The way this is going, "fighting for it" is going to mean direct NATO involvement within the next 12-24 months, i.e. troops on the ground in Ukraine. For all countless money spent on this war and the claim that the Russian military is just a bunch of boobs, we're stuck now with a stalemate that has no end in sight and yes, a US government saying they're going to continue pouring funds into this latest foreign adventure, come hell or high water, and oh yeah, we're going to find Ukrainian pensions while we're at it.

Yep, and meanwhile, a small town in Ohio can't get the help it needs. And before anyone says it, NO, I don't think the invasion of Ukraine by Russia was in any way legitimate. I just don't agree with the way this is all gone, throwing billions upon billions so one corrupt former Soviet republic can fight another corrupt former Soviet republic. Or so that Zelesnky and his wife can go and do a photo shoot with Vogue Magazine. It's a pretty ****ing sad state of affairs when our elected leaders are overly eager to send our taxpayer dollars overseas to fund yet another foreign war, but they can't be bothered with pressing issues at home (see also: East Palestine, Ohio).

Somewhere Eisenhower is spinning in his grave right now.

Let's do some basic math here. Carlson's ratings for the year (as of the stats released 5 days ago) are 3.3 million average viewers. That means out of some 331-odd million Americans, a whopping 1% of the country is tuning into him. Yet, it seems like every time he opens his mouth and says something controversial here, out you come with the emotional, over-the-top comments about how he's undermining the country and how listeners are part of the pro-Russia faction in this country, yadda, yadda. Why is he that big of a deal to you? See, there it is. Just because some of us are disgusted with Washington DC politics doesn't mean that we aren't generally supportive of Ukraine's war against Russia. Just because we aren't all in lockstep with what you think, Steve, doesn't suddenly mean we are secretly agitating for Russia to win this war. And, since I'm working backwards through responses here... It's relevant to the fact that, once again, our elected leaders waited until the last moment to "debate" these sort of measures, had a several-thousand page bill plopped on their desks shortly after midnight, right before Christmas, and are expected to sign off and vote Yes on it, else they will be called unpatriotic Americans for not doing all that should be done to support Ukraine and then be pilloried for it by all the talking heads on the left - who as a whole have a far greater reach than Carlson. That's not how our republic was ever supposed to run. Say, didn't George Washington have something to say about all this? But hey, in the end, Ukraine got its $$$, so who cares, right?

Well, since you went there, Steve... What I am outraged about is that we continue to spend billions upon billions on a foreign war and that our duly elected representatives "agreed" on a 4155 page spending bill in the middle of the night, right before the Christmas recess that no one outside of the few who drafted up the monstrosity are ever going to read. All this while the economy, infrastructure, etc., here at home has ongoing serious problems, to say nothing of the way our own vets continue to be shafted by the utterly idiotic way the VA administration is run. Yes, but let's get all riled up over what someone said on Fox News! The horror! You know what I do when I see the same sort of nonsense on MSNBC, CNN, the NYT, or WaPo? I laugh and move on. It's not worth the time.

Some of the very ugly side effects of pouring vast amounts of cash and weapons into a region like this: https://www.politico.com/news/2022/12/14/us-ukraine-aid-cable-00073803 https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/weapons-delivered-to-ukraine-beginning-to-filter-to-africa

As for this gem: Someone ask him why I'm on his ignore list. I'm genuinely curious to know. I've gone back to circa 2012-13 to see what I possibly could have posted at that time to tick him off, but I've come up empty. I'd ask him myself in PM, but alas I cannot do that. Talk about petty and holding a grudge for whatever reason...

Sure, I get that, but considering all the vehicles that have been modeled over the years, it looks awful petty to come out and say how quality control has suddenly taken a nosedive, etc., etc. As for you your question, no, I'm not aware of any specific process Battlefront undertakes to see why a bug might have slipped through.

Quite the cheap shot from someone who's never been part of the beta testing process.

There's been a similar discussion over on the IL2 Tank Crew forums, yep. Barrel damage is no joke.

As opposed to just ignoring his posts and not derailing this topic even more?

Maybe it's time to step away from the keyboard for a while if you are increasingly irritated with people that disagree with your opinion?

I've played without those unsightly grid squares ever since Shock Force was released and don't miss them one bit. If it was that big of an issue to that many players during all these years of development I'm sure they would've been added back in. Like others have said, mods here are your friend.

Lol okay. You've heard of games like Microsoft Flight Simulator, right? They're designed around single player game play. I'm not going to dignify the rest of your childish response with an answer.
