  1. Intel has the superior processors right now, mainly in the architecture and overclocking abilities, not necessarily the gHz.
  2. I have never had a completely 'state-of-the-art' computer, which is why I can recognize that my computers are not the best ever, but they do serve me well for most games and I can appreciate them for what they do. I spent $539 on a refurbished Gateway desktop a few years ago and yes, it was already outdated. However, it still is far better than anything I have had previously and expanded my potential games library by a thousandfold over my previous computer. If given the choice, I would buy it again. Nothing else in that price range came close. I\'m not entirely sure if you understand this point of view, Radsoc.
  3. I used to be a Hispanophobe like you, but then I took a Spanish class to the mind. As long as there is dual translation, I don\'t mind, but I do know what upsets you. It\'s not really that it\'s Spanish, it\'s that you don\'t understand it and thus fear/dislike it. Simple psychology tells me that much, and explains why education is a good thing. Languages are cool, but also very difficult to learn, English notoriously so, as it is a mixture of well over three different languages. I no longer harbor any resentment towards foreign languages or their speakers, but rather see it as a challenge to figure out how much I can decipher from the latin and muy pequeno Espanol yo se ;P
  4. And by avatar-style, you mean Command & Conquer Orcas, right? ;P Looking great, and it looks like I have to update this mod again. EDIT: In regards to air breathing engines, the 1m pulling props quit working for me around 10km. Anyone else have different results? (I want to figure out if it\'s a hard code or if it depends on the structure of the planes)
  5. If the precision control doesn\'t help, what you need is less control surfaces. Have heavy lift flaps? Swap them out for the default ones. Have twenty flaps all over your plane? Cut half of them off. ;P
  6. Welcome to the forums! Happy Launching! Arrr! Cap\'n Cardgame (and nevermind the impostors) For specific tips and other help, you\'ll want to check out the How To section. My broad advice is to keep your craft small and slowly increase their size if needed. Burn straight up to about 45,000 meters or slightly higher before pitching over if you want to achieve orbit. This lets you get out of the denser part of the atmosphere so you\'ll get further on less fuel. Always keep an eye on your Nav Ball on the bottom center of the screen, it has many helpful icons. If you\'re not familiar with rocket terminology, learning the meanings of prograde and retrograde may help.

  8. \' : Where do you live, Australia?* Computers are no longer the insanely expensive machines they once were, and you can get a fine gaming machine for under a grand. *Mad VAT tax and overpriced components due to outdated values of AUS dollar, shipping, etc
  9. For $850 that is horrible. DDR3 VRAM? Edit: well I did not notice the inclusion of a monitor, 'premium' keyboard, etc. Nevertheless, you could do far better with something else, and I find it highly suspect that they do not mention the resolution on that monitor.

  11. Had a moment about a month ago where my spaceplane fuselage (the rest had been ripped off) began to spin uncontrollably and violently after hitting a texture seam. It fell into the ocean and kept bobbing up and out of the water, splashing back in and thrashing violently before jumping out again. I had a few pictures, but decided it did not do the event any justice at all, so I deleted them. Video is required, really; it\'s just so bizarre.

  14. If ASAS is shaking your plane to pieces, slow down and/or decrease how many flaps you have or how powerful your flaps are.

  16. Eleanor Rigby isn\'t any of the things you mentioned, Allenwr.
