I'd have to say otherwise. I'd be willing to bet that Boing WOULD be willing to admit that you are an idiot at times. XD

What this guy said.

Hey, being witty is easy when other people do it for you.

Last view: 4343 days 		Freespace 2

Classic space combat simulator. Constantly updated with improved graphics by a team of die-hard modders and gamers.
Honestly, if they could legally re-release it, Freespace 2 would give Crysis a run for its money in the eyecandy department and still be able to run at max graphics on more than a handful of computers.

(I will be making a separate thread about this game as well, I'm just putting this here for archive purposes.)

EDIT: apparently, this is no longer free. Good Old Games decided to digitally distribute the game (WITH NO DRM!) for $5.99 - still worth it, but not free.

Freespace 2 is a space combat simulation game. After it was no longer sold, Volition released the rights to the source code to the public. The game is constantly improved upon by modders; the level of detail in the above screenshot is nothing like what it originally was.

A good example is the difference between the previous update and the latest, most notibly the GTF Ulysses:

Previous update (V3.6.9):



Current (V3.6.10):



You can get the installer HERE.

Like all good things, they have their own wiki.

That's a horrible joke.

But it's still valid mathematics, so what the hell.

Here's another faith-in-humanity killing article.

Dude, there must be something psychologically wrong with that kid. There's no way anyone in their right mind would come to the conclusion "Hey, I should shoot them for that!"

...

I have no faith in humanity whatsoever now.

COUGH

I came to generic board via the Fraxy wiki. Around a month after I joined, NightKev (according to him, Arbe) shut down Generic board, and I came over here after a bit.

I enjoy anything with effort. As long as it doesn't kill my ears, it's fine. I'm a big fan of 8-bit music, despite many ignorant retards saying that it's "low quality shit". Seriously. 8 BIT IS A FUCKING PIECE OF FUCKING TRADITIONAL ART THAT SHOULD BE RELISHED BY ALL ELECTRONIC GEEKS.

Agree'd, as long as it has no artifacts in it. You can hear every little 'pop' and 'fizz' in 8-bit, and some people don't seem to realize this.

Latest Posts does that though (- uploader) right?


I'm saying have sort of a latest posts for specific threads, but for each individual user.. Latest posts shows you all the most recent posts. But what if, say, a FRAXY player wanted to have a link to all of the FRAXY threads dealing with bosses he/she made, or even better, a list of links to all the threads that he/she wanted to watch that had only new posts?


I've seen this on many other boards.
It is a very, very good idea.

What all this "losing faith in humanity" jargon? Humanity has always been shit for the most part. The trick is to not have any faith in the first place.


Nietzsche said it first. The question is, how right was he?

Ares heavy fighter, inspired by FreeSpace 2. When you absolutely, positively, have to kill half a dozen capitol ships, accept no substitute.



G3 Goblin, inspired by Jets'n'Guns.



The Knave gunship: When you need firepower, use a gun. When that don't work, use MORE gun.



The Gunhawk. When I said use more gun, this isn't what I had in mind...

as badass as this looks, it requires a retail copy of FreeSpace2 to play, so it's sadly not completely free...

Last I checked, it wasn't...

EDIT: SON OF A BITCH. Since 'Good old Games' re-released it, they've changed the requirements. It USED to be free, though.

2 places you can still get it:

Home of the underdogs page - download is broken at the moment, though.

Good Old Games page - 5.99, no DRM, no strings attached. Worth it if you ask me.

Of course, you could also get it from some other places... but I won't link to those for good reasons. *COUGHpiracyCOUGH*

@james freeman: do you make mecha?

I dabble in it. I've mostly been re-creating mechs from BattleTech (can't put them up now - I'm posting from my laptop). I'll try for something more original, but I'm best at making fighters.

I don't live in the US and I have no idea what the shipping would land on.
