Nefarious, I'll be honest--- Getting WWIIO to run well on your machine is an UP-hill battle.

That's a shortcoming of their documentation, and a very REAL obstacle for newcomers. Solutions are only a question away, though, on their boards, or in-game.

<t>Les, I'm about to get in-game myself. If you play Allied Brit, you can click on one of the radio channels that aren't taken already & once you do, you'ss see a cursor appear in the radio bar. Type "wheelz" (no quotes) and you will effectively tune ME as a channel.<br/>
<br/>
I'll answer any ...

<t>David, you should've seen what we did to the open beta of Second Life. LOL! We took it over, literally. The devs built us our own area just to watch us and our military approach at coordination & dominance.<br/>
<br/>
It was to the point that IGN.com, in their preview of it, called us out as a ...

<t>Merciful, you forgot teh Matrix..... they need their props too, and I really like their logo.<br/>
<br/>
Something like that new screen Rafter did with the game that was the WWIIO in bold with a smaller Matrix logo to the top-middle-left would ro><. Something similar for the shirtpocket.<br/>

*points up at Plastic*

This guy's the head of a squad that has about 80 guys & gals.

On a related note, you really should consider a thong. Word has it Plastic's wife is teh babeage.... he'd probably post pics.

<r>I REMEMBER that!<br/>
<br/>
That was a really good time. <E>:)</E> I'm not much of a tanker..... well, I'm <I><s>[i]</s>pretty<e>[/i]</e></I> good I guess, but every now & then I get lucky. I'm a LOT better at flying now, and I'm pretty proud of that considering how tough it is against the Axis ...

<r>Yes, I was at the Babbages as the UPS guy delivered the box. I didn't join the Third until a couple months later. I just looked around for about 10 minutes & said "Pfft!" I thought I'd wasted my money.<br/>
<br/>
Looking back on that now, I just laugh. It's hands-down the best game I've ever ...

<r>We're accustomed to the lightning-fast forums, Les. <E>:)</E><br/>
<br/>
If David makes a special one for us, I do hope you'll come look in there, too. That's the reason I'm not just posting on the Playskool forums. (that's our little home)<br/>
<br/>
All our guys are just happy to have found ...

<t>Hmmm... good question. The game mechanics, however, require you to work in large groups to be successful, and in anticipation of that, we always fight with the Brigade on our ops.<br/>
<br/>
The Brigade spawning is still a "soon" feature, but I have little doubt they'll have that in shape. They ...

This is an incredibly-done movie by one of our Japanese players. If you saw ...

<r>LOL! I <I><s>[i]</s>knew<e>[/i]</e></I> it was you!<br/>
<br/>
Yeah, I flip when things are FUBAR, but I make valid points & always try to discuss them rationally. Unless they ignore me. *tic* :p<br/>
<br/>
Anyway, oh man.... SO much has changed. They added attrition, depot spawning, and again ...

<t>If I'm not mistaken, you were in MY squad, agua. Is that right? 3RTR?<br/>
<br/>
In any case, you're right, it did absolutely blow chunks for a long time. The release was profoundly bad, so I understand your distaste.<br/>
<br/>
The graphics used to be horrible. The artists redid the infantry ...

<r>Good deal, Dave!<br/>
<br/>
He's home sick today. I'm not kidding you, either.... there was a promotion in the early summer where they offered an official WWIIO t-shirt in exchange for (get this): pre-paying for the game for a <U><s>[U]</s>YEAR<e>[/U]</e></U>. We're talking $129, here.<br/>
<br ...

<r>I'm new here, obviously, so forgive my unfamiliarity with your identities. I have a suggestion:<br/>
<br/>
I happened to notice that you offer Matrix and other apparel, here on your site. Now that you are working with WWIIO, you should really, <I><s>[i]</s>really<e>[/i]</e></I> talk to Al "rafter ...

<r>Greetings, fellow wargamers.<br/>

I am wheelz.<br/>
<br/>
Here it is in a nutshell: <br/>
<br/>
WWIIO absolutely blew lung butter when it was released. I personally dumped the game for the next 2 months after release. I was talked into trying it again after a patch, and then I had one of ...
