I'm pretty happy to see a D520 introduced with the spit Vb and the 109F

what a sad joke

d520 is part of the '40 plane set, but I agree it woulda been nice to have it early on. The rest are the 41 set. Kieran, that joke woulda worked well a year ago, but it has progressed beyond that luanch.

Keiran has played it and likes to lonewolf and has no fun but hasnt played it since 1.70-1.72 with the graphic and sound to dx8.1 fixes. He would enjoy if if he did some squad stuff, but furballs are getting bigger as ppl fps increase during them.

. Odepus has a p3-600 and has basic FPS problems.

BTW I was content to just post the info..so lets blame this on Dago.

500..

Dare we dream?

Hard I gave it shot around June. Has there been the talked about graphics upgrade since then ?

I did the groundpounder stuff and enjoyed it. The plane stuff sucked but that isn't why I went there in the first place.

What has changed since June ??

Threads propigate because people continue to reply. No one would have though less of you for just posting the info and clamming up about any inane replies.

Poopster, versioin 1.70 was upgraded to demand dx8.1, T&L was implemented, voodoo 3 and below dont run well at all. Takes at least 32 megs on the videocard. It looks better, runs better, plays better has a few more vehicles. Full attrition is implemented
They tested a new netcode for a while and everyone notice big improvements, but even with the old code things are going well. XP may have a problem, a memory leak may be there eating their VM up, not all using xp report the problem. Seems to happen after several hours of gameplay. I havent seen it but I run win98se. Grab the download and try it offline. Gonna lobby for a free 2 week period for ppl to check it out.

This is Dago's fault:D

Attrition..is full now,everything has limits. we ran Antwerp Air completely out of AC. You get you vehicle back to a friendly area, it goes back in the pool. Die and it is eliminated for at least an hour.

Doc came with the caveat, everyone has to ignore the Man Behind the Curtain. OZ must be a very strange land.

Wow - were they really doing that?

I never heard they were adding numbers, why would they? Another piece of urban legend? Point me toward that info, would like to see the source.

I might like it now, I dunno. Maybe I will try again around Christmas- we'll see. If the D.520 makes it, I will really try.

As for adding numbers, that comes from the WWIIOL BBS itself. The thread is almost a year old now, and I can't recall exactly how it was extrapolated, but it seemed a supportable concept. All I remember for sure was there were few fights to be found despite the numbers posted on the login. And yes, I do know how to find the numbers and the big fights...

The irony of that post and this one is great.

I'll ask MO about it, but knowing some rats I don't think they would do that. Was there speculation they did? I don't doubt it. Was it true, that I doubt.
