JoeyGuppy Posted March 31, 2001 Report Posted March 31, 2001 If your talking about starflight 2 (sf2) well then I'm not going to say anything because starflight and starflight 2 are the reason I started playing computer games. if it were not for those games I would be little buttons on little contollers attached to my little playstation instead of reading 1000 page manuels for gigantic space-sim games that come in big cardboard boxes. If your talk about sfc2 , I don't know what that is. ok good bye
Guest Posted March 31, 2001 Report Posted March 31, 2001 Dude, there is just no way Street Fighter 2 is better then BC3K...I can pull some pretty l33t moves with Vega though.
Kush Posted March 31, 2001 Report Posted March 31, 2001 If you're talking Sarah Furgeson 2, I don't know, that's a hard one. If they've cloned her, I may have to go with Sarah. I'm a sucker for redheads, and her British accent is, well... kinda sexy.
Supreme Cmdr Posted March 31, 2001 Report Posted March 31, 2001 ....am guessing he meant SFC2 (Star Fleet Command 2)

Soback Posted April 1, 2001 Report Posted April 1, 2001 If he meant Star Fleet Command 2 then BC:M is way better, SFC2 is a static game, you just do your missions and advance through the game that way, wheres the fun>? 99% of games out are like that.

Guest Posted April 1, 2001 Report Posted April 1, 2001 Yeah thats exactly how I feel too! In fact over the last couple of years or so BC has saved me loads of money, not buying all the rubbish out of the can mission games about. After playing in a proper dynamic universe setting all the heavily scripted stuff just seems .... well ...... lets say, not what you want.
Supreme Cmdr Posted April 1, 2001 Report Posted April 1, 2001 And with my renewed commitment to streamlining GBS-II for BCM, there are going to be a lot more cool missions for BCM. Especially since IA/TA scenarios are so easy to script. In fact, BCM makes it that much easier to do a whole bunch of cool stuff (create new space, planet regions, models, soundfx, crew pics etc) that were not easily possible in previous BC titles. In fact, if someone sent me a 3DS Max file of a Star Trek or Star Wars ship, I can get it into BCM in under 5 mins flat. Of course, it will take longer for the property owners to threaten to sue us.
Epsilon 5 Posted April 1, 2001 Report Posted April 1, 2001 Do you mean that if I give all the star wars models, I could recreate the battle of Yavin ------------------ Commander Epsilon 5 GCV - StalkerIV, Orion Starstation (CENTRIS) Wraith liason officer, Deterrence Battle Group www.orionfleet.com 'This Far, No Farther!'

Guest Posted April 1, 2001 Report Posted April 1, 2001 Don't know if any of you are sci fi fans, LOL, but I love the David Weber series Mutineers moon, the Armagedon inheritance etc. I could go for one of those Planetoids, but then I'd be able tear every one of you up in one of those!!!

Kush Posted April 3, 2001 Report Posted April 3, 2001 He's mad, MAD I TELL YOU! From what I understand, it will ship with the game. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.I can't wait either. And I wonder if anyone's thought of a conversion, or licensing the engine?
Guest macross Posted April 4, 2001 Report Posted April 4, 2001 I wonder just how large of an object could be imported...it'd be pretty trippy to see Babylon 5, or even (my namesake) the Super Dimensional Fortress Macross (aka the SDF-1) in the game...Heh. It just makes me smile thinking about it...

Supreme Cmdr Posted April 4, 2001 Report Posted April 4, 2001 GBS-2 is not a supported module, so it will not ship with the game. It will only be available for download.
Ben Somerset Posted April 4, 2001 Report Posted April 4, 2001 Speaking of Weber and his universe(s), I'd really like to see a RMN SD firing full broadsides complete with full missile pods at GHQ.
