Title: To be, or not to be...
Post by: 'Captain' Nick Brown on August 22, 2001, 08:25:00 pm
Who would like a complete information resource directory for Freespace? Perhaps a complete compliment of all MODs released that gets updated regularly? What about a new kind of swapmeet called Test Bed where people can submit mods that they don't have time for so that other people can complete their unfinished work? maybe a complete source of Freespace fiction ever week?

Well it's all coming soon...

Sweet  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

E-Mail me when you guys get a site up, and I'll post about it on FSW... (that is unless IceFire posts about it first *looks over shoulder*)

Firstly, I'm proposing that I will actually update the website more then every 3 months (everyday).

Secondly, I'm looking forward to HLP's FanFic, but I'm also looking forward to their update of the MODs section, plus I'm looking forward to their pic of the week getting fixed, shall I go on...

If anyone has any questions about this new site (or if you would like to enlist), feel free to contact me at my temporary email [email protected]

Thanks.

More than just Freespace, we'll also be covering IW2 and miscellaneous others stuff.... although the majority will be from those two games.

Well, of course, Eishtmo used to update it twice a week (or was it every two weeks...), but then it died. I still don't know why.

Things like this have a tendency of dwindling down into nothing as people lose interest. I just hope nothing like that happens here.

I thought it would be out in a double pack with FS3.

Bah, Freelancer has crappy ship design. They're making a very good concept into a terrible game.

I don't think so. The Freelancer ships are more detailled than many ships in FS2...

Oh, when I saw your post, my first thought was that you updated it.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)

HLP has an advantage as I see it, we don't do any one thing to the exclusion of all else. So when the story section isn't being updated then something else will be - there'll never be a quiet moment around here as we have a creative staff and a great community with tons of input from everywhere, we're allways coming up with fresh ideas.

Yeah, but the gameplay will probably suck (click and kill... cooooool! you know joystick won't be supported?) Plus have you seen the design of those ships??? What the hell? I agree it's original. But originality has to be good. FL ships are ridiculous.

Sorry, that was really funny.  Me, update my own site.  Hilarious.

Actually, I used to update it once a week until I lost all passion for it.  HLP should pick up where I left off.

What the community wants is for the MOD archieve to be updated.

By the way, I love HLP.

You see? we do listen, it just takes a little prodding and poking with sticks to get any activity to be admitted/begun  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
