Lockheed to supply 18 F-16s to Pakistan
sparkomatic replied to ghostrider883's topic in Military and General Aviation
Agreed...and as I said earlier, what is India so enraged? Arent you buying ex-Russian heavy bombers? You have nukes also, so why do you have them? Why does India need a blue water navy? Why does India get so worried about 30 year old fighters? You have hundreds and from nearly as many sources. Cant really compare selling F-14 to an ally, then by the glory of hindsight say it was bad...ask Chamberlain about Czechoslovakia now, dude. We make the same mistakes? Right. Because, as already mentioned, look at our options. Hey, I know you dont like Pakistan. But why doesnt India seek closer ties with the US? -

New strike fighter 2 in 2008 ?
sparkomatic replied to DamonSchumi's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Thanks C5, J/M...you seriously never noticed that when the game says "cool, here is a medal", that it never shows up in your pilot record? And do not even mention ejecting in this game to me...how long did that take to implement? What I am saying is simply every other game in this category does it...and it was mentioned more than once in the advertising...and as C5 mentions...can it really be that frakkin difficult? I am not asking for 42 new planes or the ability to cue a AIM-120 off data link, or heck, even a remotely plausible RED CROWN...but we (and you too by your own admission) are five frakkin years of time and money into this series...we stood by the patch-pains and we held the line at WhineHQ in support of this very excellent title. At this point, I am not even saying fix it...just remove them all together. And AI? Heck, give me back the patch 2 AI rather than this pre-patch-one quality just stay on the runway stuff. So, this is not a personal attack, J/M...just I honestly do not see your angle...hey, I support TK and always have, it is not personal...it is just take the silly things out then if they are so impossible to implement. It is not just 5 years...it is 5 titles...and they still do not work...and really, I am about ready to bet the rent money that when WOI or WOX or Whatever is released then they, given the trends, might not work then either. And speaking of "personal attacks"...I never noticed how quickly some people are to hurl spears in this community at each other..."seagulls at the end of the bar"...dudes...really...this is not "Johny-One-Post" here asking for a "Vatour" when the damn thing was in the very thread that he asked for a "Vatour"... Maybe we do need to step back and think about what it is we are discussing here. It is a game...a leisurely activity meant to be, you know, fun. I really laugh at the ThirdWire forums these days..."TK we need F-22 and F-36 and the flight dynamics are all wrong"...it is sad. I still like the asking for more airplanes when people announce a new airplane released...that never tires. Do they actually even enjoy the aforementioned ride? It is like a friend of mine says, "it aint the havin', its the gettin' that's fun". Maybe that is what some people want, like MSFS where you can go and find literally thousands...and what do they do with them? - "you do it for your damn country"...nice, very nice... cheers -

my muiltplayer hung when i add new aircraft
sparkomatic replied to kh606fp's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
yep...it helps to start with the basic, no add-on game and go on-line with that...then, with coordinated effort add just one or two ensuring that you have an identical match...period. or you could tie two cans together by strings and sit in the same room -
Lockheed to supply 18 F-16s to Pakistan
sparkomatic replied to ghostrider883's topic in Military and General Aviation
really? what are 12 F-16's going to do? Especially, given your location, against the Indian AF? Maybe 120 I would take notice... -

Follow this link... http://modelingmadness.com/reviews/viet/jacksonf4d.htm tells the story...then http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Air_Force_Academy it sits in the Terrazzo, near the Dining Facility (mess hall...I know...it sounds ghey) actually there is a very excellent skin of "66-7463" for SFP1, before anyone asks -

Zuni smoke marker rocket
sparkomatic replied to echoco's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion

sparkomatic replied to DamonSchumi's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
"I agree. I think that it isn't about metal discs that go on the chest, it's about serving the damn country, that's why you join the service!" - actually, since I have been in the Service, I have noticed myriad reasons why people join. Maybe in the movies or bad TV dramas people all join for Mom and Apple Pie, but reality can deviate. Not that it makes it any less noble nor the sacrifices demeaned, just different. - my family has served this country since before the civil war...it is not a job, it is duty... - Again, the point of the post was that a company marketed an element of a product which they sold, and then did not provide as marketed...further, it is a repetitive ordeal...that is the point -

sparkomatic replied to DamonSchumi's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Dudes...honestly I appreciate your patriotism and bravado...really...but maybe you miss my point...now... if you advertise something in a product...then do not put it in said product...what do we call that? seagulls perched at the end of a bar? no...not the word... if every other example of a product that you sell offers something...and yours does not...what do we call that? no, not "for serving your country" dudes...I actually am an aviator...in the military...and I have been in combat (though during an Army co-op tour, not in the air since...lets see...oh yeah they didnt fly against us this time) so, please save your chest thumping and patriotism...and let us discuss that the ads for the game mentioned winning medals...I have been a loyal ThirdWire supporter since like 5 years...and each game says the same thing...and does the same thing really dudes, I expected better from you and if we ever meet at a bar, I will buy you a beer -

given the USAF's disdain for heroes, I am surprised they put that one in the museum...must have slipped by the curator and we all know what happened to the highest scoring Phantom...it should be there instead -
WOE...anti-ship missions
sparkomatic replied to sparkomatic's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
- nope...it starts in the middle of Germany and immediately Red Crown announces "mission accomplished"...but when I exit, the mission results screen says "aborted" right under mission success - again, the Super Etendard was not going to out run an MiG-31, so do not think speed or time of service was an issue - Alaska terrain for WOE? wait a minute -
