I will try to puzzle out the meaning behind these english-like words and form a coherent response to incoherent babbling.

Can you point me to the part of my statement that says anything remotely resembling this? I think not. Go read my post again. Then, when you're sober, read it AGAIN.
ok, this is your idea, but remember to go to the scp forum and tell them to stop what they are doing, before continue loosing their time in an useless project
They're organanized. They're not trying to make FS3. They're adapting an engine that someone else wrote and they're doing it well. Why should anyone make them stop? What they're doing is working.
stop them from trying to adapt the source code of the demo in order to have mods releasble as a stand alone exe
stop randomtiger from trying to upgrade the artwork side of fs2 in order to make the source code changes more evident
Um.. why? See my previous note.
and go also to the b5 mod forum (and the other "big" projects too) to stop them since they are doing a project that they are not able to do...and they still haven't noticed it!!!
See you prove my point. A group of people are focused on something and they're getting it done. They're not making Freespace3. They're making a mod of which they can be proud and other people can enjoy. Notice, however, that they're getting things done. Also, see my response to the SCP thing up top.
and personally i don't see what sense has the daveb post (that i already knew) about this, i mean.....
he was talking about a far FAR bigger project with people that not only didn't exactly knew if they had the capabilities to do it but that they also were starting the project from the end instead of from the beginning
Go read what DaveB said, and this time, let it percolate through your brain. Pay special attention to the bit about "great internet project that never comes to fruition". Then go read what HotSnoJ said about "BIGGEST BESTEST SECRETEST CAMPAIGN EVAR!" Then compare THAT to what DaveB said. If its still not clear, there is no makinng you see sense.
...nonsesical ranting compressed to this line...
And the scp changes are already in progress, indipendently from this fool project, so it will receive benefits from an improoved engine, somehow different from the fs2 one (so technically it won't be "simply" a mod), probably it will also be released as standalone exe.
and if this will happen it will make it more similar to an entire new game than a mod.....(this will be true for ANY mod)
And all that adds up to is... a mod using a tweaked engine. If I make a Quake2 mod using tweaked source code for the Quake2 engine, would that be Quake4? Somehow, I think not. In fact, I'd say it was "a Quake2 mod using a tweaked Quake2 engine".
And what's wrong with building an ideal sequel to the fs2 story? although undoubtly unofficial if the project will be done at an enough good quality level and will have enough (little) success (people like "free games") it will surely become a referring point
There's nothing wrong with Volition creating a sequel to Freespace2. As for "ideal", I refer you back to my earlier comment. You go out and ask each and every member of the world wide Freespace "community" just exactly what they think is "ideal" and then we'll get started straight away. Honest.
...random nonsensical babbling about some non-sequel that wouldn't be freespace anyway removed...
...summary of more nonsensical ranting: the community is fragmentary and disjointed...
i don't think so, community is surely disorganized and fragmented, but not SO disorganized and not SO fragmented, or the SCP project would be never begun pal..........
The SCP, it seems to me, has a core of about 6, maybe 8, main coders, and a bunch of people writing wishlists--the same wishlists people were writing ages back right before FS2 came out. The only difference is now thos people have hope that their wishlists will be implemented by a kindhearted coder. You seem to be very confused on this point.
...random ranting about what would be needed removed. It wasn't cogent to the discussion...
oh and sorry for bad english;)
No problem. I suggest using a text editor with a grammar checker. Write your comment there, check it, then paste it here. It will save me much time in translation.
