Maybe nobody is interested but I thought I'd chip in. In terms of deathclaws, they could be one of the easier enemies to go up against with unarmed, they run to you and then you simply have to target the legs, the deathclaw goes down crippled and when it gets back up it tries to run away...

Cheers, thought people had forgotton about this thred. Oh well, it'd probably be too late to fish the code out by now anyway.

Out of interest, does anyone know if troika still retains the rights to open up the source of their games or whether that would fall under the IP of the publishers? If it is their choice to GPL BSD or open up the source would it still be possible at this point in time? I'm thinking more...

Just out of interest here. Did you even read the rest of my post? Edited to be more polite.

Well I've answered that more than once already. I think it's wrong. If people are supposed to abide by a law they should be able to view it. I suspect that there may be exceptions but I cant think of any off the top of my head right now. It may be that it is not wrong to not be able to see a...

A database. You know each of the people on the plane from ID. A fake ID has information on it which is fake. Cross check the information kept from the IDs as much as possible. If an ID says they lived such and such a place, then ring them up and ask if the person actually lives there...

That's fine, but that isn't the case, and what most people still dont seem to be able to latch onto is that the "bunch of ifs and maybes" are valid reasons and there are still others to support it aswell Haven't I already covered this? Tell you what, a more specific example, just for you...

True, true. Identification of dead bodies and possible terrorists isn't one of them though and that alone can give you an edge you didn't have. Couple that with a high possibility to detain or delay others and possible traces and it can be a damn good tool for hunting. On top of that a "whole...

Funnily enough as I pointed out it's not an eventually situation, it *can* help now, just not in the way you seem determined to think. And a trace doesn't have to lead back to anyspecific person or group to help. It can just mean that you pretty much know which of the passengers the...

Although I also feel that laws we should abide by should in no way be kept secret the post here is in some ways wrong and missing part of the point. IDs do not, in such a direct way as the poster is considering, increase security, however in a round-about way they do. If a terrorist blows a...

anyone know how trust worthy theregister.co.uk is?

But he wasn't making silly statements was he? He was pointing out that because the weapons are designed to have the same style field effect rather than descriminatory targetting, then considering the effect they would be violating several laws and would be viewed as highly unethical. Also he...

So people who've spent large portions of their life studying the subject wont know more about it than a director? And then you pull things from what you remember from history lessons? hmmm Isn't that pretty much what they are saying too? That was from Sir Ridley's spokesman. Not...

Just know that they probably feel the same about you.

The "you" there, is that to anyone in general or my post above yours? I just want to make sure before replying.
