I play SH4 at 83%, I played real life at 100%.

I have to say that comment was assholish of me. Besides which, that kind of attitude about difficulty settings is something I tend to detest in other people. I dunno why I said it like that but I did, and I apologize.

You are a hoot bud. Gosh how does he do it? BTW, point out were I have assumed anything...

Your lectures on how it should be played are a pretty clear indicator that you think it's being played in some other fashion or that I'm being dishonest.
You even came pretty close to outright saying it:

I guess it was the more obvious reason then.

No sir, I asked you to do the research.

I somehow missed it when you where coronated "King of the world". Besides, it's the way of the internet to make an assertion and demand that the other party do the legwork on it, so what was I thinking?

Which has nothing to do with what you're saying.

If you don't think that reality and the game are two different things, please for your sake, see a shrink.
Edit: Oh, I just reread this and think that part of this is a simple misunderstanding... You think I care about the game's definition of good? Wrong. I'm more interested in recreating history than the game's definition of my "score".

TBH, I'm an experienced modder (and a software engineer to boot) and would *love* to take a crack at it. I just don't have the time ATM. In some ways, I really wish I did though.
The thing about game modding, from my experience, is that it's kinda like crack. You get into it, it gets into your skin, and next thing you know, you just have no life. I left that scene behind about a year ago now. Took a girl to snap me out of it (thank god for her). While part of me wishes that I could, there's another part of me that's like this great big neon flashing danger sign. Who knows what the future will bring though. Since it took 11 years for the series to revisit fleetboats, it looks like I have time for that sign's lightbulb to burn out.
Anyways, I'm done going around in circles with you warhawk. I know your type and it's simply not worth my time to argue with you, over a game of all things. Meh...
Just for anyone that's curious to see any of the mod worrk I've done (since it was brought up), see:
