Looks kinda interesting, been waiting for it for some time now.

Praylac: I do remember them saying that they reproduced at an alarming rate and that the dragon's overpopulation was causing them to run out of food. What I am saying is that I'm sure that the worlds top scientists and military personnel would be able to come to the conclusion that after killing so many of the dragons and finding them all to be female (post battle analysis to find weakensses and better means of killing them) that they would start plotting where the male was and once that location was pinpointed target and nuke it or simply focus an assault there. It really wouldn't have been that difficult to do, for the use of nukes and failure of conventional forces to stop the dragons would only have been caused by a gross incompetance of the combined military organizations of the world. and that level of incompetance is something that I have a hard time believing.

had an awsome game tonight, me and about 3 other guys were working really well as a team and just plain shredding the opfor in Pipeline. It was one of those games that remind me why I like ArmyOps. I play under the name Vaaish if you ever see me or want to play a few. Usually on late at night though. [ 07-18-2002, 02:12 AM: Message edited by: Eclipse ]

uh.... sentimental value against droping a nuke on London? Or just forget nukes, send in about 10 or so F-22's or what every you want, I don't think those dragons can engage at the range the fighters could nor could the dragons do too much maneuvering against a swarm of missiles even if that failed what happened to the good old cannons on the planes? But even though the storyline was a little shaky, it wasn't a bad movie.

what really got me was Lindh's fathers statement about John loving this country. If he loved it so much why did he go join up with our enemies? anyway back on topic, I too think that life would have been better but whatever went on I hope it was worth it.

Actually I think that we should start phasing out the large nukes in favor of more and smaller tactical types. Right now nuking someone is almost on the same level as strategic high level bombing was in WWII: all they do is "blanket" the area with explosives. It's my personal belief that when the USSR collapsed the Cold War didn't end, it just shifted focus to China.

Did anyone else think it was odd that it took 2 magneseum(sp) tipped C4 arrows to take that thing down at the end? Especially since the first one didn't seem to do any damage.

They did expect thousands they just weren't ready for the 20,000 some odd ppl registering in the first 4 hours.

Think tribbles with lotsa teath...and a really big apetite.

are you talking about the password when registering on the forum or when you create a soldier?

I believe that those last 5 to 10 seconds you are getting shot at are the time that the animation of the ship exiting the HJ is played. I'll have to load it up and look at it again, but if that is the case, just the part out of HJ is getting shot at... be glad that SC doesn't have shields down in HJ and when you are coming out

yeah, not a bad movie, but I liked the little short "Chub Chubs" they showed before the movie up by us.

all the CS junkies learn pretty quick on maps like Bridge. All it too was 2 guys with m249's and me with my m203 to stop em dead. after that the stream of cannon fodder slowed down and started to gel into a semblance of a team. they actually started to use cover, lean, semi think when lobing grenades and lay down cover fire. It'll takethem awhile but when they get stopped cold 2 seconds into a match about 10 for 15 times they start getting the idea that rushing ain;t gonna work.

In HQ raid(MILES) IFF is a bit tougher mainly because both sides are basically the same save the pack. for cases like this, stick with your squad and let the rambo's get tagged. If you stick together anyone you see coming towards you won't be a friendly. Knowledge of where your frinds are is very important. Personally I stay away from the miles servers. you can get hit too many times for my liking. I prefer bridge or pipeline, though mountain ambush is also alot of fun.

Quick rule of thumb for IFF: If they have a pack, they are friendly if they don't shoot 'em. I'm glad you didn't use the hack to get past basic itself. That info that is sent is eventually used to determine if you can select particular classes. eg. sniper.

I don't think they anticipated as large a croud as is there. If you just keep trying you'll get it complted.

sooo.... anyone want to share their experiances with Basic? I've just heard form one whiner that it's too hard and he can't hit the targets in the distance while staniding

opening them isn't the problem... having to swing the view around to a certain spot so I can click the little blue "forcefield" to enter the door is.

After playing a bit more... before my friend took his CD's back... I have come to the conclusion that NN is a decent game. Of course WHAT ON EARTH were they thinking when they came up with the system for entering doors?

It's supprising how many people call in wondering why their cable was disconnected when they haven't payed for it for the past 60 days.... it's really verry simple.... PAY THE BILL AND YOU WON'T BE DISCONNECTED!!! back on topic... I'm still thinking about seeing it, has an interesting premise and some of the environments could be interesting.

SO far it is interesting, but the styles of gameplay are much different to compare to morrowind.

Not bad, but I think splitting it up into paragraphs will make it wasier to read.
