    Standoff Episode 2 - certainly not disappointing

    Not a bug, no. If you recall WC2, only /some/ of the ship had ITTS, while some others didn't. The ferret? It didn't, from what I recall. So you can see why the Stilletto is more useful that is smaller counter-part. Also added a bit more challenge, we'd like to think. ;) Episode three should...

    Standoff Episode 2 - certainly not disappointing

    Well, that happened to be one of those quirky bugs we simply couldn't fix. It also happened to be the bug which we didn't expect people to notice, at least, not for a while. Congratulations on finding it within the first few seconds. :P

    How can you guys call this easy?

    It's not in the prologue, no. But you'll find a nice juicy simulator with all sorts of goodies in the release of the next episode.

    Ships Question

    When we're confident that we'll meet that release date. Just look at Standoff's progress page. To say episode 2 is close to being completed is an understatement. However, we still need several key factors implemented, which can take an indeterminate time due to some people's schedules and...

    Bad Parenting

    When I was young, my mother had a wooden spoon that she named 'Jemima' - which she also painted a smily face upon. While it was never used, the threat of 'Don't make me go get Jemima' was enough to keep me relatively in check. That's good parenting. I think it's why I turned out so normal...

    WING Commander RPGS / MUSHES/MUCKS

    MMORPGS haven't impressed me these days - I mean, sure, they look fantastic, and can be fun to play. But in the end, they're very much the same. You play, upgrade, kill, upgrade. There's no real.. role play environment. No character development, relations.. no real story being told that you're a...

    WING Commander RPGS / MUSHES/MUCKS

    I still remember Red Horizon back in the day. In its prime it had several hundred members, from what I remember. But now? I don't know of any. But I agree it would be an awesome theme to Mu* in.

    Don't worry. Work has never stopped on the project, and episode y'all should get a news update real soon. *looks to Ed*

    EPISODE 3 Discussion

    Ah, that's true. And possibly he was particularly rebellious or impatient when he was more youthful. The reason it's kind of up in the air, is since nothing was actually mentioned in the new ones to support the claim. And if what Ghost has said is true, then it's just kind of left up to the...

    Dawn of war

    I agree, the intro was awesome. I did really enjoy the game. It has good multiplayer re-playability. I was disappointed as to how short the single player campaign was, though. I was set up to play each race, but was shut down. ;)

    EPISODE 3 Discussion

    No doubt I love my sci fi. The word geek can be construed in many ways, though. ;) - And you're right, I possibly didn't phrase it in a method of my opinion. I was curious as to what people thought of the point, as an example, of the way the new movies linked to those of old. You thought the...

    EPISODE 3 Discussion

    Uhoh, here we go. Now I'm a 'Sci Fi geek' and avoiding common sense. Fantastic ;) Not everything is about constants. Sometimes a movie can be subtle in the way it speaks to a viewer in particular, giving different ideas and such. I'm giving my /opinion/ on how a later scene was dramatically...

    EPISODE 3 Discussion

    Finally, Jason, a review I can agree with. It looked spectacular and all, and I enjoyed the movie for the ride. But in no way whatsoever does it come close to comparing to the original trilogy in my opinion. It may have looked cool, but it's full of so many gaping plot holes, that I can't even...

    Run All Old WC Games in DOSBox Walkthrough

    Yes, DOSbox is a beautiful thing. Quick question to the folks playing Privateer out there, though: Running it I'm fine with. I got past the joystick calibration by calibrating a joypad and them replacing that with the joystick in game (since the calibration really didn't like my joystick and...
