Thrustmaster makes some good joysticks... i haven't personally tried one, but i've never heard bad things about them. http://us.thrustmaster.com/products/d_prd.php?p=T63&fam=6 or if you want a throttle as well.. http://us.thrustmaster.com/products/d_prd.php?p=T64&fam=6 Microsoft doesn't make...

If you don't mind characters mouths moving way too fast in certain cutscenes (Nothing else other than that), VDMSound works great for Wing commander 2/1. Wing commander 3 works for some people without dos-emulation, and if you patch WC4 it works fine as well. I just like VDMsound because theres...

I was stuck between wing commander and Bartender... while it's great to fight the fights and bring home victory/whatever... i think it'd be equally as interesting to hear everyones side of the story. A bartender would probably have more knowledge of whats going on in the war than even some...

haha, how weird... if that was around when i was looking for a KS copy i woulda bought it instead of paying 150$ for all 5 cds... i just wanted KS for the redone versions of WC1/2 ...Even though they managed to make it somehow that WC1 works in XP... while wc2 doesn't work in XP... so i ended up...

My guess... Centurion. Except for I don't think it's technically considered a confed ship... ... Now i wanna go and play privateer, dangit.

I agree with the music... the music brings back nostaglic moments, i definetely like the WC2/1 music a lot more than the WC3/4 music... it's probably because i played WC2 when i was like 5 years old, though, the music is engraved into my mind... ... Is it sad that sometimes i'll just play the...

///makes mission to top epee score :P ... And i'm testing the hypothesis that a sartha will turn left everytime they break away... something to do with the way their engines are arranged...

The rapier is a great ship in the simulator, but i keep on getting my face handed to me by dumbfires it seems :(... the rapier is kind of lackluster in the confed gauntlet though, mostly because quite a few ships can outrun it, and that dang broadsword is so hard to kill. So i'm usually stuck...

Ah, i haven't tried it since episode 3 came out, it must have been a corrupt file, because it works now. Thanks ! Also, another issue... Sometimes, during the game, i'll get bumped out of it (by a IM message or something that i forgot to turn off) and it'll minimize. When i attempt to restore...

Okay, so, i've played the simulator about... 30-35 times so far, and it's crashed 5 times on me... so about 15-20% of the time. Athlon 3000+, 2 gigs of ram, geforce 6800 GT, Windows XP Pro (fully patched) - 640x 480 resolution, 32 bit, fighter/capship/asteroid viewing distances are at full...
