I know you don't control their shipping. I "have" contacted them. I've received no reply yet. I was just curious if others were having such experiances. One shouldn't expect to be put down, or have ones "common sense" impuned for simply indicating a possible game shipment problem. Please excuse me. I will simply wait.

Darn, the title of this forum topic is " Universal Combat A World Apart - NOW ON SALE" Excuse me.... please read YOUR initial post under THIS topic. Ample references about game shipment. I'm curious, has anybody received the game yet? Have they began shipment of any copies?

Ordered and paid for on the 4th. of August. Still no game? I trust that this is due to the massive demand for the game. I have been cooling my heels.... but I think I'm beginning to see some symptoms of frostbite forming.

I covet a LARGE galaxy map. Drool.. droool. I'd pay.

Welcome back to the Battlecruiser universe.

Ah Prez.... a new cadet?

Salutations, Thanks... I'll cool my heels until then.

Salutations, Ordered. Awaiting delivery.

Salutations Teknocack.

Salutations, Reporting in.

Salutations, I have been unable to reply or post to any topic on the "ikonboard" forums.

I'll voice my opinion. I just might open up another persons eyes and ears to what is going on. I like to play war "strategy" war games not first person shooters. I served for over 21 year in the U.S. Marine Corps. I've seen and experianced the REAL carnage of war up close and personal. I have EARNED my right of free speech and put my life on the line to guarnatee that right to all of us. My comments come from the "greater" perspective of one that has lost many friends and comrads fighting for the U.S. and I hate what is becoming of our culture in the name of intertainment. I'll not comment further. I think my point of view is clear.

No, I'm dead serious. It's violent, vulgar, and bloody trash desquised as entertainment. I watch parts of such things to make informed decisions and observations about the continual degradation of our society with hollywood and the general media leading the way. There are like computer games out there. Vulgar, violent and bloody. They are mind polluting and trash. Add the vulger and violent lyrics of even some music to the list. It's not a pretty picture. Still there are those fools that purchase the junk to their own detriment. An example of what is happening: If one takes a frog and tries to place it in a pot of hot water it will jump out. One the other hand, if one places a frog in warm water and very gradually turns up the heat... the frog will just lay there, relax, and allow itself to be cooked to death. Another example... in the great movie " Gone With The Wind", when Clark Gable made that famous statement "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn." it was then considered a shocking peice of dialog. Now, such a thing isn't even be noticed let alone considered shocking. Our society is like the frog... we are very gradually being morally degraded and most are to dense or morally comprimised to recognise it. Those that may be older among us, like me, can better see what is happening from the perspective of greater time spent in observation and concern. It saddens me. Things will continue to worsen and people that speak up against the trend will be considerd the odd ones. Righteous conduct and thought is increasingly being considered wrong and wrong thought and conduct considered right and acceptable. I don't much stock in ANY awards given out by hollywood insiders to recognise hollywood productions. What if General Motors managmement gave out a special award for one or a few of it's "considered" best automobiles. Self serving at best. Hollywood awards... bah. Self serving tripe. The only thing they are really good for is as a paper weight or door stop. [ 07-19-2005, 02:04 AM: Message edited by: Boyd ]

It's typical hollywood rubbish. Politically correct in making character(s) of the original series females. Turns my stomach. Made to cater to the amoral mush brained youth of our current generation. We don't want upstanding strong and moral leaders presented. We want drunks and seriously flawed bozos as heroes. Made on the cheap by making most of the cylons look human. It sure saves on having metallic cylons running around doesn't it. The way it is presented.... a n y b o d y may be a cylon. After saying all of this... it will probably be a hit considering the character of much of our society. I'll check in on it occasionly to see what perverted twists they present, but I won't punish myself with a lot of viewing. I'll stick with SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis.

LostInSpace, What I find sad are people like you that obviously haven't studied the complete Bible but quote passages from it "out of context" to bolster their opinions or positions. Being personally judgmental towards others is indeed improper. None of us are to judge others because none of us are perfect. On the other hand we all have to make judgements. I choose not to do many things and choose not to associate with those that do things the Bible calls sins. That doesn't mean that I am judging other people. Such judgmentalism is needless, immoral conduct already condemns the person committing the act(s). Regardless, that in not the case when "called upon" to server in a crimnal trial. Such duty is a civil obligation. Hopefully such jurors are honest God fearing people that will intellegently make their judgments based upon the evidence presented and the overall precept presented in the Bible. Bible knowing and beleiving people know that we are physical and spritual beings. Socially, we have to put limits upon the conduct of our physical fellow humans. Those that rape, murder, or molest their fellow beings must be stopped and punished. It is foolish to quote "judge not lest ye be judge" in such cases. Simply foolish. Society must protect itself from such immoral minded people and their sick loathsome acts. Even if a lawful jury condemns a convicted criminal to death.... his or her actual punishment will come before a Holy God during the Final Judgment of us all. Before that time, we as civilized people must enforce ,what we deem as, our laws of conduct. Because of my Biblical beliefs, I find no problem in sending a convicted murderer child molester or such to his or her death to await a spritual judgement later. Also, society (we) shouldn't have to pay to house and feed such reprobates in a cage for decades. Now speaking as a retire Marine, "Take out the Trash".
