Resetting the game millions of times != Exploiting bugs in the code. You're taking advantage of a feature with one method, and exploiting shoddy coding with the other.

I agree but hey I wasn't the DS. Privates and the odd Specialist at BCT aren't usually the ones making up the names.

Same here. Conscription or mandatory military service is probably the stupidest decision that Political Leadership can make unless there's an existential crisis like a Civil War or Invasion involving the State (in the Geopolitical sense) doing the Conscripting. Conscripts tend to not be motivated, they dont want to…

Yeah, I know. There's far too much crap in the Expanded Universe to reconcile and I realize that. Picking and choosing what stays and what goes would have been next to impossible. But the ranks seemed to be pretty static after Episode IV, so thats why I'm confused, its like he's wearing post-Battle of Yavin insignia,…

Y'know, I was thinking about that. He used to shove burning fuses in his beard too and usually a few in his hat. Psychological Warfare and such, made him look like what the 17th/18th Century British associated with the devil apparently.

Yeah, thats the smart thing to do.

He's really gonna hate life when he gets to his Basic Combat Training reception battalion with hair like that. Coming in with stupid looking hair is one of the ways people have their Drill Sergeant know their name early on, which is a very bad idea, especially during whatever they call Red Phase.

Did they fuck up the rank insignias already? Because his looks really strange.

"I'm sure it was also better than a not quite as good similar game"

I'm glad I never rented it. I tried it once, hated it, and promptly returned it to my friend who had made off with my Final Fantasy II before he could vanish with my cartridge.

No, no, its got to be Dr. Mario.

Fuck, Continuity of Government facilities, which probably contain about as much data as NSA/CSS collects but for even longer durations are bigger than it considering that most of Raven Rock, Cheyenne Mountain and Mount Weather are all underground.

Beautiful. Sounds like something I'd try to do if I was feeling creative enough.

This seems to be pretty common, YMMV but it happens to me a lot anyway. I'll eject and some schmuck with a sniper rifle or a Titan kills me before I can do much of anything, if anything at all. Or i'll get smashed before I even hit the ground, basically becoming a fly to a Titan's windshield.

I know what you mean, I've got colorful language (my Dad and grandfather were both Sailors, I was a Soldier, 'nuff said) and I'd probably give a kid a heart attack if I let loose with something along the lines of a pissed off Drill Sergeant after getting nailed with a shell and getting knocked into fourth in a close…

I got mine from UO. Same idea though. And when your server has an insanely bad macroing problem, it doesn't really behoove you to take a chance and macro like crazy without using some sort of a rate limiter.

Yeah ill be there for the discussion myself but, like you, I got the game on release day, I've played it so many times (Ive gotten all of the endings in both the SNES and DS versions, so at least 15 times, but probably more like 50) and really don't need another playthrough to be able to tell you pretty much…

Yeah it should if you both have fast enough PCs and reliable high speed internet connections that won't fall over. TeamViewer is a very powerful program that's also free of charge for non-commericial use, and there are others out there as well from the very cheap like Skype, to the very expensive like Lotus Sametime.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least in this game if you hear the re-entry sound effect and out of nowhere have a goat land right in front of you, crushing a human.

Dirk, Jonny Gomes never served in the Military, he has no fucking clue how it works except as an outside observer that may have family who have served or are serving. He did serve in Tampa Bay, an area that sucks and is like a warzone, but he probably lived somewhere else while playing for the Rays. I'm from Orlando,…
