Atmospheric battles would have been FTW

Not to start another one of these debates again

But the way I see it, how the hell are most of the Freespace ships ever going to be able to fly in an atmosphere? I've never seen anything resembling an aerofoil jutting out from a ship. Stabilisers yes, but I wouldn't be pushing it so say they weren't aerofoils. Only ships I can think of that would be realistically atmosphere capable would be the Ulysses and the Perseus.

assuming they're still using conventional aerodynamics......

I felt FS2 had much a better soundtrack over either FS1 or ST. More polished, professional etc but FS1 seems the more fun for it nowadays.

Well..... what else is there?

Yeah I liked FS2, but times changed between the two games (you could say), FS1's was good for the time, I wasn't a fan of it though, however I played it after I finished FS2.

FS1's music was a billion times better than FS2's.

It was spookier, more involving and the individual tracks were longer and more 'complete'.

Though nothing's better than Numbers.

Monolith?

When it comes to FreeSpace 1 I like M8.

I like Chaser (M3), Worlds Apart (M4), Spook (M5), Haunted (M6), Strike (M8), Darkside (M10), the FreeSpace Port Silent Threat menu music (FAIL1), Ancients (FS2_Batt_A01), Genesis (FS2_A), Exodus (FS2_B), Leviticus (FS2_C), Numbers (FS2_D), Joshua (FS2_G), Aquitaine (Aquitaine) and Psamtik (Psampik), although I like the music in both FS1 and FS2 in general.

Snail · **Reply #70 on:** March 28, 2009, 09:49:20 am

Worlds Apart and Monolith are my all-time faves.

Androgeos Exeunt · **Reply #71 on:** March 28, 2009, 09:51:15 am

My all-time favourite used to be only Ancients, but after I heard and extracted everything...

I have another question:

Why did someone claim that the original Silent Threat was a good example of FREDding? No offense, but I was kind of "

" when I read that. Also, the fact that we have ST:R proves the opposite.

Any clues?

Well, it takes a great FREDer to have a wing escort a Faustus for half an hour

I remember someone claiming that it was a good example of FREDding, but I also remember someone claiming the opposite.

I remember a great many people claiming the latter.

Mobius · **Reply #78 on:** March 31, 2009, 05:01:19 pm

You have to consider the radical development in FREDding over the past years. I bet people had more consideration of the original Silent Threat when it was first released.

Galemp · **Reply #79 on:** March 31, 2009, 05:32:58 pm

Not really. I mean look at the user-made missions that were included on the same disc.
