Looks like on the AGW they are bashing HT and the AH pilots because the train doesn't look good and that they can do a hell of alot better.

Run with it..<G>

Aw, comon, that was the Scale train modelers.  What do you expect?  I think it looks cool as hell(and I am a modeler).

I gotta figure that programming in a path for the AI train to follow, then aligning it to within a few feet of of textured track tiles would be a pretty excruciating process. Maybe not though. I doubt I'll even notice this when I'm flyin'. Simple fact of the matter is we've got it and they don't.

Didn't they spend a great deal of time over at AGW bashing any flight sim that would include ground vehicles?

Tell those AGW dweebs we don't give a flying f**k how far the train is off the tracks -> coz when my tiffie hits it the tracks won't matter no more.

LOL! just read the thread.
  • They take credit for the idea of adding trains to a WW2 sim :rolleyes:
  • Iceman tells everyone that "they should see what they have done up... only we aren't going to show you yet... or release it yet... because we don't want to right now... not because its not really done... and definately not because we have no idea how to impliment it
  • They make fun of the graphics
  • they make fun of the fact that it doesn't line up perfectly with the tracks
  • They get to cling dearly to the prospect of trains... afterall... its all they have right now. :D
Cracks me up.

AGW guys are tards for saying they thought of it first.  AH BBS guys are bigger tards for starting a thread here about this "snub".   :D

Well ya know... that's the reason HT is adding it to AH. It's because they asked for it first on WB.

right... <insert sarcastic tone here>

It had nothing to do with the strat tantrums here. The whole thing is a silly as Ford drivers pointing fingers at Chevy drivers and vice versa.

Oh... and nice jab on AGW, DJV... That oughta stir 'em up.

Hey, I remember driving trains in Mac AW in 1995, so AW was first, technically <g>

Had to have a CM enable them, they were useless, ugly, and did not drive on tracks. Just a string of a few grey boxes put together. But they were trains, man!  :)

It's hilarious that all they can complain about is how it doesn't line up with the tracks.  :rolleyes: Didn't anyone bother to read HT's post?  It says that it is an EARLY look at what's to come.  Tards!
