Ginthaeriel Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 I'm tired of playing Freespace 2 over and over again Plus, EVE Online's graphics show that, if anything, a good spacesim is pretty badly needed. Anyone concur?

LoneWolf16 Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 Definitely. I had thought that some of nature's journeymen had made men and not made them well, for they imitated humanity so abominably. - Book of Counted Sorrows 'Cause I won't know the man that kills me and I don't know these men I kill but we all wind up on the same side 'cause ain't none of us doin' god's will. - Everlast

Morgoth Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 Well there's Freelancer, and if you're sick of that, you can also wait for Ascaron's Darkstar One (some kind of Freelancer successor...supposed to be an RPG/space shooter hybrid), which shows a lot of potential to rock, but also lots of potential to fail miserably. I guess that's about it. Rain makes everything better.
kalimeeri Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 For sure! But Freespace (1&2) still rocks ... getting time to play them again. I was waiting for the Wing Commander Saga mod to be finished, but haven't found anything recent on it.
Diogo Ribeiro Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 Try playing Escape Velocity: Nova and Space Rangers 2.
mkreku Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 You should look into the X-simulators (X: Gold, X2: The Threat and most recently X3: Reunion) for some newer space simulation goodness. Another game I reviewed once is called Star Wolves. It's a RPG/space-sim hybrid, although not a very good one (in my opinion). Reviews have been varying though. Other than those, I don't know. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
Hurlshort Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 I heard that X3 was actually awesome with the patches. That's probably your best new generation shot.
Darque Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 Meh, I want a MOO4 (preferably one that doesn't suck)
Llyranor Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 MOO is dead. Long live GalCiv! (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
Hurlshort Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 A space sim and a space strategy game are extremely different.
Darque Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 A space sim and a space strategy game are extremely different. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And?
Darque Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 and MOO is not a space sim. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And?
Dark_Raven Posted April 17, 2006 Posted April 17, 2006 Moo? Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.

Dark_Raven Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 Moo? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Of course that was my first impression, but I still had to ask. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
Jumjalum Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 Have you played the X games? They have gotten some great reviews. We now bring you live footage from the World Championship Staring Final.
