and keep this guy away from FSO, it'll just kill him.

A good while is an understatement...  So much has changed around here...

I don't think I've seen you around before, actually... welcome back, traveler.

When you get back, IcyScythe, would you mind telling us how you found this board? We've had a lot of new registrations lately and I'm interested to know where they're coming from.

Found it by going from Gamespy forums to HotU (following links all the way I'd heard about FS2 for free) to Freespace Oracle to here.

[karajorma]

Apparently lots of HotU users end up here cause of the FAQ. Someone posted it on HotU itself as a guide on how to update the game to a full version and as a result loads of people have followed the links in it to here

[Lightspeed]

You have come to the right place.

Prepare to hand over your soul

[Janos]

So can we wait another Shivan theory?

Just kidding.

Kara revealed us this:

Quite a few people in some forums I'm a member of have wondered just how get the HotU version upgraded into full version. I have been reluctant to post links into the FTP and so on, because I was kinda afraid that it could result in too big of a hit - I know people pimp and pimp FS2 to no end in all sci-fi shooters threads there, and the site has 61 000 readers or something, quite a few of them more or less active gamers, so...

So, is it kosher to link them into your FAQ's FTP part? And just confirming, it's also completely in line with the user licence (the one which allows copying)?

Thanks in advance.

[karajorma]

Sure. I've no problem with the FAQ getting a few more hits

Just hope MatthewPapa doesn't have a problem with all the new people wondering over to get the ISOs from him

We should find other places to mirror it, imho

I would certainily agree.  I've been waiting patiently to get a download  of the 3 CD ISOs at GW.  In the meantime I've been playing with the HOTU version upgraded with the VPs and the SCP code.  It really rocks!    Still, I would like to have the 3 CDs in order to work from scratch easier.

2 briefs at least. Boxers drip to much.

Lets see, I found this site from SG, and found SG after watching FreeSpace Watch die and getting up the courage to look and see if the FS2 community was still alive. I found more that what I could have dreamed.

You guys hint too much, if a person goes expecting something surprising its not much of a surprise is it?

[ChronoReverse]

Exactly, everyone should just shut up

[ShadowWolf_IH]

Hey i'm not the one who told him about one thing, or about that guy who was supposed to do that thing, but instead went and saw that one girl.  I never even mentioned that guy or that thing.  Let alone the second thing, which the first guy wasn't even supposed to do, but had to cause of that other guy...you remember the other guy, he flew that one ship.  The ship that had those things on it, and it shot that stuff.

There...that should lose him if he was on our tail.

[FireCrack]

atleast he seems to have taken the advice to stay of the boards.

I dunno, I only played that particular mission a year or so after first completing FS2 (hated the previous one), and I was still more than impressed

I did see this http://forum.gamesradar.com/viewtopic.php?t=56280  in my travels.  But it only got 15 views..perhaps that may be the reason.

A cool find, indeed.... scary to me that Freespace and Freespace 2 are now considered "retro gaming"...  I must be getting old... Retro for me used to be like Atari...
