Yes, that's the only explanation! :D

You're a tough match. Are you playing with a Joystick or plain mouse + keyboard? ;)

a joystick, sidwinder precision 2, I got it in 2002 after I upgraded the ram in my computer from 64mb ram to 256mb so that I could finally progress past the junkyard mission (all that junk floating around was wreaking havonc on my crappy system at the time)

those seekers are nasty, not like fighting NPC's

Woah nice - SideWinder guy here, too ;) I own the Force Feedback Pro.

That's the one with the big motors that need an extra power supply and light sensors inside that should never wear out. (Microsoft replaced them in later models when they realized they couldn't sell new Joysticks if they never break :D ).

Works fine on any OS I have (Win XP, 7 or Linux), although I need Windows XP for Force Feedback support.

I'm playing I-War on a Quad here with 4GB RAM. Back in the days on my old P3 with a NVidia TNT2 this game surely made the machine get hot :D

damn those bots are nasty, if only they were that nasty in singleplayer, it would have made the game more interesting without needed all the mods.

Im dissapointed we haven't been able to get a match going with more then 2 or 3 players in it. com'on guys! lets go to war!

The problem is the time difference. When you're here, I'm almost asleep and probably shouldn't be up anymore :D

The bot difficulty can be changed in flux.ini - they are a bit too hard for my taste, I might adjust that.

FLUX: [unknown] ** Stats for player "MP_NAME_RichardSkinner"
FLUX: [unknown] kills 0
FLUX: [unknown] shots 350
FLUX: [unknown] missiles 16
FLUX: [unknown] shots on target 0
FLUX: [unknown] missiles on target 4


So many shots and no kills? Damn, you're getting old :lol:

whaaat, thats a bunch of bull. I got 9 kills and 0 deaths my last match with the bots. and I know I got a few yesterday

so far the heavy corvette has been the way to go it seems.

i like the idea of stats being tracked tho.. if only they told the truth B)
