Title: You know you've played too much Freespace when...
Post by: Turey on September 21, 2006, 07:18:20 pm
-you see a car in the rear view mirror, and hear a voice in your head say, "Bandit on your tail, sir!"

this actually happened to me.

I wanna see what other examples of Freespace overload people have, whether real or imaginary.

I take it this thread has been done before....



(Who am I kidding, of course it has. This is an FS2 fan site and this type of thread is one of the first to pop up.)



That being said, you have played too much Freespace when:

You ride the Indiana Jones ride at DisneyLand/World, and when the great big rock rolls toward you, you scream "DIVE! DIVE! DIVE! HIT YOUR BURNERS, PILOT!"  :lol:

You know you play too much fs2 when you're blasting around alaska on a 4wheeler trying to lose a bunch of other people on 4wheelers and you remember that you can't roll you're fighter(4wheeler), you have limited weapons(passenger with throwables), and no rechargable burners. And the nearest cruiser to hide behind is just a clump of forest :D

You write up the first cousin of Why Descent is Not Good Driver's Training...Why Descent: Freespace is Not Good Driver's Training
You do any modding at all.
You actually remember and were here when INF R1 or the BWO Demo was released.
You worked on any incarnation of Reci.

Don't worry, I never got the welcome beam either. Maybe the welcome beam hadn't been incarnated yet? Well, anyway. you know you've played to much freespace when you make an obscure reference to something in the game and no one knows what you're talking about and then you start to explain it but then you just say "ah, forget it."

I played it enough that I had several nights when I played it in my head while getting to sleep (yes, I could play it in my head consciously), and then dreamt about playing the game, and it was not terribly different from the actual game. :nervous:

I swear, I knew the AI's tricks so through and through that my head just randomized them one after another and I actually didn't even win every time.

or

Or when you want to change the school schedule in this way:
FreeSpace History instead of History
FREDing instead of Math
MODing instead of Physics
Rendering instead of Drawing and Art History
T-V War, Great War and 2nd Great War Briefings and Debriefings instead of Literature
Archaic Vasudan Literature instead of Latin Literature
ETAK Building instead of Learning A Foreign Language
Subspace Physics instead of Geology
TSM instead of Physical Education
And, obviously, Playing FreeSpace during break (that's what I really do on our class' computer)

so you prefer to have 12 maras jump you instead of your wingmen? most I do is tell the dumbies to protect a transport, and watch it explode cause theyre stupid. They make about a 1:1 ratio for kills-to-deaths. I make approximately 50:1 for kills-to-death. Rather funny to have 3% hull and no missiles... and all friendlies are dead. I have to go after the shivans or ntf alone.

Depends of keyboard layout, though.

On Finnish keyboard, time compression is shift+. and decompression is shift+, ...and on different layouts it's different accordingly. Because FS2 (and FSO) don't take layouts into accord, the actual keyboard commands vary slightly from country to country.

When you watch all the cool spaceship fights from bsg, stargate sg1, and stargate atlantis, and just wishing that those were all fs2 ships instead because the combat was similar to that of fs.
I like the stargate atlantis space fights a little too much. It was sort of cool and funny though, they did a robotech huge ass missile swarm of nukes (like 15 of them) and they all got shot down except for one(knowing that they would be, but had no better plan). That one nuke hit a hive ship and had a shockwave extremely similar to dab's 3d shockwaves :)
After that, i was like, wtf, this situation woiuld be a lot better if the daedalus had bombers :nod: Bombers are a lot more tactical at deploying warheads than a capship...bombers=a lot less bombs getting shot down :D

The only things I remember are Luke's son called Ben and a new civilization which was going to defeat the resurrected Empire. Also related were the death of Chewbecca and Solo in battles against this species.

[starwarsnerd] sounds like you're talking about the "Extended Universe" in general, and the "New Jedi Order" in specific. information on the EU can be found here (http://www.starwars.com/eu/), as can most everything star wars. Be warned that if you decide to purchase the novels, I spent at least US$400 on the lot, and that didn't include the comics or the books aimed at younger kids.

By the way, some of the novels are written by very famous authors. For instance, Splinter of the Mind's Eye was written by Alan Dean Foster. [/starwarsnerd]

Spoiler:
yea, Chewie dies saving Anakin Solo. For a long while in that book (Vector Prime, R.A. Salvatore), Han blames Anakin for not turning around. However, he finally realizes that if Anakin waited another few seconds to save Chewie, the whole mess of refugees aboard the Falcon would've died. This all took place because the Yuuzhan Vong placed a dovin basal that pulled the moon of Sernpidal into Sernpidal....

Amigo,check you PMs!!!

There's nothing to explain.The Shivans returned after an amount of time possibly connected to the uncharted node stability,which makes a jump a risk even if you're Shivan.

Maybe because we all hate interrogations? :D

Returning on the topic: you know you have played too much FreeSpace when you write the invitation to your birthday party with the Stop font (this is real, I can even send you a copy) and, for the same party, you order a shipment of Bosch Beer (well... this is not very real, but... :D).

You know you've played too much Freespace 2 when you start thinking you're Alpha 1 during everyday tasks.

What? He can do anything! :nervous:

You know you've played too much freespace when the second you hit the hay there's a film real that starts that your cant get out of you're head and it goes over and over and you just want it to stop and you beat yourself up but you cant get rid of it because you also like watching youself take down a juggernaut every 5 seconds with different fighters/bomber, loadouts and friendly cap ships.....  :hopping:

You know you have played too much FreeSpace when a classmate asks you: "When will FS3 come out?" and your reaction is to throw him in this:

Spartan, don't be a jerk.

Incoming jump signature, newbie configuration.

Setting cannons to target Titan. Commence plasma core insertion.

FIRE!

:welcome:

Welcome to Hard Light Productions!   ;)

Exits are to your right and left, and flamethrowers are under your seat. Be careful, though, as they are sometimes filled with water. If this is the case, try to club someone with the non-working shotguns in the weapon closet. Also, be careful while wandering the ventilation shafts, because sometimes Carl the Shivan lurks in there. If you happen to come across him, just toss him your lunch and hope that it satisfies him. If it doesn’t… pray. In the event of an emergency, you can and will be used as a flotation device.  The Plasma rifles in the forward locker are released only under authorization of an Admin, [V] God, and/or hyperintelligent shade of the color blue. Finally, don't call Kalfireth Thunder. He doesn't like to be reminded of his former schizophrenic personalities.

Carl's going to be happy  ;7

(Yes, I read the tiny text. No, I'm not a n00b for doing so, merely a curious person who knows Spartan's sense of humor)

You know you've played too much Freespace been on Hard Light too long when:

You have an urge to place red lights inside the ceiling vent of your room, with a sign underneath that says: "Beware, Carl's watching".
