The KB obsession
Viggen replied to Crusader's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
It sounds like a good idea, but the stock new guy may only go in the beginners, and so on. If I were making the KB, I would have a section for the questions that are always asked. Also perhaps making a sticky at the General Discussion, Modding and Skinning, Campaigns and Missions, and Fictional and What if? saying to look at the KB before posting a problem and or question. Perhaps have rules for the CombatACE Third Wire forums that include these as well. Just my $.37 -
Air to air combat questions (mostly...)
Viggen replied to oded's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Perhaps your targets were already destroyed? I've had times where the Su-7s in WOI or the MiG-23s or MiG-27s in WOE crashed into the ground. I've got some fighters in a Mirage III at about .4 of a mile with guns. The R.530 is a Semi Active Radar Guided Missile. I believe the first to come from France. It is crap, so I don't use it. While I leave my drop tanks on in air to round combat, if you get rid of them you can turn better, and are faster. There isn't any major differences I have noticed, but in a Close Air Support Mission, I like to get rid of ALL enemy tanks before I leave just to make sure the grunts took the objective with out a platoon of T-62s still there. To check your six you can use the mirrors (activated at the settings page in the menu) or using F6 and looking around. -
Fine. I'll wish you a happy birthday...on your birthday. But only on the condition that I will never be called Viggy again! So happy eel birthday!

The KB obsession
Viggen replied to Crusader's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
When I first joined and asked a question, I never had a person asking me to use the KB. They answered my question and went off on there day. I can remember PMing Wrench a question (or 30) and he answered them all politely. Since the end of 2007 I have seen more "CHECK THE DAMN KB!" (admittedly I have asked people my self if they checked the old KB). Last week being a rather good example. Yes I can Imagen that it is a maintenance headache on the upkeep, but, at least keep your cool when talking about this stuff. I have found the KB to be unspecific to things, being more universal. Personally I found the old KB more helpful. Much rather than check several different areas to find what I need, I went a page or two back. Also just remember: The Search Button isn't very useful. Unfortunately and dare I say it, egos have started to become a problem once again. Mine included so don't call me a hypocrite. These could be a part of the problem. -

Well Craig, good luck on the Typhoon. You certainly have made the masses happy. May it continue to grow greater than it already is. And with that, I'm gone -

During the war, sidn't a MiG-23 pilot become a Hero of the Soviet Union for his act of flying his damaged Flogger into an AA gun to save his comrades? -
From what I can remember my history teacher telling me last year in 8th grade, it was some Germanic custom and that some member of the British Royalty liked the idea of a pine tree in there house and something about Hessian soldiers putting decorating a tree during the American Revolution and thats all I can remember in this run on sentence.

What about the Blimp idea? -
About 10 minutes ago I had this pop up when I tried to get on the web site. Then I also had another error saying something about too many connections.

Viggen replied to column5's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
This is nice. I'm always somewhat fragile with the early USN and USAF birds so I don't have any whining about the FM as of now. Can't wait to see an update of the 106. -

You could give the Hind about 10000 flares to avoid Stingers
