OMG, STFU. You may be even more annoying than me, and I didn't think anyone could top me. But you are just a little 11 year old boy who need to go die in a hole.

troll ftw

King was good and I wasn't so old.

Any classic altitude servers? Just watched the vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ws1t_adClhg and got all misty-eyed.

Some random stuff:

- There were no afterburners. However, I think overall planes didn't stall quite as easily and tended to retain speed a little better when climbing, but I might be remembering wrong.

- Loopy was Snoopy on a doghouse. Instead of EMP, he fired an egg with Woodstock inside. If the egg impacted an enemy plane directly or was close to a plane when it hit a wall, woodstock would stick to that plane and start bumping him around, making it hard to control.

- Miranda had a teleport ability instead of the reverse or time anchor. This worked by basically making your plane disappear to everyone else. For the player, however, his plane was replaced by a little arrow thing that could fly through walls/bullets and had increased mobility. After a couple seconds you'd pop back into existence. It was pretty awesome, but it also caused huge headaches for mapmakers.

- There were no perks and no leveling.

- The graphics were really bad. Search for videos on youtube to see what I mean.

- Explodet mines didn't track guys.

- The explodet had a much thinner profile - basically like a long, bomber-shaped biplane.

- All weapons could damage the base. One of the most effective ways to take a base down was to land nose-down on their base with the biplane and start nailing them with your machine gun.

- There were only two game modes: TBD and FFA.

- There was a map feature called boost arrows that would reorient your plane in the direction of the arrow and give you a huge speed boost.

- There were also teleporters that could be set up to teleport you to wherever the mapmaker wanted you to go.

- Most played maps were Cave (an FFA map that was very different from the current cave), Grasslands (a tbd map that was similar to Hills, but a bit longer and better overall), and City (an FFA map with tall buildings that has no through-passages).

- The shield power-up covered your top and bottom, with holes at the front and rear.

- There was an additional powerup that gave you infinite energy for the duration it was triggered.

- Planes did not leave behind health packs when destroyed.

- There was a map feature where mappers could create a runway with a powerup attached. Planes could then land on the runway to pickup the powerup.

- Runways and bases were separate entities. Bases were much smaller overall, making lobbing much more difficult (but harder to stop since planes didn't have afterburners).

- I could be mistaken, but I THINK the bomb didn't slow down the carrier.

- The biplane's machien gun didn't have nearly as much recoil.

- The bomber had no grenades. Just dumb bombs and a tailgun. It sucked balls, but I actually thought it was a really interesting/unique plane that had a lot of potential. (And now you finally know why the plane is called the Bomber. :P)

- The screen was zoomed out quite a bit more - probably equiv to setting the screen zoom to 115-120 or so.

That was interesting. I thought you were joking about the Snoopy Loopy until I saw the video. Altitude's come a long way.

and actually if your talking about wood my brother (SWN FILLICHIO KGB) was joining asking to join swn and Wood said OK even though he's just a usual member so he got kicked out of SWN

P.S. Does any1 know why wood got kicked form forum?? even though he got kicked he made a new account on forums: W0_0D, kinda cheap

Why oh why am I bothering. But anyway, as I understand it, Wood was a major spammer (troll?) on the forums. Let that be a lesson.

And please, edit your posts instead of stringing together multiple posts.

It was, 4 years ago. I've only been around for about 8 months so I never tried that version but you can spot all the current planes there. The one who looks like a shotgun is the miranda. The thin one that drops bombs is the Bomber. The red ones in the final scene are the biplanes and the one going after them is the snoopy, now renamed loopy. If you look close you can spot the Woodstock that Dio talked about growing on what seems to be snoopy's shoulder.

Snowsickle used to be annoying? Hrm, I don't really remember. Honestly the only person I really had a problem with from old Altitude was Flare. God I hated that guy.

As amusing as you both are, keep it in one thread so it's easier to reference and we don't all have to look at it when we don't want to.

FIllichios aint old enough for love, and York´s dick is just too big (so he says)... wich in fact would be a problem he is unaware of. Something obviously noone ever told him.
Say, lets make a money collect so York can make his tool just big enough to make Flick shut up or at least stop spamming forums. Maybe a mute button in forums would come cheaper... >> suggestions threads maybe...
