This thread, and reading through a few of the FS1 tables has made me start playing FS1 again.  Now all I need is to find a hack for the registry to make the graphics better...

I knew it was burners! I put burners first and it didnt sound right in my head for some reason.

the last mission of fs1 was too easy. (hell once i went straight for the node in great hunt and that meant only alpha wing v lucifer lol no ursas or thoths).

the last mission of fs2 was bloody hard especially as i wasn't a very good player at the time and i felt much more desperate ("ARGH END THIS MASSACRE ALPHA 1 WE'VE LOST A GAZILLION TRANSPORTS!") and then suddenly "God Speed Pilot!" (well i guess thats said in both games).

totally off topic but i much preferreed the voice of command in fs2.

I'd say FS1 had a greater overall sense of desperation.. in that, as soon as the Lucifer takes down Tombaugh, you are in a constant state of retreat.

But the way the FS2 missions were made, those last few missions felt so insignificant compared to the Sathanas activity.

So, both great! :yes:

"USe the port, Luke!" ;)

I really like the end mission of Freespace 2, now. (I used to really dislike it) Especially considering the Malta came over from the Bastion mission with me, I loved that nice touch. :D

Not to be harsh, but the FSPort cannot bring the feeling of FS1 back despite it has some great features(shielded Lucifer).

Agreed... The port is great, but only for people who don't have FS1... There's just something about playing it in FS1, that makes it better, even if every aspect of it was ported over to FS2...

FS2. The FS ending level was frustraiting at times, without shields and all that jazz, and idiot squad members, although the disorientation I recieved was great. However, the FS2 ending was this massive and pitched dogfight, and an ending attempt to scramble to the node. I did not loose a SINGLE transport in that level, not one. I made sure I got as many out as possible. By the time we had a few left, command just sits up and says "OMG TEH SUPANOVA OMG RUNZORZ!" and I just jacked engine power to full...

BTW, the addon, SUCKED. :mad:

By the looks of the poll results, I think both truly did rock. ;)
