Sorry,wasn't my intention

1.AFAIK selecting more than one unit and giving orders to them is not possible.Creating a group is also not possible,but you can,if you are in FP-mode,select marines and add them to your priority list viewer[it may be that this doesn't work,as I'm only having UC,but the other commands are AFAIK existing in BCM).Then you just need to press TAB,select the marine you want and give him orders,without having to go into the tac-ops menu. About your problems with the deploying of marines:Did you make a DEPLOY TEAM Waypoint? [And if your shuttle just lands without deploying troops,then delete all waypoints,and create a new DEPLOY TEAM Waypoint placed on the shuttle,then give the shuttle the order RESUME WAYPOINTS and then your troops should disembark.

quote:I don't see why they would make the interior destroyable, since they are probably just BSP levels. Being able to destroy levels is a tremendous CPU hog and doesn't add anything to a game IMO.Of course it doesn't add too much gameplay-wise.But it would be IMHO very nice to first shoot holes into a hostile veseel and then board it,seeing all these holes and pieces of metal and fire and destroyed computers and flickering lights.It would be a whole lot more satisfying Anyway,at least it would have been nice to be able to destroy main systems,like engines or the bridge[in FP mode].But as this seems not to be given,why would I want to board hostile ships?May be just one time,because you'd want to see how the ship's interiors look like but then,as there seems to be not much reward in boarding,you are likely to just skip it.And that's,IMO,wasted potencial.

quote:But with ship interiors and what looks like a superior FPS modeI'm not that sure about the FP aspect in ships.In the parkan 2 forum there has been for example stated that a)the ships interiors aren't destroyable and that b)the ships can't be capture but have a self destruction sequence as soon as you have the last enemy neutralized. http://www.nikita.ru/parkan/p2/forum/read....f=2&i=309&t=309 If this is true it would be pretty lame IMO. But still a nice feature.Well,let's wait until the game will is released in country's other than russia.Though I guess it will yet take quite some time,maybe 2006.

Nah,the links are easily findable if you search the parkan 2 forum Just kidding

The Ur-Quan Masters quote:The project started in August 2002, when Toys For Bob released the partially ported sources of Star Control 2 3DO version to the fan community. Our goal is to port this wonderful game to current personal computers and operating systems. It is and will remain 100% free of charge, and anyone can contribute to the project and thus help make it even better. For more information, look at our info page. Very,very awesome game.And don't forget to download the extra music remixes when prompted in the installer menu.It very fits the game.

Senator Schumer takes aim at violent video game
paranide replied to Supreme Cmdr's topic in PC Gaming & Technology
I don't know how this is handled in the U.S but in germany movies are considered art,video games not.According to that the movie Saving Private Ryan is allowed to be seen up from the age of 16 whereas the game medal of honor is forbidden to be bought in germany,though dealing with quite the same subject. -
http://service.spiegel.de/cache/internatio...,361748,00.html Somehow sad what human beings do to each other.Why does no one intervene,or isn't africa worth it?
-
Yep,the fighting is quite fun (especially when you have mounted a horse,I hope the devs of elder scrolls 4 implement a similar system for their game) but I'm gonna wait for version 1.o till I give it another look.As it is too unfinished currently for my taste.

paranide replied to Supreme Cmdr's topic in PC Gaming & Technology
It sure won't stop people to play their games uncensored.But it's impudent IMO to tell adult people what they can bear(violence-wise)and what not. -

paranide replied to Supreme Cmdr's topic in PC Gaming & Technology
Yep,the german SOF 2 version doesn't have any humans,just robots and no blood.This incredibly increases the tension of the game And this censored-to-death game is only sold to people of 18 years... -.- -

Freyar,politicians,especially the older ones,do not want to know what they are talking about, if they see such an serious and"investigative"/sarcasm report on CBS and then see how many parents are nodding their heads [because its very easy to get rid of their responsibilty to pay attention to their children ,as its all these bad and violent games causing all the problems,it couldn't be that the parents are falsely educating their children/sarcasm) then these politicians are happy that they can improve their popularity by saying world-important sentences like"All these Killergames have to be forbidden"(its a quote from the typical CDU politician in germany,just to give you a clue how crazy it is in germany:C&C Generals has been forbidden in germany,till westwood sent out an updated version for german's retail in which you do not have any humans,but are fighting robots,with green blood,and most cutscenes with human actors have been removed cause as a mature person you cannot see the difference between reality and gaming lol).No,in fact I guess its most everywhere like that,before the computer was invented it was the radio that caused hell to come on earth and then the TV and to be continued forever... :/ -
LOL sparky why did you even bother buying it...after that many dissapointed reviewers?It was obvious that the 3 weeks(or so)development time more wouldn't make too much difference in regard to the US version. It's very sad that they rushed it out..I guess they should have taken one more year to complete DL.

Starship Troopers: Possible 2005 Sleeper hit
paranide replied to Raziel's topic in PC Gaming & Technology
Hm,I'm not sure but it looks like the typical 08/15 shooter just with the Starship Troopers story background... -
Jury reaches verdict in Jackson trial!!
paranide replied to Supreme Cmdr's topic in Politics, Religion & Legal etc
I heard today in the news that some of the members of the jury in an interview were talking about that they still consider MJ guilty though he's been acquited.That's IMO just very unfair,not that I like MJ,but as he has been acquited that's just character assassination... -
quote:How do you open the command map when you are the commander? Freyar,maybe you already know but:you can open the command map by pressing caps lock if you are the commander.
-
Well,it definetely can be quite a nice and fun game,but up to this moment you have to search quite a lot time to find a server with people willing to form up squads and with capable commanders.Unfortunalety on the most servers there is no organization,everyone is running wildy without any plan,and then it isn't very fun,rather boring.
-
hmmm I agree with you jaguar,it really doesn't feel other than bf 1942,apart from the updated graphics.I'm happy that there is a demo,because maybe I would have bought the game.After having played now for quite 2 hours I just can say that it's quite a boring game.Another 40 bucks saved
-
yay downloading it with 116 KB/sec..with a wait time of 3 hours[without including the search and browsing time to find a download source]
-
Maybe there is a more simple definition: religion is the early anticipation of death (as all religions lead to the question what will be after you end your existence)

http://www.adnki.com/index_2Level.php?cat=...171686888&par=0 Either this guy had a bad day or he wanted to gather votes for the election among radical voters.At least this is a prove that always the most radical(and loud) ones will drown out the ones being silent,the peaceful ones. He should have better thought about the p├│ssible consiquences his speech could lead to. What also bothers me about his speech is that one could easily come to the opinion that the islam is in fact a non peaceful religion,but I guess that this isn't true.It's IMO just a matter who is interpreting the koran.

America's Army (2.4) [Q-Course] Released!
paranide replied to Freyar's topic in PC Gaming & Technology
What I wanted to say with the boundarys is that you (mostly) don't have the choice in an ordinary game to do the things you do in the game in real life,while you are encouraged to join the army in the game AA(with links and info in-game provided),according to that you would quite do the things you do in the game in real life. Anyway:where did you read in my post that all people that play AA would join the Army?Or where did I blame games for people killing each other?
