I can't d/l it for some reason

Difficulty levels of some of the missions may be extreme on Medium and Hard difficulty.  Recommended difficulty level for all missions is based on the FreeSpace 2 default level which is called Easy.

I missed BWO readme completely ( ) and played the demo through on medium level... Not that it was too hard tho...

Hehehe... I thought it was a bit suspicious when they asked us to disable Ahmose... and his escape pod didn't have an engine subsystem.

yeah, I finally could play it! didn't have distrupter weapons, so I tried to kill him... could have killed him a dozen times at least, with all I threw to the pof. sudenly jumped to 43 hull left just as it jumped out
very nice otherwise, didn't have funky squares or anything, tho the cairo do have a couple polys missing/flipped. The docking station in the last mission is gorgeous btw
Only request is that it could have used voices for briefings/CB too

I thought of that too, but that's really picky.

Oh, but, during a few command briefings, the text filled up the text box (and of course, we know there's no scroll). (I still run at 640*480, I prefer 640*480 AA rather than 1024*768.)

Haven`t tried 640x480, hmmm, the fps would probably be much better than 1024x786

Well I still can not play the final mission, even after a reinstall.  So, what happens in the last mission?

[Nuclear1]

Grr..... would download...

That was used in TBP R1 over a year ago.

Ok, I took the time to play it a couple of days ago.  I have to say, I'm impressed with the demo.  The missions were an actual challenge for once.  Throwing swarms of fighters at me isn't a challenge, but doing it from different positions does make it a challenge because I have to race to intercept them.


btw, theres a glitch in the last mission involving the two transports.  They've got the wrong names and they don't go anywhere.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to play with the new beam cannons to see how useful they are.
