  1. +100%. Frankly, if they enabled 6DoF on the next official patch, I would'nt bother with mods at all. Yes, I accept they have brought a whole host of good things and the amount of work and dedication they represent is laudable, the fragmentation we now have, the sheer amount of farting around they now seem to require I think outweighs their benefits. Bring it on Team Electric Chopper!
  2. 'Fraid I am indeed a member of the ever so militant National Union of Teachers JP But boringly and for a whole host of reasons, I did not come out on strike today and frankly I won't be, period.
  3. Fascinating read Toad. A couple of things stand out; We returned this guy to internment after he escaped!! I suppose at the time Churchill was desperate to get the Irish PM de Valera to allow British ships to use Irish ports during the battle of the Atlantic. Unsuccessfully as it turned out. I could say several things about Eamonn de Valera and his government but lets just leave it while remembering that while over 50,000 Irishmen chose to enlist in the British army to fight Hitler during WW2 the Irish government choose to remain so neutral they even managed to send their regrets to Berlin through their diplomatic staff on learning of Hitlers death in May '45!!! The other thing that slaps me round the face is that the Eagle pilots were stripped of their American citizenship!!! I find that astonishing! These free citizens of a friendly democracy came to help their cousins put down a monster and FDR's administration did that to them!? Never knew that at all. In the UK I don't think our government can do that. It might be different if you've become a naturalised citizen but if you're born British there's no way to take that away from you.
  4. Colin, Jabo very kindly did me a dvd of some sixty episodes of the Goon Show!!! I got one of my boys to put half of it on his i-pod nano (which he dosen't use anymore since he got an i-phone) and I listen to it through the car stereo via a, er thing.......which plugs into the i-pod and broadcasts on fm to the car stereo. It cost nineninetynine (my favourite price) from a petrol station a couple of years ago. It works a treat.
  5. Whatever you wanna do Angus but I'm deffo interested in the E8400. I've got a Gigabyte mobo which is good for overclocking and a GTX460 so I think it'll give me a decent boost in RoF and CloD.
  6. Angus, I would very very much like your E8400 to replace my E6600 and am very willing to pay postage from Canada to the UK. However, I quite understand that you'd rather get rid of the gear as a job-lot so if you get a better offer then take it m8. Btw, now your family is fairly well established and you're getting a new whizz-bang system which you're gonna be amazed at the eye-candy it will produce, have you thought about a vasectomy!? What with your new system, the progress the devs are making with CloD and the impact of global warming, have it done now and you could be flying Coops with us in a couple of years! Edit; Doh, I'll have the mobo and ram too if you want as I've just realised it's all higher spec than my stuff. Can I suggest you hang onto the graphics cards as a handy back-up, just in case.................................Also, gonna have to offer you more than postage m8. If not money then books or something. I know from past experience that I cannot post single malt scotch from the UK to Canada
  7. Downloaded the mission FT and yep, getting exactly the same as you. No 109's, blow up on runway and can't exit mission! Pity, lots of juicy targets too.
  8. Sober Will be there.
  9. Hello CoCo, you are very welcome.
  10. O.k, I know there's not many of them but why, when you get the best frames at altitude over water, on a full real server with CEM on, is everyone dicking around at 500' outside Dover harbour?
  11. Really!? Thats a damned shame

    Intro

    Welcome to the DangerDogz Wolf. Our man JP can recommend something you can get on prescription that will help with that.
  13. They look like fairly average prices for a boozer in southern England Friar. Mr. Zooly will probably be spluttering into his Tetleys if he see's 'em 'cause it's grim, but cheap, oop north.
  14. Hey, JP! My wife off all day at Chelsea flower show. Fantastic, ain't it?!1
  15. You were drunk for three and a half weeks!? Oh wait, you're a Swede. Thats o.k. then
  16. Got it, installed it and just nuked Moscow with my Skyraider!
  17. New Nvidia beta drivers out nowMy link Seems to have helped my GTX460 with CoD. I've been flying a bit on the Syndicate server. Full real on the channel map, fairly well populated as dogfight servers go and a good way to learn the eccentricities of CEM. I'm pretty sure the '109 is not as it should be though. Get into any turn and burn with the rotol Hurricane and you're deadmeat with not have enough speed to break off the engagement Infact for me the rotol Hurricane is the outstanding plane of this sim at the moment. Stable, easily managed and eight .303's at convergence are deadly to anything.
  18. Flown online tonight with new patch and hotfix ( I think) and I was very impressed. There seems to be light anti-aircraft fire where there was none before and it's done very well. 303's ploughing into the field around a low flying and evading 109 were great. I got 'im aswell Switched sides and flew the 109 which seems to have gained some speed and no overheating/engine shaking problems. Covered a guy taking big lumps out of a Spitty which caught fire slowly and watched the fire spread. Overall, stable and very playable Shadrach; yeah, I agree. It did seem to improve over the course of half an hour or so. It's gettin' there.
  19. Dang ! I'm really tempted to cancell my preorder. I have preordered it on 2 Feb 11 and they are still pushing the release date back. I'm getting fed up. Anyways I'll wait. There is always RoF, FSX and riding the motorcycle. I will not preorder another sim ever. MT Trooper; If you really want it now I believe you can obtain a legit, English language version now by doing this. Get yourself a Steam account then go to this site; JustFlight When you try to purchase you will get a message telling you to basically bugger off 'cause your in North America. Ignore it. Get the download code they give you and enter it via your Steam account and you'll be able to download from Steam.
  20. I agree with this. The North American Steam market is bigger than the rest of the world combined and if they release CoD as it is now they'd be overwhelmed by the avalanche of sh1t that would swiftly overwhelm them. I would imagine Ubisoft management must be considering their global reputation. Pity though as I still think CoD has star potential when it's sorted. I firmly believe thats a "when" not an "if." Double pity as it means no North American guys in multi-player yet so for night-owls like me there's no-one online after 11p.m. gmt. Mind you, the last beta patch completely screwed multi-player for me anyway. Haven't had a chance to try the new official patch yet. Heres hoping................................................................................

It should be available in a few hours via a regular steam update. As usual, it's all a little vague. A "few hours" could mean today, tomorrow........you get the idea.
  22. Yep. Hope you have a great day m8. Many happy returns
  23. Actually the bit about paying off everyones mortgage makes sense. Apparently the amount of money spent by the treasury in the last three years supporting the banking sector would be equivalent to paying off all domestic mortgages in the UK!!!! Also, since all our building societies were bought out by the banks years ago it would also have the benefit of giving back our banking sector the liquidity it craves. Amazing innit!? Don't know what effect this would have on inflation though which, being an economics dunce, (I've bought another euro-millions ticket today) can I ask; If inflation is bad why does everyone bemoan the slump in house prices we're having? Isn't house-price inflation just as bad as any other kind of inflation? Edit; Must buy a British car? Fine by me, I've always fancied a Morgan. Are there any other British owned car-makers left?
