How about "Warthog"??

(reference link = I like to call it the warthog )

Duper

and trantrum and volition...

Duper

..you mean like on a motorcycle?

I'm pretty sure you start a pyro with a key....

Duper

remember that this is a prequel and thus an early version of the GX.

so yeah, it's going to look a bit different. Being an earlier version, it seems reasonable that the intakes and engines were positioned on top if the body rather than incorporated into it as the GX was.

I don't think that was a snipe, Lothar.

Getting cynical in your "old age" there bro!

LOL! Welcome to the forum Becky! How you gals doin up there? Grendel, here on the forums might be able to help you out with Dragon Wars... if he has time. He's an engineer in central western Oregon. (he's on page 34 of the member's list) Cheers! Dragon Wars Remastered is halfway done already. It he...

Duper

Hmm. Seems that their domain name has lapsed.

Duper

By the way.. I played the Heck outta Star Lancer! A couple of neighbors and me played the coop to death!

I still have my copy around here somewhere....

Duper

LOL!

That's been going on since Dx9

That's awesome. They even have it bent down as if trying to eat grass.

Click the links in the text! XD wow. some of them are great!

Duper

LOL Sigma. That's great! Their whole series of commercials is hysterical! ...and they're advertising cell phone service!

They talk about it on their forums here: http://www.planetdescent.net/index.php?topic=1390.0

*shrug*

Maybe they favor SC? Go ask.

.uh.. yeah.. like for 2 years now? no wait.. 5 or 6. Gamespy has been gone 2 years now.

This. ;D

Duper

Does this vary across the different versions of Descent? (original, XL, Rebirth, "Rangers"-Rebirth etc?)

Here is an article that Extra Credits did back in 2012 on microtransations and actually addresses some of the issues that are being discussed here. It's just over 9 minutes long, but worth the time. Whenever I start grousing about monitization, I go back to this video. It's that good. In short, it's...

Cake > Pi

;D

(Happy Pi Day TC!)

Duper

Wow, I'd never considered that. I guess that would depend on the homing tech in the missile.

is it heat, magnetic signal, image recognition, radar, etc. ?

This is worth discussing.

Duper

er.. I'm not sure that comparing the Descent project to Star Citizen is a good thing. How long has SC been in "development"??
For their sake, I hope it doesn't take 3+ years.

Duper

Foil, what part you heading to? Have fun!!! Take pictures!! TC, we have a supermarket in Beaverton called Uwajimaya . They are all things Japanese, as in, you really should know how to read Japanese before going in. ;) So here, we have the ability to eat authentic food, but like I said, it helps to ...

Duper

In D3, mines and such were re-categorized as counter measures. Only missiles were secondaries. This wasn't true of course with D1 and D2, but that may have been to keep everything mapped to the number keys back in the day. With a stick, however, you COULD map the deployment of mines to a separate bu...

Duper

Well Sirius.. if too fast... twice..

TC.. so what you're saying is that if a gal loves a guy, she should help him with that heart attack????

Food portions in Japan are like half the size they are now. I'm pretty sure there is a law there against 72 oz steaks!

Duper

yeah.. no.

Why am I mining again?? I thought we built bots for that? That sounds more like Miner Wars than Descent.

Just sayin.....

Duper

yeah TC, it is a bit backwards. Most regard it as a way for business to make money, but many enjoy it anyways for fun. ^_^ Where water is concern, we could be hurting here on the west coast this year. We have nearly no snow pack at all and record low precipitation for the winter. I'm hoping it rains...

Duper

ahh don't worry TC, White day is next Sunday. We can send you some "obligatory chocolate". ;D

Duper

Thanks Sirius. I was going to post that too. I've seen this picture pop up here and there and even on a news cast, but I'm a bit leery of it. Sure it LOOKS cool, but I don't see enough contact with the ground to support that kind of weight. (Sorry TC, not meaning to rain ..er.. snow on your parade t...

Duper

Have you checked the router? Did the ports get locked down?
(sorry, just brain storming here)

Duper

Thanks for posting this! Man, it's been a long time! The scary thing is, I used to do some of those things.. OK.. quite a few.

Duper

Oh yeah. Gravity lenses are awesome. ^_^

Duper

Missed that and I looked.

Thanks Foil. Valhalla shut down and wanted to remove the link from the post.

Duper

Announced on the SC forums Here

Duper

Ahh.. I see. I've not used that before. Thanks!

Duper

Funny thing about this comet ...those jets have totally dumbfounded scientists. ^_^
and thanks to the Russian scientists... we have some really cool pictures. ..even if the landing as a bit rough.

Duper

I've been blocked off the Interplay forums. I can log in, but can't access any of the forums while such and my rights to send a pm has been taken away.

LOL.

And why was I logging in? To update a dead link in my how to play descent post. for players. not interplay. oh well.

Duper

With Rebirth, you can host a game and anyone searching should be able to find it.... assuming the correct ports on your router(s) are open and such.

Kali can be used, but isn't necessary.

Sirius, is that stuff for the Rangers mod of rebirth?..I don't have time atm to read through the page.

Duper

Anyone up for a coop game? Do a 1-7 run. D1?
