I played the game straight through and would have loved to have played it in full HD. Nothing was broken for me. I think it was on XP and maybe 7. I thought it was a polished game.

Oh there were definitely bugs. There was a game breaking bug in the Kira playthrough, which I'll show in the out-take. TBH I would have preferred a first person game. 3rd person is really hard to get right and few games pull it off IMO.

I'll check it out when I got some free time Was busy with moving recently and it was an epic fail! And so I didn't move I also upgraded my line from ADSL2+ (yes I'm living in the 90s and its not a good thing) to fibre to a POINT! Yay! I can now upload stuff 100x faster.

Great to hear! I hope we'll be seeing more of you Interested in hearing why moving failed.. lol

The colder weather is fast approaching so I will be online more. Lets just say that renting sux and leave it at that otherwise I'll have to vindicate myself later on.

The first insect of the year appeared in my bathroom. It's the one thing I love about the cold months.. no bugs!

Humidity My bathroom ceiling is covered in midges thanks to inadequate ventilation over the last season. More work. Yay

Kara lurking pretty hard there

I just purchased the remaining Legions of Fire books and SG Atlantis Legacy series. Hoping to finish everything this year!

I noticed that with Kara too

Do let me know how good Legions of Fire are. Might have to get stuck into it! I loved the Emperor Cartagia episodes. Hopefully his in the books.

Unlikely since Legions of Fire is set between late Season 5 and A Call to Arms! But there is plenty of Centauri madmen to go around.

Ooo, a B5 remaster is floating around usenet. Now just to figure out how to get it.. (Edit: Got it! It's a bit plastic looking but some great work nonetheless)

I looked into that remaster. It's an upscale of sorts right?

Yes, some digital enhcancements . There is a definite improvement in the character scenes, and somehow even the CGI looks sharper.

I just went through a whole lot of threads that I thought there were replies to... spammers right?

Yes, deleted now

Something of possible interest with B5 - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/13 ... on-project

Yeah I saw that. I've ummed and ahhed over backing it. Money is always an issue for me

I might look at 10% of whats published in that book and I already invested in the [email protected] online.

I'd gladly invest, I'm just always a bit strapped for cash, and when I do get disposal income it usually goes on things I've wanted for a while.

So.. did you back?

(Cause I didn't.. tho I could have opened my wallet tbh)

Nah. As much as I'd like to back another B5 project I really wanna see the series/movies upgraded to FHD or at the very least another spinoff

I'm more interested in what happened behind the scenes for game development. Specifically games I played during the 80s/90s whether it be on consoles or the PC.

There will be no series/spinoff/remaster so long as WB is in control.. I think JMS even said 'not until the old dudes in WB are dead, but then probably so will I ...'

A game though I'm not sure

Officially endorsed, definitely not

But nothing to stop a fan project I suppose

A remaster of I've Found Her with new missions would be nice

Fcuk that! Those old dudes over at WB better be dead soon The lack of consistently good scifi is diminishing.

I just rewatched Dark Matter over several weeks with bro. Season 3 was a blast - why did it get cancelled... WTF!

It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible. Oh my, am I a living meme now? Killjoys is far less entertaining IMO, but they got 2 extra seasons..

Yes But the 3rd season had some good eps.

Welp I've started on Killjoys current season. It's OK so far.. they seem to have hired a new composer or something, I've heard quite a few old school sample libraries.

I'll wait until you finish the show to read your final critique. I'm off sci-fi at the moment unless you count random episodes of x-files in HD. I've been watching pornography ahmm.. I mean Carnival Row and The Boys. Oh and that show, Unbelievable, which was good. Whenever there is uncertainty the truth isn't too far off from a lie.

Yeah The Boys really spoiled me. I've been slugging through Doom Patrol. It just pales in comparison, but I'm getting through it.

Homeworld 3 just got crowdfunded! Me thinks we need a FreeSpace 3 game potentially paying homage to all the communities' hard work on FreeSpace Open. Love to see more stories - not 1 - in this universe

*in this universe

Well, the right team for that already disbanded - Revival Studios. They were geared up to the idea of a spiritual successor to FreeSpace. But Overload didn't sell that well, so the company moved on and they now all mostly work at Voltiion again.

FS3 won't happen so long as Interplay holds the license. Heck, I'm not even sure they still do. The Descent name is now owned by some guy in France.

Happy Birthday Hippo! You may be a man now, but I know you're still a kid at heart.

Still Here Saw your longplays for both FreeSpace 1 and 2... and considering the length of both (14hrs+ combined) I'll have to be selective and watch some of the missions - from my favourite, to the ones I remember being the most challenging (Curse you 'Proving Grounds'), the storyline centric and of course the most thrilling too. I'll post replies to your threads when I'm done. Did you include any random commmentary?

I don't do commentary videos anymore (and if I did it wouldn't be for a longplay), but it's possible I'll do Twitch streams in the future.

Proving Grounds is not hard, it's just seriously broken. I played that half a dozen times, you *cannot* destroy the Tiamat because it simply falls behind the Aquitaine too early, and on higher difficulties (to get more DPS) you fail all the secondary objectives.

Could've sworn asking this question back in the day on VBB, VWBB and HLP, and getting the 'yes you can do it' treatment

I'll have to install vanilla FS2 and give it a go (not sure how I'm gonna get to it tho). I'm convinced the FSOPEN version is bugged. If a mission CANNOT be completed on lower difficulties due to lack of DPS then it is broken!

RIP René Auberjonois

It's not a blind playthrough, and its QuantumDelta, and I'm pretty sure that he changed the ship and weapons in the loadout screen, and the Tiamat is destroyed in 2m flat yikes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1usMc7e_38&t=6m6s

I heard about Euronda I mean René Auberjonois. Great actor! Will be missed
