Ahem... LOMAC is essentially Flanker 3.0. I think it was at one time going to be called Flanker 3.0 "Flanker Attack".

Just tell yourself that there is no more patches, and then when it does come you will crap your pants and be ultra happy about it. Repeat after me. "There are going to be no more patches". Cheers, and enjoy the wait Mista Saffell

GAYNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1st person in madden is; you just dont pick the play (you are just a player), but you dont get to see through a players eyes. I say this as someone who has had every single Madden game since '93... GO BUY SOMETHING ELSE UNLESS YOU LIKE PLAYING THE OWNER MODE LIKE ME, because not a whole lot has changed, except fro adding new moves, and sharper graphics, and a deeper playbook... That vid really makes me want that 1st person view.

Hmm... Madden has 1st person view too... I think... I havent checked it out yet, it also has coach mode (just calling plays). And the offseason is 10 times better than it was last year. Do me a favor, and tell me how good the owner mode is in ESPN. Oh madden now has training camp in the offseason so you can actually use those damn drills to improve your players. But ESPN looks better, and I think the titties bounce on the cheerleaders :D Note: Worst thing about Madden football..... IS JOHN MADDEN WONT SHUT THE F*CK UP!

I dont consider myself to be religious, but I do believe in examining religion, and all of them teach that one will pay for his actions in this life or the next... act like a sh*thead, and you will end up living in sh*t. And vica versa.

JESUS! I first learned of it from the inside of IL2... it says Sping 2002. Well atleast it's safe to say that a lot of people have been waiting for a very very long time, and nobody's bitchery has made a dent in the release date... well maybe the PR dept. of UBI

Ya I saw the VF-143 mug, but I'm lookin for something for pops. I think they have a bunch of patches for VF-111 and USS Coral Sea, and they have a mug for USS Coral Sea, and some other seller has that lighter I was talkin about, but it needs flint and the wheel is jammed on it, and I dont know how to fix that. I looked for USS Oriskany stuff too, but I think my dad would rather have CV 43 stuff, since it was his favorite boat, and VF-111 holds a special place in his life, but all they have is patches, and he doesnt have much need for those.

No screens yet???????

Yes, 2 months is not a big deal anymore. I've given up on set dates, infact I'd rather them stop stringing us along, and just release it out of the blue. Good God they are already a year behind from their initial estimates, so it's not like any of us that have been following this game from the beginning can really feel hurt by not getting a demo. And if you are devastated about not having a demo... well find something else, becuase tears and complaints wont make the LOMAC fairy pay you a special visit. Cheers, Jay

Well there's a thought. Actually I was playing some guy on EA Matchup with NHL 2003, a while back, and I had like 5 goal lead, then I blew it, but not becuase he was worth a damn (he used auto aim, and you can pull off some really really cheesy goals that way). I ended up losing like 8-7, when the game closed and we were sitting on the exit screen, he kept calling me a whinny loser, and then he started calling me a N***** over and over again, and I'm not even black. Telling me that I shouldnt be playing hockey cause it was a white man's game. All I had to say to him was, ya it takes real skill to let the computer do all the work. But why the outrage and hatred??? I just know that I would kick the sh*t out of anyone that called me that or even called anyone around me that (in that context). I really really despise idiocy, and immaturity. So yes I do agree, that flight simmers tend to have a higher code of conduct, but we do have our undesireables. Thankfully we can usually root them out here. Once, again thank you MJ for having "RULES", and thanks to the rest of the Biohaz community for atleast acting professional, but at the same time not being anal. I think the overall tone of our group here, keeps some of the wilder ones from getting out of control.

YOU CAN DO IT EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEBAY! Just search for the item # and then click on the sellers other stuff... as if anyone with a PC doesnt know how to use eBay

This guy has all kinds of little stuff like patches, and hats, and pins, and lighters, even some old uni's. I'm thinkin about gettin pops the Coral Sea Zippo... but it's messed up

Yes, and just think if we can institute Carrier Ops! I wonder if that will be available in mp.

I'm interested in what kind of air defense the Navy can put up (apart from aircraft). Specifically I wanted to see the PHALANX System in action. Maybe you could sacrifice yourself for a nice screen?

Hmm.... I think I'll be going with my Central Florida (Tampa Bay) Bucs... How bout a college football pool??? Guess who'd I'd pick 8) When are you planning on forming this, anyway?

Well didya, cause it looks different.

I didn't know he was in demand. Didn't he win an award for some sh*tty homemade movie??? I dont know, I dont watch award shows... except for the NHL awards.

As I've said before (on the LOMAC forum), we (the hardcore freaks) are not the ones that bring in all the cash. We are the ones that provide that initial boost sales. Just look at SF, people are still buying it (not many, but a few). They need to market this game to the fullest, and not kill it with a premature demo release. After all, wouldnt you like to see a few hundred perhaps thousand new simmers playing online? LOMAC is our best hope for preserving flight sims. If it does well, perhaps we will see future instalments in the LOMAC line, and hopefully a few more comanies will spend money on our genre. Now if ED was ready to send out the Final product in November, then I would be all for it, but they are not ready, and they may delay it again (I hope not). So releasing the demo to please a couple thousand hardcore posters does not make sense on a grand scale. One more thing, the fact that the previews were handed out, should be good enough for us hardcore peeps. Atleast now we get more first hand info on the game, and get to request some screens, and vids. Once again, the posters on the forums have already signed on for LOMAC, and they dont need the DEMO to persuade their pocket books. I see some people talkin smack over on other forums, about how they wont be buying the game, and that might stay true for a little bit, but eventually that little box is going to ware on those people and they will end up buying it. And even if a small minority of idiots still refuse to buy LOMAC, I dont think UBI's gonna sweat'em at all. As for me, as a college student, a DEMO does not sway my opinion on whether or not to buy a game... I'll be wondering if not eating for a week is worth a new game... I'm still feeling the hole in my account from buying the new madden. Cheers, Enjoy the wait Mista Saffell Noles-37, Heels-0

Somebody wanna get a screen of my hometown (Melboure FL), its just south of the cape, I'd say a minute or 2 south in full AB with an F-14, or you could fly out of Melbourne International, fly north like 30 secs from airport and my house should be right there. PS: Melbourne is on the West side of the intercoastal waterway by the cape.

They have a whole list of aircraft that are up for future addition. Copied from www.lo-mac.com Will there be additional flyable aircraft for Lock On? No. We are striving for detailed modeling of each flyable aircraft and there are only so many we can do and maintain a high quality standard. Our list of flyable aircraft is frozen for the initial release. The addition of more flyable aircraft for future Lock On products is being given serious consideration Return to Top What AI-only aircraft will be included? In addition to the eight flyable aircraft, 50 AI-controlled aircraft will be included. These aircraft are all modeled in exacting detail and include accurate weapon payloads and flight dynamics. These aircraft include the: *F-16C *F-4E *F-5E *F-14A *F/A-18C *S-3B *F-117 *B-1B *B-52H *Mirage 2000-5 *Tornado IDS *KC-10 *E-3 *E-2C *C-17 *C-130J *AH-64A *AH-64D *AH-1W *UH-60 *UH-1 *CH-47 *SH-60 *SH-3 *MiG-31 *MiG-25P *MiG-25R *MiG-23ML *MiG-27 *Su-17M4 *Su-24 *Su-30 *Su-34 *Su-39 *Tu-22M3 *Tu-95 *Tu-160 *A-50 *IL-78 *IL-76 *An-26B *An-30M *Tu-142 *Ka-50 *Ka-52 *Mi-24D *Mi-8MT *Mi-26 *Ka-27 [/color] It's been my understanding that the F-18 is up for consideration, because there has been some bitching about not having US carrier ops (I've bitched too), and it's not to hard to imagine the Tornado being added or the Mirage (maybe to satisfy UK or French demands), but that is just pure speculation, but it seems logical from a basic customer relations POV. Cheers, Jay

Future punchline to a lawyer joke

It rains almost everyday, and when it doesn't its like 95 degrees. Also, first week of school was a bitch. <C>

I just think its kind of sad to see this level of maturity being shown on the boards. It's just a game, and dont think everybody who's bitching is some 13 year old kid; I bet half of the people whinning are guys in there 30's and 40's. I really do not think the demo should be leaked; it would hurt the standing of the DEV Team with UBIsoft. Personally I do not know where people get the time to bitch like this.... christ its the end of week one of classes and I have 300 pages of crap to read. People just need to find something else to do. I have a lot of video games, but they are more of a substitute for TV during down time, and that is all LOMAC will be for me, unless it is such a phenomenal game that I want to give up all life outside of my room.... and this isnt likely. So all I have to say to some of these people is doing something else, play another game (Madden 04 is out, and its good), go to the beach if you can, Bar B Q, go get sh*tfaced, just do something and stop bitching about some demo being pushed back a couple of weeks (if you had a life outsided of flightsims.... like a job or something, then a month will fly by, and before you know it the final product will be here). Cheers, Jay Note: Not intended as a reply to this thread, just my feelings on the matter.

God there are some d*cks over there. I almost forgot why I havent even been to another sim site (besides this one) in like 8 months. It's sad to see the LOMAC board stoop to the IL2 level, but it was bound to happen. Take a trip over there, and read the hate and angst and you will see why this is the only site worth coming to when it comes to LOMAC. Thanks again MJ for not being a c*ck.

I think its just a massive Meth epedemic in the sim community. See they are anxious, and unnerved, and in a general state idiotic frenzy. Either that or some people just need to find something a little more stable to lean their lives against. As we have seen, there are weirdo's in our midst. Note: the meth thing is a joke. But people really just need to chill, and go outside or something.
