Thanks guys

Yeah, you pretty much answered my question. Got me searching Wikipedia for tactics. I came up with the info about the computer controlled guns in the game … MRSI http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artillery#Time_on_Target … “Multiple Rounds Simultaneous Impact”, at least I think that’s what’s going on. I don’t play multiplayer, not yet anyway. Not sure how much of this I can do in SP (AIX mod http://aixtended.com ). We’ll see

I’m not sure where exactly they are, but it has to do with how files are handled…

Thanks Ole,
The Save Target As worked fine. What settings need to be changed in IE7?

You have to change your browser settings. Or try to right-click and choose Save Target As or Save Link As.

I can’t seem to download the mp3. Everytime I press the download button it opens in media player. What gives?

Yeah I think it’s a matter of how you learn, joystick or mouse/keyboard. Because I tried mouse/keyboard and it seems impossible to me now that I’m used to the Joystick

JOYSTICK!

I dont have a twisty type joystick and i can control 3rd axis fine.

I configure my left right thump buttons for strafe in jets, and in helos I make them rotate the chopper.

But I any day will prefer mouse for choppers and jets I find I can be more precise with mouse when using jets. Also Ive used mouse more so I may just be used to it.

I’m with you Ole, the first time I listened to the Podcast it did sound like Heekwon said “Keepers”… So you wasn’t the only one!!!… Though I did see flying monkey’s in the video! (haha!)

Yeah, the Frostbite video was weird. I had to convert it because my video editing software wouldn’t accept the original file from DICE. Sorry about that

Hee, no worries

Love’d the Dice video. I like the way the combine fact and humor to get the message deliverd. To bad the audio and video were out of sync. Or maybe it was only on my computer?

About the joystick buttons;
I have a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro. I only use the primary and secondery weapon buttons and two additional for afterburner and chafs. The stick has o total of 12 buttons. It also comes with a Logithech Profiler program wich alows you to record macros and asign them to a button, kinda like on the G15 keyboard. I have never used the function but now when I listend to the show it hit me that perhaps it’s possible to record a macro for spotting enemy assets. For example one button for spotting a heli and one for apc and so forth. Has anyone used this function?

As always, nice show guys!
