I wouldn't call it a game(can't win or lose, no points and no progression or levels, no score or ranks). Yes, it does look good and I plan to buy it. It's due out around Christmas 2006. Be advised that you'll need a good computer as it will be more demanding than Flight Simulator 2004.

Wow... so I guess if you fail to rescue the people you get a " You Lose" banner across the screen and maybe a life indicator showing how many times you get to try again before you have to start all over. Maybe if you do rescue them, you'll be promoted based on how many people you rescue before the timer runs out. Maybe different difficulty levels like injured or drunk victims.  |

I've never heard of the " 2000 video card". Could you tell us more and maybe provide a link? How much does it cost? I'm not sure my computer can handle FSX so I'm interested in getting my computer set up like yours. |

Do you think you can stop being hyperactive long enough to actually answer the question you were asked? What does 2200 refer to? Is it a model number, some benchmark figure, or what? CrashGordon

It refures to graphics. Sorry i took so long to answer. i was busy. I was working on my resarch.
if your religous then i wouldnt consider asking what the resarch is about.
Trust me!
But any way is was refuring 2200 as the graphics card. |

You sure its a graphics card
or do you mean your CPU is 2.2ghz, which has nothing to do with your graphics card, iv never heard of a graphics card called 2200
the earliest grahpics card i know is the nvidia 5200 and the ATI 9200 so if you have a 2200, upgrade 
I have problems with the Demo on a NVidia FX5200 i can run the game on low-medium but i only have 384 ram, so if you have a gig, you would be fine.
Id suggest a ATI 9600 256mb graphics card to run the full game, you can pick one up for around £50 now maybe even cheaper online at ebay or somthing, i used to have this card on my old pc, it ran all the latest games (including bf2) so i would strongly recomend it. |

What make and model is your computer? Processor? Amount of RAM
What is the full designation of your video card(make, model, type of adapter, AGP, PCI. Amount of memory.)?
I think I can speak for most of us when I say, we don't mean to be rude, we are just a technical lot. When someone make a claim about a certain piece of equipment, we like to be able to see and verify for ourselves. We may want to purchase that item. Links to your computer and or video card would also be helpful, we want to share your joy. We just need more details. Tell us what you know, we can research the rest. |

well i i realy know is that it has pentium4 processer with ati graphics(2200 graphics card). Windows xp. Hp pavilion. Thats all i realy know. Im not an expert in computers. im only good at flying.
Im good with machines but terrible with computers.
I havnt been here for a while since i was busy working on my resarch. Im taking a break from my constant thinking. So im open for questions for the next few hours.
Later though iv'e got to carry on. I promised to give results. Thories or facts either way.
My resarch is classified for the next week. It will be displayed at a freethinkers forum. I cannot hint nor tell you here as theres certain rules in this forum that must not be broken.
Peace and prosperity my friend! |
