  1. There is discrimination against the minority of human owning ATI cards. I suggest you and your fellows march to DC and make a speech : "I have a dream, that no human should be segregated for the type of graphic card they use ..."
  2. http://www.duffelblog.com/2014/09/china-jets-navy-flyby/ Maybe my favorite one : http://www.duffelblog.com/2013/06/call-of-jihad-video-game/
  3. When flying a Mirage, I usually fly high speed and use those large wings and high AoA capacities to turn very tightly while slowing down quickly to avoid overshoot. With a little experience, you can get in the right position, then shoot, then fly fast away (the Mirage accelerates very well at low angle of attack and slight descent) Typical hit and run tactics
  4. I agree : I so much would like to have a Viggen in the game that I sometimes donwload it and try it, then I am so disappointed that I delet it from my HD, until I again miss it strongly
  5. The original post was a joke, and I took it as is. What is interesting about Mexico is that the french higher authority basically believed they had won in the sens that they got what they wanted (money). They did not realize that the consequences were absolutly disastrous : - Relations with Austria, US ... - Useless attrition of the army - Bitterness of the army ... There are several such cases in history
  6. Hello Lot's of things can be said but indeed, what was mis interpretated was the purpose of the French Mexican war : it was "just business". Mexico was owing a very high debt to the European countries, so France decided to help in its recovery (mainly by looting Mexico's resources): They invaded Mexico, gave power to a puppet emperor, took their money, and when the war started to be too expensive, they left. There was no intent in staying long (unlike Algeria) and they wanted to spend as few money as possible to help for profitability. Mexico resistance and US oppositions were only important as far as they made occupation more expensive. It was a nice bargain for France and Europe in general. The real mistake in France was that they were not concentrating on Prussia and did not realize their military organization was obsolete. Edit : What is funny is that when you read french solidiers account on this war, you have the same feeling as when you read US accounts on Viet Nam war or ... Somalia They said they won but that stupid politician made them leave the country and lose the war.
  7. I love this website : http://www.duffelblog.com/2015/06/us-iran-nuclear-deal/
  8. Caudron G6 / R4 and R11 would be fun
  9. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2u2yby_star-wars-battlefront-gameplay-e3-2015_videogames But X-Wing pilots should imporve their tactics, see at 4 minutes !
  10. Back in the old French bashing time (2003), there was a similar text, but it was "serious" (or rather said : it was involuntarily funny)
  11. Great One of the most awaited plane !
  12. Can I donwload you by torrent ? Can I modify you and sell you ?
  13. Greg Swarz mecanician of the 48th Fighter Wing will recieve on Monday the "Legion d'Honneur" for his bravery during the Albacete crash (jan 2016). He and four other US soldiers (sargents Jonathan Mc Neely, Eli Gordon, John Escalante, and caporal Matthew Jeffers, who will be honored with the french medal of defense) rescued 4 french victims of the F16 crash. Congratulation and honnor to them http://lemamouth.blogspot.fr/2015/06/greg-swarz-un-heros-americain-suite.html
  14. I made the third mision : "highway to hell" The second is a milk run compared to the third. I must have restarted 3 or 4 times : Make battle groups with a nice variety of units and plan well your advance.
  15. This guy had a fantastic life
  16. RIP : Dracula is gone for good now Edit : a link = http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/christopher-lee-dead-live-updates--legendary-actor-passes-away-at-the-age-of-93-10312947.html
  17. I am trying the third mission of the campaign : it is very tough, I think I did not call enough reinforcement at the beginning and then dispersed myself attacking and trying to hold 2 positons at teh same time. I will retry with a more massive attack on my main objective
  18. Did this mission yestearday, I lost one Leopard and 1 SPz-II (another one being damaged)
  19. Reminds me Rolling Thunder
  20. You are right about SF2 modding For Il2, I stick to "mod packs" and HSFX7 works well : easy to download and install : indeed it is as easy to install HSFX7 from 4.12 than to upgrade 4.12 to 4.13 CUP is a little more complex to download, but is ok anyway Anyway, I am waiting for 4.13 + HSFX8.0 if ever
  21. I did not particularly wait for it : there are some interesting functionnalities, but it is far behind DBW, HSFX or CUP
  22. I am waiting : TD patchs usually require hotfixes
  23. I played the game few years ago and maybe I will have a newer look into it ?
