Honestly, announcing he's working on AH4 would be more beneficial than keeping it a secret.

Dx12 is taking over the gaming world.  Even iracing is switching to dx12.

The problem is how many current players would be priced out due to low performing PC equipment if AH went to a better graphics engine.

Too many most likely..

Graphics isn't the issue for me, it's 3 sided maps with 2 sided numbers of players...

And how many of them are going to have screen glitches? IMO, that is almost detrimental to AH for many.

Sure you can switch to Dx9, but most probably dont know to reach out or figure that out.

I'm running DX12 now and I don't have any issues. In the beginning I did have to go into my Nvidia control panel and tweek a few things.  :salute
