Title: Pegasus Stealth Fighter
Post by: Knight Templar on September 21, 2002, 01:58:21 pm
I was watchin' Discovery channel last night, t'was a show bout' Secret Government Planes and stealth fighters. One of the concepts/X-perimental ships was the Pegasus Stealth Fighter that look exactly like our favorite stealthy terran ship, save the uber-thinnes and the gaps in the hull that the FS Pegasus has.

Makes you wonder if some people at :v: work for the government or Watch the discovery channel ;)

of course, knowing my luck... this is old, common knowledge....

I suppose that this show was quite old and Volition just used all the stuff from it to create the GTF Pegassus for Freespace 2. Simple as that.

probably, westwood for exemple based most of their C&C "original" units on discarded army projects ( the mammoth, the orca, etc ).

I still think they're trying to take over the world. There would be nothing new about it.

well, for now there's a lot of mplayer games, even on gamespy, but when it'll be on discount, not sure it will still be popular...
what's wrong with the story btw? her... what was the story again? :p
nah, the story isn't the main thing in renegade, granted :lol:
still it's much more fun than most of the fps I've played lately, the mplayer rocks especially.

OFP is said to be good, but also bugy. dunno what's true and what's not true.

There's a few faults in the mission planners logic in a few bit in Op:f (i.e. one mission involes escorting a convoy.... after a while you are faced with a tank.  i blew this tank on the road, and the convoy trucks were totally unable to go round it, eventually crashing into each other and blowing up - doh!), but no bugs with the games engine, et al.  It is fantastic, but very frustrating.  But it's fun, too.  I'd recommend it.
