you mean like Warhawk?Yahtzee Croshaw said:I'm waiting for a game like Crimson Skies where you have to take off at the start, and if you see a nice green field somewhere, you can land, get out, stretch your legs, maybe have a bit of a picnic before returning to the dogfight.
I have to say... I think that is the most awesome online game I have EVER played!!DeadlyYellow said:Ah Unity3d... Out of curiosity, have you ever played Jetpack Brontosaurus?
I would probably cream my pants if I haven't been a part of that community for a long time But thanks for posting it here. VERY much worth the look for anyone out there looking to get the game!Gildan Bladeborn said:I often mourn the current dearth of good space sims, though I generally make a point of mentioning that there actually hasn't been a really good one since Freespace 2, since it's the greatest space sim ever and if you disagree with me you are wrong.
Do you still have the game? If so, good. If not pick it up from Good Old Games for $6 [http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/freespace_2].Xersues said:I miss Freespace. That and X-Wing Vs. Tie fighter were two the of the best space fighters ever made.
Play FS and FS 2 and experience the awesomeness of both. Seriously. The FRED editor was just brilliant move. Best 30 bucks I ever spent on a game back when.
Poor Volition, Inc. When will you make good games again?
Now go here [http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=65038.0], and follow the directions. Welcome to the wonderful world of "Holy crap, there's still an active Freespace 2 community that's been dramatically overhauling the engine and graphics so that it runs on modern operating systems and looks like it could have been released last year instead of over a decade ago?!
You're welcome.
I don't really think that's true. If you look at how many people jumped up and said Battlefront 2, it seems like there's plenty of support for the jump in and out of ship model. Somebody up there referred to 'Grand Theft Spaceship' and that's a perfect analogy. Earning my pilot license in GTA:SA was one of my favorite parts, and after that I flew everywhere.Noelveiga said:And when you decide to streamline it, the on foot stuff will probably prevail, if only because a) it's far more common and popular and b) let's face it, a big part of the fun of space sims is being in space, and you don't actually need to pilot anything to get that.
It's not, it's the awesome mechanics you can add in that make it more fun - in space, once you reach a speed, you don't really need to keep using fuel to travel. Which means you can literally spin a ship round AND FLY BACKWARDS while shooting your pursuers in the face.zauxz said:How is a black void more interesting than a landscape?
