    Pads / Tablets 2012

    The Acer A700 is really a beauty...

     

    Most probably will cost one arm and one leg... but is really a nice gadget. With those kind of specs can be an easy Laptop replacement.

     

    Actually, as a productivity gadget, when you get the right software (such as Office), you can accomplish all of the most common tasks you would use your laptop for.

     

    Besides not being able to play games for Windows a tablet like this is very nice. I am still in love with the Thrive but this one is very nice.

    Broken headset need help

    I do not use fancy headphones, my model is a very light and simple one, 15 bucks. What i like in it is that instead to go over head it goes behind your neck. Microphone is decent, but for sure i have no "Hi-Fi Surround Sound" .. it is what it is :)

     

    I know hajimoto has a very good one, you may wanna ask him :)

     

    This is what i got:

    Then, you wanna be fancy and buy the exact same shit BUT with a Logitech Brand, get this :)

    However, they are nice and light. I cannot stand those big heavy stuff on my head :)

    Russia - Ghost Recon: Future Soldier Gameplay

    .. Toward the end, did he destroy a BTR with 3 frag grenades ??

     

    I don t know.. I am very skeptical about this game.

     

    I just don t understand why they decided to go to this arcadish, console style with the hybrid 3rd person view (becoming 1st person when using optics).

     

    I just can t take a Ghost Recon game like this seriously.

     

    All of these gadgets, Thermal vision, Radar vision ( I don t know how to call it when he switch to that view to see ppl inside the buildings)... It seems to me there are too many visual aids.

     

    Ok, it is called Future Soldier but is there any real connection with stuff potentially available? If they were calling it G.I. JOEs was making any difference?

     

    Probably can be a nice game to play but calling it "Ghost Recon" is just offensive to the franchise IMO.

    Lol Skaz !! yeahh I am addicted to Mechs !! ...

     

    But you know.. just because i m pretty sure the ppl having fun on Tanks can be great on Mechs, that s the reason why i hope they will give it a shot :)

     

    Gunthar.. think about.. Being a Lance Commander... 4 mechs (or 6) and all of the destruction you can bring during a Clan War !! oufff...

    New MechWarrior game inbound

    Actually i would suggest to wait to better see the perks on being House related regiments.

     

    Although "merc" sounds cool, I read somewhere they have some solid limits to evolve withing the Universe because they are not related to any House, therefore they do not have direct perks the House may offer.

     

    I am not saying is bad.. I m just saying we may want to see what is good to be related to a House. Most probably it comes with better technology, provided by the House itself ;)

    ArmA 2 PvP mode - CTI - capture the island

    in ARMA 2

    Posted · Edited by Batwing~SPARTA~

    So, I am trying to get closer to Arma, a beautiful game I left apart a few months ago.

     

    Yesterday I had an interesting session with Karl, Scorpion and Overseer. They are actually playing an intriguing PvP version called CTI

     

    If I should compare the Mod to something we all know I would say the BF3 Conquest. But this is the only comparison can be made.

     

    This MOD allows very interesting options. I will try to explain the basic but if any of the "Veteran" players wanna jump in and tell us more, I am sure it may sparkle some interest in other ppl too.

     

    All is based on money. With money you can buy assetts to use during your Conquest task. The more you kill enemies and conquer objectives, the more you get reward you can use.

     

    You can play in several ways. Joining an ongoign team of peers, alone and creating a Squad of AIs (potentially way more than a squad) to help you to achieve your goals, or just Both.

     

    So, of course maps are huge. you have to travel to get to towns where you will conquer Main Base and Bunkers, then you move on. Classic Conquest concept.

     

    What intrigues me is probably the Commanding aspect. You can create a Squad, Platoon, whatever.. the size is limited only by how many units you can control and the money you have to spend on them.

     

    I really would like to learn more and play this mod with others, this can be very interesting.

     

    NOTE:

    I forgot to say, we played this on totally Vanilla OA, no mods allowed.

    Arma 2 install < issue>

    in ARMA 2

    EBE, if you have a problem with the download, we can try to figure out a way for me to give you my download, which is patched up to 1.59.

     

    Then as soon as you run it, it will ask for your Key code and you put yours.

     

    However is a very large download and it may take ages to go thru. Also the download I am talking about is OA only, not ARMA2

     

    My stuff for this game is NOT Steam.

    Arma 2 install < issue>

    in ARMA 2

    Posted · Edited by Batwing~SPARTA~

    I am installing Arma again as we speak too.

     

    What i did was Arma 2 first. Complete install, do not launch at all.

     

    Then Arma2 Operation Arrowhead on the same Folder where Arma2 is. I got Arma2 OA from SpRocket (BIS store), That is already the latest ArmaOA patched at 1.59

     

    On top of that I will install BAF and PMC, all of samer folder

     

    On top of that I will patch with latest 1.60 patch.

     

     

    I do believe 1.60 goes only on top of 1.59, therefore you have to patch on 1.59 first (if your cversion doesn t come already patched like mine) and then 1.60

     

    EDIT:

    in meanwhile i m drinking some good red wine.. therefore some issue may arise anyway....
