HTC should make another Arena. Just name it another color for later War. They should make another arena with the old Version of AH. For people that cant enjoy the new version. Just so people have a choice on what version they want to play on. Alot of AH players computer's are not that good for the new version.

Mines a pretty low end deal. But once i updated my video card and what not, it works pretty well. Only downside is i dont get to see the pretty water and the pretty ground, but thats not why i play aces high. I play for the fights and what not. It can look like the old sega geniuses as far as i care, so long as i get to fly and fight with friends!
:salute :rock :aok
WTG Hitech and gang!! It was worth the 28 hours of pain to get it to work!!

Not a techi by any means, but I would think they would have to have 2 completely different games for the old version and new version to be separate. Which would more than likely never happen.
As far as people not being able to run it the new version.. it will be addressed in time. It's been what, 36 hours? Give them time, let them see what they can do. But in all reality, they won't stop moving forward with the game/company because people won't/can't upgrade their systems. People can say they will quit all they want, but sadly, there are more and more people joining every day.
I'm one of the fortunate ones, and I can run the new version just fine. But I do understand the frustration, when AH2 came out, I had to go buy a whole new computer to run it because mine was so out dated.
Just give'em time to see what's going to happen. :)

I remember when AH went to AH2, I had to upgrade my comp....it happens. :rock

Its been over a month since it came out. When I first played it I for one had to drop a lot of eyecandy to play, but it was improved greatly since then. Maybe they'll make a patch or two that will make things run smoother, but now that its out of beta I doubt they'll make any big changes.

I've actually heard people say that they ran beta fine, but something between the beta and it going live changed, and the game runs crappy compared to the beta.

High five! Someone else in my shoes! Those people complaining about their framerates being in the sixties, HAH! Mine never even pass sixty.

This is a truth, for me anyway. I was optimistic my last spin through beta getting around 50 with graphics cranked (including AA). I haven't changed one setting and now I'm at 22 fps. If nothing changed on my end, something had to have changed on theirs. Or maybe it's just that there's more people on and they are actually playing the game right and blowing stuff, creating FX etc. instead of having 1v1 Brewster fights over TT all day.

Beta doesn't count...that's why it's called "Beta". The production version only came out this past Tuesday.

Sorry but the beta and the version we have now are exactly the same game except one is called 'beta' and one is not.

Try this first before going off.

If you had a new arena with old version, how would the Arena CAP work? :huh

If you have V-synch enabled in the game or in your video card's settings it never will. V-synch keeps your in-game framerates in synch with your monitor's referesh rate. The only way to see framerates above 60 is to either get a monitor with a higher refresh rate, or disable V-synch. However you don't want to leave V-synch off except for framerate tests (causes weird reactions when the screen tries to refresh otherwise).

I would vote for a new MA arena that does not include scores. I'm certain this would would be a welcome addition.

Hey Saxman that is something I always have wondered about , as my FR never goes above 60 . I thank you for the explanation on this . And I will not adjust the V-synch to get higher frame rates as Aces High is not all I do with my PC . I currently get 55/60 FR and I'm ok with that , need a few very small tweeks and its all good .
Nutte :salute

I got FR's up to 300fps when I did testing, depending on which direction I was looking. :D

You should never let any applications FR go above your monitor's max supported refresh rate or you can tear your pixels and brick your monitor.

Running a game with V-sync disabled will not eventually fry your monitor or damage it, it can cause some graphic anomolies like tearing and the like. Running your monitor at a refresh rate above the supported refresh rate will fry your monitor.

she CAN BE annoying....I'm on frikkin vacation (here at house) and she was all sorts of hacked off when she got home from work and found me at computer! :huh

Bad thing is if you believe this, you don't know the AH population. At least 75% of the people in AH play for score in one way or another. (On top of trying to win the never ending war) Those of us that don't worry bout it, are a very small minority anymore. :(

So here's a question: Assuming your monitor can run at several different refresh rates, should you pick the higher number or the lower?

Not so much an issue with LCD/Flat Panel anymore. With CRT you would have a slight flicker at 60 (noticable if you looked at monitor with peripheral vision) so I used 70 hz on CRT's.

I personally select the highest refresh rate my monitor can support. I have a 19in widescreen with refresh rates of 60, 70, 75, 80, 85Mhz and I have it set to the highest at 85Mhz. As long as you set it to a refresh rate the monitor supports, you should really have no worries.
