Now that we have been delightfuly surprised and warned of the new GPU demanding eyecandy. How many of you will sign up with the "Cut HiTech and Pyro some Slack Club" when those reflections eat our FPS during regular game play?
Climber,
We are circling a reflective plastic canopy that has never existed in Aces High before now. Go offline and pull up a fighter on the runway. Turn on all the graphics bells and whistles if you have them shut off to improve your FPS online. F3 and look at the canopy from different directions. No shiney glossy sheens and mirror like object reflections.
Wonder what it will be like to up into a 40 plane hoard base take with everything turned on after the next release?
Stutter, stutter, HuH, stutter, HuH, dern where'd that come from, stutter, freeze, stutter, freeze, tower...HuH what??
Yes, Bustr is right. Anyone who bought a computer in the last year or upgraded will think they can run everything maxed out, and then complain about how terrible the coad is. What they don't know that I have discovered, is that I can keep my graphics and eye candy limited while in game, film my flight and turn the eye candy on later before I enter filmviewer.
I get the best of both worlds.
And even though I was pointed to this thread to read about the possibility of AI entering the Custom Arenas, the reflection of the #2 engine was the first thing that caught my eye. The new glass reflections are even more exciting. I am expecting this to also include reflective surfaces on the planes which already have mirrors in place?????
Nice work folks!! See even FiFi was curious to take a peek.
