For the last year everybody wouldn't SHUT UP about 'when will AH2 be here?'

Now everyone is whining BECAUSE it's here.

Sure there are some glitches here and there, but that happens with ALL software.

Get over yourselves.

Why thank you :-)  

I am trying very hard to make my vitriolic commentary more constructive.

Wouldn't it be ironic if some of the people who thought raising the monthly fee would help keep out the "riffraff", might not have powerful enough systems to run it?

Technically the Banana 'can' run AHII, however you will need to upgrade the drivers for your BananaStick Pro and your BananaPedals.

Hehehe yep that just means that HTC really raised the cost of play time by forcing you to decide to upgrade or go play somewhere else for a while. ;)

Where else are people going to go?  

If someone doesn't have enough computer to play AH2 (a lot of folks SAY that but haven't tried it) then they aren't going to be playing ANYTHING but Pong or Tetris.

Almost every good computer game out there now requires much more hardware than AH2.

I dont know how but I get 50-132 FPS in IL2 FB @1600x1200res all eye candy on.

And in AH2 I get 62-75. FPS

Still scratchin my head on this one.

Oh and I have V-synch on too.

Yeah I also get very very good frame rates in IL2:FB.

But, I think that someone who can't even run AH2 (like folks with integrated graphics, Rage or voodoo cards) aren't going to find many other games that will play acceptably.

still playable. IMO once you get above 30 there really isn't much of a difference between 40 fps and 90 fps.

I don't know much about programming but I'd guess they are using alot of error reporting, etc... right now nor is it "finished" by any means. Give it 6-8 mths after release and then see how you feel.
