Pilots attend!

As some of you may know, the 30th of September 2019 is FreeSpace 2's twentieth birthday! :-)

To celebrate this momentous occasion Space Game Junkie is dedicating all of September to FreeSpace 2.

She's looking good for a two decade old game.

I've just realised my life has officially involved freespace and hard light, more than it hasn't.

Anyone else feeling the freespace 🥰

Yeah so I think I should delete my own topic about the same thing that I've submitted literally 4 minutes after this one showed up :P

Excellent news!  That's a good collection of mods too.  (The Scroll of Atankharzim in particular is near and dear to my heart. :D)

I remember the first time I loaded up Freespace (and Freespace 2)  :v-old:
on my WIN 95 computer. When I played the first several missions, I was awestruck and it hit me deeply like I could move mountains and seas with my will! I was crappy at first, (who wasn't!) And I remember the time I got my first kill unassisted...I really perked up until the game got harder. But I kept at it...got better and wanted more...and more. I was hooked! I wanted to leave Earth as it is and go forward hundreds of years in the future and fight for mankind! (and later for the GTVA).  ;)

Yeah them days were good being single!  :D
