CloD doesn't need to go this route to survive. The original series showed that simplicity is key. RoF's base game is now free, but to upgrade you need to play. IMHO that's a great way to get people into the game, and for the arcade types CloD has the settings to make the game an easy ride (just as the original Il-2 did). Keeping the kids out is an awful decision. Allowing them to mature in is highly logical.

keeping customers out, regardless of age, is certainly not clever ace, neither for 1c nor for us, but i can imagine, that you would certainly be happy to pay 12 dollars/hour to fly alone in the skies, pretending to be an ace.

Oh you kids say the dardest things!

Phill.. I know I have said this to you in the past..

But it apears that you have forgot?

So allow me to say it again

You seem to have me confused with someone that gives a flip about what you say or think..

Just for future reference know that I don't!

Thanks in advance! S!

His point, though, is apt.

You could've said it would keep immature players out, but by generalizing the term 'kids', you are being an ignorant fool.

Hardly

In that kids eventually grow up, at which point they will be able to afford to play.

Granted this filter can result in keeping out kids who don't act like kids..

But considering the fact that most kids act like kids it would not be a big loss IMHO!

At least that is the way it worked, and worked well back in the AirWarrior days when we paid $12/hr to play. With a filter like that, you didn't see anyone sitting in the lobby spaming the text at $12/hr like so many kids do today

That and most kids don't give a rip about historically accurate flight sims..

At that age chances are they will be off playing the arcade MMO version anyway..

Typically it takes time, as in grow older, before someone can appreciate the historically accurate flight sims

AOA proving once again why he should be forever ignored, lol the utter ignorance!

P.S.

Please for crying out loud stop quoting him!

[ACE-OF-ACES]

Poor JG52Krupi.. still having trouble admiting he has come full circle and that I was right back when he was defending the whinners

Screw the kids. Can we keep the immature adults out?
