  1. Robert?? or some one... post some game play.

    Ive heard nothing but best news about this game....... lets see some of it!?

    The game is seriously tight, its not the same ol military stuff you normally see, don't get me wrong, the military games are cool, but this is all about survival against some crazy cartels on a GIGANTIC group of islands. The map is huge, and there are so many things integrated into this game to continue to make it better as you play its insane.

    My new favorite, until GTA 5 anyways........... hopefully GTA 5 steps it up in the online multilayer side, weak on GTA4

    But really, the online gameplay is great with several options, co op or multiplayer, kinda a capture the flag style in a jungle drug cartel type terrain.

    But the co op is like a whole new game. Im posting 4 missions, dont worry, im not giving away the game, this is only the beginning, the map is HUGE!!!!!!

    Heres the beginning

    After that

    Then shit starts to get crazy

    Mission 4

  2. OK

    I have 2 skyrockets, one from the release last november and another from about 2-3 months ago, so a newer build.

    I upgraded both phones to ICS, The first releaseed skyrocket reboots and crashes non stop after the upgrade. I cant even hardley use it as a smart phone anymore with out terrible issues and constant crashing, the other skyrocket (a white one) which was again, purchased only a couple months ago has taken the upgrade flawlessly. Both phones have the same apps, except the one with no problems has more junk/ crap apps on it, games and what not. I only use the other for work so the apps on it are nothing major. Which makes no sense at all. this is either 1- AT&T’s way of making older phone users be forced to buy a whole new phone, and pay the $600-$700 because there for sure wont be an upgrade option available. Which would not suprise me with they’re efforts to force people off unlimited DATA plans, Or a problem with the compatibility of first builds of the skyrocket and ICS not working together. It would not suprise me at all with all the crap I went through with AT&T and having the unlimited plan on my phone if this is they’re way to force unlimited data users to have to purchase another phone to make up for potentially lost dollars. My newer skyrocket runs on a limited data plan, no issues from upgrade, and my unlimited data plan skyrocket, FUCKED, something is fishy to me.

    Heres the kicker, are you skyrocket users with all the problems on a grandfathered unlimited data plan?

    its too weird that I just so happen to own 2 of these and only the one on unlimited data is having the crazy crashing issues.

    What ever it is, makes little sense,

    Both phones are rooted with the exact same software and have had 0 (zero) issues until this upgrade where only ONE of the phones is recieving terrible problems from the upgrade,

    I also completely factory rebooted the phone with the problems today.

    The results is having to reset up the whole phone all over again, with the exact same issues as before, nothing better was noticed after wiping the whole phone and reprogramming to start completely over as if it was a new phone, except it rebooted with the ICS software that started causing all these terrible problems,

  3. thick fleece does the job quick and works well, after I put this small square on the largest surface area on this port, it went from a high pitched tapping noise when you knocked on it to a very low "thud" when tapping on it.

    uses a lot of resin, but quicker than waiting to do 10 layers if fiberglass, i did a strength test on it and tried to chissle it off, no luck, the 1/4/ inch fleece and the pvc pipe had become one.

    EDIT: its not letting post the pic for some reason

  4. How much spl have you gained so far? I've gotta do something similar to my interior panel of m hatch. The port fires right at it and it's super flexible.

    well, my whole build was changing as I did this so i do not know how much it gained, I did it while I had my old 15 was still in and can tell you that it definetly increases the punch of the bass drasticly, seemed to inprove the SQ. that is a big thick piece of carpet, it will absorbe a reasonable amount of sound,

    as I was finishing it, I continued to add more resin, so its now rock solid. and I have a completely different setup now, amp and sub.

    There is a thread somewhere where a guy gained .3 DB from simply removing the carpet off of his box, which can lead to other interesting subjects, but Im talking about the subwoofer box, hehe.

    from reviewing many aspects of this forum, different methods of carpet removal or reinforcment seem to add more DEEBEEZ so thats why I did this. When im done I can go back, add bondo sand down and make it look how I want. its just been dangerously hot out so its slowed the process, the last event I went to I drank 104 oz's of water, 2 16 ounce gaterades and a large sweet tea from mcdonalds, the event was 5 hours long, and I did not have to pee once, it was like I was sweating it out as fast as i could drink it. thats hot

    anything you can do to make something your woofer or port is firing at more rigid to where it wont flex or move, will only give you positive results.

  5. so your saying this deck is functionable like those $1000 decks back in the day?

    Sold me on that, I remember those, they did not even have an amp built in either,

    This is what ive been looking and waiting for, Ive been deck shopping for a while and does not seem like there is much like this out there anymore, unless you go with a $1200+ screen that seems to have a lot of options, but probably not like this. (minus gps and video and other onscreen options.)

    Ive had lots of screens, but just cant interest myself in getting another one for some reason, i just want superior audio control. looks like this is it

  6. What do you run in? USACI, MECA, IASCA, etc.

    None of these events run anywhere near me.

    the last true DB drag show around here was in 2005 i believe,

    Then steve who used to host the DB drag shows started his own MIDWESTSPL

    At this event I ran basic trunk, extreme 1, and top dog

    Last event i ran MSD1 along with those others, which is a local class, they would not let me enter it this time.

  7. Im sure there is lots of info on here, but in a rush I have been getting my car ready all night, and Im going to bed, where I will wake up 4 hours from now and go, Any last minute tips on DB increases? I retuned my box, def sounds better, I just found out my passenger seat does this (pic below), crazy, had the car for a while and just figured this out tonight, I will be reading responses tommorow at the event, so any added suggestions will be greatly appreciated. and I took the pic before I washed my car, so there is no bird shit on the window anymore, which I hear can hurt the SPL score
