I'd imagine HTC would be wary of making predictions about future framerates at this early stage. Until they have a working version with all the features implemented, all the debug stuff removed and it has been tested they can't know for sure.

In theory as the new version will implement the currently unused Shader 3.0 feature of the video card this should free up the CPU to either improve framerates or make the game look better at the same framerates.

However, I do think that B-26 needs to be transitioned to an A-26. Blood Pig'n (most fun in a game ever) must rise again! ;->
Why?  That would be stupid.  You'd get rid of one of the most popular bombers in the game, a mass produced bomber in WWII to add a hardly played a part in WWII perk attack aircraft?

Just add the A-26 and keep the B-26.  What is so hard about that?  Why to people keep suggesting that units we already have be removed at the same time as they request new units?

Great news!

I'd hope the new plane would be a Pe-2 but I'm guessing it'll be a Beaufighter which certainly isn't a bad choice in itself.

I think it may partly be because people STILL don't get that the B-26 and A-26 are two entirely different, unrelated aircraft.
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.

What I like about the move is their commitment to improve AH as quickly as resources allow.  They are making all the right moves to keep me as a subscriber. :aok

Poor wording on my part. I didn't mean remove one for the other. I meant the development work being done should "transition" to the A26. More=better

Can't really agree with you there either.  B-26 was horribly outdated and needed to be redone.

Adding the A-26 would be good too, but it does not obviate the need to update the 2000 and 2001 3D models.
