sputnik monroe 102 Posted March 11, 2005 I'm going to try this out. My connection isn't very good but I have a friend who plays Everquest2 with otu any problems from this connection some times.   We should all form a clan (Fleet?). Perhaps place a prefix before our ship's names? For example in England HMS stands for His/Her Majesties ship and in the United States USS stands for United States Ship.   Maybe... BIS? Bohemia Interactive Ship? All fear the Bohemian navy  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akira 0 Posted March 11, 2005 Sounds like a good idea... I've managed to get up to level 7 now after a few battles where I got blown up...survived one because I was so beat up my speed dropped to 10Knts....the battle moved away from at 30knts....they left me behind Oh well. Still got the points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sputnik monroe 102 Posted March 11, 2005 I'm downloading now. it'll probably take about 5 to 6 hours. I usually have disconnect problems when downloading huge files. It took me something like 10 tries to download CSLAII, so It might take a day or two before I eventually show up. If all else fails I know some one who can burn it to a CD for me. Â Â Â Looking forward to commanding the BIS Monroe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billabong81 0 Posted March 11, 2005 I just played for the first time tonight and it is really fun, especially for a free game . My ship name is OFP.INFO-Hooah. I'll be around the Training missions area for a while before I get fully accustumed to the game. It is fairly simple though...or so it seems ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr burns 132 Posted March 11, 2005 very cool game, although it´s quite difficult to steer & aim simultaneously but i think this will get better the more i play. my lousy frigate runs under the name "Koeln" .. will rename it to "BIS Koeln" for easier identification Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrZig 0 Posted March 11, 2005 Yes, this game is awesome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billabong81 0 Posted March 11, 2005 I am now 2-1 in fights. The most fun fights are when you get like 20 people in one room and have an all out slugfest . And I have already sunk 3 ships...my plan of world domination shall work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col. Kurtz 0 Posted March 11, 2005 I have given this game a try and have found it rather amusing having now worked out the basic controls. I'm still paddling around the novice pond in H.M.S. Audacity and have had a few scraps, most which involve too many destroyers, and as a frigate, I'm quite outclassed. The only success I have had is against the AI ships in the training mission. Perserverance shall win me through though I hope Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr burns 132 Posted March 11, 2005 awesome indeed, i´m now commanding a destroyer also met shinraiden this morning in the noob area...started a battle with some others and of course our team won the match Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akira 0 Posted March 11, 2005 Lets plan on a weekend game around the Tokyo (or Training if you want...some people can't get in there anymore) Harbor. We can plan on a BIS Blastfest. Anyone up for that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shinRaiden 0 Posted March 11, 2005 ROI... I'm thinking of saving pennies running around in me FF-01 until I can afford to jump to a high-end destroyer or higher, any comments on that? I don't plan on buying every model in between and busting the bank to tweak them all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HotShot 0 Posted March 11, 2005 I downloaded this a few days ago and tried it out, but i didn't particuly like it. I couldn't shoot for shit. I've got the hang of how to rotate guns, etc, but my aim is crap, and never hit anything. Is there any tips for shooting? I saw kilkill on it, but thats the only OFP guy so far (although havn't played it much), the server guy left though and it's way too easy to ban people, just have to right click and they're gone.

Akira 0 Posted March 11, 2005 I'm doing the same thing as you...savin' to jump to a DD that I can pimp out. Highest I think I will go is CA...though I MIGHT try a CV 10 years from now when I have gained enough for one.... EDIT: Hotshot Keep doing the practice games until you get the hang of how many times to hit W or S to get the elevation you want. Also pressing CTRL will speed up the turning of your guns....other than that you are in the same boat as the rest of us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shouldn't you be doing other stuff with your GF rather than play games*? *By "play games" I mean the electronic variety. There are of course fun games you can play with your GF.

Ex-RoNiN 0 Posted March 11, 2005 Anyone up for some games right about now-ish? I'm now banned from the noob area, so I will be mucking about in the big battles near the island in the middle... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrZig 0 Posted March 11, 2005 Sure! My ship is: BIS-Zig Edit: I guess I'm a little late. The clock settings on the forum is wrong I guess Errr - So where are we basing our area of operations? Area 5?10? Where? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
