Little help! Did anyone stay ata holiday inn express last night? :P
-
The sharks keeled like 50 262's because their range on their lazers were like 4k
-
I WANT SHARKS WIT LAZERS ATTACHED TO THEIR FRINKN HEADS!
Its to bad I wasn't there, I woulda laughed my donut off.
I did watch TC get a natural KOTH win last night.
WTG TC!

Any film?
-
LOL!
-
Any film?
Yeah, you got E-Mail?
-
What was the code for this one, please?
-
What was the code for this one, please?
what is the code for it? .showshark ?
:)

Im sure last night some sort of record was set for simultaneous Dr Evil impressions.

Here's some film. It's kind of fun to jump from shark to shark while watching the film.

:rofl :rofl :rofl OMG That funny!! :aok
-
What was the code for this one, please?
dunno :noid :noid :noid :noid :noid :noid
-
will someone put it on a file like wmv
-
code = .plane 99
-
What did they used for GV? T-REX with multiple rock boosters and stegosaurus w/ four M61 Vulcan guns?
-
code = .plane 99
Not it
-
what is it? i could finally live up to my callsign.........LITERALLY
-
Not it
ya it was
-
ya it was
Seriously?
-
Was only enabled for the Con attendees to takeoff with ..then it was disabled.
Very much a blast :)
Literally.
Left big holes in the ground ..usually one hit kills ..tuff to gauge the lead required since there was no bullet drop, but there was transit time to target.
Worked real well just gettin in close an blastin a plane to bits tho :)

it would be cool if the non attendants could acces it in the offline practice
-
Seriously?
Didn't work for me :/
-
What was ammo and fuel load like. Was it unlimited?
-
You got 40 gallons, but that lasted like a hour and a half. 200 laser shots.
-
never ran outta ammo or fuel :) .. got shot down a lot :)

Didn't work for me :/
A friend confirmed it was .plane 99, but I'm not sure. Maybe you have to do it in offline or something...?

Nope... was offline already.. .plane 98 is the T34/85, but .plane 99 is 'invalid model number'.
What terrain was used for the SeaBass Arena? Maybe it's built in.

Shark has gone the way of the stealth sheep, pizza man, and flying PT boats.... delegated to memories and pictures.

Dang, I want to try it at least once :(
-
I'm curious what aircraft model was used for the shark. Seemed to be pretty slow. Never really could tell if it was manueverable or not.

Another thing I asked a friend...no way they spent the time to build it ground up...it's top speed was 250 or so.

It was flight modeled on the RV8 (HiTechs Personal plane that is an easter egg on some maps). It was VERY maneuverable and a blast to fly. I just wish it had been a bit faster though!
-
For the last few hours it was enabled, someone (I assume an attendee) spread around the .plane 99 secret to access the shark to everyone listening to country chat on the rooks. It was only available at one field in the game, forgot which one, and the map was the same map that was up the whole weekend on the seabass arena.
What I remember about flying it:
-@ 75% fuel it had ~75 minutes of fly time (via E6B), full throttle.
-Had no WEP (maybe it did, but no variation in engine noise).
-No flaps or gear I could notice.
-No cockpit or instruments. The view you had was on the shark's forhead looking forward, between the nose and head-mounted lazer beam. You had a simple crosshair with a circle around it, a red number planted in the middle on the top of the crosshair was your lazzer ammo, I believe you had 200 rounds, might of been something like 220. There was a green number planted middle and below the crosshair, this was your speed.
-At level flight it would top speed of ~240, capable of diving much faster.
-It handled like a 2 pound RV8... It couldn't climb vertical (honestly I didn't push it to any limit, didn't know how long the time to fly them was enabled and didn't want to loose it trying to test the craft, it had a frigin lazer on its forhead and I had WW2-era things to shoot at with it), but I was climbing at ~70 degree angle, it was slow (~70mph) but no fear of stalling, the plane/shark felt like it was compforitable doing it, and I was quite happy with the near-vertical climb rate so I didn't push it any further.
-It took damage like a tank. It was destroyable, but I didn't notice any complex damage model, so no tails/fins were flying off the model (though I shot down one shark and noticed debree of some form falling from the model, just none of it related to any actual damage you had done). Seemed to me it took a beating and then boom, it would just explode when you took too much.
-Tail to nose length of the shark was a little less than 3 lengths of the P-51D I shot one down with, they were huge when you closed range on them (i got a good shot on him in the belly as I was climbing up to him, it must of took a good 4-5 seconds of constant 6x-.50cals there to make him go boom).
-The lazers acted a lot like rockets in the game and less like an actual gun round. They had no fall off and were pretty fast in traveling speed, just like... well a lazer, but when they impacted a target/surface they exploded just like a rocket in-game. *pew* *pew*... *capow!* *capow!* (attempt at lazer and resulting explosion noises made by impact)

That makes sense. It hadn't occured to me that it would be the RV8, but now that you say that it's kind of a forehead slapping duh moment.
-
Think someone said it was an RV8 with 100 extra horses.
-
$50 reward for the name of the Con attendee who leaked the shark code to SeaBass arena. :devil
-
It should be in the text buffer log file.....
-
i bet it was....lol

It could have been vox-ed to someone, and then THEY spread the word around...
