I'm not very computer savy but can anyone run the current graphic settings at max and still maintain a framerate above 40? I have a decent system and turn off much of the eye candy to keep the framerate at 60. With the demands of "both" can we really have it all? Until then I'm happy with subpar eye candy, excellent combat.

I got everything I can turned off  just to keep my frame rate in the and teens and twenties. So I don't care a hoot about graphic detail the ground and water all look like a 4 year old s finger painting to me anyhow.

  Go to school and learn Graphic Design, Start a Game company, Develope the best Flight sim ever made. Tweek your mistakes in programing. Attract and keep a client base meanwhile paying the bills and keeping the company afloat. Then you can sleep.  :aok

  Go for it!  :banana:

I was excited when PONG first came out. So for me the graphics here are just fine.....especially since the price to play this game hasn't changed in the 6+ years I've been playing.

i wonder if the OP is even running everything maxxed out to begin with?



Apparently not, I never seen Aces High with full graphics on for well over 5 years... maybe longer... until February of this year.

30 Inch screen with full graphics, I still get blown away by the skins.. Go from 1280x1024 to 2600x1600 - No graphics to full graphics.. You start to appreciate stuff quite more.
I used to always tank with NO terrain features on, no grass - can't see more then 1 mile or so? I mean it was horrible, pretty much I called it "arcade", and I didn't have a choice in it, if I turned terrain on my FPS would drop below 15 and It sucked.

I should dig into my laptop and get a few screenshots and show a nice comparison -its apples to oranges.

Same exact thing here, HIGH FIVE!

Hasn't HTC said that they can create graphics as good as in the likes of IL2 etc but by doing so would make the game unplayable for the majority of the customers here, and so they have settled on good (Not awsome) graphics and a larger player base?
Forgive me if I'm mistaken on this but I'm sure I've seen someone (Maybe Pyro) make this comment. I'd personally rather what they have now that a game with amazing graphics and about 100 people all in to fly with. I like finding fights atm.

if you want amazing graphics go play world of planes or warplanes  whichever one wot is spinning out.  then come back and play here and see the difference.  graphics look pretty good to me.

Semp,
I have a laptop only. I can't play on full settings. Wish I could. I've seen a few clips and it looks amazing. What I am saying is that we do not have the best graphics on the market. However nor do we have the best graphics HTC can create, simply because they wish to keep a larger player base over looking good. What use is a great looking game if no one can play it?
