with off3 and track ir on its way, time to seriously consider a new system.
this could be all just a pipedream, but have to start thinking about it eventually.

Keep in mind, this is all for mulitiplayer, and I can deal with reduced graphics, the problem I need to resolve is the loss of control of my aircraft near to the ground, and reduced aircraft performance in the multiplayer game overall. FYI the 2 computers i play on now are 2gig pc3200, 256 pci and agp p4's 2.4 and 2.93c.

I really dont want to put together something with great expectations, only to find out most if not all of the problems i/(we) are having are primarily due to internet connections.

I am aware of the fact I am missing out on a whole new world of improved graphics, scenery, effects, etc etc, and there is no doubt the improvement in the ai in off3 would make quick combat a more desirable option, but, always have been, and always will be a rb3d addict, and would really like to get back into that arena again. Nothing beats playing against real people.

So, any input anyone can give as to what improvements I may expect in multiplayer with a new system, and what improvements i probably wont get would be greatly appreciated.
 
Hi Duck
I'm not an expert on this subject and wouldn't go as far as to tell you upgrading will solve these problems. I did have some experience when upgrading helped to kill that lag issue I was having when playing my favorite fps on remote servers. It took 2 years 2 cpu's and 3 video cards to make it go away. I was pretty sure my ISP was to blame but the latest video card I bought specifically for OFF did it. LOL. I'd say try upgrading gradually and see how it goes.
OFF visuals worth upgrading anyways. :ernae: see you in the sky
 
I'd drop a PM to somebody who flies on-line all the time, but as far as I know. You need above 2 ghtz, but that's it. Until the CFS3 server gets restored to life ( Microsoft ain't doing it . .No profit )

You have exactly two chances of bringing back the RB3D action.

SLIM and NONE :ernae:

oh,,,dont get me wrong,,,,off2 is a great replacement for rb3d. Its just the mp i miss.
