    Wing Commander Standoff: Episode Five Released (August 11, 2009)

    I haven't had a whole lot of bugs either...not to say none at all, but very few while *trying* to go through Ep. 5. You say the graphics are MINOR fixes? Good lord, those're GORGEOUS! Makes me even more glad I updated my old Frankenstein to include my NVidia 9800 vid card! I die half the...

    Battleship Porn

    I'll agree with that...CV-60 Saratoga was my first ship. If he was under any sort of contract, that's absolutely correct. While the Navy prides itself on tradition, admittedly some of that tradition wavers. However, where longstanding ones are concerned, such as saluting the naval ensign...

    Explosive New Poll Asks About Torpedoes (July 18, 2009)

    WC2 indeed! All those red flak puffs going off around you, the shields losing power, armor getting peeled off...even the possibility that the flak intercepts your torpedo and makes you go around for another pass! That was danger you could taste on an EGA monitor, and made it even better when I...

    The Most Beat-on StarFleet class...

    Uhm.......wow.

    The Most Beat-on StarFleet class...

    I'm thinking that, when Enterprise comes along the dead fleet, they must have grabbed every model of every ship class they could think of. There was the secondary hull of a Constitution-refit/Enterprise class floating about as well.

    The Most Beat-on StarFleet class...

    Well, there's also the Galaxy class: - Enterprise-D: Destroyed by Lursa & B'etor's Bird of Prey...and over and over and over again by the Bozeman in the Typhon Expanse - Odessy: Destroyed by a Jem'Haddar kamikaze hit to the navigational deflector, which in turn came loose which, in turn...

    Bradshaw's Callsign

    Yeah, pretty hard to dodge a mach 5 missile to be sure. But hey, don't dispair...just fly over Iran, I'm sure they have a few flying about! :rolleyes:

    Bradshaw's Callsign

    I just remember my best friend recounting the time when he was in the squadron ready room onboard the Kennedy (he was part of VF-31, IIRC) when the movie was playing on the closet-circuit and the pilots were literally laughing sardonically saying how that could never happen, how they'd just...

    Kilrathi Female Model WIP

    I found it interesting that you gave her Captain's bars. If this is a loosely-mixed planet of Human and Kilrathi, is that a sort of reference that there might be a joint-species defense force as well? Or was the uniform just mainly for test purposes?

    X-Wing Collector's CD: Resource viewer?

    Yeah, that was the standard in all the SW space shooter games...you kept on playing the same mission until you succeeded, then go on to the next one. One path, no exceptions.

    Best Weapon Combo

    The Arrow's great combined with the speed. However, I absolutely love the Wasp's Tachyon/MD combo. I tend to grin evil when I gain angle on anyone. Yes, they drain fast if you're not careful, but they kick the hell out of just about anything that they hit.

    Savik's Accusation

    The way I always took it was that she expected a bond out of Spock, considering he "married/mated" her during his Pon Farr stage on Genesis. That bond never kept its hold, which is where I think the animosity came from. As for not going to Earth...storywise, they probably wouldn't have had...

    Catch Up On Your Moldy Oldies (June 10, 2009)

    Eh, he should have been ranked higher than nine!

    New Space Sim in the works

    No, you got it right the first time, though depends on your perception. The latter sounds like you'd be switching to a first-person shooter mode to storm the ship, and I don't imagine the specific engine you're running would allow that.

    Wing Commander and Audio Books

    Oh, methinks my bandwidth would be chomping at the bit to download something like this...but I've gotta agree with LOAF here. Neat idea, but lack of potential profits usually trumps the neat idea card.

    Savik's Accusation

    On K.A.: Huh. I always thought it was because she wanted more money than Paramount was willing to give her that she didn't reprise the role...I remember reading that in a David Gerrold book way back called "The World of Star Trek". 'Course I could be remembering that quite wrongly. I...

    Wing Commander Comeback

    "You can design games for the Xbox 360 and the PS3 OR the Wii, but you can't do both." Ah...which explains the noticeably large variance in PS3/360 vs. Wii versions of The Force Unleashed...

    Changing faces of the Kilrathi

    ...in search of Bamboo and burning it to hell? I'm still laughing on that pic...methinks I shall steal it for my collection. Thanks for a late-night laugh, that's priceless.

    Savik's Accusation

    True, you see her trying to hold her emotions down throughout most of TWOK, though she only partially succeeds: - As the Kobayashi Maru is ending, she's unbelieving of the way it's going - With Kirk lecturing her, she's quite annoyed..."As I indicated, Admiral, that thought had not occurred...
