  1. Darn it, is there a way i can dual boot without an XP cd? I never installed XP, i only got it with the computer. Or is there a way i can get a CD without buying the OS again?

    You didn't get install disks when you bought the computer?

    Might be like mine, got a Toshiba Satellite laptop about 5 years ago and it came with XP pre-installed. A couple of months ago it would not start up after I came back from vacation and when I popped in the recovery disks it wants to load windows 98. :wall:

    1. bluetooth is a reliable technology, regardless of your aparant inability to pair your headset with your handset.

    My bluetooth system for my cell phone is always shutting off. Sometimes its just a simple press the on button to start it up again, but alot of times I have to turn the phone off and on again to reset the bluetooth module. The problem seems to be when ever I am in an elevator or other shielded (concrete) location is when this happens. To me this is strange, I can understand loosing cell phone reception due to location but as the headset and cell phone are on my ear and belt and their signal should be fine between them no matter my location.

  3. I think the new story line is great, the graphics while my machine is not 100% are great. My only problem with the game is the MP Server options don't allow you the same level of playability as [GR] did. They did not even need to model it the same just provide the same options, you would not see 90% of the complaints from the old GR fans. Plus they still would have been able to include their own newer gametypes while keeping the original ones as well.

    Well, I'm in the beta, and I'm not violating the NDA by saying this: If you're looking for an updated version of [GR], then play [GR] because GRAW ain't that. GRAW isn't OGR3, and GRAW2 isn't OGR4. GRAW is GRAW, and GRAW2 is a follow-up to GRAW. It's not going to be OGR4.

    This dead horse has been beaten like a French whore since GRAW came out.

    Fans of [GR] (me anyway) are not looking for an updated [GR] but rather the functionality of the [GR] interface (MP/Server Choices) for the game types. ( I hope that make sense).

  5. I didn't keep my save games, but are you even sure that would work?

    Have you tried lowering the level to easy for this this mission? I played it very slow and sniped from the edges in a hit and run tactic. Use the UAV to spot the enemy and worked my way in to a position I could take them with little risk to myself. If you go head long in you will find your self out gunned very quickly.

  6. I hope I have posed my question in a way everyone can understand....

    What's the right Balance here?

    Saddly for me it means they are not getting one dime of my money for GR:AW 2 untill I read about it in this forum being everything we wanted in a GR based shooter. Not because I don't think the developer can do it but because I don't think the publisher will let them.

    Another issue for me is if the computer will be able to handle the new game/graphics. I have a AMD 3500+ now and can barely get 20FPS with it set on Med and low. Even if you guys love the new game but it requires more computer I will wait to buy it till I can afford a better machine.

  7. I would like this fixed also. There should also be proper bullet physics applied (gravity, wind, etc.). This would achieve the realism, and prevent that "easy" 1200m kill.....because, it's NOT easy, especially without a spotter.

    ...And if proper physics are applied to bullets, the sniper's ability to lean and shoot has to go as well (as shown in hawsemans sig)

    A gun held at a 45 degree angle will not hit what your aiming at on long range shots. Actually, the same holds true for iron sights as well.

    So if longer range shots become the norm, this should be fixed.

    Sorry this is just not true, a sniper or any good shooter practices with his weapon a lot and knows the aim point is off slightly and adjusts for it. It's not that big a deal. I was a LawEnforcement sniper and practiced hundreds of hours with my weapon under many different conditions. BTW you know its only the aim point thats off right? The bullet still leaves the barrel with the rise and drop following the normal trajectory for that round, gravity is still a constant. GR:AW (iirc) does not take trajectory or angle of the weapons sights in to account which give an unreal feel to the weapon and its handling.

  8. Are there any new patches in the works and if so what will the patch Add/Fix/Alter??

    I put Gr:AW aside after 1.35 as it still is not all that I wanted with Co-Op but it was close, we had too many problems, the biggest for example was hosting 4 people on a server, 3 was ok but 4 would give us dropping problems.
