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??


Sorry bustr (<S> to you sir) my sarcasm didn't come through on my post :)  The visual updates are always welcome (have settings turned up already but will need more POWER for the next step here) and glad to see HTC evolving the game.  I foresee more of my $$ going to TD for a video card upgrade.

But please oh please  :pray can we see some new maps?  Not complaining just wishing...

Anyone else see the reflection on the prop? 

Looking great... clearly, I need a newer computer.

I know it's probably not. But, did anyone notice on the tarmac around the rearming shack it looks like blue pools of water from after a rain?

Question: what about the interior? Will the cockpit have reflections too? Otherwise, we won't be seeing this eye candy the way it should be (unless you fly in bombers/F3 all day :)).

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

  This made me think...... :O    So I blew up the pic to look closer and what I thought was a P63 with drops looks more like a meteor!                :noid



    :salute




Would the reflection on the fuselage not be the inside of the engine closest and the wing? :)

Who says there aren't gameplay improvements as well?
