Graphics=EPIC NOW?  Negative. As far as pay to play games online, aces high has some of the worst graphics money can buy lol.

Even if this is true, and it isn't, it's not relevant.  Graphics don't keep players playing a game long-term; gameplay does.  Aces High excells in gameplay compared to the competition. 

If you want the ultimate in realistic graphics, get out of your your chair and go outside.

(Image removed from quote.)  :huh :uhoh They are OK, and better than before but, FAR from epic.
in a 1-10 i give it a 7. i play BF3 and thats my 10. so i think they are pretty epic. just sun and clouds needs work
only a moron would use Dolby positioning in a game.

I haven't noticed a big change in gameplay since Air Warrior; same hordes, same NOE missions, same griefers and the same groups of guys looking for a fight.

Unfortunately strat play has diminished and limited gameplay options with the clustering of all factories which were then pushed into the nether regions of each country.

On the other hand there's new toys and better graphics.

Hope you come back.  It would be nice to see more of the old hands return.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

My Internet gaming experience went full circle. I started with Aces High, went to other games, and ended up back to AH even tho I was able to buy a real nice custom build. The FPS started sucking terrible. BF3 was a hacked letdown. Battleground Europe self destructed. Im to old for the silly kiddie fantasy games. And IL2 Cliffs of Dover was/is a barf bag. ROF is a nice write but Im just not a WW1 freak. DCS A-10 is a great write and a great community but I dont feel like going to flight school or dogfighting other A-10s, or even P-51s.

So here i am. Back in the game with the hangarfull of the planes I love.

Firstly, i've never said that I was looking for the most realistic graphics out there. Also, my point is very relevant, if someone is asking what has changed and I say the graphics are still crap, then there you go. Third, I have obtained multiple pilot ratings in real life, so I think I've earned a seat in my chair for awhile. :P

I dont know why people get so butt hurt defending this game. I enjoy playing it just as much as the next guy, my only point was that as far as games that charge you $15 a month, the graphics are not on par with other pay to play games.
Here's to a long life and a happy one.

 Been waiting to hear of you.
 Many changes, towns bigger, more tanks, few more planes, same spits(let us not dwell on that). Once past those, very much as was.
 No one in AvA, WW1, Early War or Mid War areanas except few diehards, altho can be great fights. Friday Special Opes stil shining, bright star of realism(no icons till up close..).
 Oh, I have a new dog!

 :airplane: <=||LOL what does having multiple pilot ratings have to to do with it? If that is the case I guess I am an expert also (NOT) I have commercial, multi, IFR and instructor license and ratings, but I am sure no expert on this game.
My experience after playing some of the other online games is they SUCK big time. This is still dispute its problems the most fun and friendliest game going.

I wasnt bringing up pilot ratings because im a game expert, far from it. He had said if I want realisim I should get out of my chair and go outside, so my response to him was that i've done that and earned pilot ratings.
