Sad, just finished finals and wanted to get a lot of time in this weekend. Hopefully back up soon.

I wonder if they have data centers in Houston. My son lives there and they are getting hammered.

Working on it.

Map change please, we were on that one for nearly 5 days and were 2 bases from victory.  All the GV guys have been away, waiting for something more suitable.

agree - it would be a bummer to go back to same map.

without doubt that is the worst map on aces high as reflected by the small number of players. it bored me so much I had to log off and go and play something else.
I`m sure I will be ignored, but the best maps were on aces high 2  and we had useable barns to put gvs in.

Power went down here Thursday night. Transformer exploded took my $300 router's internet plug and my modem's RJ45 plug. Replaced my modem. My router will be here tomorrow and I should be back up.

Without internet my house is no longer smart. Have to flip switches and physically touch controls. LOL

I’m ignoring it because I like this map.

Was there ever a reason given for doing away with center isle tanktown? I'm not much of a GV'er but had some very fun ground fights there.

They built a "new" tank town. It has the elevated spots to fight from with a bunch of roads that wind around the hills. I guess the idea was to make it more like a field/open area instead  a city fight.

I forgot about those! - yep that was always fun.   :aok :banana:

Would be nice if they came back at some point.   :cool:

I would wonder if you could spot them, (GVs from the air), at all with the current view setting though.

The barns were a nice touch.

Switched from DX9 to DX11 a few months ago and it's been smooth as silk -- no pauses or stutters.  However, after the server reset a couple of days ago, the DX11 pauses and stutters are back.  Coincidence or clue?

Coincidence, no stutter on DX11 for me after reset
