I saw Superfly was logged into the forum the other day. But I certainly wouldn't put much stock into any of it.

Is he ever happy any more? From his topics, it seems his world is falling apart. Maybe we should all pitch in for some Super Glue and a pack of Plastic Zip Ties to help him pull it all back together. Hmmm and maybe I can mix him a large blender of frozen margaritas to get him back on the path of happiness.

On the T1600 with throttle from thrustmaster.  The throttle on this unit is a real crap shoot.  I have two.  Both are crapy.  Amazon has a note of warning that these units are often returned.

This guy in the video gave it a thumbs up.

I've had two T1600 as well. I was hoping the first one was just a lemon. Both go twitchy after a couple months of use. It also did not advance smoothly. It ended my relationship with TM that went back to the early 90ies. There is no reason to put out such garbage at that price point. You can get a Winwing stick with a built in throttle for about the same price. After using Winwing stuff like the Ursa Minor I have no plans to ever buy any more TM garbage.

I would not trust any review that gave that thing a thumbs up.

Nothing of consequence has been changed in at least 8 years, especially gunnery/ballistics

If you are talking about last nights map,  the ack is always stronger on a couple of maps.  Had to say if the ack is more accurate or more powerful.  Again only a couple of maps have higher performing auto ack.

Did you verify this looking in the arena settings, or are just giving an opinion?

Well that’s funny because Kenai77 designed that map…

Not that I have ANY problem with the Ack as it is now. I think it’s fantastic and more realistic.

Cybro my guess is a way to monitor text and voice bad behavior.  If I find it, I do destroy it anyway.
