Caught me by near-surprise, but downloaded and installed the latest and greatest version. There aren't too many new features that I would have cause to use, though. Mozilla is just about perfect as a web browser for me, and I honestly wouldn't do a thing to change it. http://www.descentbb.net/ubb/wi...

This was posted on Volition Watch a few days ago. Since some people were interested in getting their hands on FreeSpace 2, this might come as welcome news: "We just had a meeting about it this morning. There will be 2000 copies available, and only through the Interplay store. They will be numbe...

... good? I still think they shouldn't have sequeled Chrono Trigger. It's a game that stands well enough on its own. And, especially if you're going to do a sequel, make it feel like the original. Chrono Cross was such a departure (plot tie-ins aside) that it just wasn't as cohesive or cool. http://...

Zion Long since decommissioned and written off as derelict, Post-Terran's former orbital research laboratory Zion Station has found new life as a battle arena for mercenary pilots. Those who stop to admire the view of Earth will be sorely mistaken when their ships are reduced to scald marks on the m...

I "leave" for a month and what do we have? Hmm, no 1.5. Surprise surprise. Y'know, I'm sure Kevin is a great guy. A busy guy. But really, com'on here. If he's serious about the patch, the least he could do is post a monthly status report. That's not asking for much, is it? Maybe 10 minutes...

The blurriness of the foreground is really distracting. It makes it look like it exists behind the planets and stars because that's simply how blurriness works - things in the distance generally appear blurry, not things close to us.

Though I bet things have changed a bit, my old Inspiron (P3 650 MHz era) was very reliable. I had no major problems with it in the entire time I've used it. Which is more than I can say about the current Dell desktop, but that's another rant for another time.

Am I the only one that thinks the International Space Station was a slightly dumb idea? I mean, realistically, the thing can be taken out by one tiny, wayward asteroid. Did it ever occur to anyone that a base on the moon would probably be more feasible? If we return to the moon, a long-term objectiv...

Going to space, exploring, and eventually living on other planets is inevitable.

How we get there concerns the present.

Looks a bit repetitive, and the blue lights cast an ugly greenish hue on the walls in the top picture. Wouldn't recommend using blue in that scenario. Maybe don't place the blue lights in the same recessed pit as the other lights? Second picture - a bit dark and the >>>>> construction stripes seem o...

Couple ideas: - The only high-res PTMC logo I found in Descent 3 was in the Mercenary briefing screens. It has the basic features of the one in D1/D2, but it's definitely a rendered model and has a hint of Descent 3's cartoonish CG sequences. If you want me to, I can try to extract this one. Come to...

Well, it's true. You don't see people flying planes into the CN Tower or bombing Japan's skyscrapers (sans their own internal yakuza groups). You meddle in the affairs of other countries and you'll not only make allies, but also vindictive enemies. But that choice was made decades ago. The US is cle...

I suppose the difference with firebombing is that there is some off chance the people can escape. I realize it decimated cities and killed hundreds of thousands.

But a nuke - you have no fleeting chance in hell of getting away. You're vaporized before you know what happened.

The war in Iraq is done when it's done. Really, we've gotten this far. We've taken out Saddam Hussein and his sons. His regime is pretty much dead meat. And the cells of resistance will eventually dry up when the idiots realize it's their own futures and welfares they are jeopardizing. So, that said...

As terrifying as the nuclear bomb was, it's one of those awful decisions that no one should have to suffer. When the bomb was dropped, Japan witnessed its awesome destruction that rattled through its military and forced their surrender. Had the bomb not been dropped, there is no telling how many mor...

Could have, should have, would have. It's all about the right hand knowing what the left hand is doing. In a government as vast and far-reaching as ours, it's sadly not always obvious. Do I think that we could have prevented it? Even if we knew all of the pieces, it's still ultimately questionable. ...

I still think it would have been easier to shoot the coward and find out who he was later. Remember Ixnay and Quday (or whoever they were?).

Perhaps you should listen to your friend Bush a bit better. As he said in the last press conference, the US had a disagreement with France and Germany over how to handle Iraq. That does not make us mortal enemies, more at allies that simply couldn't agree on the best perceived solution. I don't hone...

Just remember who you'll come crying to when you are the victim of a serious crime. The idea that police have "too much power" is absurd when you have criminals, who play by no rule book, running around tripped out on mind-altering drugs, armed with AK-47s, and with a ruthless disregard fo...

No, that's just when Mobius plans to leave Descent 3 for other pastures, so it must be dead in his eyes! http://www.descentbb.net/ubb/wink.gif Gah.

You're never going to stop the cheating. Some loser will sit behind a computer for hours and figure a way around it. That's just the way some people are.

To elaborate on what I said before - There was a mass hallucination when Skyrat released Skybox that custom textures would not work on the Macintosh. This is absolutely false! The truth is, he improperly set up the table files used in Skybox. Let's set the record straight - when the level designer d...

I would still argue with Garner than the low custom texture/low custom object values are bugs in a way. http://www.descentbb.net/ubb/smile.gif You also forgot the Level 13 bug where one of the Guidebot objectives is never Completed. From Moon's Descendarium: "Dan McMillan from Outrage said this...
