With all these threads around here about the accuracy of the FS2 universe, things like GTVA statistics, populated system numbers, the technicalities of subspace, fleet sizes, and such - is it possible that we have reached the upper limit of  's consideration of the concepts in the game? I mean we can see places where the game is falling down - where our own logic and knowledge is surpassing it. Has the day come? Does it mean we all need to move on? Or are we going to squish as much OJ out of this game as we can until all we are left with is a... squished pulp of a game?

[Styxx]

Well, let's squeeze it as much as we can - and then we start to make it grow by ourselves. That's what fan-made campaigns are for...  

[Top Gun]

I thought we'd nit picked the game to bits long ago.

[wEvil]

maybe V should just give us the license and let US make a game...just like that.

NO profits, NO NDAs, No stupid licenses and IP.

Wing Commander fans are still picking apart that universe and thats been dead for longer than FreeSpace.

[Jabu]

I believe there's still things to know. And if [V] doesn't know, we can always deduce the rest.

Like the likely systems sizes, fleet sizes, from any numbers mentioned in the game.

I remember that one. It was from... umm... (without looking at the link) the topic where someone asked how powerful the Helios really is, right?

Woo, I even got the last post in that topic   (now you know who I am there if you hadn't figured it out before)

I think we've grown whole new trees.  

Example: Volition gave us the 1st orange. We took the orange, ate what was inside, and used the seeds for our own trees.

Agreed, we've built on a base and created a whole functioning universe out of it with myths and legends and all, theres further to go but some may not want to.

It's all good though.  It's the fanbase that ultimately defines where any game goes

I think we'd out-invented   long before I was even here, and whatever we hadn't covered brefore then was quickly filled in with the definitive answer.
