  1. Anti-tank donkeys, something tells me that won't be in the next medal of honor installment.
  2. What difference does it make? Everything. And even the original wasn't too shabby once the modding community came to life. Get off the bash cfs3 bandwagon, most people who hate it have either: 1. never gave it a chance in the first place. 2. Completely ignore mods and judge it by stock content. 3. Never even played it.
  3. Nope, they're all republicans here. However, I've seen and made much better jabs than that.
  4. IIRC they have Mig-29s too, those are a bit more difficult to handle. Now, who'll model the new bomb for the weapons pack? The important question: do they have he laser designator pods to use it properly?
  5. I doubt there will be much different. We really ought to lift that embargo, the cold war is over, communism is dead. If American tourists could travel freely and trade wasn't restricted, Cuba would be the hottest place in the carribean, much like it was before Castro took over.
  6. Don't laugh at CFS3. Even the IL2 crowd has been giving MAW a good rep.
  7. Bah! made up by authoritarians and neo-nazis themselves to discredit valid comparisons of political actions and views. Castro, is/was not quite up to that level yet, though no better than the typical Latin dictator and just as bad or worse than Battista.
  8. Indeed, Cuban, but from NY, plenty of relatives in FL though.
  9. You tripped and fell backwards trying to take a picture and your son was looking down in your face?
  10. He hasn't been seen in months, so he probably is. Won't make a difference for lifting the embargo.
  11. Yeah, I hate the pity and making a big deal out of things. Just a simple understanding of any shortcomings and not to hold it against me.
  12. So we couldn't even afford armor for the donkeys? Not the army you'd like to have.......
  13. Took them a while to find him I guess. Wasn't the F-86K canonless?
  14. Well hospital bills are absurd now. 2nd degree burns probably would be a million dollars, but IIRC she was an idiot and wasn't serious. But people know that's just a get rich quick scheme. Well with the current economy, I can't really blame them.
  15. No, but that's what the Darwin Awards are for.
  16. The F-4 doesn't have CCIP. Dive bombing is your best bet, I've never been able to level bomb without CCIP. The A-10 has it though.
  17. No such thing as normality, thats for sure.
  18. If we sent B-2s out past failsafe points they wouldn't even know it
  19. The sinister Mel Gibson defense. They give drivers licenses to anyone, and they shouldn't. I hate such careless drivers, and I get the bad reputation because young people drive faster. I can't tell you how many times I've almost been sandwiched or sideswipped by people not paying attention to what they're doing. Ok, I can understand accidentally hitting a person behind you in a wheelchair if they're below your field of vision looking back. But you stop, get out, call an ambulance and help her. Not keep going! How can you run a person over twice?! and then claim she had the right of way? I really hope she's facing serious charges.
  20. Well, if I had to bet, I think people would do more constructive work. Like when ketegeys first showed it off, he made an AI plane flyable, added 6DOF trackIR and let you get out of planes and run around ( INCREDIBLY useful, and realistic....I can't tell you how many times I've bailed out just over enemy lines, and was captured despite there being nothing between me and friendlies except a blue/red fence across the map) All constructive. Hopefully everyone will wind up happy.
  21. I think his name was tagert or something like that. windows and linux are entirely different. windows is a commercial product, whereas linux is an open source OS. Both the SFS and CAT extractor are 3rd party developed tools, kind of like winzip, but specialized for specific archive formats. Do you really think people will go through all the effort required to mod the game, just to cheat online? from the way things look, it's not just extract file, open in notepad, change and save. Poof! uber UFO P.11c! It looks like you have to decompile things in order to make any real changes besides things like sounds and textures. The average person won't be able to. people cheat to win and cheat because they don't want to put the effort in to win legitimately, why would they put more effort in to cheat than it would to just work up your skills? Also, the tiny bit of online playing I did when I ffirst got the game, people were already bitching about cheating....it wouldn't make a difference, people who lost will bitch about cheating because they didn't win even if there was no way to cheat. And shouldn't every server simply run those checks to validate files?
  22. It's not a matter of legality, its who likes and doesn't like it. If the SFS extractor was illegal, then so would be the CAT extractor, legality can't center around if someone encourages something or not. Maddox only resents it because his player base is psychotically against it. And yes it is possible, and really, why cheat? it's a freaking game! It's not like there's money being bet on these games or something. If you lose, it makes no difference to anyone, and if it does to the point you'd want to cheat, you're too immature to be playing a game online anyway. Or simply start your own server with all the realism settings turned off so you can fly however you want. And anything they don't like is a banable offense, they banned what's his name for studying the flight models and comparing them against real data to show the flight models weren't accurate.
  23. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. A college student off from classes makes for plenty of time to play and mod. No kids, no girlfriend, minor work around the houseand none of my friends around kind of make me look pampered. When thats not the case, and I'm busy with school (and that is really busy) I simply budget my time at home between games and work. I keep a little egg timer on an empty spot on the desk and set it to a half hour. Once it goes off, I switch between either research/writing on my laptop or reading and games.
  24. Well thats not rumor thats from the developers. They also are going to have stock only servers so people can play hassle free like IL2. What really got me was reading a year or so back was that the person who implements completed planes into the game only does the ones he likes and interested in, not what players want, even if its ready( like the fokker DXXI or CW-21 demon) and as we've seen from patches, his interests are apparently minor russian varients with tiny differences in engines, weapons and performance. Cheating online, yes some people will do it, but thats the same for anything. What they don't understand is the flight sim crowd appreciates realism. If you want to put six 30mm canons on a P.11 that goes 600mph, you probably fly the arcade types
  25. Piracy is allowing people who don't have the game to own it without paying for it (or use its content in another game), so modding a game really can't be considered piracy/illegal. Nor would a tool for modding, if the SFS extractor was piracy, then so would be the strike fighters CAT extractor. It's not a matter of legality, its who likes and doesn't like it. Stop and think for a second, if the IL2 online players weren't so vocal and psychotically obsessively paranoid about cheating, then some concern about compatability, there'd have been a huge modding community for IL2 long ago. SoW:BoB, they're going to support adding planes, maps etc. What you do with a game you've bought it is entirely up to you. If its on my hard drive I own it and nobody has the right to say I can't change it.
