With the new update, what else can we expect?
« on: January 21, 2015, 07:37:02 PM »
We know with the new update coming, we're getting new graphics, terrains, and base/town layouts but what else?  Will we also see changes/improvements to the current flight and damage models?  Will there also be game play changes such as a new strat system?

You are one of the last people I'd see asking such questions. :lol  But I would be lying if I said these questions didn't cross my mind either. :aok

I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

If the magician reveals how the trick is done it ruins the magic. Or, if you know too much about what's coming it will ruin the surprise. Besides, the number one trait of a skilled fighter pilot is patience.  :aok

My best guess is we'd get something like when we got AH2. I recall someone mentioning rotating windmill blades as a wow! effect back then. Supposedly there'll be something equal to add immersion.

Also based on the past I suppose that at first the new version will be played very much alike this current one, strat system changes being made after seeing how the masses can capture bases etc. on the new layout.

I've got an older system by today's standards that still runs the game well by my standards.

Beta testers don't exist yet. The title of the post sticky above says Alpha Testers. That usually means you sign a none disclosure pact in blood or something like that.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Yes, all alpha testers are sworn into secrecy.

I can tell you though that I've heard they are working on a graphics update... you didn't hear it from me...  :noid
