  1. God forbid you should criticize the video in any way. Youll get your comment removed, youll be unsubscribed and blocked lol. It just strikes me as a very poor quality tutorial. The voice actor sounds like he is reading and sounds like he is completely removed from the actual aircraft. Just sounds like hes reading a script and has no idea what it actually means. To me the video is plagued with the same boredom factor as the previous tutorials. Which is a disappointment, seeing as how there was some discussion about how superior the tutorials in this new edition were going to be..... 60 seconds in and your already PAINFULLY bored. Also, its youtube. dont post it there if you arent capable of dealing with criticism would be my advice. Before you decided to block subscriptions from your paying customers, perhaps you should have thought about what kind of message that sends. Am I to assume that simply by posting this criticism I can forget about ever receiving future support? Am I cut off now? Black listed? ED support: "oh THAT guy needs a new key, well screw him he can just pay for it again because he criticized the tutorial!" Thats definitely the message you sent when you removed my youtube subscription. Just for some criticism of the tutorial. As a customer, I REALLY dont appreciate that at all. I was genuinely alarmed by your reaction to some criticism that is truly needed to be heard if you guys are serious about improving in the future. I have purchased all of your products, but... Im not a mindless fanatic, im not going to applaud failure just for the sake of your feelings. Im not going to rally and say "oh yeah!", "awesome video!!", "great job on the tutorial!!", if thats not what I think about it. Anyway, I hope theres no hard feelings, just sharing an opinion.
  2. Interesting. Im curious though, why use the satellite dishes as opposed to more conventional building materials?

    Alien Swarm

    Hey Leafer, if you like the gameplay of Alien Swarm, you should check out the "Shadowgrounds" series.
  4. K im marking your words on my little notepad here. :P Ya know though, while I may not entirely agree with microsofts decision regarding aces studio, and what they have decided to do with the flight simulator series....... In light of the events of September 11th, and the fact that the cowardly racial slurs had been using microsoft flight simulator as a tool to practice and plan their cowardly attack. Can you really blame Microsoft for re-evaluating the future of the franchise?... As I said, I may not agree with the decision, but I can certainly understand, and respect their decision to take the series in a new direction. Personally I think it will be great for the genre. A heavy hitter coming back into the ring, can only serve to help reinvigorate the flight sim market. Obviously their intention will be to capture the experience and feeling of flight, igniting the imaginations of people young and old that so choose to play it, and for those that enjoy it, they will certainly find themselves on the flight sim road, searching out other sims, and thus fueling the market. Im keeping an open mind, and hopeful that "microsoft" or whoever is developing it, delivers something beautiful, if not entirely technically accurate. It may not be "HARDCORE" but who knows, it may just be FUN. :)
  5. Now THAT is a teaser! Very cool.
  6. Well whoever it is, they are definitely just toying with ALL of you. How many pages is this thing on now? You guys should stop feeding the troll. Im ashamed to even be posting in this nonsense, but I fear that if someone doesnt point out the obvious, this will just go on and on.............
  7. I must admit I am already eagerly anticipating the SOUNDTRACK. Keiki Kobayashi is way up there on my list of favorite composers in the industry. If you like to have some music on when you fly, then you will love his work. check this out, and do the song the justice it deserves and turn your speakers way up!!! http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgGPRcUgGNk oh yeah.
  8. looks like you have the ability to put some pretty good movies together. Looked good to me. The shots, and the editing were very good. Great Job. Personally I thought the camera shake seemed fine, it gave the feel that it was being filmed by someone with a handheld camera in another plane or something. If I was to change anything it would be that pop country song. If your gonna go country........go classic country. lol. Just kidding do whatever you want, and have fun lol.
  9. If you have a Flaming cliffs disc, you have unlimited activations. just insert the disc. you said you bought it years ago, so were talking Flaming Cliffs. Flaming Cliffs 2 is a different story. But since you dont have Flaming Cliffs 2, and you say you have a disc of Flaming Cliffs, you shouldnt be in any need of activations.........
  10. If you are running windows 7, or Vista, have you installed lockon into its own directory? You should not install lockon to its default location (program files) if you are using win 7 or vista.
  11. I use the Mouse wheel on the front side of the throttle. Up and down.
  12. Well after a long long time, after countless hours trying to fly with others............only to have timezone differences, mod issues, and the whole host of other obstacles ive encountered that stand in the way of getting practice............. I finally have a second PC that I have set up to be used for aerobatic formation flying using the phantom control mod. Im hoping that maybe some of the established teams and their members or members of the ed test team, or any qualified virtual pilots for that matter might be willing to donate some phantom tracks for me to practice with. Im not asking you to give me your show performance routine or anything. I just want some good solid practice. Im not trying to steal anything from anyone, I know how paranoid some people are about that........ I just want to have some fun. I think it would fun to have a bunch of different practice tracks to play with, in different areas, all that. Anyway it would be greatly appreciated if anyone can help me out. :) Thanks
  13. I was practicing missile evasion in the f-15 against another f-15 in a simple practice mission made for just such activities when this happened: Long story short my aim9 destroyed his incoming 120c. after digesting it some more through tacview, I was just wondering how common an occurance this is?.............
  14. my two cents: The in game voice features talked about here would be a very welcome feature if PROPERLY IMPLEMENTED (as stated in a previous post). One thing I dont like about the third party voice options, is that someone has to have a server, clients often use whatever server they can find to use.... so you end up with 20 people in a game on 7 different voice servers...... When you take into account coordinating different flights, and all this, it just doesnt work well for any sort of real team play. Nobody ever really knows what anybody, or everybody is doing.......... If we had the radio features implemented it would only serve to further optimize the fidelity and provide a much more immersive mp experience. Personally I dont really think we need a full on VATSIM or ATC type of implementation, just have a frequency for use for airports and what not, and other frequencies would be used for flights/task/team etc. Just like how you could tune into different radio towers on dcs ka-50, same thing as that, except it has voice.........
  15. basically, theres some trackir files in your config, and input folders ( at least thats where they were before FC2.0) delete those, restart trackir, restart the game, and it should work.
