As a joke, that's not very good.
If that was serious, it doesn't even merit a serious response.

And once again Jedie, you are wrong.

Just as I thought, you can't think of a reason. Man made islands are nothing new. The only joke is your limited knowledge. You should get out more, Jedi.

Shadow... welcome to SimHQ, now watch yourself... all of you, discuss but do not turn this into a personal attack or hints on intelligence.

Thank you,

I'm looking forward to the future soldier scenario (in the new GRAW too) but why have the Comanche in it when it was cancelled? Adding thing in that perhaps will be in operation in the future is fine but a helo that will definitely not seems odd.

It's because RAH-66 computer models are readily available and virtually free. Companies have been modeling that thing since the Sega Genesis days.

Why do the work, when it has already been done by someone else.

I still dont' get it.

ArmA doesn't work like other games. "New Direction?" You think they are going to delete all their old work? This is not a complete rewrite of scripts and codes, I wouldn't imagine, they've always built off of previous engines, you can see OFP hiding in the shadows waving to you all over ArmA 2. From ArmA 1 to 2 to OA, its all been one big awesome mod.

So... there is no "new direction", its just putting modern, and futuristic weapons and things on TOP of what you have now. In addition, MODS.

From Operation Realism to the WWII mod, to.. the fidelty mod... Do we ever really play just what they gave us anyway? If we want to play a Mission that currently in the Monday/Thursday mission list... I bet we can do just that (all the materials will be available) about 3 months after Arma 3 is released.

This isn't CoD or MoH, we're not tied to the game they release... they're just having fun with the sand box. Bring your own toys to the sandbox, like we always have.

Yes, because the ability to build an island that small automatically means you could build your own Taiwan, Cuba, or even Greenland. It would obviously be practical, cost-effective, and take limited time. That's why after all we have dozens of islands with populations of millions that are all man-made all over the place.

[admin edit: personal attacks = off]

Next you'll say that since we built a space shuttle, we could easily make an aircraft carrier into a deep-space transport and fly to Jupiter. Or since we've figured out how to broadcast an electron from one location to another, we'll have Star Trek-style transporters tomorrow. Just because you have to know how to stand before you can run doesn't mean that the ability to stand equals winning a marathon.

Okay kids, last warning.

Knock off the personal crap. I don't care who started it. Stop now.

Debate the topics, not attack the individuals.

My question stands, Why does Jedi Master think building a man made island can't be done "(and never will...you can't someday "build" a new island)"? Of course since he thinks he is from outer space, we earthlings shouldn't expect to much from him.
