Hmmm. So I guess everyone is resigned to the idea that SCS won't be making any further additions to DW themselves? I know they'd been pretty firm about people NOT doing that very thing originally.

Those who do not learn from history are bound to spend untold hours in 3dMax recreating it!

If an enemy plane gets close enough to an AWACS that it's in AIM-9 range, you have already so lost...

I've been posting since 1991 with regularity, albeit some years more than others. Having 2000 here in 3 years and 28000 on SimHQ in 8 plus posting on places like Delphi, Prodigy, and CompuServe, I think my number must be 50k or more.

I remember when there was talk of cancelling the F-22 it was brought up time and again that it would directly impact the costs of the F-35 program because F-22 development, paid for in that program, would be "gimmes" to the F-35 program and help keep it cheaper. Cancelling the f-22 meant the F-35 would have to pay for those developments.

Now instead the main problem the F-35 faces now is...cost. There's really no doubt they'll get the F-35 series working well and combat effective. The question is how much will the unit cost be and will the various countries that have pledged to buy X number be ABLE to buy that many? If they don't, the unit cost will increase more, leading to even fewer bought, which will increase the cost more, and the circle continues...

Wait, I thought that right gear pod was always black on the A-10A?

Ugghhh Iron Eagle (Shudders). Used to love that movie when I was a kid and I actually thought that the Kfir they used was a Mig-23 until I really got into aircraft.

My favorite was the crap in Iron Eagle 2. "The Soviet MiG-29 is larger and heavier than your F-16..." and in come these old F-4s LOL!

Yeah, ORI's do suck, but apparently AFSPC has the easiest as long as you're not a nuke wing.

LOL, stock Su-27 can carry more fuel than the empty weight of an F-16...how much more does it need??

To clarify, does this replace the '06 wep pack totally ie after a reinstall you need only install this now?

That's not what it says here: http://www.forum.maricosom.net/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=450

I'd say there's a good chance for summer 09. Bay has stated he's "at work" on it, but I don't know if that means anything besides generic pre-production work.

Probably because Hornets are hands-down the worst plane ever created.

Funny how many countries like Finland and Switzerland bought them then.

Yeah, and they COULD hang AMRAAMs off C-17s, too, but I don't think it's very likely.

Really? Jennifer Connelly is one of my continuing research projects...I don't want to trade.

You know, I never played any of the previous games. So, I've never really cared about DNF coming out at all.

I guess every milestone is important to someone!

I never played any version of EF2k online, so I wouldn't notice!

I noticed...Mr. What do you mean medals havent updated in the pilot record section in 5 years...

 

 

Exchange "chaos" for "class."

The Berkut was the Russian version of the X-29...it was an FSW tech demonstrator made from parts of existing planes (in their case a Flanker).

I'd like to see the MiG 1.44 in production version, actually!

Mmmmm...8 tracks...

At least it won't shoot back.

Only coop. I got burned out on stupid MP in games about 5 years ago.

From around the time of Q3A's release in early 2000 until around 2003 I spent time online in games like MOHAA, RTCW/ET, BF1942/DC, BFV, ST:EF, NOLF1/2, Joint Ops/Escalation, Jedi Outcast, and Jedi Academy. I might have forgotten a couple...

Anyway, by 2004 it seemed like all the "normal" players were gone. All you had were the clans and the cheaters (sometimes embodied in the same group!) and the fun was gone. Every attempt I've made since then in playing MP like that has had the same experience, including most recently Red Orchestra.

Now all I want is good coop for playing alongside a few people I know. Give me the ability to have up to 8 people vs AI and I'm good. I was driven off by the mass immaturity of public servers and I'm not going to bother joining some clan.

Hello, Cheaty McCheater. Hello? Don't be so gullible, McCheater!
