I also registered on this site and now I feel as if i have cheated on my wife.. tbh, i feel Roberts wont be able to to create anything better than Freelancer/Crossfire.As you said OP, more graphic's ( eye candy ) = more bandwidth = serious bad lag. But with that said, i don't feel that he could improve making a better Freelancer withits current game engine?? Everything has been done, from Elite, Starlancer, X, to Freelancer.The only way forward to be honest, is Mods, add-ons, to further expand …

What is it with the post's on RSI regarding bloody joystick support for Freelancer. Everyone knows that Freelancer is best played with Mouse and Keyboard combo.Meh, they must think they still have an old Atari games console or something. I am very suspicious regarding this site, something doesn't add up.I mean, why now, why the secrecy.....What does he hope to gain ( except money from us oc ). Imo, Crossfire to me IS Freelancer 2 with the continuing storyline. Ok, it may have not have Trent and…

(Quote from Huor)I think you find it was David Braben and Ian Bell, that started the whole Space Sim genre off,With Elite and Frontier:Elite 2. To even suggest that Space Sims by Roberts kept the genre going, is clearly criminal.I got fed up with the dam cockpits of WC, seems to me all he wanted was a great looking cockpit forhis ship design, I prefer what Freelancer/Crossfire offers. Star Citizen is just another WC clone, and to add insult to injury, he put some Freelancer in it, butits STILL …

(Quote from SWAT_OP-R8R)I totally agree. Look, this game that Roberts is making will take 2-3 years to make, and to get the funding for the top end computersto make the game on, and to pay the wages of the Dev team, YOU the populas pay HIM up front... end of story. Please tell me that this doesn't smell of a con..........? Anything can happen in 3 years, WW3, 21/12/12, Homer Simpson made President, or the truth of the matter, companygets sold off, he does a runner and the people under him sell …

(Quote from /V\ichael)Open an XBox, and what do you find................................ a PC PC gaming will never die, it will out surpass ANY game console,, ANY day. I should know, i have had them all, and have sold them all, but guess what ????? I STILL HAVE A FRAGGING PC. 3 laptops ( 1 state of the art ) and this old PB imedia Pro which i am using now, to be exact.*Cygna looks around* But NO game Consoles i can see, as i concider them for KIDS only. Oh hang on, the PS3 addons, A keyboard, a…

(Quote from SWAT_OP-R8R)I think he cancelled his monthly magazine subscription to Computer Active 10 yrs ago OP.He is out of touch, just like all of the politicians around the world. Chris Roberts, the New Messiah of the PC Gaming world, all hail our savior. i don't think...... Cygna

(Quote from /V\ichael)Yes, i would applaud any new Space sim game, no really i would!!But Roberts new game is just Wing Commander re-named as Squadron 42/Space Citizen,all polished up and re-packed bc of as he put it " Due to the new technology, i can now do what i wanted to acheive "And to keep it interesting for others who do not like WC, he has put a bit of his Freelancerfreedom in it to entice us in. Anyone with an ounce of sense can see what he is doing and saying. As you know i have playe…

(Quote from Rexor)Wrong! Take the PS3, You load a game onto its hard drive like a computer, you play online like a computer,.When u have finished playing the game, you un-install the game like a computer.Same goes for the Xbox. Game consoles like PS3 and Xbox, keep little bits of information in its memory ( Registry, if u like )and over time, like a PC it gets corrupted and you have to do a reg clean, but NOT on the PS3.You have to wipe the whole HD in the PS3 and start again ( call this re-ins…

(Quote from /V\ichael)Exactly Mike, i left that detail out, as i thought it was obvious, but you know what console ppl are like, you have to remind them, time and time again... Hands up, all who had a SEGA Mega Drive, and then payed up to £50 a game and sometimes more... Well...they were Game Console's in the right sense.Anything Cartridge based IS a Game Console.....in order of manufacture... Atari 9000 ( i think it was called )NintendoSega Mega Drive" " Genesis, for USASNES others i cant reme…

(Quote from SWAT_OP-R8R)I have always liked egosoft's outlook on the Space Sim front, and this one actually looks a finepiece of work...They know how to keep you interested in their franchise and don't have crowd funding to achieve their goals... Kudos to themI might actually go and buy this !!! Nice find OP.. Rgds Cygna
