I know I saw two [MWLA] members tonight (and failed at getting their attention :P). So who all plays, what name do you play under, and on what server? Maybe we could designate an unofficial PSU DC server :D

I play under the name Tankgirl, although 99% of the time in DC I fly choppers :angel: I would switch to using Led... but... nah :D

I found the greatest server tonight, Desert Combat Gibix.com, 48 players max and LONG rounds (unlimited time, and 3k tickets! :D). IP is 216.83.49.6:14567

I tried to get your attention a few times :D

"Hey, Squeeky, you the same one from PSU?"
"Squeeky!"
"HEY! MANWHORE! PAY ATTENTION!#%"

None worked, I guess you were all too busy yelling at that 7-11 guy :O_O:

You missed my extreme display of ownage last night hamma. Although I was the one getting owned it was still amazing lol. :lol:

Damn airfield camping bastards. Was trying to screw around with the planes most of the game but some whores in their A10's were straffing the airfields like plane nazis. :nazi:

Let's play some tonight after I get home from work. I need to pick up my damn joystick from my friend though. Was trying to fly with my mouse yesterday... was a sad sad display of flying. :tear:

I have no idea why, but I just cannot fly with a joystick. Maybe the one I had was just not right for me, but I fly best with the mouse :O_O:

I can't stand NOT having a joystick. Heh, I just find it not precise enough. and also being able to do everything with one hand is nice. BTW, I use a Sidewinder Force Feedback

Maybe if I got one of those joystick and throttle combinations (seperate units for each, not all in one base), and definetly without that crappy joystick twist for rudder junk, I might be able to get along with using one ;)

Just go with what you know!

I wonder if BF1942 or Planetside supports those types of joysticks. I don't mind controlling my throttle with the keyboard but those seperate throttle controls for joysticks are just damn cool.

I had my eye on this: http://www.saitekusa.com/usa/prod/x45.htm , but they are kind of expensive :( I aint really all that willing to buy it for just the cool factor, when I can already fly my Apache in circles around migs with just a mouse :D

The handles themselves look really cool but the square base just bugs me.

Sputty

Nice joystick. I've found my sidewinder to be good enough. BTW..thgose Mig pilots must suck :p Although alot of BF1942 pilots have no idea what they're doing. I love taking out nA10's with the tank's maingun because their angle of attak was perfect for that. some people just don't know how to dive.

Unfortunately in that game last night we didn't have a tank protecting our airfield so those damn A10's kept strafing our planes to hell. They were also doing a good job of getting us with their guns as well. Was pretty lame. If there wasn't someone strafing the airfield there was a tank sitting at the end of it shooting into our hangar.

They toned up the A10s cannon, it was not taking out tanks fast enough. It takes out tanks well enough now... but the problem is, it one shots everything else :( Hell it can even sink a destroyer in two seconds of cannon fire x_x

I am just bitter because n00bwads kept coming into the game, grabbing an A10, and railgunning my chopper out of the sky, and thinking they owned everything :ugh:

They need to add SAM soldiers and SAM vehicles/sites.

OOo that's what I need in bf1942, a railgun!! :rock:

On a side note I just saw a crane accidentally drop 2 honey buckets onto a steel beam. The honey buckets hit the beam and fell about 30 ft onto a temporary roof they have going or something and now they are sitting sideways on the roof right now lol. hahahahaahahaha :rofl:

|oR| and it's affiliates aren't bored enough yet with BF1942 to have installed DC yet, but man.. DC does look sweet.

DC = dreamcast of course. lol actually DC is Desert Combat. It's a mod for BF1942 with modern weapons/vehicles.
