I had some real problems in getting those frigates to arrive one-by-one... its easy to take on single beam frigates but a dozen might cause some concern. Also if you play for Kushans use stealth fighters early on to take out enemy collectors/carrier within the sphere.

Cloak generators + captured Kadesh Multibeam Frigates = perma-cloaked weapon of superdeath. If you like to blow stuff up in that mission, just use the proxy method, but substitute salvage corvettes with bombers, capital ships, or whatever you like to use to take down frigates.

All you'll have to deal with later are those cloaked destroyers and heavy cruisers in the center, but they too seem to enjoy chasing proxies across the map as well without paying any attention to the fact that they're being beamraped from all sides.

Starlancer is good, but too damn easy, Freelancer... well, until you finish the plot is good, afer that, is extremly boring.

X2 and X3... well, both of then are good, but tooooo slow, and there are other things to ajust to better the playability, like TS/TP dock on TL and M1, All TS super Freighter class should be of the size of an M6 and have similar shields, M4 weapons capability, use an M6 dock type and re-classed as TM; All TL/M1 should be able to dock 1 to 4 M6/TM on external docks, TLs should have better shields, like 1 to 2 GJ. Add real bombers, which 100 to 175MW shields, 1/2 turrets, 500/700 cargo space, M3 size, M6 speed and manureability. Greatly increase Hull hits to all ships and greadly reduce the chance to any equipment be destroyed. (actualy, in X2, X3, when shields gone, you are dead, even in M1 and M2s, or if you not dead, you will lose a lot of equipment). And fix some OOS combat, for exsample, a fully loaded Phoenix M2 which 32x GPPC, 8x BPPC, 10GJ shield, is killed in OOS in a second by a Single Xenon J! try it

This game also need aferburners like of FS ones. and really better explocions... even FS1 2D retail explocions are better than X3 ones..

If someone are registered in egosoft forums should post this, I cant do it because i banned.

Since I have seen visible turrets in the game I am understandably confused
If you would be so kind as to explain what you are on?

On what? And besides point-defense weaponry? Nexus basically puts all the guns either in the front arc or with 360 degree fire without explanation. A Sathanas with 360 degree fields of fire for its BFReds...you see the problem.

[Prophet]

Umm... no. If you install a weapon on to the ship, the weapon is installed x2 so that there are two guns in the opposite sides of the ship. In a way the weapon has a 360 fof. But the two pyhsical (visible moving) turrets of the weapon have limited fields of fire. Though the AI does usually manouver the ship so that both turrets of the weapon can shoot at the target. Was that what you meant?

[Fury]

ngtm1r's comments makes me wonder if we are even talking about the same game.

[AlphaOne]

Actualy the ships in nexus are more towards forward firing arc. But if you look closely at the game the weapons FoF in nowere near a 360. Also the game tends to put a significant number of weapons on top and on the bottom the the ships where they have a wider coverage. Overall  believe that a Nexus mod for FS or a Fs mod for nexus would be really great. And it would bring 2 of the most aclaimed games toghether to add a new dimension to the respective universes.

There was a fan made B5 flight sim I tried a while ago called "I've found her!" The Newtonian physics made it a bit of a ***** to play well, but it was still good.

[AlphaOne]

yeah i know about that mod too but well you had to have nerves of steel for it. But pretty good nonetheless. If you want to make a mod at least make sure you adapt the "laws" of the game to it.

Why doesnt someone does a Freespace mod for Nexus? It would be incredible.

Because, alas, there's a lack of a Nexus modding community, and in all honesty it doesn't look like CoL is ever going to get finished.

What is COL? There's not a Nexus modding community but I've seen mods for it, there's the Angels Fall First version for Nexus and its incredible so that's a step (I guess).

It wasnt that hard, well for someone who played so much I-war as I did at least. The mod is really good and I'm waiting for its sequel wich it's going to be really cool. And that gave me an idea, why doesnt someone apply newtonian physics in FS?

[Prophet]

why doesnt someone apply newtonian physics in FS?

There already are ways to make fighters act like they are affected by newton. But it wouldn't be very freespacey. And TBP has decided not to adopt newtonian physics because there already are couple newtonian B5 mods/games and you have to admit that flying in freespace physics is fun as hell. I think BSG dudes have expressed desire for newton however. So that mod might be the first one to really use it...

[AlphaOne]

Saw the teasers of the BSG mod and I for one cant wait till its done to get mi hands on it.
