We are talking about a game were lasers are blobs flying slower than even sound, ships travel through a parallel dimension, fighters in a vaccum handle like they fly in atmosphere, nebulae that are thiker than most planetary atmospheres, ships with engines as big as whole buildings fly with a constant 30 km/h ect.... and you say a very manouverable Aeolus is unrealistic (in answer to a joke....)?

Realism... the one thing that FS has never had and will always lack.

Who in God's name would want to ruin a fantastic game like FreeSpace by adding something as terrible as "realism"?

No idea... I don't have anything against realism in games/universes which have been created from scratch with the idea that they will be as realistic as possible. But in FS2 ? It just wouldn't work.

Certainly not me. If I could I would make reality less real 

[Woolie Wool]

I think FreeSpace could at least be made more consistent with itself.

Hey, if you want to hop in your trusty time machine and go back in time to get to do that, be our guest.

while your their get them to fix collision detection 

[Rodo]

and since they are into that... let them know the firing points in the boanerges are screwed

FSU has their own Mantis, go report the bug there instead of complaining in a random topic.

[Woolie Wool]

Those are issues with the original game, not FSU.

[General Battuta]

Right, but they handle the upgrading (U) of FreeSpace (FS), making them FSU.

I've actually heard rumbles that FSU may be considering patching up some perceived tabling errors (in which case I'd have to eat a lot of crow, but would be happy to try them out).

[The E]

Over my cold dead body.

[SpardaSon21]

I'm sure Goober could arrange that.

[The E]

What does he have to do with this?

[SpardaSon21]

You said FSU would be fixing table errors over your cold dead body.  It was a bad joke in any case.

[The E]

Just FYI, Goober has no part in the FSUs decision making process.

[Androgeos Exeunt]

To add on to E's post, it's because he's not a member of the FSU team, so he has no say over what they do.

[-Norbert-]

Oh come on.... are you really serious? What he meant wasn't that Goober could overrule the FSU team. He was joking that Goober might arrange that The E's body would become "cold and dead", in other words have him killed or kill him personally.... Why he singled out Goober for that joke you have to ask him though.

Btw... shoudn't it be "cold, dead body?"

[Androgeos Exeunt]

Goober cannot do that to The E physically because he's not in the same country as The E, and he can't do it on HLP because The E is far too valuable to the support team to kill.

And the only reason why Goober was singled out is because he's EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL, so .
