Coming back?
« on: September 15, 2023, 04:27:09 PM »
I just noticed my account is still active. I last played in 2016 and did a lot of missions with ET37 (RIP), Great mission leader.
 I am considering getting back in the game.
 My computer is elderly so I will get a new computer if I start back up. What should I get to run the game at its maximum?

I have a custom Dell XPS, with a Nvidia Geforce 3060 ti vid card, runs 100% full detail really well.

Pretty sure this game is heavily reliant on graphics card, don't skimp there.   Do you plan to use VR or not?

I have an older computer.

i7 3770k CPU
24 GB ram
1060 6GB ram video card

I ran the graphics pretty much full out with no problems. I also run VR now and then and only had trouble when I got in very busy spots. I have since upgraded my video card, but as always this game is easy on equipment.

See here..... $650 computer build

For the modern cards, a 3050 or higher will easily max out the game at 2k resolution and 144hz.

You don't need it for Aces High but the Nvidia 4070 has dropped to $550.

It's different when ya'v been away for a while,... it's actually more fun. Ya kinda come in with a different POV, The small beans don't matter anymore, you're just happy it's still here. :)

Lol. No interest in coming back myself but for some reason I want to check the boards.  I don’t know how many years it has been.
