    What was Confed thinking? Are they a bunch of Morons? A What If..? thread!

    NOTE: This is a repost of a thread I posted in the standoff area. I know there have been SOME, maybe a lot, of what if threads on this forum, but I haven't read any of them (I will be sure to, though! Are there any that are as thorough as mine? can someone link me to the better ones? I am sure...

    What standoff taught me (or: Confed are a bunch of morons!)

    So where are some of the threads that talk about the gun layout on, sayyyy, the Hornet and the Raptor for Standoff?

    What standoff taught me (or: Confed are a bunch of morons!)

    Well, let's tie the novels as closer to the reality of the game ... to me, that means that missiles ARE near instant kills, and dodging / successfully using decoys matters, a la wc4. I would also say that, as in the novels, collisions are a BAD thing...for fighters. phase shield ships could...

    What standoff taught me (or: Confed are a bunch of morons!)

    Well the Hellcat has worse maneuverability than the Rapier, and is in many ways a downgrade... though I see your point!

    What standoff taught me (or: Confed are a bunch of morons!)

    Uhhh... that was kinda the idea of the black lance project. Augment their greatest warriors? So they kinda did... just not during the Kat war. Anyway, does anyone have a serious reply?

    What standoff taught me (or: Confed are a bunch of morons!)

    Hey everyone. When I play standoff, I have a chance to fly the wing commander 2 / armada / academy / spec ops / some privateer era fighters with a relatively modern WCP engine. With this, you notice some interesting things about fighter and capship design, with lots of "What was Confed...

    Is this difficulty mod possible?

    Hi there, I was thinking of what would make the "perfect" mod to the difficulty levels, and this is what I came up with. Is this possible? easiest --> allies use good AI, enemies use bad AI, enemies have reduced shield, armor, structure, and/or shield recharge easy --> allies use good AI...

    Difficulty Levels

    I would like it if it was possible if the allied ships always used the best possible AI, and the enemy's ship AI just got worse the easier the AI level you were on...

    It was too long (like 10k letters rather than 2k) to do that!

    Episode 5 - Missions/Tactics *SPOILERS*

    Well, did you all get the report? Cause I couldn't email it through the forum, I had to go searching for your guy's main email addresses. Where else should I send it?

    Did I see it?

    Right, this definitely throws out the Privateer "The civilian ships are better than the military ones!" thing, which wasn't true in any of the other military games that also had civilian ships. I mean come on it's afterburner only went up to 1k! Though I am sure a good pilot would be able to...

    Episode 5 - Missions/Tactics *SPOILERS*

    Uh I just took the info that MS had on the error report, in the actual dialogue box that popped up, as well as the file that it generated. Standoff itself didn't do any reporting.

    Episode 5 - Missions/Tactics *SPOILERS*

    I did all the auto updating stuff. Where do I see which version of the game I have? I think I might have 1.28... argh... every time I am doing fairly well, when I have killed the snakeir and cleared through all the fighters on the screen, when one of the next group shows up... I always crash...

    Problems? Post them here...

    Without fail, after I am in the second mission in ep 5 for a few minutes, I get a crash to desktop. It only seems to happen when I am doing well and last a while in the damn mission, unfortunately!
