Tides of War

Anyone check this out? Seems like a forum author for this site is "OneShot" seems like I remember that name don't know if this is the same fellah from Iron Wolves check out this site:

Dangerous Waters

Mongoose

I spoek to these guys in Los Angeles when they were presenting their game. At the itme I was acocmpanied by East and whilst there we dropped some names. Don't remember if that name was dropped but I got the impression that although they had played IW before, none of them was from IW.

I could be mistaken though.

Mr Goose,

Drop a silly question on their forums and see where it heads you ..

The silly question: Is DW a game that can be hosted on a dedicated server? If no, thank you. If yes, Thank you even more and can you point me in the right direction to accomplish this.

I remember Oneshot well, He was not a real computer geek but if I remember right he may have had the capital to help fund a project. I know he would share his account with children with cancer and other disabilities. If someone knows more they can correct anything I got wrong. Bottom line is i doubt it's the same guy if it was East would have known.

After viewing some DW forums ....

1. There's contention where to host / play the game. So far it appears that users host via Game Spy. Hence it doesn't appear to be for a dedicated server running 24/7. Someone has to click to start an be a player.

2. Seems to be some heat between virtual players in a squadron and casual players. Friendly fire a problem. Limited players due to some don't play via Gamespy....they host an give out ip. A bit of organization to be worked out by players.

3. Training newbies also a glitch....seems they're sink toys ....lol expecially if not in a virtual squadron....I get this reading between some of the posts / lines.

4. OneShot profile shows this email address:

oneshot@hotmail.de

Mongoose

then it's not the oneshot I know with a .de email. he's lives in the U.S.

Argon,

Are your Oneshot and Capt. JD the same guy?

...or were there just lots of good folks disquised as scoundrels on IW.

flotsam

No Flotsam, there are not the same (but still maybe both are scoundrals.. hehe)

JD has two boys that played aslo

I was just talking to Argon in Team Speak. ... and while we were talking he got an IM from Oneshot .. the Oneshot in question.. the real Oneshot I"m sure Argon will make a followup on that

While I was talking to Tbar about putting a Wolf Pack (Iron Wolves) reunion together, Oneshot sent me an ICQ out of nowhere. I haven't heard from him in six years. i had not tried to contact him and he just ICQed me on a whim. I am taking this as a sign. He was equally shocked when I told him we were just chatting about him. He's semi retired and living in Arizona. now I will start my serch for the rest of the old Wolfpack...

Out of the blue last night I also got an IM from Oz.

I keep in contact with Drizzt and Silvercat, but the rest is before my time.

Maybe Tbar can find his "buddy" Lee Rhodes.
