Your Chaosness,

I can't save things alone and I can't burn it down to the ground alone either. Don't give me too much credit.

I can eventually recreate it in my own way...

the sad part is that those who do know how to save it, can't act to save it.

Do you've a higher res of that?

I see that our discussion about the end of Allegiance as less interest for your than that picture...

nm j/k (or not?! ). try using 'search by image' in Google Image Search (click the little camera icon in the search box and paste the 11-11-11 link), you'll find a 1600x1200 version somewhere. (or use TinEye but Google is faster and better).

*snip*

Fair enough you personally can't burn it down or save it either. I think we agree on that completely. However I wonder in your moments of excessive Gaulic passion the smell of kerosene and burnt matches isn't from your lack of giving it the old college try

Here they only sell Mickey's in 12oz or 40oz bottles....and generally if I'm going to go in for a fotie, I'm drinking a Lando.

Hell brother the last time I bought a "Q" or drank that swill for real was when Commander101 was @#(!ting in his diapers, and drinking from a bottle. Just seemed hood-a-liquious to invoke Mick's malt liquor (had a friend with cash and named Mick is why we drank it back in the day)

I tried to whine about R5 when it first came out. The argument was that R5 had to be released to upgrade video drivers for new machines.
The result was (for me) a drop in connectivity. I upgraded my internet so it compensates, but the connectivity still acts like i'm on dial up sometimes.







/Unable to connect to Mach2 at the moment although I was connected about an hour ago.

Sitting in the lobby watching it drop from 27 players to 14

Umm... if you use the Linear Control Response aiming is more accurate...? Try a smaller dead zone in the Alleg control setts (or lower mouse sensitivity)...?

And... the 0%, 33%, 66% and 100% throttle keys can be used to zoom the turret... (But I suppose you know that already)

(Quadratic Control Response, afaik makes turn rates inconsistent, I seriously don't think it should've been implemented imo, but that's just me)

Zero hun I know how to turret but thanks for the suggestion anyway. Bugs are what bugs are. It was similar to the capship roll but there was no stopping it.

The middle button aka as the scroll wheel on my mouse is fubarred. The F3 zoom feature doesnt really work at all and playing on a lappie = pain in the ass to use the num pad

When entering a turret (the faction was: Lizard) the turret crazily loops about making you totally useless as a gunner. BTW it takes herculean efforts to stabilize it in order to shoot

total game play time 12 minutes and I didnt even whine about the other three minor issues


Honestly this feels like trolling cause I can NOT be the only one experinece the game play killing @#(!


Many of the stongest personalities in Allegiance claim to be "Devs" its now time to @#(! or get off the pot. Be a dev or make me a sammich

+1 on all this! There are also a few commands that don't work. I unfortunately can't tell you specifically as I no longer have the laptop, and it was a buntu box for months prior.

NOw since I have a setup that can actually access the game, I have a few things to say.

First, the point system needs to get reworked so that non-combat tasks are better compensated. I got a cashbox or two and was probing the other nite, goose egg for a score, and I have a (4). I have an extension to that 'KB Boost' that applies to this. Newbs should get even more for these tasks. I walked in that game, and HOME WAS NOT PROBED AT ALL...tsk tsk tsk (other side was even going tac iirc!). I try to be a good scout, or whatever role I manage to play (mostly scout due to skill and prefer noncombat some days). This and many other things need to be encouraged and guided during the games.

Also, is it at all possible for a couple of the vets to coach a newb even on the main game? I mean CMON, you have a resource here aching to be discovered. Some of them can be found to be decent at the stick, grab a couple extra noobs plus your assigned/volunteer team, and do some miner d or have them nan some bbr runs or smth. Take the less stellar ones (at the stick) and show them some good scoutage. Give them a role, and they will begin to ask questions about the rest and work to overcome their obstacles. EVERY ONE OF YOU can inspire a newb to never be a voob, and BE A CONTENDAH! I have met a few that helped and inspired me, like lyk (luved him on TS), mrc, nj, andon, and plenty of others. Look at me, with all that has happened, and I am still here trying! Think about that for a minute!!!

I work at a Papa John's again near me, and I'll be damned if I'll let a newb driver or even my managers be clueless. I was a driver for months before my car died and know my stuff. I take that stuff damn seriously, for mutual benefit. Not to be harsh, but if you can you can talk that talk on noat and the boards, you can walk them through and have them do their level best at emulating your success. Think of them as your kids OK? Would you do let them be ignorant and lost? $#@! NO.

You guys are so behind the times. How fkin slow can you be? We saw this coming long ago and had to sit here and watch the whole shebang collapse while you fools stuck your heads in the sand.
Troll THIS!
You're beating a dead horse.
