I actually complemented TK on his vision, I didnt say anything good about LOMAC, instead I was hoping someone on UBI might pick up this post as words of warning. I know its been postponed 4 times, as I've said many times on this forum, "It doesnt matter how long it takes it to come out, just as long as it does come out, and it comes out in reasonable working order." I've never judged TK's character, I simply said that past performance is a measuring stick for future products, one would hope that the level of satisfaction would go up, but in SF's case it has gone down. I have made attempts to make the game better, me and Weasel (a beta tester for SF), exchanged (its in one of his posts somewhere) a little on how to help get mp running, everytime the mp actually works (rarely, but when it does) I post how I got it to work. I'm not a modder, or a skinner, and I sure as hell am not a game expert, but I am a consumer, and that gives me the right to gripe, piss and moan, or sing the praises of a product. As is, if SF does get working at or before the LOMAC release date, I will probably be flying SF more, because I dont see much in LOMAC for me outside of the graphics. I dont like Air Force planes, and the two Russian planes I do like are not in the game, so LOMAC will probably get limited play from me, FB would probably be a better buy in my opinion. Gecko I appreciate you post, it was well thought out, and well written. Cheers, Jay

Coming along nicely... keep up the magnificent work.

Did you even look at the link? I think you missed what my statement meant. Jews are considered to be of a different race, some call them hebrews or Israelites. But if you are trying to turn this into some sort of racial discussion, then there are only 3 "real" kinds of Human Beings, and it comes from bone structure, not skin color, religion, language, or anything else visible to our senses. Notice: we are all human's, nothing will ever change that, and no one will ever be able to take that away from another. The reason why I involved the jewish bit, is because of my correlation between my mother and "Jew", and how no one else other than my mother or those in her circle of friends, would have sent out such an email (to me). Therefore, I submitted to you a link, not on my Anglo-American "Whitey" behalf, but on the behalf of the Global Jewish Community. And isnt it nice to know that there is one country left that believes in action, instead of reaction, and/or anticipation which is then followed by twidling of thumbs.

OOOH! I just saw all the other sh*t you can click on, on each page, be sure to check it out, good stuff for you pilot types.

I'm not a Jew, but my mom thinks she is, so she sent this to me. It's really quite good... especialy the end of the flash presentation. http://www.alisrael.com/tamuz/

Does this, no dynamic campaign mean that, the russians will always win?

I would agree, past performance is not a pardon for current shortcomings. As I've said before, this game is one of the few black marks on the Strategy First name.

I never said it was big. :?

And it will be playable on UBI... thank god, no more stablility problems.

Just read your post on Freelancer, so I get the space bit now. Maybe try something eclectic, something that shows all of your gaming expertise.

Honestly... the first one is kinda cheesy, not because of the artwork, but because G.I. Joe is had. Second one is a little over the top, kinda spacy. I like the one you have now, maybe you could change it a little bit if you dont like it, maybe add a missle comin off the rail, or show a kill of yours. Just some ideas, no need to take offense.

I thought the Sukhoi Su-33 was in the game, unless of course they cut it.

It's no use trying anymore, I cant join games, the voice comm usually f*cks up the game, and even if I do get in a game that actually works, it crashes after about 15 minutes, and then its a trial to get it back up and running. I only play 3 games online, and SF seems to be the most imcomparably sh*tty mp game ever created (atleast it is for me). IL2 runs f*ckin beatifully with a room full of people (and I'm running 56k), Ghost Recon kicks ass, with however many people. I'm not really complaining, I'm simply making a statement. Whenever patch 2 comes out, it better fix all of the bugs (and I mean every single one), otherwise I'm sure I wont be the only one using this cd for a coaster, or even as a frisbie. I love the F-4, and I love the single play (now), and I've heard rumors of an A-6 in the works( :D ), but as of my last few days of trying to get the game to work in mp, I really am starting to lose all respect for this game. I admire the vision that TK had, in creating a game for this time period, and I admire all of the hard work that the modders, and skinners, have done for this game, but I'm just beginning to wonder if all of the effort has been in vane. It's saddening to me to see such a sh*tty product be put out on the market, but it is becoming the norm for all games now. I find it to be revolting, to see that a company can just say to themselves "hey, we can just put the product out the way it is, and then patch it whenever". I hope that someone on UBI picks up this thread, and uses it as words of warning. It doesnt matter how long it takes LOMAC to come out, just make sure that it is atleast 95% complete when it does come out, and that missing 5% better not be MP SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I dont know how long my vacation, from the stress of attempted MP in SF, will be, but I will say that it is a much needed one. For now it will sit on my CD shelf in the shadow of such games as IL2, Rogue Spear, Ghost Recon (and its Xpacks), Madden 2003, Tropico, and even the horrid NHL 2003 (it may not look that good, but atleast it doesn't crash, and it didnt take a year to come out with a patch). All of the games listed above, work perfectly, or atleast at an acceptable level, and that was before they were patched. I may continue to fly my single player missions, but I will not be making an overwhelming effort in mp anymore, until I hear some real, concrete, resounding complements of patch 2.

Im runnin the GeForce 4, with 64mb and DVI, love it, love it, love it, I just need more memory, and a faster processor, of course you could always get a 128mb :D , god I knows I wish I could.

ill probably have to try again in like a week, gotta buy a mixer... thinking maybe a Pioneer DJM 500 they run for like 400 on Ebay. Then there's always vinyl, and you can buy like 5 records for the cost of a carton. Its cool savage, Fast Eagle, has only recently quit, with his life in the balance and all. Just dont let it slide for too long, or atleast cut back, like me, its helpin me out in the cash dept. alot.

That'll do, Dave, that'll do. :D

Whoa!!! Ranger comes through again!!! I dont know what half that sh*t means, but it must be good. Dagger... a banjo...? Well, its no worse than turntables.

Now if only they could make the Legacy as fast and have the same (or better range) than the Gulfstream G-550. But the Legacy is a much sexier plane than any other biz jet, and I havent really seen any military mods for Gulfsteams.

I didnt hear the speech, could you list some high points for me?

Dude did you get enough cash saved up for the HOTAS Cougar? I didnt quit completely, but.... 3 weeks of not smoking allowed me to save up like another hundred bucks, and my turntables should be on the way, within the next week. I'll probably have to end up quitting again, and again, and again. But I will, I've promised my lungs. Cheers, Jay post some pics of that Phat Cougar when you finally get it, I still dont know what one looks like.

Where did this gem come from? I had no idea anybody was making it. Ooooh.... Embraer, they got a new Biz Jet out, think its named the "Legacy", but not to sure, just know my dad had a poster he brought back from some aviation vendors conference, what a magnificent plane. God just think if they could combine everything into Italo-Brasilian, you get the incredibly chic with the Italian, and the oh so sexy with the Brasilian. THIS PLANE IS A MUST.... please make it available ASAP :D :D :D Cheers, Jay

Also, buy large hoop earings for your wives, and lots of hair spray. I just hope they dont bring back the early 90's, the horror of grunge, I cant believe I used to dress that way. Oh and 80's is cool, but late 70's is even better, if you are out clubbin that is, but tight pants and oversized collard shirts may not be such a good idea in the midwest. Oh god I'm getting memories of my last trip to South Beach, blissful madness. :D :twisted:

Well done, damnit if I could add clapping hands I would. BTW I knew the answer, but I was just hoping somebody else knew it, maybe one of your guys wife's had to get the injection, that would have been cool (kinda). I will most certainly remember this bit for the test, hopefull there will be like 50 questions of nothing but crap on RH+-, but I doubt it. Well done again Cowboy, well done!!!

I think you should run, most (well the ones that want to win) always move to the center. Ex: Lil' Bush is a fanatical Conservative Chrisian, but that doesnt get the votes that "Compassionate Conservative" gets. Im pro war aswell... sometimes, everytime I think of Iraq or what I would do to France this little wavfile from "Stronghold" comes to mind "Burn them, Burn them all!!!", its an Engineer pouring boiling oil over the enemy... gruesome game. Speaking of, does anybody want to make a mod for the F-4 so that we may stick Napalm on our AA mounts... the more, the merrier.

Iraq?
