If I were a millionaire and had the Hitechs approval i would completely overhaul this mofo... Completely new graphics top to bottom a la War thunder/Cliffs of Dover (course it has to run on my piece o crap pc pretty good as well tho).. Then I would integrate the original flight/damage modeling with a few modifications.. Such as a more accurate flap/gear/dive brake modeling per aircraft.. (speed restrictions etc.) and maybe a little more precise damage modeling.. I'd throw in fuel mixture and supercharger controls.. There would be better more authentic sounds... Accurate historical terrains... Drop the rook/bish/knight concept in the Main Arena and go to Axis vs. Allies as the MA... rook/bish/knight as a secondary/dueling type arena possibly.. And thats it.. maybe add some limited troop or soldier first person type role also in the game..

this makes me laugh....
you want the graphics of War Thunder....and the FM of AH and still run on your crappy PC.....
ever play cliffs of Dover?
do you have any clue what it takes to run a AAA game?
you have to have a give and take....for a wider customer base....
computers are a lot like cars...how fast you wanna go? how much money you have to spend?
besides the fact a WW2 game Aces High is NOT....
a side mission based system.... with AI and PvP... where you chose a country and have to say on it...separate from the MA is a way better idea then changing the MA....the sandbox aspect of the MA is what makes Aces High so awesome.
