Nick_i_am Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 AC is way too arcady to be considered a flight sim, unless your only prerequisite for defining a game as such is 'I get to fly airplanes'. It's easily the best at what it does though. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgoth Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I should have known that...flight simulator, on an XBox 360. L0LLARZ! I still would love to see a real Wing Commander, a real Freespace, or a real Freelancer sequel. Volition you hear me? Rain makes everything better.

Nick_i_am Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) Sad as it is, Space sims are pretty much a dead genre at the moment, Freelancer was the last 'major' one, and it barely counts as such.

jaguars4ever Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 The best Space Sims are really Space Sims Light, as they're more action-rpgs in space rather than simulations. But that ends up being a good thing thanks to their quality. Freelancer, Descent: Freespace, Freespace 2, X-Wing/Tie Fighter/X-Wing v. Tie Figher/X-Wing Alliance, Tachyon: The Fringe, Privateer 2 were all great space games that used purely arcade physics or arcade physics with pseudo-realistic elements. I've never particularly enjoyed actual simulation based sims like the X series or EVE-online (but's that mostly because they're exercises in tedium more than anything). The only space sims I've liked that have used Newtonian physics are Independence War 1 & 2, and even then the controls were awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I liked the Wing Commander series, especially 3, 4, and 5. For both the story and the gameplay. Freelancer was cool to.

Nick_i_am Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 X3, you son of a Oh yeah, I ignored that on release due to the number of bugs that were being reported, but apparently the steam version has been mostly fixed. That, and the fact that I played the first X and, while I loved the concepts, the actual space sim elements were (like freelancer) lacking. Combat just was not fun.

jaguars4ever Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 @Kor: Okay! @Llyr: Yeah, X3 is more like an economy simulator in space, rather than a space sim. Now I'm indifferent as to whether the physics should be Arcade style or Newtonian as long as they're executed well and/or give you the option to switch between the two ala I-War. Now my preference is for space combat AND trading simulators (I-War series, Privateer series, Freelancer) but I'll even take just space combat simulators (Freespace series, Wing Commander series, X-Wing series, Starlancer). But if it's gonna be just an economy simulation like the X series, then no thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
