Well, speak of the devil and he will materialise on your doorstep. I retract the offer of handing out EU keys to US people because I just got 20 US keys to hand out.

I've started handing these out so check your PM's, but I actually have to do real work today plus sit in meetings and poo poo so I'm not handing them all out at once. If you don't have PM's post your email address and I'll send you your key that way (xthetenth, looking at you).

Same name at hotmail would work great, thanks again!

Edit: Didn't realize the old posts were still getting tracked, that's phone posting for you.

The scary part about dive bombers is that it feels like you can only see the bombs when they're already blowing up around you. You can see the planes doing the screwdriver maneuver on top of you, but if there's an actual bomb model in the game, I have a hard time seeing it when I'm driving my ship.

TB's you can dodge. It's a little frightening when you see a squadron coming towards you but you can take steps to prevent that. Dive bombers, even though they don't do a lot of damage, they can loom right on top of your head and make the air around you start combusting. Scary to think about when they get their AP shells.

Won't it encourage people to stay closer to their AA support though? I see a lot of streams where people take their battleship off the arse end of the map and shoot at max range and I feel like they'd be much more effective if they played aggressively and "tanked" for the rest of their team. A battleship with a cruiser nearby is reasonably safe from torpedo's in the long run and destroyers are squishy.

There are too many stupid people in the world. I'm not saying we should kill them all or anything. Just take the warning labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself.

Just backup your original file beforehand. The res_mods route does not work. On updates you would need to check it was not removed.


You are right on, that works too now. It did not last patch.

On EU, you have to click "News" first and then on the right there's a link that says "Redeem invite code". Not so on the US, there I believe you use the regular signup form? Not sure though.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REDEEM THE CODE ON THE WORLD OF TANKS OR WORLD OF WARPLANES SITES, IT WON'T WORK AND MAY INVALIDATE YOUR CODE COMPLETELY

Starblazers was the recut made for US TV. Yamato became Argo, and the nationalism was cut out. The original was nationalistic as hell though.

The recent remake, Yamato 2199, is rad as hell though.

It was nothing like that though?

Its Battlestar Galactica without Cylon babies, only the other way around because Battlestar Galactica was heavily inspired by SBY. The remake even added this Starbuck-like chick to make the circle complete.

I watched the modern remake and that's the impression I got, especially in the battle against the four carriers. Sure the effects were cool and it was fun to watch, but the underlying tone of the aliens being expansionist, imperialistic Americans was inescapable.

Even with the faux German names I never got the remotest impression they were referring to Nazi Germany, just didn't resemble anything about Nazi Germany at all. The fleets, the battles, the behaviour, the society, it all screamed post-war US to me.
