and the lighting, it's not dark like currently when you turn off all the 'eye candy'...

I much more prefer those graphics tbh than current ones.

And it's from 99 !


The graphics of AH were never the problem...... it's all about gameplay.

I would be paying 15$  for those graphics and AH 1 gameplay today no problem.

I do like the clearity and the farms on picture 7 and 8. I am not a fan of the AH 3 green yellow sky... I also like the open field plane selection.

People are never happy! Just remember those who left or who said this game isn't tempting for new players because of the outdated graphics...

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

In the sense that everything is more clearer, the sky is blue, and I bet it was always day, because there was no night time (night time is not good for a game like this).


AH 3 might have more polygons and pixels, but at the cost of being more muddy and with the new 'special effects' like shadows, bloom etc it looks like it went through various filters and it makes you see the world like you would have vision impairment.

That's why I prefer AH 1 graphics (AH 2 graphics looks ok also)

Do chess has amazing graphics ? No

and people play chess since hundreds of years, because of the gameplay.

Night time was a thing in ah 2 but later on removed.

I do like the bright sky's. I am a sucker for bright colours, but as a graphic designer I know toned down colours often work better :uhoh

I don't like the mud either tbh

the old clouds looked ok from a distance but as they were rendered relative to your position they tended to rotate very fast once you were directly above or under them
