Gaming?

I, like William, am keeping up on all the latest Star Citizen developments. I am sure when that comes out my interest in modding and playing space flight sims will return to it's normal level. About the only gaming I've been doing is playing a racing simulation called Rfactor. Getting ready for the 24 hours of Daytona which takes place this weekend and kicks off the racing season for this year. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you, and be sure of this, I will be with you always even unto the end of the age. Mathew 28:20

I had a steering wheel and pedals ... the works. Great fun. I started to download the new versions but it is a huge file. Do they offer a hard copy version. I might consider getting back into it.

If you want to hang out with CaptainBlanc and I, we would definitely love to have you on board the Nosediver squadron. Our flight nights are every Sunday starting 6:30 pm ET.

Fleet Admiral Posts: 1918 Joined: 14.12.12	Thanks, I'm not ready for co-op or even solo play yet. Besides, If I remember correctly, I will have to download some very large files to fly with you guys. What craft are you guys flying currently? I'm also considering getting "Rise Of Flight".

The current version we are flying is 4.11 (I think) and the file is a little over 260MB zip compressed. We fly all kinds of fighters; anything from P-40s to Bf 109s. Right now we are in a European campaign flying P-51 Ds. The other guys do Rise of Flight on Fridays (around 6ish ET I believe). I'm unable to play it since the intense graphics causes my pitiful video card to choke up and freeze.

Fleet Admiral Posts: 1734 Joined: 14.12.12	Yes, they always do settle down during the summer. Till then I will do my best to work on Knighthawks when I can.

Lieutenant Posts: 25 Joined: 19.04.14	I wanted to get back into online gaming with Aces High, sounds like it's similar to the WW2 flight sim you guys are playing. My poor old machine just can't handle it anymore, though. So it's strictly old games until I upgrade, probably next summer. Going to be too busy with racing (motorcycle roadracing) this year (between race weekends and the $$$$ they cost, I ain't spending it on a computer any time soon).

Fleet Admiral Posts: 1918 Joined: 14.12.12	Salutations, "Rise Of Flight", more or less, requires a powerful computer to enjoy. It sure is a beautiful game though. How dare you let "real life" pursuits interfere with your cyber activities! B)

Fleet Admiral Posts: 1734 Joined: 14.12.12	Yes, Wylann, shame on you. Just kidding of course. It happens to us all. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you, and be sure of this, I will be with you always even unto the end of the age. Mathew 28:20

Fleet Admiral Posts: 1918 Joined: 14.12.12	Yea, in a real life kind of way. I once raced motocross. Up into my thirties anyway.

Fleet Admiral Posts: 1734 Joined: 14.12.12	Very cool. I used to do some racing as well. I prefer 4 wheels though. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you, and be sure of this, I will be with you always even unto the end of the age. Mathew 28:20
