I think I got lost. I'm just going to read this thread now. No more posting from me. I have other ideas. Differences are bad. Conformity is good. O_o

quote: The global warming issue is what has harmed or will harm th environmentalist cause the most. The scientific world is at this moment quite confident that the earth is warming up, but doesn't agree on how much, how much harm will be done, and what part of the warming is actually caused by human actions. (as opposed to different methods of measurement and natural fluctiations) These waters are further muddied by environmentalists with media campaigns which predict more storms, floods and other disasters "because of global warming". quote: The solutions to which are anti-capitalist, and socialist. Explain? Maybe I missed something... Edit: I'm talking to Silk, not emphy, just to be sure. [ 10-26-2001: Message edited by: XenoZohar ]

quote: Remember all that crap about global warming? Our atmosphere? You know the stuff they would tell you in school? Most of it is exagerated or not true at all. Right. I suppose you're the definitive authority on this. Don't post things without backing them up. [ 10-26-2001: Message edited by: XenoZohar ]

Shoot. Another (supposed) classic I missed out on. I was a Mario whore back then.

It wasn't the original Street Fighter, was it?

Holy crap, that's great! I don't know what game the "main" character is from, but the boy with the backpack is from a "Boy and his Blob." Beat that for old. ^__^

Side note: krazor, where do you put all of those systems? With that many, i'd be stepping on keyboards and sleeping with a monitor for a pillow!

I think someone asked about opinions about which Trek pilot was their favorite on this thread(then again, I could be wrong), so I thought about this... Which series finale was your favorite? Least favorite? Favorite for me was "All good things...", and least was "Endgame", though it had one redeeming quality: Mega-Armor Voyager. Though, nothing beats the multi-vector attack mode of that one ship...what was it?

What, no one is going to chime in about how the ship is too new looking? /End sarcasm/ *grumble*

Here's mine: BCM belongs in the RPSimCombatSpaceFPS-OH-MY-GOD-I'M-LOCKING-THE-DOOR-AND-NEVER-COMING-OUT! genre. Thank you. Direct all tomatoes to space.

Well, someone give this guy a prize for having the most detailed entry! Thanks a lot! I'll be sure to check all the prices to make sure this fits in my budget. Thanks again.

Nova: Yeah, I knew that there aren't any "Fleets" devoted to Journalist. I ain't THAT new here, just a new poster. Though, anything is possible. SC may decide to add a fleet for them after BCM is out and he's working on GCO (only an idea....and he did say Journalists will be mostly important for delivering news in the earlier post). As for the "Fleet" thing, I was using the general term (a large conglomeration of ships). A corporation would actually sound better in reference to Journalists... Heh, thanks for the lesson. Though I knew all that you posted, I appreciate it.

Whoa, I was right.

quote: What's with these 10-hour games the industry has been throwing at us lately? I believe it's because it's hard to innovate today in the gaming world. Since it is, companies usually have to use tried and true methods and ideas, and thus, you already know these ideas, and can breeze through the game. That's my opinion, anyway. Also, I'd like to introduce you to a lovely word: HYPE! Max Payne was pretty hyped before it came out. You have to keep your expectations low or you're always in for disappointment. Again, my opinion, take it or throw it out an airlock.

This makes a little bit of sense, especially in GCO. Remember, there is a Journalist caste, and the way the "news" could be set up could be a special comm channel devoted to message from these guys, and only they could enter messages into it. For example, if they come into a region where Insurgents and Earthcom ships are duking it out, they could inform people that it's going on, and could just "watch" or even take matters into thier own hands, though they might end up with a dead BC Mk3.. To prevent people from abusing the channel, creat special Journalist fleets, and only the leaders of these fleets (producers, if you will) can toggle a switch to allow someone to start covering the event. My two cents...

Heh, the PTA system would probably assume my nieghbors are Gammulans.

"It's not a remake!" -- Tim Burton As SC says, rubbish.

For those who didn't get the joke, it was a play on what soback said about if you can do it in real life, you can do it in the game..blah blah.. quote: With what? Pea-shooter? Shuttles don't have any offensive systems, .... not even flares. Swap those crafts around, works better that way. You think I could land a BCmk3 in my backyard??! Where do you think I live, on the moon???

Yeah, I just love being able to jump in my shuttle I keep in the back yard and go blast away some Gammulans, after buzzing the international Space Station in my Battlecruiser mk3.

Yipe. I didn't think that about the movie at all. That's my opinion, though. Good thing there aren't that many Square-heads on these boards. Heh, if there were, you'd probably get blasted for doubting the almighty Sakaguchi.

One more question, this one about OS, though not like Silk's post about OS. I'm planning to get WinXP when it's released in October, and my plan is to split the new drive into two partitions: One for Win2k Pro, and one for Win XP. Now, since these are so similar(the kernels are both based on NT stuff, though XP is more based on 2000), is this a dumb idea? My main reason for having both is the fact that XP is supposed to have MUCH better DOS support than WinME, plus it can run 95/98 programs a lot better than WinME supposedly does. Gotta have my BC3k support, ya know? [edit] I'm also thinking of a third partition for Linux, but that might be overkill...any opinion on that? [/edit] Well, any reply is appreciated. It'll be a while before I start assembling parts and software, so i'm recording any suggestions for later use. [ 07-27-2001: Message edited by: XenoZohar ]

Ack! That's what I get for being impatient... I already hex edited the animation to make it the right size...oh well, I'll probably download the patch anyway to go with the game install in case I need to reinstall. Heh, though I'm not the one who had the problem, thanks for the patch, SC!

Yeah, I have highspeed access covered (going to college in a few weeks). I have cable access right now, though when the EP1 and EP2 demos were released, I still had to use a dial-up. I feel your pain. I don't think I could stand to sign that kind of a contract...

Though I don't know if it's an entirely GOOD thing, I'm 18, so I guess I'M the youngest. Nyah nyah.

Wow, that was fast! Thanks for the suggestions! I'll be sure to check that site out. Heh, funny reference, Fendi. Thanks again, but don't stop suggesting things!
