Aces High, the Combat Simulator Sensation, Introduces New Version

Changes are all about ease of play and realism.

Aces High, the Combat Simulator Sensation, Introduces New Version
2011-06-22
FORT WORTH, TX, June 22, 2011 (Press-News.org) Since 2000, Aces High has been the leader of the pack in flight simulation games. One reason is that HiTech Creations does not believe in standing pat with what they have created. Over the years more than 37 different versions of this wildly popular World War 2 flight simulator game have been introduced and this new version is far and away the best.

While other companies tinker around with four or five different games, in effect watering down the attention given to any one game, HiTech Creations founder Dale Addink has always believed that the concentration of talent and efforts on one game is the best approach, and this new version of Aces High is proof that Dale's approach is right on.

In the latest version of this combat simulator the vehicle control system has been overhauled. Vehicles can now be controlled by a combination of keyboard and mouse, making a joystick optional. This is great news for first-time players who don't have a joystick; it gives them the opportunity to jump right into the action with ease and confidence with this new mouse-friendly version. In addition, the keyboard and mouse controls duplicate that of most first person shooter-style games and that also adds to the ease for a new player just getting started.

The second major change is with regards to tanks. They have now been given a new commander's position that gives the player the capability of controlling multiple crew positions simultaneously. In the past a player could only control one tank crew task at a time; now you can control the tank, turret, main gun, hull gun, and scan for targets, all at the same time. This is a quantum leap in technology for war games and it promises additional challenges and will push the player to a new level in skill.

But that's not all! All tanks have switched from using a generic tank sight and reticle to a historically based sight with varying magnification, field of view, optical clarity, and reticles. This is so realistic that you will swear you are reincarnated as a M4 Sherman commander in Patton's elite 4th Armored Division, doing battle against the best Panther commanders in the Rhine Valley and leaving destroyed enemy tanks in your wake.

World War 2 games currently on the market have just seen the standard of excellence raised to a new level. Try the free two-week download but be warned: once you try Aces High prepare for your life to be drastically changed.

ABOUT HITECH CREATIONS: Founded in 1999 upon the belief that making one extraordinary game is better than making several mediocre games, CEO Dale Addink developed Aces High, the multi-player flight sim game that has thrilled hundreds of thousands of gamers over the years. Aces High continues to lead the market in thrills and challenges and is constantly being updated to offer new challenges for the new and experienced World War 2 combat simulator audience.

UC Riverside neuroscientists' discovery could bring relief to epilepsy sufferers

UC Riverside neuroscientists discovery could bring relief to epilepsy sufferers
2011-06-22
RIVERSIDE, Calif. – Researchers at the University of California, Riverside have made a discovery in the lab that could help drug manufacturers develop new antiepileptic drugs and explore novel strategies for treating seizures associated with epilepsy – a disease affecting about two million Americans. Neurons, the basic building blocks of the nervous system, are cells that transmit information by electrical and chemical signaling. During epileptic seizures, which generally last from a few seconds to minutes and terminate spontaneously, the concentrations of ions both ...

Non-coding RNA has role in inherited neurological disorder -- and maybe other brain diseases too

Non-coding RNA has role in inherited neurological disorder -- and maybe other brain diseases too
2011-06-22
A team of scientists, led by researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine, have uncovered a novel mechanism regulating gene expression and transcription linked to Spinocerebellar ataxia 7, an inherited neurological disorder. The discovery promises to have broad ramifications, suggesting that abundant non-coding transcripts of ribonucleic acid (RNA) may be key players in neurological development and function, and could be powerful targets for future clinical therapies. The research, headed by Albert La Spada, MD, PhD, chief of the division ...

Acrobatics for anyons: New test for elusive fundamental particle proposed

2011-06-22
In quantum physics there are two classes of fundamental particles. Photons, the quanta of light, are bosons, while the protons and neutrons that make up atomic nuclei belong to the fermions. Bosons and fermions differ in their behavior at a very basic level. This difference is expressed in their quantum statistics. In the 1980s a third species of fundamental particle was postulated, which was dubbed the anyon. In their quantum statistics, anyons interpolate between bosons and fermions. "They would be a kind of missing link between the two known sorts of fundamental ...

Angry online commenters can cause negative perceptions of corporations, MU researchers find

2011-06-22
COLUMBIA, Mo. -With the increasing pervasiveness of social media and online communication in the operation of most organizations and corporations, little is known about the potential effects of public expressions of anger displayed throughout various online sources. Now, researchers at the University of Missouri have found that angry user-generated comments on Internet sites can further perpetuate negative perceptions of an organization undergoing the crisis. Based on her findings, Bo Kyung Kim, a doctoral student in the University of Missouri School of Journalism, urges ...

Planning is key to a healthy and happy retirement, studies find
2011-06-22
COLUMBIA, Mo. –Retirement is often viewed as a time to relax, travel, participate in leisurely activities and spend time with family. However, for many older adults, chronic health problems and poor planning often hinder the enjoyment of retirement. Now, a University of Missouri researcher has found that planning for changes in lifestyle and health leads to better retirement for married couples. Angela Curl, an assistant professor in the School of Social Work, says it is important for couples to plan for retirement, both financially and socially and to consider the changes ...

UC San Diego researchers create tool to put the lid on solar power fluctuations

2011-06-22
How does the power output from solar panels fluctuate when the clouds roll in? And can researchers predict these fluctuations? UC San Diego Professor Jan Kleissl and Matthew Lave, a Ph.D. student in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the Jacobs School, have found the answer to these questions. They also have developed a software program that allows power grid managers to easily predict fluctuations in the solar grid caused by changes in the cloud cover. The program uses a solar variability law Lave discovered. The finding comes at a time when the ...

First genetic mutation linked to heart failure in pregnant women

2011-06-22
Researchers at the Intermountain Medical Center Heart Institute in Salt Lake City have identified the first genetic mutation ever associated with a mysterious and potentially devastating form of heart disease that affects women in the final weeks of pregnancy or the first few months after delivery. The disease, peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM), weakens a woman's heart so that it no longer pumps blood efficiently. The disease is relatively rare, affecting about one in 3,000 to 4,000 previously healthy American women. Most PPCM patients are treated with medicine, but about ...

U of M researchers find smart decisions for changing environmental times

2011-06-22
You've just been told you're going on a trip. The only problem is, you don't know where you're going, how you'll be traveling, or what you'll do when you get there. Sound like a wild ride? It's the one our planet is on right now. As land use, human population, consumption and atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations change at an unprecedented pace with complex and unpredictable interactions, it's anybody's guess where we'll end up or what we can do to ensure the most favorable outcome. Recognizing that "guess" is not good enough when talking about the viability of ...

Picky pollinators: Native bees are selective about where they live and feed

2011-06-22
INDIANA DUNES NATIONAL LAKESHORE, Ind. —Native bees – often small, stingless, solitary and unnoticed in the flashier world of stinging honeybees – are quite discriminating about where they live, according to U.S. Geological Survey research. The study found that, overall, composition of a plant community is a weak predictor of the composition of a bee community, which may seem counterintuitive at first, said USGS scientist and study lead Ralph Grundel. This may be because specialized plant-bee interactions, in which a given bee species only pollinates one plant species ...
