood, just shooting down airplanes is all in the game.

Now to enjoy the online adventure you have to subscribe to Ketsujin Studios and you have to put in email address and other information. You get a 2 week free trial (I'm still on the trial) before you have three options to pay cash with or without a credit card. 1. $14 per month. 2. $39 per 3 months. 3. $76 per month. Those are the options and I recommend using number 3. And Ketsujin will offer prizes for the winner of their special events.

Note: You will definatly need a joystick. I am visiting Chile during this writing and I didn't bring my joystick. You can use the keyboard but it'll be hard to shoot players down.
