Flight Sims , Ahahaah this game is not a flight sim. Im talking about actual flight simulators. Like flight sim x11 the real flight sims. Yes there graphics are awsome the water looks real there is weather , there are trees grass , reall ground , dont tell me u think this game is a flight sim
Mustard think about what you are saying. If you want a Microsoft Flight Simulator X then make a CD so that we can all download it into our computors and you can have all of you uber graphics you want.

if only HTC could make it look like this!



Oh man, if it looked like that I don't think I would ever get off. I agree with mustard 100% on this.  :aok

Have you ever played the others? AHII is the best simulator I've ever seen. Well, I guess you're on a 1 way road to PNG


IN.

Aces High is probably all you've played then.. :lol  IL2 has another series being released called Birds of Prey that will pretty much CRUSH any other WW2 flightsim in every aspect from physics to graphics, including Aces High.  There are a TON of other flightsims out there with 10 times better graphics than Aces High.. 

I think Aces High graphics are kind of behind the times to allow playability on a larger scale with those who have systems that
may be more than a few years old.  Marketing bro!  Gotta keep yourself open to a large market!

Also, I don't think Aces High is very efficient graphically.  Especially on older systems, 2X AA will drop your FPS levels to damn near unplayable.  Not sure about you, but I like to play my games cranked to the max when it comes to graphics and I have the system to do so..
From my perspective, if I can't play something that looks pretty, there's no point in playing it.  If I had to play COD4 or Crysis at med graphic levels, I'd probably pay my 3 years old to punch me in the face and say "What are you doing papa!!???" 
A "simulation" indicates a degree of realism.  Graphics enhances that realism..

I play WarBirds and Fighter Ace 3, and they look like Aces High 1 compared to AHII.

Well, now it's quite obvious that Aces High is all you play, so your opinion that Aces High is the best graphically is pretty ill-informed. :D

No , flight sim doesnt beat aces high good parts. Talking with friends and flying together... just saying I think there can be a happy medium somewhere.

They are the best of all the other flight sims I've ever played dude. I've also played the new IL-2 game, graphics arent as good in the cockpit, only thing they got is out-side the plane, nothin else.

What new Il2?  The newest IL2 doesn't come out until next year..  What you're playing isn't new..  The latest release of Il2 is 1946 and that's several years old..  Seriously man, get up to speed....

This is also a downloadable game so it has to be relatively small enough to allow those on a dial up connection to be able to download the game.  If this was a boxed only game then more advanced graphics could be used but it's not. HiTech has to make a compromise between having a game full of eye candy and a game that will allow those that don't have a high end system or broadband connection to play and download the game.

Also, try to be less insulting to the developers that make that game that you play.  The old saying "Don't bite the hand that feeds you" comes to mind but it appears that you are too stupid to understand such a basic concept.


ack-ack

Respectfully, I completely disagree with the fact that this game has to be limited by people who don't want to upgrade their systems or their connections.  To my knowledge, Aces High is the only game that I know of that restricts itself due to this situation.  I can't think of any other game released in the last 2-3 years that can even utilize a dial-up connection for internet game-play besides Aces High..  Even in 2004 when it was released there were very few games that could still utilize a dial-up connection.  In Aces High, latency due to limiting factors such as a dial-up connection (however some dial-ups are actually pretty decent as far as latency is concerned depending on location, modem, system, tweaking, etc. but most dial-up users will not consider such things because they probably don't know) will cause one to warp.  In other games, latency will slowdown the entire game for everyone.  Kinda sucks when you have a game that crawls at a snails pace due to one guy using a dial-up/wireless/satellite connection..

I understand Aces High marketing strategy in this matter..  It's completely logical.  After all, most people who play this game are older than your average gamer and they are less apt to upgrade their systems or internet connections based on either cost, lack of necessity, ignorance, or a combination of all 3.  That's not a swipe at anyone playing this game, just a fact I've come to observe.

1 gig downloads are very common for many game demos these days..  As I said, this game is limited by the fact that many who play it are still limited by their hardware, internet connection, or (tragically) both.. 

If HTC were to suddenly upgrade their graphic engine, they'd probably alienate more than half of their subscribers.  That's a bad business decision.  So, HTC will slllloooowwwllllyyy develop this game and it will always be behind the standard by a few years.  But that's all good because no other game has 400 people in one arena at a time and I will surely take the hit graphically to be able to play and talk to so many people.. :rock
