Sorry if I upset you there Stryke mate, I was only enquiring as to the rules governing such matters. So we know where we stand, style of thing. If you're ever over here, drop by my gaff, and I'll but you a pint and we'll all be happy again.

Out of interest, what happens to me once you've put me on your **** list? Is there anyone else on it that I might know? You've piqued my curiosity now :)


[EDIT] Just thought - IIRC, weren't you demanding for one of the Iraq threads to be closed a little while back?

I periodically wreak revenge on whoever's still on there whenever I get bored, until they apologize and reform their ways or cover their ass so effectively I can't get at them any more. Last time was tracking down all the email addys and sending them to Westwood, some porn spam thing and the "Gator Network" thing.:D


Razor: Yes, it was.
Webpage. Yes.

Mmmmm... Tachyon. That tided me well before I-War2. Shame the graphics were so... odd.  So many things done right (sound, scale, missions, ship design, nebulae) and then the graphics were... they weren't low res, but you'd think they were... and they weren't grainy, bu t you'd almost think they were... DAMN good game though. Needs a sequel. :D

Tachyon: good but buggy as hell

I don't think they'll be making a sequel, I don't think it sold too well (or did it?)

Was it buggy? I don't recall having any problems with it.

I played the Tachyon demo on me DeltaForce 2 CD, and liked it a lot. I was gonna get Tachyon, but I heard that FS2 was better and already out, so I duly went out and got it. Therefore, I have NovaLogic to thank, of all people, for my love affair with FS2 :)

BTW, I tried to play Tachyon quite recently... :ick

I've heard reports of bugginess and such from other people too.
On my comp it'll only run properly half the time, and crash the rest.
It may have been fixed after my win 2k update though. (not sure, haven't played it recently)

But of course, bugginess is quite controversial....
(on the late red faction forums people would always shout at the others "ITS NOT BUGGY, U R AN IDIOT!" and others would say "ITS BUGGY, BOO VOLITION")

It worked fine for me, nor do the graphics look bad.  (I always liked them, but the nebulas where better in FS).  But I also did hear about others not having success with the game.  Must just be a combination of game and system being happy with each other (or not.)

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil
