How about a ressurection of this then, it became a huge thread on the VBB. However, I don't have any ideas, so post away!

This should be at general freespace, I guess.
 
Anyway, you've played it too much when you design ships in ArchSpace with FS names. :D

...When you don't actually have time to make or post in "you know you play FS too much" threads.

Face it. Whilst we have all played FS too much in the past, I'm not sure how many of us still play FS too much. :p

1) Star Wars Geeks pity you because of your Freespace knowledge.
2) You talk to your real life friends about the game :nervous:
3) You print out stickers of Bosch Beer to cover your alcoholic beverages to look 133t.
4) You apply to the government for a name change to Aken Bosch.
5) You thought Interplay might let Volition create Freespace 3
6) You think your college professor should be dressed in uniform and be wearing a big hat to resemble his personality of Aken Bosch.
7) You thought Silent Threat was cool.
8) You tell your children the stories ripped from the old TaS thread on the VBB.
9) You think Will Smith looks like the guy from GTVA command without any hair.
10) You join an online community that is very close to one another and like it :nervous:
11) You think Styxx's Plan is just a cover to have a keg party while all of the forum-goers run for cover.
12) You cover your useless wingmen.
13) You think that woman pilot looks cute.

14) Triumph the Insulting Dog chose you over Lord of the Rings fans to make fun of.
15) You tell your children war stories of your destruction of the Lucifer in the Delta Serpintis-Sol Jump Node.
16) You saved Capella.
17) Three or four years later after the last game of the series was released and after a big screwup on advertising, leaving FS2 barely marketed...theres still a community...and you're part of it.

You know you play FS too much when...
1.)When you start screaming "Shivans!" in the middle of the night when its actually your mom.

2.)When you start telling mom and dad how you evaded wave after wave of Shivan fighters and bombers even though you know they haven't the slightest idae what the hell you are talking about.

3.)When you place a HUD on your car's dashboard that is identical to the one in FreeSpace 2.

4.)When you are caught in traffic jam and you start to imagine you are targeting that ridculously long truck with a lock-on triangle and pretend you are firing off 8 Tornadoes. All these including sound effects.

5.)When you are thinking of installing FreeSpace 2 into your girlfriend's computer. Even if she threatens to break up with you if you do that.

6.)When you paint your house with the background of space with Terran, Vasudan and Shivan ships included.

7.)When you go to Pizza Hut and ask them to make your pizza in the shape of a Ulysses.

8.)When you go to a shopping mall and see a vacuum cleaner.  You then make a fool of yourself by screaming "Vasudans!!! That's a Vasudan destroyer!"

When you still have a part of the VBB on your hard drive... :p

(unfortunately I don't have the original thread of this.....)
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

 
When you continuiosly rock back & forth mumbling
"Can't sleep, Shivans will eat me!"...

(It's true they said so!) :mad2: :mad2: :mad2:
Don't think of it as being outnumbered. Think of it as having a wide target selection !

I did like the story, although its implementation (i.e. the missions) were quite poor. :p

This happened to me in a sense, I was playing Midtown Madness 2 and when the cops started chasing me I pressed the button on my joystick usually assigned to countermeasures in fs2.... :nervous:
