KuostA Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 Dang, I wasnt aware of this until I came upon this thread going back a bit, It really comes as a bit hit. Although I didnt know him as close as many of you guys have, he really has been one heckuva contributer to lomac as a whole. He's one dang good guy. RIP, and best wishes to his family and friends :cry:
SwingKid Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 Deep condolences. Nic was a really great, creative and open-minded enthusiast.

Haele Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 Indeed, the thoughts of myself and my girlfriend are with him and his family. He was a genuinly nice person and lots of fun to work with. He'll be sorely missed.
AnzacPT Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 i was truly shocked when i heard the news... i am a PROUD owner of the extended LOMAC manual and have been trying to convince Nic to produce a new one for FC... he was always nice on his e-mails and was a marking figure in the LOMAC scene with his manual... i have it now in my hands and while i am flipping the pages i cannot help to silently thank him for giving me one of those small pleasures that life has no point without them. i like it so much that about a week ago i sent him an e-mail thanking him again for it. Rest in Peace, Nic. i will remember you. your family will too. thoughts and prayers go with them. in my heart, i know you´re just gone to fly a little higher than us... EDIT: How about creating a new pilot in LOMAC? for the FC release? Please, ED... please do it... he would be so proud...
Dmut Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 very sad news. :( RIP Nicholas Cole. http://www.yorkshiretoday.co.uk/ViewArticle2.aspx?SectionID=55&ArticleID=931306 "There are five dangerous faults which may affect a general: recklessness, which leads to destruction; cowardice, which leads to capture; a hasty temper, which can be provoked by insults; a delicacy of honor which is sensitive to shame; over-solicitude for his men, which exposes him to worry and trouble."

leafer Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 This is really sad indeed. I feel so bad I whined about the manual when I got it. :( Imagine my surprise when I read he died in my country by greedy skipper. RIP Nic, where ever you are... ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
Ice Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 What a tragedy for Nic and everyone else involved. You will be remembered
Skywall23 Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 How about creating a new pilot in LOMAC? for the FC release? Please, ED... please do it... he would be so proud... The add-on will need a patch almost for sure, so ED may implement a new pilot in Nic's honor. Anyway, im not sure if they can still add a new one right now, but if I was you, I would send a pm to Chizh asap.
Haele Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 How about creating a new pilot in LOMAC? for the FC release? Please, ED... please do it... he would be so proud... Sounds like a fitting small tribute to me.
AnzacPT Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 just to ilustrate the kind of guy Nic was... there was a thread long ago on the ubi forums about a Lock On player that was dying of pancreatic cancer... here was Nic´s attitude... "niccole posted Fri January 16 2004 02:01 Perhaps you'd like to give me Robins postal address and we'll Express him a copy of the manual. email me at nic@digital-aspirin.com Nic " on this thread: http://forums.ubi.com/eve/ubb.x?q=Y&a=tpc&s=400102&f=38610606&m=290107151&p=1
Cosmonaut Posted February 13, 2005 Posted February 13, 2005 I have no idea how I missed this tragic news... He will surely be missed by all.. My deepest sympathies and best wishes go out to his family. Rest in peace Nic. Cozmo. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Minimum effort, maximum satisfaction. CDDS Tutorial Version 3. | Main Screen Mods.
