Frame rate is a challenge. Im getting around 14 with trooper best case on a minimum machine, a Pentium 400, 128 megs RAM, and a voodoo 3. It gets lower in combat.

My 1.5g P4, with 128 megs RAM and Gforce2 gets 30+FPS with a trooper.

Loading times are rather long as well, and RAM helps.

I'll say it again, RAM helps, get a lot, 512 megs od RAM seems to do more than anything for performance, and RAM is pretty cheap these days."

Well I know where I'm not going.

You put your trust into a product that isn't even released to the public, and telling us AH is a dreamwork?

You must of been whacked upside the head with the handsomehunk stick one too many times.

Possi, I would strongly disagree with that statement, and believe me I know.

Possi · « **Reply #3 on:** May 27, 2001, 12:27:00 PM »

hmm, get more RAM ok,but what is better,Grafik or FH?

SeaWulfe · « **Reply #4 on:** May 27, 2001, 12:31:00 PM »

Get more RAM?

I have 392MB of P100 SDRAM. I do not need anymore RAM... if I need more RAM to run that game... it won't sit on my HDD for more than 1 day.

AH graphics are very nice... I've only seen some of WWIIOl's and well... I'm less than ecstatic (WB3 OTOH is excellent)..

WWIIOl's FM? No idea what it's like... But AH's FM is very close to the real thing.

I'll check out your opinion in 2 weeks Possi, when it really matters.

Did you know that Finnish pilots usually took off cannon pods from 109's because they became too nose heavy from that what they already were?

Although, there are few things that I don't agree with AH.
But 109's were in reality as well heavy to control, but 190s were far more lighter to control compared to 109.

Screw WWIIOL.

They won't let me see what its like before I fork out... $40 for the box, $35 for shipping to NZ, $10 a month IF i like it. IE... I will have to fork out NZ$178 just to LOOK at it.

And then it starts AGAIN when they release new arenas (Pacific, late war etc).

So much for the ohhhh its cheaper than AH $10 a month. Like hell it is!!!

And they've gone gold with a game STILL in closed beta.

Very very disappointing to say the least.

From what I've read from a few beta testers, it is being touted as a landmark online experience. No arcade sim at all. ust shooting a rifle and getting a kill is supposed to take a bit of skill also from long distance. No crosshairs, you have to aim thru the iron sights. Reason for the GONE GOLD decision was because of community demand for it to be released. Think about it: for $30 a month you are getting a sim that is still in beta stages and constantly being patched. I fail to see the difference betwixt AH and WW2Online.

fscott, that's what you read. And of course <sarcasm mode = on> if it was anything but phenominal they'd put up aar's and stories on the HW that reflected the many problemS and questionable features it has.

I've heard from no less than a half dozen closed beta testers (anyone have a problem with that tell it to someone else) who are good friends of mine that WW2O is....

well...

lol.

well, you'll see

(after you plop down $40)

I'll just say, it's monthly price is appropriate - that is if you like a FPS, tanking and low frame rates. Lum the Dums' article is not far off the mark at all.

If you like flying. You're gonna be pissed.
