    Something's wrong: Adm. Bergstrom didn't relieve Tolwyn of command

    Oh heck no. You want to know how many times I have to try and get my brother to stop doing something bizarre? Forgetting one aspect of something just happens... maybe the technical knowledge isn't here. It's certainly nothing that invalidates the Aspie hypothesis.

    Something's wrong: Adm. Bergstrom didn't relieve Tolwyn of command

    Yeah, that's aspergers alright, exact same thing as what my brother does. Until you give him another video game.

    Wing Commander 2010

    Yeah, I definitely need a high resolution version in 4:3 dimensions, if you can do that... that Bengal gives me a nerdgasm! :D

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

    Simply that some of your assumptions aren't true of the universe. For example: The Hellcat is a later variant of an earlier fighter, hence it being called the "Hellcat V". There would be any number of reasons for it to exist, though perhaps not if it were a completely new design built from the...

    Yorktown-Class Carriers

    You forget that these are later variants of older fighter designs. The Thunderbolt VII's design is old, but it's a perfectly functional modern fighter...

    IMPORTANT: Standoff Episode 5 patch 1.26 now available

    I finally had the chance to download and install the patch tonight, and my 7300GT now works perfectly. No blackness for a background, ships are all visible. Excellent work!

    A flat surface with nothing on it? We already have Final Destination, give me the Concordia or Tiger's Claw... :D

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

    OK, so actually it's my family with the horrible timing- you guys planned ahead, and they chose this week... well, considerably sooner :p. Oh, well. Still can't wait to play!

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

    Ohh man! I'm excited, but you guys have some of the worst timing... I have to leave for Ohio for the week tomorrow! I just hope some of the remaining patches come during that time so that the wait was even more worth it...!

    Privateer Ships

    It gets worse in ASCII sector, where you'll ALWAYS be pursued at full afterburn by enemies if you try to run... making running almost impossible.

    WC3 Alternate plot

    From what we see at the end of Fleet Action, you could probably run that scenario with the same ships that were left after WC3, but completely bomb Earth rather than just do heavy damage to it. Not much was left...

    Wing Commander III Cloak/Decloak Sound

    There's an extractor here, not sure if it's what you want: https://www.wcnews.com/files.shtml#wc3 It might also be possible to get the file by watching Queeg's movie cut of WC3: https://www.wcnews.com/news/update/7669

    Wing 1 and 2 mentioned

    I have to say that WC1 plays fairly decently with the 360 controller. Most functions can be mapped very conveniently, and I'd imagine with a little work they could get communications, nav map, etc to work; ideally the game would pause for comms like Prophecy Advance, and so forth. One can dream...
