    Least favorite WC?

    Man this is hard. I'd have to say Prophecy for some of the other reasons already mentioned.

    Kilrathi Saga

    You might also want to post this in tech support, some of the folks over there don't always view posts over here, only so many hours in the day. It might be possible depending on how you are playing the game. If it is through Windows 98, but not using a boot disk, you can do it, at least I've...

    Righteous Fire... that's it?!

    Droids was just awful. Not as bad as the Holiday special, but taht isn't saying much. Mario Bros. is another case of the games selling well, a decent run of a TV Cartoon and a less than amazing movie box office. As for games how many game franchises are there like WC, that is they started...

    WC4 ending

    The only thing is, Blair is not just any old deserter, he is the man who won the war with the Kilrathi. Granted Tolwyn is the man who mostly saved Earth, but that is old news :) However, I tend to agree that even with that on his side, destroying Ella isn't a great PR move for him and his...

    Righteous Fire... that's it?!

    Yeah, I think it was made by Sublogic, who did work with Microsoft on their early flight sims, iirc. Another early privateer-like game, set on the highways of the future was Auto Duel. Which happened to be made by, of all people Origin. :) I think Richard Garriott played a big role in it's...

    :cool: Very nice. Thanks LOAF!

    WC4 ending

    Ghost, not long enough. junior, I think you pretty much restated my point about the games and the game novels. Yeah Catscratch did vanish from the novel, I guess to give Blair a romatic interest in the form of Sosa. That's one element I wish would have been consistent from game to novel...

    Fighter Registries?

    True enough, but there is very little WC knowledge/lore/myth/rumor that LOAF doesn't know. Welcome, btw. Sorry I didn't give you a friendlier greeting.

    Righteous Fire... that's it?!

    He may be referring to the original Castle Wolfenstein, from the early 1980's. It was a 2-D game, sort of like Bezerk (which few of you probably know about (Some days I feel soooo old :) ), only you could pick up different weapons, liquor and bratwurst along the way. There are some screenshots...

    What's the Difference?

    It was different. It wasn't horrid. I played it at a friends once on the SNES and it wasn't that bad. If you've played WC only on the PC it does take some getting used to.

    WC4 ending

    Re: Me Too! I think it's "Those who can't, teach." Unless you are trying to make a statement about the quality or education potential of Border World pilots :) Seriously, the first time I ended up with the Intreped ending. I think the implication of the Admiral ending is you become...

    Favorite tactics

    It seems to me some of the turret gunners haqve some of the best AI. I recall having trouble with Gothri, Vaktoth and the bug transport turrets. The latter wasn't a problem with them hitting my ship, but they could do a number on torpedoes. I kinda wish some of the other cap ships turrets...

    Favorite WC Moment

    Actually that is after the credits for SO2, if you beat Jazz, and that is darn funny. I always view that, perhaps erroneously, as the start of Maniac as comic relief.

    Where the site for the WC tech support staff site.

    The site is there, but if you try to follow any of the links, at this time they don't go anywhere. (Granted, I didn't try all of them, but I did try one or two from just about every game.) At that point I defintely felt I had detected a trend :)

    WC3 and WinME... my oh my

    I've been rebulding an old computer with DOS 6.22 to play Privateer and some other games on a "pure" DOS box. I've swung by the EA site several times in the last week, and I keep getting page not found errors. EA/Origin still has the links to support pages for the games, but the pages aren't...

    Fighter Registries?

    He's new, he'll learn. I'd say post a note at the top of the Board explaining you are the final word on all that is WC, but based on the success of the SO post, I doubt it would help :)

    Once Again...

    Or endanger an already damaged confed fleet :)

    Freelancer!!!

    Sell a computer you built? :eek: I just run 'em into the ground. As for transferring. It depends on the license you get. Thumbing through the Microsoft EULA that came with one of our PCs, the license goes with the computer. The only time you can transfer the license is when you sell the...

    Once Again...

    If LOAF's map is correct (no offense LOAF, I think you and some other's were still not sure where everything was, or at least how things were connected), the Tarawa was not far from Vukar. However, how the Confed fleet got there is also an interesting question. I don't have my original map...

    Possible plots for new WC games

    I wholeheartedly concur with that. As for the tie in to the destruction of Kilrah, I would hope those who developed the story did not throw it in as a giant red herring, but they might have. Or even if they didn't plan it to be that way, if they ever do a sequel, they could change it...
