You giving POE at look over Kill_me???Trying it out myself as well,the choppers are easier to fly

**kill_me{FWD}** · 03-12-2005, 09:13 PM

yes, trying POE a little. graphics are better than in DC, but i like the steering of tanks and choppers in DC better than in POE.

lol maybe both are way too difficult for me, so thats the one which is more difficult doesnt irritates me too much.

DC -> subconscious to brain: "too difficult for ya!"
brain: "ok"

POE -> subconscious to brain: "too difficult for ya!"
brain: "wait, im still tryin"

seriously, i enjoy flying the apache in DC coop games. but in conquest i only manage a take off...

When I use my Log 3 D pro stick, the response time with regard to stick inputs is quicker than my sidewinder,the difference I find between single/
multi player, single easier to HOVER.POE stingers are supposed to hunt pass-
ively but I have yet to witness this factoid.
Are they ever STINGY on the stingers for POE

Sabot= depleated uranium shell heap= ------> Heat high explosive round good for sand/dirt bunkers buildings and vehicles up to light armoured .although a Heat round will penetrate a T55/T62 tank's it will have problems against the T72 and above tanks !!

I don't know where you guys get your information but this is the best I could come up with!

sa·bot
A wooden shoe worn in some European countries.
(sbt) A sandal or shoe having a band of leather or other material across the instep.
A lightweight carrier in which a projectile of a smaller caliber is centered so as to permit firing the projectile within a larger-caliber weapon. The carrier fills the bore of the weapon from which the projectile is fired; it is normally discarded a short distance from the muzzle.

heap
A group of things placed or thrown, one on top of the other: a heap of dirty rags lying in the corner.
Informal. A great deal; a lot. Often used in the plural: We have heaps of homework tonight.
Slang. An old or run-down car.
