Its taken me a few days to absorb the update
« on: August 04, 2009, 02:14:25 PM »
   Lastnight a few of us set up a patrol between an enemy base and one of or v bases to the south. Flying around up high,looking down at the coastline, the slopes of the mountains and the valleys in between, I called my wife in to say "Look what they've done to the graphics in here". She said "Wow, it looks real!" I agreed. It really looks great. No more hard lines between tiles, and lousy looking coastlines.

    You guys did a really nice job with this. When we dove down on a set of lancs trying to slip between a gap in the mountains, it all had a feel of real mountains, not just some green thing with farms growing out the side of them.

  Thanks!

I still have a very hard time adaptin to the water. I can't tell the depth different, so in slow and low tnb or BnZ at high speed it's just super hard to tell in 3rd space where I am and going. Been drinkin a lot of sea water last 2 days!

He was ok when he took his meds.

He had a ways to go as a cartoon pilot though.

Yup..... I always thought some of those fellas were ok till they publicly fell on their faces recently. To MW they are like a wart.

Not a whole lotta people have been hated by so many in this game. Gotta be a record in there somewhere.

I liked Storch. He was colorful.  Every community needs a couple of those.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.
