I think the current story REALLY fits the original SQUADRON concept, that later turned out to be Wing Commander.
With a Terran empire fighting Kilrathi in 26xx. Also why the hell would they slow down before 26xx events just 12 days prior to the reveal?
The resemblances to WC are just all a bit...
Here she is one Hellcat V, she is prepped, primed, loaded, locked and ready to kick some ass.
I can still dream that line even today 18 years later, I was in love. Let's just say I never picked Flint :).
So you hinted about working with Mark Hamill being "interesting" can I tempt you to be...
:D Text of a RIS 404 page:
With your carrier destroyed, you drift endlessly through the void...
We're sorry, but the page you're looking for does not exist. Perhaps you'd like to start your mission over.
~~~ it was an ok joke.. freespace on april fools is getting a bit old though I mean who remembers freespace xcept for saga.
Anyways I just read up on the ARENA stuff.. This is fricking awesome news.. so happy to have an xbox 360 now :D
In the Kilrathi saga you can simply toggle invincibility on for wing 1 and 2, in the kilrathi saga game launcher. Your games will be saved as cheater though.
Blablablablabla blaaaaaaa blaaaargh blah.
jeez. The article didn't even say that they like freespace better they just said they found it the most spectaculair (and everyon who has seen that sun getting blown up in FS2 or those damn awesome beam weapons, tend to agree) Yes I still like Wing...
Most spectaculair... and that's true.. but the magazine loves spacesims especially Wing Commander.. I read something about wingcommander every few months.. heck half a year ago they had a 2 page special about Wing Commander
Article is titled Freespace 2 mods It has a picture with the cloakable strakha titled Freespace 2 meets wingcommander? Cool!
here is a rough translation,
Congratulations guys, It's from the PC gameplay, het ultieme spelmagazine
