I must say, I am truly impressed!
on: August 26, 2008, 11:55:37 pm
Hello all. Some may remember me as Joey_21 from wayyy back in the day aka that annoying noob who was enthusiastic about modding but failed horribly. ;)

-Fast forward through college years.-

I just recently happened to re-install FS2 and I decided to check out the action at good ole Hard Light. For the past hour or so I have been checking in on the SCP. I downloaded all of the basic files to try out the new features and I was just blown away. I fired it up at 1280x1024 with all of the new effects checked and my PC actually lagged a bit during gameplay.  :lol: At any rate, it's completely gorgeous.  :yes:



I may decide to stick around pending how things go IRL, etc. I'm loving what I'm seeing

Looks like he prefers Rockeyes over Tempests...and he's either really good or on Very Easy.

That's all I have to say. ;)                  and that Hat looks good, I need to upgrade my computer.
His legacy will last until the beginning.

You have to work pretty hard to do poorly on that mission...if you keep losing the Psamtik, you're probably doing it wrong. :p

I actually didn't bother with the ship loadout information. I was too anxious to see the new 3d goodness. ;) Mmmm

Also, I hadn't played in a while so I wasn't sure how good I would be.  :o Very easy wins. :yes:

If you turn traitor and destroy the Iota transports, the Belisarius pulls a Koth and rams the Psamtik. You then get to join the NTF and assassinate Admiral Petrarch by slipping poison into his orange juice.

That doesn't narrow it down very much.  :P

Anyway, you were probably before my time, so welcome back.

Oh, no? That's why I'm an advanced noob. Because I immediately admitted that I'd fail horribly in modding and never even tried.

Heh... oddly enough, i always respect your opinions, because even if you don't know how to solve a problem, you can still tell people how to solve their... er, problems. plus you have common sense.
