Great Idea, but PLEASE, nothing else added that will cause my 10 yr old computers already strained Graphics card to keep me from playing AH lol. And I know im gonna hear "buy a new computer or GC then" but I am very tight on cash lol.  :ahand

+1 but to assuage the rest it should be on ur pc only not for the server to do that way u only see wreckage u witnessed when ur killed the battlefield resets keeps from killing other players view and gves more immersion to the player. also an option to turn it off in graphics should be an advanced option not a default

like I said,, not if it hurts the game,  but for a short time say 10 minutes or something heck yes, as long as it doesn't hurt the ability to play!
so when a 50 vs 50 furball happens then what? speaking of which, anyone wondering what would happen if a GV's cover just went poof?

Aces High is the least demanding game on my computer, and its almost 3 yrs old with a DDR3 GFX card. Its not like we're playing Crysis 2 here guys.

i still say +1, if your able to have thick forest of trees in the game your PC is more than capable of seeing temporary wrecks on the battlefield. I don't think people really understand the concepts here. frame rate wont drop as much as you may think or perhaps not at all. Theres no "junkyards" if wrecks disappear and its not like its gonna be all over the spawns and bases. Not to mention if you have people spawn camping and people continuously up, there wrecks act as decoys of somewhat potential.  :cheers:

If your so tight on cash why are you paying for a game? That's like saying I am so broke, but I am going to go out and buy cigarettes and booz.

Consider this.  You're a tanker and have wreckage tuned on.  There's a Panzer hulk between you and some enemies so you sneak in behind it to camoflauge yourself.  I'm one of the enemies.  I have wreckage turned off and what I see is you sitting in the open.

There's no doubt it would affect frame rate just as skid marks do on the track in a racing game but here even the lowest end computer will be forced to run these extra textures just to keep things even and they'd have to be there for everyone, whether you witnessed it or not.
