"I'm glad they made Rocky Balboa after 20 years. Rocky IV wasn't very conclusive."
List your FreeSpace DisContinuity (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/TroperTales/Discontinuity) experiences here!
To start:
Too bad that Awakenings wasn't ever voice acted. Even worse that the female admiral was quiet during the briefings.
Crossing the Styx was a short, really enjoyable campaign without any 50 minutes wasted with fighting endless Shivan waves in mindblowingly boring missions.
It's so good that BWO has been released in 2004. It would've been ridiculous if we'd still have to wait for it, right?
-
Thank God Silent Threat was the expansion pack to end all expansion packs.
-
I'm glad the Great War-era Vasudans didn't double up on their cruisers like the Terrans and Shivans did. There's really no way you could have improved upon the Aten, it would have just been a waste of table space.
-
I'm glad that command always makes informed decisions,
I'm also glad they only built one colossus when they could have built two for twice the price. But most of all i'm glad the NTF was crushed. . . . . :p
-
what in the HELL is going on here? :wtf:
-

Just make a sarcastic quote that is completely contradictory to the FS universe.
As in "I'm so glad Bosch's motives were revealed at the end of FS2" or "Damn, Millennium was an awesome campaign".
-
I'm so happy that everyone else enjoys SGWP2 as much as I do.
-
man, that was one helluva epic space battle between the sathanas and collossus, wasn't it?
-
Too bad Shivan's didn't achieve their goals and thus they blew up Capella out of frustration.
-
Eh, technically the TVTropes definition of DisContinuity is more like, 'Canon fact/ I like to pretend never existed'; (Dis)respect + Continuity.
Say:
I wonder why exactly the GTVA originally stopped making Prometheus S cannons? Must have been some really rare material they were missing...
-
Ahhh, man. The McCarthy Campaign was the best user-made campaign I ever played.
-

No, it is Topgun.
-
I love how command doesn't make any jump coordinate errors when we're chasing the Iceni.
EDIT- I also love the retail hangar launches and landings you do every mission.
-
Isn't it sad that the Lucifer nuked Earth?
-
Yeah but the GTI rebellion made up for it when 80 HADES turned up and killed the sath fleet.

Yeah, fun times. Thank God that the Battle of Capella didn't end with a supernova. It would've been so lousy and over-the-top.

But you lose Goose in the fourth mission :(
-
That reminds me of the bit where Snipes rides a motorbike with the TSM guy....And it plays *that* song...
What were :v: thinking? :shaking:
-
Whose stupid idea was to make JAD canon?

Why shouldn't it be canon, it follows the story exactly :nod:
-
I appreciate the mood and general seriousness of the Deus Ex Machina campaign
-
I wonder why did they ditch the FS2 Command persona because of racist reasons in the middle of the High Noon mission and replace him with a redneck with a Spanish accent.
-
That bit in JAD6 (the one :v: bought the rights to and rebranded as FS3) where Vice Admiral Chuck Norris fights Aken junior on the exterior of the Hades mk 9 with no spacesuit and lightsabres frankly unbelievable until I opened it in fred8.9.15rc2 and checked the ZEXPs myself.

It wasn't the Hades, you fool. It was on Mustafar as the culmination of the FreeSpace prequel trilogy.
-
T'was after Young Aken attacked the pliot academy on Delta Serpentis, right?
-
Stop stealing my plot :nervous:
/me hurriies to the Gamma Drac patent office before Axem can finish JAD1/4 The Aten Menace........

I am glad takashi was chosen to write FreeSpace 3.
Now if only Derek Smart can get on board as lead coder.

I thought I was rid of Derek Smart :nervous:
-

I have every confidence that Mr. Smart would help produce a streamlined, innovative, and ultimately fun conclusion to the epic FreeSpace trilogy.
-
Indeed. I share your confidence.
-
Anyone remember that campaign that advertised gratuitous use of Derek Smart?
-
You heard that Uwe Boll is going to make a Freespace movie?
-
You heard that Uwe Boll is going to make a Freespace movie?
That's even less funny than Derek Smart's games.
-
Don't you know that FreeSpace is the most popular game ever produced? It won 250 trillion dollars and Volition is now the richest and most powerful entity in the world.
Three billion people are fanboys of it. Everyone in the internet loves it. This is a fact. In fact, Star Wars fans have finally declared that Darth Vader is a noob compared to rebellious Alpha 2.
:p
-
DEM2 was released 1 second ago.
-
I hate this whole thread? I think I got that right?
Good thing I know exactly what is going on at all times.
EDIT: Whew, that was close. I had to double check that nobody else posted while I was writing this.

JAD is a horrble series of campaigns

INFA was never released.
-
I finished Machine Terra last april. . . .
-
Remember that mission when the Persistence gives you a cone of ice cream? It was the climactic subspace mission IIRC.

i will have to agree with you on that one fine sir
(Thats truth, not the spirit of the thread talking)
-
Goober5000 never co-founded the SCP with Inquisitor.
-
Yeah I remember it was Judgefloro and Botenanna back in 99. Months before FS2 was released.
-
Ah yes, how big was the installer back then? 600 KB? I know it was somewhere around there.
-
With the 0.2.1 mediavps it was nearer 800kb.
-
I always loved how fast and nimble the Ursa was in that release. I could run rings around that sluggish Perseus.
-
I was amazed by the fact that the creators of the FS2 cutscenes followed such strict policies when it came to canon.
-
I was shocked at how straight forward and revealing the FS2 cutscenes were, they really left nothing to the imagination.

Especially when Alpha 3 spoiled the ending in the Bastion cutscene.
-
Oh, did she now? She did say that the Shivans were gathering at Capella to sign some sort of peace treaty with the GTVA, right? And that the Bastion was going to be THE vessel where the treaty will be signed.
-
Too bad Shivan's didn't achieve their goals and thus they blew up Capella out of frustration.
Actually i think thats what actually happened
-
Ziame probably meant that they made it bigger, not explode it.
-
I was impressed by how the Phonecia was able to destroy the first Sathanas.
-
Actually my favourite VA line from FS2 is "UP! UP! UP!"

Ah yes, Bosch said that, didn't he?
You know, Bosch played such a critical role in getting the Shivans to make peace with the GTVA. The risks he took - such as smashing beer bottles on their heads - are so great, it makes Alpha 1 look like a wuss.
-
Ah yes, Bosch said that, didn't he?
Actually it was a Vasudan.
In Into the Lions Den, your Vasudan wingman screams "BUP BUP BUP BUP!"
-
Vasudan wingman...? Oh wait, Zero was a Vasudan, right? Or was it Snipes?
-

:rolleyes:
They both were vasudan! Did you forget that it was a PVI operation?!
-
Yeah, and Xinny was an Ancient cloned from DNA found in Altairian mosquitoes.
-
You only find out afterwards. Snipes had genetic surgery to pass himself off as human.
What a twist!
