I ran into this problem as well, if you're using ATI drivers, try updating them. Fixed it for me... i prefer the omega drivers myself.

It's called half-assed production. :D

Whoops. I'm in the middle of packing, but figured I'd take one last glance at the CZ before powering down my rig for the week... True, but those were actual physical rounds being fired, and the weapon was much smaller... the Gatling Neutron gun (My mistake, it has been a while since I looked...

I thought I had responded. I really have to stop ENDING my day by visiting the forum... or during periods of insomnia... my brain's a bit scrambled after only an hour's sleep. :( Anyway, back on track. The actors used were good actors, just poorly chosen accent-wise(they could have at least...

The accent-choices were pretty rotten... Our old friend Taggart becoming Jacques Cousteau being a prime example (I think that's the main reason why it doesn't sit right with me. "Zee space, she is vast 'end wild.."), another being Angel. There is no way to explain this away, except that the...

Actually, you can land on your own... and taking off is a bit of a null point, because of the launcher(gets you off the line faster, and gets you into the fight... plus, if you kill your engines, you can coast at 6000 kps.) :D

If I remember correctly, Maniac did mention a nickname for it, but I think he was the only one that used it... (something like "the big bang" or some such nonsense) in WC4...

Your post makes me sad. :( As for the nickname thing, I'm not sure. might be in the WC Bible, if it's anywhere...

Perhaps not, but surely his experience with Wing Commander 3 and 4 had to whet his appetite some...

If you play the Resistance addon online, look me up some time. I'm usually lurking on the TPC or ETA server. ;)

It's a tie between Operation: Flashpoint, and Wing Commander 2.

Because he was completely insane?

You summed up the half hour my poor brain spent stumbling through a thesarus into one sentence. You magnificent bastard. :D And I coulda swore I posted a response to LOAF aside from the ones I see... musta "Gone MIA." Oh well. edit- corrected some spelling. I have got to stop posting at 4...

I'm assuming here you meant canon. Dear GOD... the French actually talk like that? No wonder people hate them... "Mon Ami" among other phrases, the speech addon to WC2 rendering her voice as the obvious "french girl" accent... Yeah. They don't claim she was British, nor did they claim she...

Thought about going to see it... I decided it was better not to take my girlfriend to it. I don't regret that choice. I DO, however, regret that girlfriend... :p Anyway, there are a great many improbable changes... WCM is like watching "Enterprise." When you have an established universe, you...

Ironic, someone (though not very clearly) makes a helpful suggestion, and the local troll population does a boot-insertion into said poster's throat. Not cool. Come to think of it, not all that ironic, either. Happens all the time here. (I call it "Comic Book Guy syndrome") Anyway, thanks for...

This makes me think of the "THIS PWNS TEH PLUNKET!!!11one!" mentality. Ease back the throttle there chief, and think about the history, situation, and craft of the day. This is frickin Midway BC.

I tend to agree. If they'd only called Chris and the others something else, hadn't botched the "Tiger's-Tiger Claw" name(There's no evidence I've seen to support the "two ships theory"), and turned it into visually submarine-like craft, I think that's where the rift in WCM-resisters(Myself...

Earned the nickname "Manic" back in Middle School, due to my strangely erratic behaviour. One minute I was smiling, the next I was pounding some poor kid's face in for smiling back. Used it in games ever since. (If you see a Manic running around on Operation: Flashpoint these days, it's me...

Let's face it, there hasn't been a good representation of any video game on film. Ever. Tomb Raider, Mario Brothers, (yes, even Wing Commander) are prime examples. Star Wars had better acting. The NEW Star Wars films had better acting. (translation: the acting sucked. On all counts.) edit-...
