  1. It's been discussed several times. The simple answer was - "If Fionn can make maps, anyone can." Hey, HE said it, not me!!
  2. Sheesh, when I get the Panther it gets WAXED quickly. I get it up on the hill, let it hunt for the perfect hull down position. No matter. In three games as Germans it's been waxed three times. Yes, it has always gotten at least one kill, but the speed of which it get dispatched by a lone Sherman at great distance is always frustrating. Twice it's been hits on the gun, another it was a hit in some "special place". Grrr. Of course when playing the American's I have no such luck.
  3. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Fionn: I think I figured it out. Since I've only ever painted by brush before I didn't realise that my Humbrol paint was oil-based. Guess I need to put in some white spirit to mix it up a little and help uptake (or is this a serious no-no) ?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> In my model building days I couldn't afford Humbrol!!! It was testers for me, and the Tamiya stuff I think. Anyway, I simply mixed with regular old paint thinner and used it with my Pasche (sp?) airbrush. Worked great.
  4. What's a single guy do on a Friday night? Sheesh, that's easy. Grab a six pack, order pizza and stay up till 3AM playing VoT!!!!!!! Wooooo!!!!!!!
  5. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Big Time However, we translated the three Beta Demo scenarios into the new format back when we had the ability to do so (we batch processed all of them in one go). When you get the FULL version of the game you will find your old favorites installed on your harddrive, ready for duty! Steve<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> ARRGGH!!!! I swear if I ever see those scenerios again Im gonna hurl Steve!!!!!!!
  6. Re : Flamethrowers I was DETERMINED to get my flame guy some action. I loaded him on a tank and using an 81m smoke barrage I outflanked the cement bunker on the left side. THe flame guy walked over to the bunker and fired off FOUR "rounds" at the thing. Nothing happened. After he was done, there was no smoke, no remaining fire. ????? Im confused. I thought that flame weapons used jellied fuel, and that it would continue to burn. THere was zero effect on the pill box. Finally I had the M4 blast it from the rear.
  7. YAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! 135 kb per sec baby!!! Read it and weep, I'll be done in 2 minutes!!! Have fun everyone!!! And THANK YOU BTS!!!!!!!!!!
  8. >I don't really know how to handle this : I >just can't supported to see this permanent >red flag. Then don't buy the game. I'm sick of all the revisionists who want to remove symbols or any reference to the Nazis. How the hell the game will be "better" without a certain bit map is beyond me.
  9. Meaning, can one CD spawn to another PC on a LAN to allow for 2 players? I hate to say it, but at $40+ a copy, I am not keen on buying 2 copies so I can play against my pal. I know there was talk of this going in, just wonder if it did.
  10. Well...I'd love to look at the pics. But I can't find them on that web site. What's the direct link??? I've clicked on about everything I can think of but all I can find is the preview and CMHQ.
  11. From the Internet Movie Database - "What is being described as "the most expensive film to be made in Europe" is set to begin shooting at the Potsdam-Babelsberg film studios in Berlin in January. The $85 million Enemy at the Gates (2000) stars Ed Harris, Jude Law and Joseph Fiennes in a saga about Germany's disastrous siege of Stalingrad during World War 2 in which the Germans lost 250,000 men in battle and had another 112,000 soldiers captured. French director 'Jean-Jacques Annaud' told todays' (Friday) London Daily Mirror, "I want to make this so realistic that you will think you were there."
  12. "I only found the game recently and already await it anxiously." Get in line behind those of us who have been waiting for a HELL of a lot longer than that.
  13. I went once. What's the point? I mean there's nothing to chat about!
  14. I'm getting this message - "The web page you are trying to access doesn't exist on Yahoo! GeoCities." That's at 10PM California time. Can't get to your main page either.
  15. If anyone wants the DVD, I'll sell it to ya (shipping included in the US) for $12. It's in perfect condition.
  16. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>This gives you a chance to cancel if you so wish. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Hah! Stop it! You're killing me Steve!!! Oh man, that's a good one!! "Cancel my order!" Stop it!!
  17. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>I think in a post a while back, he said that the Gold Demo will have to be released AFTER the game.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Actually I believe the idea is that the gold demo would be released right after the game goes gold. So hopefully we'll have the gold demo to play while the game is getting ready to ship.
  18. Zamo said - <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Blue Oyster Cult were gods.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> What do you mean WERE? They're still on tour ya know. "On tour forever". Saw them last year, they still kick ass. They're coming around my way this month again. In San Fran. the 22nd I think. Gonna try it again. Stupid me never saw them when the played the big stadiums.
  19. Sheesh, the questions never cease. I quote Steve. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>We are waiting to hit a couple of internal milestones before we open our yaps about a possible release date.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
  20. Hmmm....I did a search on that topic and got conflicting info. But I'll take your word for it Moon, it makes sense. Thanks!
  21. Actually Major, I am pretty sure crews WILL reman abandoned vehicles in the full version. I swear I read that somewhere on here before.
  22. Is it just me? Or does that picture look really weird? Where was the flame thrower mounted on the tank????????
