    You Might Be A Wingnut!

    Yeah, having your licence plate be TCSEISEN would definitely make you a Wingnut...

    K'ki'Kya "Screamer" Conceptual Firekkan Light Fighter

    I like it, it's very different. The one thing about that ring though, is WHY is it there? They don't build things like that onto fighters for asthetics - that'a lot of metal, meaning a lot of extra inertia. 1) it does offer some added aerodynamics, making it more viable as an atmospheric...

    Omega Project (Fleet Action)

    What about the Cerberus, from Secret Ops? Wasn't that a "top-secret stealth-equipped cruiser"? It didn't have the super-powered shields, but the project could've easily been downsized...

    You Might Be A Wingnut!

    Well, in Canada you can register custom plates, up to 8 letters...I'm trying to think if there were any famous ships with four letter names (need a space) or shorter?

    [to unregistered person] - How did you get it to set up? Just ran the install binaries and away you went?

    Plot Mission Problem

    Oh, I know where it goes and all. Thanks...so the bug isn't QUITE as buggy as I thought lol. :)

    Plot Mission Problem

    Okay...I didn't realize the fact that you lose all active missions when you save your game. Nasty bug, but it's the Vega Strike engine, what do you expect? :p Anyway, is there any way I can resume my mission? It's the second of Tayla's missions, the first one you fly out of Oakham. I still have...

    "Repair"ations

    There IS a feature in Vega Strike called Time Compression...you could just as easily use that to take care of the repair time blues. By the way, I'm having a hell of a time repairing my armour right now. How do I do that at a base? So far I've just sold my armour and bought new, because Basic...

    In WC3 Tolwyn is Perfect

    Well, it's one of the perks of being an admiral, that you get the good food. One cannot fault Tolwyn TOO MUCH for that one.

    In WC3 Tolwyn is Perfect

    My take on Tolwyn: since I (gasp) haven't played WC3 yet, I can't comment on him. I just haven't been able to track down a copy, and I have a thing against EBay that I may have to put aside for a while. :p In WC4, there is one scene where I think Tolwyn presents a positive side, and that's...

    Argonaut-Class Conceptual Design

    Umm...a transport that can haul TWELVE cargo boxes, and it's military? Ten turrets isn't a heck of a lot. Also...shuttles? I'd have that thing carrying a small compliment of light fighters...it could get away with it given the size and large shuttle bay. Say...four? Maybe six?

    Talon armor and speed

    Yeah. The Talons in 9b are NUTS, from personal experience. They take way too much punishment, but they hit appropriately hard. :)

    Easter Egg

    I really doubt that's the easter egg, lol. I didn't see ANYTHING that could be called an easter egg...are we talking inflight?

    Buyable Ships

    Guys! Guys! CHILL! Most ships in the Gemini sector should probably be buyable or OBTAINABLE. Here are some examples: Stilletto: Obtainable only through secondary plot mission. Fly a few special ops missions for Confed and they'll give ya one. Gladius: Possibly the same as the Stilletto...

    Great game, Great questions

    It's basically the expansion of this game to eventually include EVERYTHING everything. Like one of these days we might be able to fly, say, a surplus Exeter-class destroyer, ergo you'd need a level 8 shield emitter for it. :p

    Super Soaker STE Flash Flood Review!

    I think I remember those little guys...I think I got hit with one once. :p Heavy pistol sized, great range (like you described, 12 vertical feet is huge for a pistol)...sounds pretty wicked to me. I LOVE that Flash Flood...I haven't had a good Super Soaker fight since wasting my brother with...

    Linux Fans, Please Test

    I'm on the 64 version, and it handles just great. As for being noob friendly, it is so far. I've had to configure a few plugins, but nothing apt-get install whatever doesn't take care of, lol. What it DOESN'T configure, though, is MIDI - not just not properly, not at all. It's like the coders...

    Linux Fans, Please Test

    Ok, I'm set up and downloading on Ubuntu now. It'd Debian-based, but I've got no working MIDI. If anyone knows how to get MIDI set up in Debian or Ubuntu, mind PMing or Emailing me? Test results forthcoming.

    Observations with Pre 1.0

    On Vega Strike? That's ALL? The frame rate given is a "virtual" frame rate. Actual speed is limited in the game, it simply refreshes quicker for "smoother" animation. Still...with a Radeon 9800 and a gig of RAM, I'm surprised you're not turning higher.
