Lastima... una lastima...

Ditto. Oh well, can't win them all.

I just thought of a neat fantasy plane...Su-27XL. An Su-27 with a cranked-arrow delta like the F-16XL.

The F-16xl reminds me of when I was a kid looking through books and seeing the xl. There was also an F-16 with a pair of forward canards on the fuselage up front? or the FSW version? they would be sick mods.

The ASTI F-16 looked neat, but its main purpose was unusual flying, and you couldn't model that here. As such, other than being cool to look at, it would fly the same as the stock F-16s.

A patch is in the works, according to the devs. Likely to coincide with the US ship date, it seems. Or perhaps it will come out shortly after. Either way, many are in a "wait and see" holding pattern.

I'd like a good one for the PC, please! They can Wii Wii Wii Wii all the way home, but make more PC games!!

From what I hear, it sounds like this is NASCAR SimRacing 2, but on the 360 instead of PC.

No, you must not have the sound file referenced in the .ini for the gun sound. You can go into the .ini and change it.

Blk52...weren't those the ones with the Pratt & Worthless engines?

The M61A1 was designed with a very high ROF yet lower caliber than Eastern guns because it was realized that even with 20mm only 3-4 hits would be necessary to take out another fighter.

Thanks to the high ROF a plane crossing at 90 degrees in front of you would still be hit with 3-4 shells.

The Soviet philosophy was larger caliber, less bullets, slower ROF. That's why the MiG-29 has 30mm but only 150 rounds. Yet it's IRST and auto-gun made it possible to only fire 10 rounds and get multiple hits.

Anyway, what it boils down to is that Korea was the last war fought with .50s as a major weapon. Cannons tend to take planes down much faster.

That's too bad. I've been having a blast with ArmA MP twice a week.

M80 power? *POP*

Oh Lord, bless thy holy hand grenade...

AFAIK, bird ingestion has never happened on a 117 thanks to the grille covering the intakes. I don't know if it's possible or not.

"Your .ini is not in order."

"What do you mean my .ini is not in order?!?!"

Heh, I've always dreamed of seeing the F-108 in action.

However, planes come when they come.

You missed a rivet.

*choking motion*

You have failed me for the last...time...

I've lost track of how many planes I've run across with inaccurate performance in one area or another. Can't say I've seen anyone talk about the 104G to date, though.

However, there's no way the REAL 104G was that much slower. It might have had worse acceleration and a lower top speed, but AFAIK every 104 model did Mach 2+.

That's just a quirk of the board software...the uploader is listed as "author" even if that's not the case.

You can't change something as major as the nose profile with an .ini edit, no. That requires model alterations.

Well, part of the reason the show was so good was the 5 yr arc. It meant there was no filler, no aimless wandering. It also meant when it ended we were upset.

As for Farscape, I guess the cancellation of SG-1 freed up the stars again!

I would pay a good chunk of change for another game in the Wing Cmdr/X Wing/TIE Fighter/Freespace style of gameplay again.

I heard some people talking about this mod. I'm going to try it to see how it differs from the ones in GTL.

Unfortunately, we don't get a lot of LOMAC traffic here. That said, I've never tried this as I have my hands full with the planes already in the game.

A lot of people know the Dr.I and Camel. That will certainly help sales. As for "doubling up", well, you can always decide which one you like more and then just fly that one later.

That sort of hostility seems unwarranted...

Enter the world of chem/bio weapons. No physical damage, just takes out the troops.
