[Operation Ivy]

[George W. Bush]

Thanks!

That show's about 3 years old. I watched it sometimes, but it wasnt all that great.

[waize]

so what if that show is 3 years old, I was thinking of the "download episodes" thing..
I've got to get me an xdsl-line.

Yeah, I was just talking about my experience of the show. Is that okay? (http://www.bitchmakemeasandwich.com/)

[hood]

Download episodes? Are they offered? I'm missing it if they are...

[Dennis G]

Is the show back on?

[waize]

Hood, click missions and choose the other thing that are not credits.
I think there are only 4 episodes available for now, but some mails to the right person would probably fix that.

jamesp: I was not trying to be problematic. Friends again?

[Hman123]

I still cant figure out how to download episodes?

[TriggerPuller]

I have a few VERY good friends that were on that show and let me tell you within the SEAL and Recon community their reps went waaaayy down!!! Bugarin in his day was a fookin real stud!!

[waize]

try this then:

all 15 episodes are there.

[MVSpartan117]

I didn't really like that show...

[mustamato]

I couldn´t get past the first five minutes of it. The music and the talking was
just too much. To have such competent people and still not making a good
show of it... is strange.

[hood]

Thanks for posting them. I only saw through a little bit of the 3rd show because I didn't have a tivo at that point and I had karate lessons at the same time it was on. At least now I can see what happened to the Delta guy.

Not to much spoiler, but: It wasn't any suprise that the SWAT-operators would handle themselfs so good even in RECON and other open-land missions as they did. Highly motivated and great training together with top-notch mental status. Not to mention the fact that they are 'at war' every day, and not every 10 years (if the unit is even deploy into the conflict) like many of the regiments in the military.

[Rilence]

hey ms when i download it in i play i can hear sound but i cant see anything could you help me pls? :cantbeli:

[Johnnyringo]

Download Divx player....

Did anyone else notice that the Force Marine from Bravo had "Recon missions in North Korea" as some of his missions. Not to say that it wouldn't happen (I have a hard time beliving that) but wouldn't a mission like that still be classified?? Unless they were talking about DMZ patrols... but that's not quite North Korea.

Just to put it out there....
What kind of mission into NK for Intel would warrant a ground team, satellites and P-3's are a much safer bet I'm guessing.

[Rilence]

thanks ringo it works :hug: woot

The whole show was bull****, man. After watching the first episode I wanted to put forks through both my eyes. I loved how MILES lasers managed to kick up dirt from the ground and how cameramen would magically appear next to enemies to film them. Not to mention how a highly-trained Force Marine managed to miss several aimed shots at two unmoving targets from about 50-75 yards.

[Johnnyringo]

Could you imagine how boring it would be to watch without the fake impacts and explosions. Miles does suck, I think being behind a bush or vegetation will stop the laser, but it's effect on real ammunition is negligable (for the most part).

[waize]

I thought that since all of you probably didn't got all of the us combat missions, I should share it with Winmx. So that have I done and hoping some grabs this opportunity. My Winmx will be active from now (CET 2100 and tomorrow until CET 1400)
I hope you understand my times, I am not so good with AM and PM's
I have all episodes ready and a good upload speed

[kuttless]

It was a good show. I was looking forward to it when i saw the first preview. The show was accurate. The combat missions were like real Special operation missions.

[Haiw]

And you now that because...you have taken part in how many real SpecOps mission?

[Obergefreiter]

It was a really stupid show. I wouldn't waste my time. Great idea, but bad show.

[MK133]

Scott Halveston should however be ass-f*** by three larger men...he seems to have issues with anyone that is in any way a threat to his selfimage of being the best. ^_^


Hey fuknuts, don't you know he was just killed in Iraq?

You should be assF**cked! :fork:

Dude, he said that way back on 21 February. I highly doubt that anyone would be able to see in to the future that the guy was going to be killed later on.

[MK133]

I retract my statement, I thought this was a new thread.

[Pooga]

I don't know why and I know in real missions this was not the case, but they stunk. Why? Were the MILES gear third-rate? They'd set up an ambush and nobody would go down for about five minutes.

[hood]

The 50+ year old Delta Force guy seemed to be able to take all the enemies out with no problem, so maybe he used his own batteries. My thought on the show was that you're going to take a large amount of guys who train in teams for most of their careers, and put them with people they've never trained with, and with a very shakey command structure. It's just asking for disaster. You do that to anyone, no matter what the contest is and it won't go well.

[sethen]

After nearly nine years in military service, I can honestly say "All Miles gears SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!"

[Pooga]

I would say the MILES gear weirdness was the main problem. They should make a show, reality or not, and just have straight firefights. That'd be completely awesome. You don't even need to really be able to act. Just have nice stunt people and special effects.

[Truthsayer]

Besides, I loved Scott. Notice the japanese smailie beside the statement - I wasn't serious. The show WANTED to portray Scott like this (the producer). Ask any of his friends or check out what he said about in in some forums.

He was a friend of a friend and a very good SEAL-operator.

Filipino from Hawaii and highly decorated especially in Lebanon where he saved the life of a high ranking US official.

HOOD could you please delete the post where one of the members here stated that Scott should have been reemed!!! Highly,highly upset when I read that. Scott is gone now and no reason for people that didnt know him to read it!!

The SWAT lad's got calmer as the show went on, they must of raided 1 to many crystel meth factory's :lol:

[springwheat]

crystal meth is a stimulant. I don't think it would calm anyone down much..

I did not know that, change statement to an E lab :D

[exoninja]

Anyone knows where I can download Combat Missions, or buy its VCDs?

[khukuri]

Just wathced the first 6 episodes.... dude.... What a dissapointment.

About 70 % of the show was pure bs talking and heroic music.
and the missions:

Taking out a tank?


Im sure all theese guys are all that. But from my perpective theres a couple of things I have opinoins on.

For example the hostage rescue with the truck. WTF where they doing when engaging enemy, around the soft skin truck. In real life the dude inside could´ve get killed. Now from my camera perpective I didnt see much, maybe we could blame it on that.


Most of the dissapointment is not due to the guys but do to they production team.


Whats also interesting is how you see that its all about how the group gets along. If they get along or not is critical even for the supersfwarriors.

[HooyahCQB]

I think I taped over most of these. I think the SEAL in Bravo got hosed at the end. Yeah, he wasn't seating the magazine properly my ass. Come on...
