A Dialogue On FreeSpace 3: Derek Smart & HLP
He's concluding that it's not worth the money, which if he concludes that, someone else might/will as well?

Which leaves us back at "no FS3 in our time."

Not sure that's entirely cause for celebration ;)

He stated that him making the mod was not in everybodies best interest...
But, if Volition would get the hint if they heard the people's support and wishes to :V: to re-hire the original writers and we/ and or I would be VERY interested :D

Well I think that there not being an FS3 is better than one that isn't "FS2 with better graphics," evolution of the design rather than revolution.

There's always other spacesims :)

I'll be convinced when makes the announcement one way or the other, and not before.


Still, hopeful news :)

I'd prefer if he went ahead with his plan of starting a new franchise for his ideas myself - his gameplay style seems so foreign from FS that a new franchise is appropriate.

Hopefully people can help Mr. Smart along to the proper decision by posting in my new Avault thread here:

actualy just be honest, FS3 isn't a very good busness proposition, and if it were it wouldn't be FS3 if the changes he wants so make were made,
and above all we cannot be pleased.

well, you know, you can do that already with current freespace1 or 2. just open FRED, put two nodes on opposite ends of the map, a wing of fighters on one team next to one node and a wing on another team next to the other node, then place a cargo container between the two nodes, give everyone morningstars, and set victory conditions so that if the cargo container reaches one node, one team wins, and if it reaches the other node, the other team wins. Then give everything invulnerable tags, and play in multiplayer.
