I guess most of them would all have the same basic "nomenclature" and most of the things sound like they're based off of C's language... its just a matter of learning the quirks and usefullness of the certain compilers... but even so, SC, thats impressive to be able to say that you've actually programmed in all of those!

I posted a note saying it isn't even out yet blah blah blah... with the reports from you guys ('n gals?) and submission that they're reviewing in which I said it wasn't out yet, they should get the point!

Roger that SC, I'll do it after I get home around 1:30 (9:30AM right now here) if no one else has yet.

When i saw the news about if the patch should be released, it felt like a deja vu. Looked similar to the Derek question asked a couple of weeks ago whether UC should released with or without some bugs. Guess i just appreciate it that the developers of my favorite games communicate so open with the gamers. LoL good point, although it looks like (since the game is out) if the developers want to release the patch to the US first or wait 'till everyone's are done and then release worldwide. Obviously they went with the US release first because I just patched Lo-Mac a few days ago lol... Yeah but really, I wonder what DC is up to? 30k copies of the wrong version, and what are they doing now? Did they copy them on CD-RWs and trying to erase the 30k copies to put RC2 on? Heck didn't Derek say he had a version even after RC2 now?! We want our game! ::cries:: lol

Yeah really.... I do feel that Day of Defeat for Half-Life is a LOT better than this... although for 40 bucks a 4 hour game that I could easily use as a coffee cup coaster after I'm done is a bit to steep... Great singleplayer experience though... but I still feel for multiplayer Day of Defeat blows it out of the water... even Battlefield 1942 is more fun although not as realisitc IMHO... (gameplay-feel wise...)

What do you mean? Love LO-MAC... just wish my computer loved it too... talk about a slideshow lol.... stupid Radeon 8500 pos... ::grumbles::

Make sure you don't have an auto trigger setting on your joystick (if those have such a thing).

Yeah, thats what I need to do, make it easier for pirates. LOL Never thought of that... seriously who wouldn't buy this game if they wanted to play it, there is just so much you can get with having the "bought version" community wise!

Uh oh, SC is done releasing movies... the time comes near!

Kinda neat idea if he would want to do something like that... allow the vets to wet thier lips with something until we have the actual thing in our hands. Maybe people will actually read the appendices then? lol

Huh?! I'm not sure of a specific error message that relates to whatever antivirus program you're referring to, read that post and think of yourself as one of us... what the whoot do you mean!?

Blah, its ATI trying to support thier P.O.S. card ala 8500... drivers have always sucked for this thing... I was pretty sure it was them! Still need to find my CD though

Also, I sent the 60 shots to DC and they're sitting on them it seems. what can I say but "OH YEA!". Even a GPS system too. Well I'm assuming that's a GPS system in the first screen shot. That's Coleman's camping supplies new SUPER COMPASS with built in topographic display module... lol EDIT: Grr, I can't spell, lol...

I have a radeon too... it has worked perfectly for me... but haven't tried it lately with the new drivers they released... those MIGHT be it... try downgrading or wait till I find my BCMG disk and let you know Might have something to do with data1.cab... SC?

quote: I actually have the shots, but have been busy with the last parts of the manual because it has to go to production today. So, you have to wait a little longer. Its not like any of the guys who bought the game for the "ACTION FIRST PERSON" are going to read it anyway... untill of course they get yelled at for being stupid! I can just see it now... you're down on the ground helping out the footsoldiers when a transmission comes in that the orbiting base is under attack, eveyone on the ground creams thier pants not knowing what to do.. but the old battlecruiser vets all form ranks, with various shuttles arrving from thier corresponding ships to shuttle them back... darkness falls over the remaining "action orented gamers" as a dozen carriers and cruisers are seen in the distance breaking through the atmosphere to go aid in defense. "WHAT are those things?!" Just hope they don't visit the forums!

If you want a near perfect representation of first person shooting that isnt "neck braced" like Quake or Unreal... try Operation Flashpoint: 1985 http://www.flashpoint1985.com The way they do it, is the crosshairs do move around a bit... like you're breathing hard after a run... you're not that accurate... normal unaccuracy of a human holding a weapon can be noticed too with a bit of a sway. The screen has a "box" around it... so you can move your crosshairs around that "box" without effecting either your head POV or your BODY TURNING... once it hits the constraints, your head then moves up, or your body starts turning... Quite interesting, and possibly it might fix the problem you're facing, SC, with the idle animations? Download the demo and check it out, if you want! EDIT: I must also add, the crosshairs arn't really even supposed to be used for aiming accurately, as if you're firing from the hip to grossly exagerate it... you ahve to bring up crosshairs which changes everything and makes it HALF-LIFE/QUAKE/UNREAL style but looking thru the iron sites themselves... maybe you would want to go that far with first person?

You will really appreciate the HJ recharge rate differences (as well as speed, agility etc.) between shuttle and CC. Arr... I see... I knew about the CCs but never thought of the Shuttles etc... looks for appendix ah, I should probably read through this again Thanks guys, :: shuts up until MP is released ::

::hides:: hehe... sorry guys, I dropped in, in the middle of all the excitement for BCM:G etc... and still am not sure as to the status of things... I'll just shut up and wait...

Okay, I'm flying around in my CC... a nice big juicy enemy CC rolls into a hyperjump going after one of the neutral LRT-10s... being police class... I decide I should probably help him! Anyway, I intercept his hyperjump and jump there myself, and wait a few more seconds (which was really cool) until he exited his own jump... I started hammering him before his ship even appeared (the blue phased part of exiting the jump which again is really cool.. man im a n00b...) Needless to say I blew him to pieces before he even knew what hit him... that or he was REALLY stupid... either way... after the huge explosion ... i saw a little shuttle fly off... i figured i'd give chase... the guy immediatly went into a hyperjump and i followed right behind him noticing he was going to one of the jumpgates... he got there before me... jumped through... and i exited my jump and was litterally right on his @$$... I quickly followed him into the jumpgate... thinking I've got you now you bugger! heres the odd part... next thing i know, the S.O.B. is hyperjumping again to a wormhole! My hyperjump is at say 30% now and I cant do anything to chase him! Now answer me this, because I've seen enemy fighters, and this shuttle do the same thing... do assets' hyperjumps recharge a LOT faster than a CC's? Or whats going on here?

Nope, lol... I couldn't find my reg key or CD for BCM... just got BCM:G

Is there any where to check the progress of this update? And/or exactly what SC's goal is for this update?
