KITTEN PICTURE DELIVERED.  REMEMBER, SERENITY PRECEDES SUCCESS.

Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

See what you're missing in #WoD and #Fsquest?

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

Scariest moments:

standard flak

Re: Scariest moments in the Freespace universe.
Standard Flak doesn't scare me more than that hugeass wing of Dragons popping out of nowhere after you blow up that hibernating Manticore and having to AB many many many many many miles on my Aurora being chased.

that

now imagine a wing of Dragons carrying flak guns ...

gotta try this when I get home :P (although they might risk to blow themselves up)

 
Re: Scariest moments in the Freespace universe.
The scariest ever was when the Ravana showed up in The Great Hunt. It was the first time I came up close to a ship of destroyer size.

It was like, everything was normal, our two corvettes just decimated everything that jumped in, until some ****ing monstrous hell of a ship jumped in...

I seriously thought there was some kind of a Boss Battle next, and that this warship...or so it seemed more like a monster...was behind all this racket. It looked just...invincible. I remember doing sort of a suicide run, just to increase the dramatic effect, towards it from under, firing all my lasers, missiles, EVERYTHING...I wanted to KILL THIS THING! It was, however, impossible to stop, given my weapons. So I just...jumped out.

The briefing that followed it didn't seem very dramatic, I expected more of a "we have encountered a gigantic warship earlier, whose intimidating appearance has caused utter terror and shock to our fellow pilots. We are now scrambling all available warships in the vicinity and the surrounding systems and are preparing a mass attack. The capabilities of this warship exceed any of which we have known. The destruction of this target, if and only if indeed we succeed, will deal a devastating blow to the Shivan advance" kind of speech.

However, it was more like a "we've encountered a new type of destroyer. Now get back to work and we'll send wingmen with you. Just destroy that warship." speech, which sort of sounded anti-climactic.

I'm guessing you played FS2 before FS1

Actually, I played FreeSpace 2: Colossus first.
With the rapid increase of FS fan-made campaigns, we're giving the GTVA a harder time with more violence and genocide.

I hate when I being told to fly faster and faster because I am like 1000m away, also, it sounds like a monster talking to me when I use full volume.

Homesick, trying to disable that GTVI Science cruiser. Hell, I never thought a Faustus could kill you repeatedly with a missile launcher!

Re: Scariest moments in the Freespace universe.
I had problems with the NTC Maelstrom's Terran Turrets and it's explosion, and getting killed repeatedly by a Hercules because during jousts the AI will sit there like a turret whlie I AB in a circle non-stop with the enemy not in sight wondering why I'm getting hit even though I'm in a Perseus. And why one Subach HL-7 shot can penetrate a fully-shielded Perseus from the front with full ETS to shields. Insane FS2 campaign is rageworthy at times especially due to having no side thrust. But for scary, still can't beat Slaying Ravana and Into the Lion's Den.

Re: Scariest moments in the Freespace universe.
OK the start of Into the Lion's Den was scary as hell. But I never taught that a tev-corvette....YES a goddamn tev-corvette would try this. It was during Blade Itself. Because I'm a fanatic Ubuntu, I charged that Diomedes-Corvette and nailed that ship with Apocalypse and the forward gunz. But the tevs got better.



One of the scariest POV-moments ever (in my opinion). You are about to shot the crap out of that ship, but then it is rushing towards you, not a fighter, it's a corvette. A CORVETTE. And yes, everyone here got nearly crushed by a Sath, but in my opinion, this was ultimatively unexpected.

EDIT: And then I played the "Ken" mission.....

My first apocalypse, fighting my way through waves of bombers etc ending up 10 k from the node only to hear THAT sentence. . . "Capella has just gone supernova pilots." and immediately telling my charge to go **** itself as I flee in futility at full burn in my Aries :lol:

Transcend is totally freaky when played at night!
