Off-Topic / Re: New Names?
« on: 01-04-2009, 10:04:57 »
Dropped the [WOLF] Tag on the move over here.  No real reason.  The only reason I had it back on FF was because just "Ionizer" was already taken (I assumed by me, and I had forgotten the password, but upon inspection of his posts, I found out it was definitely not me).  Now that it seems FF is back up and running, I'll wait till the next name changing thing and probably drop the [WOLF] from there too (probably adding "_1" to the end because that jackass is still hogging my name even though he hasn't posted since 2002).  Not that I don't love WOLF, it's just I think it makes me look pretentious to wear the tag when I'm not an Admin.  Yes, I'm a WOLF Tagholder, but not an Admin.

Also, I need to make new signature...

From what I can gather the British could use an updated Dorchester.
Yes, AIUI all commonwealth nations can use the dorchy. Here's a nice alternate colourscheme/setup.



Look out Ganon, Link traded in Epona and got a new ride!  (He just needs to play Zelda's Lullaby in front of the TriForce mark everytime he wants to start the engine.)

Is that the one that was lost in the hard drive crash?  Or did K96 make a new one?

This seriously needs to be in 2.2, no matter what.  It's impossible to strafe ground targets with the Spitfire, the cannons fire too slow and are too far apart.  If they would at least hit where I put the damn crosshair, I wouldn't mind the rate of fire.  Less important for the Hurricane, because it fires fast enough that you waggle your wings a bit and hit anything close to where you were aiming, but it would be nice to hit on the first few shots instead of wasting 30 rounds just lining it up properly.  Would also be useful for the 109, simply because it get so few rounds to begin with.

On a different note, I thought the 109's cannon fired thru the nosecone?  In game, it seems to come from the wings...

Suggestions / Re: map grids
« on: 01-04-2009, 07:04:50 »
I don't think we need extra lines on the whole map.  Maybe just one of the grids (say A1 or a grid that's unlikely to see combat) has the extra lines along with the labels.  From that, reasonably intelligent people could juxtapose the extra grid and labels on the main grid in their heads and call out what they needed.  That's what happens now.

There's just a bit of confusion.  Example:

  Would be nice....I use this style of enemy reports all the time with the 130th/WaW guys.   In a perfect spot a sherman in the NE part of B-4 zipping south would go over TS/Venty as such "Enemy Sherman in Bruno 4..9 heading south!"  I will say however in the heat of battle most the time I just use the current flag we are at and the enemy position in relation to said flag.  Such as "Enemy sherman North east of flag!"

I've heard the letters called several different things.  Like Bravo (what I use), Beta, and Bruno (Bruno only from Lainer).  Also, there's the confusion of if it's a phone pad or keyboard key pad.  Luckily, "Bravo 3, Keypad 5" means the same either way.

Tangent:  Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Foxtrot, Gulf/Golf, Hotel.  I don't know how you can use Greek letters (Alpha, Beta...?  Gamma?  As far I know there is no Greek "C" and using Gamma will cause confusion between "C" and "G").  And Names?  I don't even want to know how you can go thru a list of names in the heat of battle ("Hmm, should I pick Candice, Chris, or Claude...  Oh damn, I just got my arm blown off by a grenade..."  Plus, the easiest ones to remember would ones that you can see.  Like the default names of the squads, perhaps...

Can we still go set it on fire?

I'm just so damn confused...

Question now is:  Do we want to go back?

Also, take this opportunity to back up any PM's, threads, or anything you might want saved.  Hell, even moving some of the old stickies over here might not be a bad idea.

Just a hypothetical situation for the betatesters:

(Using the current internal version) You have just deployed an mg42 lafette, but it didn't appear.  You hear an explosion in a nearby building, and enter it looking for a better weapon than your pistol.  On the ground are 3 kits: one with an M1 garand, one with a carbine, and one with a g43.  All have an equal number of bullets left.  Which do you pick up and why?

Why would I enter a building that I just heard an explosion in, with only a pistol. ;)

You are obviously looking for the remains of the Robot Banzai Chargers ;)

Is it possible to restart a Grass Ninja Thread?  Or should we wait for Fuzzy before resurrecting something like that?

Didn't notice it until I looked down at the "Member Online" thingy. 

Hopefully we'll have a happy update soon...
