Ok, found a problem with 1942...

Post by XMEN Iceman »

I found out that I should not drop a bomb from my P-51 Mustang while inverted...It screws up the prop and the dang thing has a tendency to blow up! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Man..saw my first B-17 bomber tonight! The machine guns on that thing are vicious!!! Especially when you are flying a Focke Wulf like I was!<br><br>My favorites so far are the Mustang, the Spitfire, and the Daultless Torpedo plane...I love to see the torpedo wakes, plus sinking enemy carriers. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>This is a great game. Played Omaha Beach...I was calling in Artillery strikes against incoming Allied forces.<br><br>Wild! <p><table border="0"><tr><td><embed align="left" src="http://www.thzclan.com/avatars/ezice.swf" menu="false" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" width="217" height="166" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/dow ... <td><table border="0" style='Filter: Shadow(Color=#BB1403,Direction=255)'><tr><td><span class='usertitle'>XMEN Iceman [DTM]<br>Founder and Leader of the Base Tribes XMEN Clan<br>Proud member of the Dragon Talon Mercenaries teamplayers Guild<br>Citizen of New Fenecia<br><br>"You weren't much of a challenge" - T2 bot after killing Iceman<br><br>- click on avatar for links - no, not sausage links!</span></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></p><i></i>

I have done some pretty cool stuff with that game. Like crash landing a heavy bomber and not getting hurt at all.<br><br>I was flying it and got near the edge, so I turned and dove pretty quick to turn around faster, unfortunately there was a nearby hill, I was pulling up as fast as I could but I scraped it, I thought I was going down hard. The instant I fire touched I hit e and jumped out of the plane and it kept sliding along without me, then exploded. It was pretty cool. <p>XMEN|Temujin|DTM<br><br><img src="http://www.xmenclan.org/temujin4.jpg"><br><br><a href="http://www.robohouse.com/myrobot"><img src="http://www.robohouse.com/myrobot/irongiant.gif" border=0 alt="Click here to find out what robot you really are"></a><br><p>The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' but 'That's funny ...' </p></p><i></i>

I have found a real problem with this game, the load times are enormous. It's not fun to sit around for 3 minutes loading a map, only to have it change right after you join... <p>XMEN|Temujin|DTM<br><br><img src="http://www.xmenclan.org/temujin4.jpg"><br><br><a href="http://www.robohouse.com/myrobot"><img src="http://www.robohouse.com/myrobot/irongiant.gif" border=0 alt="Click here to find out what robot you really are"></a><br><p>The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' but 'That's funny ...' </p></p><i></i>

It's not supposed to be one on one.

Get All Seeing Eye, It has a buddy list. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>For some odd reason, despite the fact that every time a game comes out, that's what the players shout for, developers have not yet learned that a buddy lisy is at the top of the features people want. <br> <p><table width="40%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"> <tr> <td>-LoS-Malthus</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href=http://www.lordsofsteel.com>Lords of Steel</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><img src= "http://www.lordsofsteel.com/image_uploa ... .jpg"></td> </tr><tr><td>"Thats 25 points, a 2 point conversion and eternal damnation"<td></tr></font></table></p><i></i>
