Now JD, where do you get off saying stuff like this? In this very thread, I asked the OP what he wanted to talk about and he ain't been back since.

As for stuff going on in GameSquad, how many mega pages of text have I typed over there explaining how stuff works? Quite a lot of it has found its way into the Wiki.

Which, in case anybody here is interested, check this out: http://<a href="http://jutland.wikia...s:_Jutland</a>

So I ask again--What do you want to know?

I think he (and I and many others) would like a peek at some of the inner working. Not code, mind you, but jut an idea of what affects what and how. For instance, how hit problabilities are calculated and what are the factors that modify those probabilities.

I just had a look at some of my old SSI naval warfare computer game manuals (Warship and Battlecruiser) and even back in the day that information was provided.

I'm not getting why this should be top secret.

mr. Bullethead! Do you ignore my posts at all?

2jdkbph: I think possible reason for ignoring such requests and not to give detailed vital information may be the fear of criticism of game models

For example mr. Bullethead declares that "computer have not any advantage to player" - which is either lie or misunderstanding which is worse. There are SO MANY examples of that I'm tired to shout

But when I ask detailed question - he prefer to ignore it or just answer common words like "you just got bad luck". Altough there are not many guys who do ask such questions - most are quite happy with "great look"...

I cant believe this stupid arguement is still going on.

How come when its your point of view it has to be true, but when its the majority of everybody elses view its 'fan bias' or company 'secrets' or something else?

Jutland and DG perform remarkably. Most ppl think so. I think so.

But I guess we're all idiots because we're having fun instad of bitching nonstop.

Jeez we get the point you hate the game.

Many people are eating hamburgers with cola - are they also right - just for as many of them? Those who watch stupid TV shows - are they? The majority means nothing. I am the same customer as any other - I also payed my money for the game. I don't hate it! I just want it to become better. And I want to better understanding of game principles - without that I can't get much pleasure from game. And I'm not the only one who theats things the same - about that "stupid question". There are many people concerning about that - I know them. Maybe they just not as active as I am

Most people love pop-music instead of - don't know - King Crimson - which I do. This means neither they're idiots nor me. Most people always content about their lifes, some are not - and these idiots always push history forward

You think, I think - that's not the point. The reality is obvios
