Are these upgrades independent of Tour of Duty?

Can we expect them in two weeks?

Will our fps suffer much?

The funny thing is, you can say that new updated AH terrain is similiar to the terrain from dozens of WW2 games.  EAW is the game that popped into my mind when I first saw the terrain.

It's quite amazing what a little spec of the miscellaneous can do to the overall visual feel of the entire game. The white beaches alone make those screenshots seem like almost an entirely different game.

Such amazing scenes must be filled with Shermans, Comets, Panthers, M10s, Jadgpanthers, Stuarts, T34-85s, etc etc etc.

I have some questions, if somebody from HTC doesn't mind answering:

You say the impact is the same on performance. Is this because these are replacing the old system of "random trees" (and the net # of trees is still about the same), or are they supplementing them (i.e. a different tile for the terrain), and even while displaying more trees the impact is the same?

The hedgerows look rather nice, but we've had problems before on Karelia with defensive trenches with getting in, turning, and getting out of narrow areas in GVs. Will you be able to drive through these, which for a tank would be realistic, in order to prevent any problems?

Does the change in the beach/sea connection mean smoother landings for LVTs, and is the "getting stuck on a speck of land" issue gone now?

Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

One more question:

What are the green and red marks in the upper left sky? Are these some sort of waypoint markers, or something?

HARDLY.

Coral, mud or PSP airstrips; palm trees and jungle plants; volcanic rock; quonset huts, pagoda-style buildings, tents, tarps and camo net instead of permanent concrete and metal structures at the bases, etc etc.

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.
