FSO Playthrough at SomethingAwful

Someone is playing through all of FS2 using FSO and posting a video plathrough over at Something Awful.  Thought that this might be of interested to some of us.
If a man consults whether he is to fight, when he has the power in his own hands, it is certain that his opinion is against fighting.

Re: FSO Playthrough at SomethingAwful
They do. HLP was mentioned in the very first post. However, they just don't really care. And I am not going to register there just to point them here.

I see them mention the SCP but no real mention of where it comes from or anything like that.

Well, I'm in the same boat as you. I don't join every forum I come across just to make one small point. If I join a forum, I'm staying.

Re: FSO Playthrough at SomethingAwful
They all seem to know about the SCP and be pretty up to date, and one guy mentioned finding an ATI fix on HLP.

If they were here I'd be more tempted to correct/suggest/etc **** for them cuz omg my eyes bleed :<

and after everything we've seen here maybe even more.
I know we're not the only ones, and we were not the first,

Yeah, but that's only because you're one of the few here who's done an Insane playthrough. Don't forget the rest of us. :blah:

Re: FSO Playthrough at SomethingAwful
someone tell him to turn the subspace flash effect on, I didn't implement that so HD vids could be made of the game without it on.
[edit]nevermind he turns it on later and points it out[/edit]

also tell him that linking primaries cuts the fire rate in half, so if your fighter has asymmetric weapon load-outs you are going to do less damage per second than if you just used the larger bank. i.e. if you use 1 bank with 4 slots with a weapon that fires 3 times a second it will fire 4*3 = 12 bolts a second, whereas if you link with a 2 slot bank you will get 6*1.5=9 bolts a second. linking is only useful if you are combining the strengths of one weapon to overcome the weaknesses of another, or if your fighting style is to place well aimed shots infrequently.

someone should also mention that the hapshepsut shown in the vids is the original model, and a link should be dropped to the thread detailing the development of the new one.
