    this game, WC Saga, and the truth

    Lehah, I agree with your point(pot calling the kettle black)... but couldn't you have found a black kettle? It doesn't really fit :D Anyways... I agree with LOAF on this one. Being grateful for something that hasn't happened is like... well, exactly that. It's pointless. Don't get me wrong...

    Wing Commander: Legacy of the Confederation

    I understand where you're coming from there, Quatro. The team's first goal will be getting the WC1 units going in multiplayer/skirmish, for version 1. The project will probably be ongoing for quite some time. We're not going to rush it, however. Actually, the first goal is getting a team...

    Wing Commander: Legacy of the Confederation

    Oh, it'll be there. Along with anything else that ever existed in WC fiction. ;)

    Wing Commander: Legacy of the Confederation

    True, I was a bit over-enthusiated when I posted, but this is the sort of challenge I live for. I've gotten a hold of one of the old members, and I can hopefully get a hold of Payne and Wildcat(two very talented modelers from the Invasion team)... with a project this ambitious, we'll probably be...

    origin Space Rogue

    People get used to having herpes. Doesn't mean it's a good thing. (My apoligies in advance to anyone offended by that comment. Just making a point.)

    Wing Commander: Legacy of the Confederation

    Yeah, I'm picking up the ol' modding mantle. I got my brain wrapped around Empire at War, and I must say, this is some of the best groundwork for a mod. I'm trying to get a hold of some of the old team(from my invasion days), and more information will follow. Some information about the mod...

    this game, WC Saga, and the truth

    Actually, a friend of mine threatened to kick a customer's butt, then turned around and sold him a cell phone... Still haven't figured out how the hell he did that one. But, I digress. First off, Saga(or, rather, members of it's team) has pretty much flamed the dickens out of some people here...

    this game, WC Saga, and the truth

    I don't doubt we will see a finished project here... there's just been way too much work done, for someone to simply give up... That might be wishful thinking, however. All I can say is I hope they capture the feel of Wing Commander, instead of winding up with Freespace+WC models.

    Microsoft FF Pro 2 in Prophecy

    OK, so here's my dillemma... now that the Multiplayer Patch is on the horizon, I broke out my joystick and whatnot, but something's always bugged me about using the Force Feedback 2 joystick on Prophecy... the rudder is reversed, no matter what. If I reverse it in the options, it reverses itself...

    Vietnam man handles three decades without sleep

    When I was 19 I kept consiousness for 4 days... I then slept for 2. I was coding a webpage and got on a roll, didn't stop until I finally ran out of steam. These days, I can't even do 24 hours, even with motivation. Sometimes getting old sucks.

    Free Game: Elder Scrolls: Arena

    Morrowind had(has?) several ongoing beautification mods out there, which use fewer polys, yet look far better. Maybe everyone is a little too pretty, for peasants, but it looks better than Bethesda's works, by far. IMO, Morrowind had the worst character modeling of any game. It wasn't...

    this game, WC Saga, and the truth

    Had to read that one a few times to actually understand it... Anyway. I consider FS2's voice acting as ok, it's the immersion (or lack thereof)that irks me. That, and the difficulty(or lack thereof).

    Man of Vision: Multiplayer Added to Prophecy (March 5, 2006)

    "Kris and HCl are both genius programmers." No argument there. :) edit- *dusts off his overpriced joystick* time to practice up. :D

    Man of Vision: Multiplayer Added to Prophecy (March 5, 2006)

    From a programming standpoint, it's relatively simple to impliment, I would think. It's just an IRC chat-bot(well, two chatbots in tandem, effectively) feeding a command line execution to prophecy... It's more or less the concept Gamespy is based on, just simplified in some ways(lack of game...

    Man of Vision: Multiplayer Added to Prophecy (March 5, 2006)

    Just had a thought on the lobby concept, and a game-matching system... an IRC channel, with bots communicating with each other, and feeding it into the interface. (like a #wingnut window for communications, and a new, seperate channel for said "callsign-bots" to inhabit upon creating a game...

    Don´t you hate Maniac...

    You'll meet him towards the end. He's a darn good pilot, by WC1 standards.

    Man of Vision: Multiplayer Added to Prophecy (March 5, 2006)

    *twitch* YAY! *more twitching* I could see a lot of potential with this, if it weren't so very difficult to create missions... Prophecy deathmatches ought to be a thrill, though. Any word on whether there will be some type of multiplayer lobby? (not everyone has my sparkling personality) By...

    Star lancer?

    Point taken. As I mentioned before, I do have a "right and wrong" list of my own, which, generally, fits in with the ten commandments (deducting of course the religious overtones)... and a lot of what I was failing to get at, is the moral objectionability of so many occurances in this world. I...

    Probably not, most people who obtain temporary bans recieve another, more indefinite one rather quickly.

    EA VP Pushes Digital Content Distribution (March 3, 2006)

    That's one of the few things I like about DVR, I can get a PPV event(for instance, last night's UFC 58), and watch it at my leisure any time in the future. Now, a broadband solution (perhaps the cable company's "On Demand" system as an example, but on a broader scale), wouldn't be bad at all. as...
