Teej Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Yeah, but it's like the ATC in F4AF that would have you orbit for spacing until you ran out of fuel even when you were the only plane flying in Korea. ;) "Tank!

GreenGriffon Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 This is classic...159 pages of people waiting for the next beta, making jokes and posting funny internet memes the entire time. I wouldn't exactly call this whining, we're just passing the time and trying to take our mind off the obviously high level of anticipation. If our "complaining" is bothering anyone, it's one lousy thread....please feel free to stop participating in it and move on. The rest of us are actually having a good time and laughing our asses off! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrongHarm Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 TFC is working on a lot more than that! I have further information that I think may be relevant, but if Wags wanted us to know he'd tell us. I'm sure the announcement will be spectacular. For now I'm just going to continue freaking out over how great the Warthog is. It's a good thing that this is Early Access and we've all volunteered to help test and enhance this work in progress... despite the frustrations inherent in the task with even the simplest of software... otherwise people might not understand that this incredibly complex unfinished module is unfinished. /light-hearted sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrongHarm Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Wait, they actually use lithiumcomplex base greases on the GAU-8? That's pretty cool. Frightening, but cool. :P Check out the site. The stuff rocks. I gave my can of Remi Oil away after the first time I used TW-25. It feels like my rails have bearings. After 600 rounds in one session it still feels like that. You'll notice there are a lot of high rate of fire guns on that site listed as using this grease, but you don't see the GAU-8. I was talking to someone at the company about DCS:A-10C and they said they'd just got the Hawg contract.. which trippled the service life. This stuff is so amazing and able to penetrate metal, on recommendation of a Mil-Comm employee, I did the following: I cleaned the bore of my pistol very thoroughly with hoppes. * Saturated it with solvent * Scrubbed it with a phosphor/bronze brush * Resaturated it and let sit for 30minutes * Ran several dozen pads through it until they came out without a spot I then ran a patch with about three dots of TW-25 through the bore. I let it sit for a couple hours then ran some clean patches through it. The patches came out green. I found out from the TW-25 rep that this is because nano sized beads of TW-25 grease get into the pores of the metal and push micro particles of copper and unspent powder out. That's why it feels like there are bearings in my slide rails. There kind of are... white lithium nano bearings. Highly recommended! It comes in a syringe tube that will provide dozens of cleanings for $10. And if you call now... you'll receive... :) sorry for the sales pitch.. I just like this stuff. 1 It's a good thing that this is Early Access and we've all volunteered to help test and enhance this work in progress... despite the frustrations inherent in the task with even the simplest of software... otherwise people might not understand that this incredibly complex unfinished module is unfinished. /light-hearted sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
