Well I have been waiting for a full T-V Project to come out. I have played the demo but what happens after the Lunar Republic trades with the Kupiter Belt Alliance? Place your thoughts  here.

[Jeff Vader]

It will come out when it's ready.

[Goober5000]

Well, speculation is fun.

There are some shady characters in the Kuiper Confederacy, and they're more concerned about the color of your money than the color of your flag.  So don't assume the LR's initial success in dealing with them will last.  Don't assume the LR is the only faction to have contacts with them, either.

Now that we've had some major releases..3.6.10, port stuff etc, is this and other projects going to be kickstarted again? It seems reasonable that the more talented people would have some more free time now..well not exactly now (Christmas you know), but at the beginning of next year.

[Goober5000]

Yes.

[Snail]

Me wants to fight Vasudans. Without shields.

[Titan]

Me wants old ships that can be used as civvy things...

Me wants to see a Reliant kick some but...

Me wants to do powerslides in a renamed Enceladus with the gunpoints changed... (no offense, i really like the alpha and beta)

Me wants to play TVWP! 

[Snail]

IMO adding shields made the FS gameplay experience less enjoyable. The early Vasudan killing missions without shields made you actually fear the enemy.

[Titan]

duly noted. How about super weak shields?

[Snail]

Those still recharge though.

[Titan]

hmmm...

The most fun I had playing Freespace was the Freespace 1 demo

[eliex]

I was actually scared of an Anubis in the beginning of the campaign . . .

I really enjoyed the first few missions of FS1. The dogfighting was really intense and more engaging and fast-paced than it was with shields.

[Mongoose]

And I hate playing the first few missions of FS1, because I can't use my usual ignore-the-enemy-until-I-kill-this-thing tactic. Having to worry about every single little stray missile blast or turret blob gets tiresome rather quickly.

Same.
And then there are the user made campaigns that have you without shields. Some of them are so damn sadistic.
I mean, ****, doing bombing runs without shields is like...suicide. For all involved parties. (Bombers, escorts, interceptors, the target).

The TVWP demo wasn't so cruel, though the lack of a targeting computer is kinda mean

[eliex]

At least all the subspace battles I've fought weren't so bad.

Well, in a good "no-shields" type of campaign, they'd warn you about large blasts (such as freighters or warheads) and wouldn't have you intercepting too many shockwave-producing bombs. Unfortunately, most campaigns without shields have you intercepting warheads with BP-style shockwaves...

For me it adds to the experience. When I got shields I just flew in and blew everything up. With the Avenger, fighters died in droves. Without shields it felt I was just another pilot. I actually had to dodge blobs, I had to be more tactical against enemy bombers and fighters, and actually had to run from explosions. With shields however, I fly in, keep pressing Q, and kill everything in sight in seconds.

[Titan]

i liked how the beginning of TVWP (without sensors) left you aware solely of your own situation, and everything else was... disembodied.

Really took away the 'Alpha 1' feeling (i like it like that)
